This story is absolutely adorable!
I particularly like this line
Patrick sighs and lays face down beside a grinning Pete. He thinks, and says, "If I die, I want you all to kill yourselves to avenge me."
I'm pretty sure that last little section was my favorite.
That or William stealing the cookies.

Wow. The language in this piece comes out sounding so...well, clean would be one way to describe it (maybe not the best word for it. I am desperately in need of a bigger vocabulary). From what I've seen so far, your writing never fails to be eloquent and elegantly simple and it's effortless to fall into the storyline because your pacing and style is just...guh. Brilliant. There were zero clunky/jagged phrases throughout the entire piece.
I adore the humor you use in this - it's so gentle yet completely realistic, like listening to people who really love each other bitch and moan just because they know they can get away with it; it's intimate, that's what it is. Wow.
Perfect example:
Gabe throws a pillow at William's head and huffs, starts muttering to himself in Spanish, something about "tonto" and "feo," something Travis will later ( ... )

first off, this is the first comment of yours that i will comment back to (because i have a habit of replying to every one i receive) and already all i can think to say is just thank you.
i appreciate everything you said about the pace because sometimes i feel like i am going too fast or too slow and i reread things after i've written them, thinking no one is going to think it flows or sounds right. i drive myself crazy trying to avoid clunky phrases so i'm glad it worked ( ... )
