OMG. Angst galore... I didn't really have time to read this, but I couldn't resist..

I know you have only just updated but I hope the next chapter's ready - now!!

I just hope that Jack makes Ennis see that it will work between them..Cindy is a bitch and Carrie needs to wake up - he's not interested love..

And I don't know why but the whole time I was reading this I got the feeling someone was watching them..I think Justin knows about them.. He has the t shirt - yes?

You're making a real good job of this story - I will be thinking about it till you update.. Oh the angst is killing me!

Hugs
Julie

Hi Julie, oh I know all about not having to read something and reading it anyway! I cant resist temptation!!!

I am hoping to get started on the next chapter next week, I need a break, cos I cant handle all this angst, and I'm the one writing it!!!! Next chapter will be the pivatol one and then there will be light at the end of the tunnel. You are right about Cindy, she's a bitch. And Carrie has got her head in the clouds, but I cant say I blame her. Sorry the angst is killing you, I know, I wish I didnt have to write it but I dont think it would be that realistic otherwise...

Oh and I need to tell you, noone was watching them.

Thanks Julie for your comment.

Intense...Update please....Shelter is awesome cvernet86 July 16 2008, 09:21:29 UTC
whoa, that ending was intense. one of the best break-up scene that I have ever read in my entire fanfiction career. This chapter was great, it was riveting and it expressed powerful emotions from jack and ennis and I cant wait for the next one. Also, thanks for posting about Shelter the movie because my friend and I watched and fell in love with it. Shelter is a great love story with extremely hot lead actors making out with each other.

Hi cvernet, oh wow, thank you so much for your comment...I'm abit overwhelmed, what a lovely thing to say, I hoped that the break-up would be believable, so I am very glad it worked in that way, not that I enjoyed writing it though! Thank you so so much.

I'm so glad you liked Shelter too, its hard not to like it, its just wonderful in so many ways - hot lead actors making out with each other being one of them! ;)

Thanks for reading.

Great chapter!! I was willing them to pounce on each other in the workshop, but stubborn old Ennis had different ideas :( I love the whole 'break up' discussion, that came across so real I could feel poor Jack's pain.
That Carrie sure is persistent - can't she take a hint??
I feel for Justin too. He clearly has feelings for Ennis but isn't sure what to do. I thought he might have be watching too, but I trust your comment that no-one was. I guess on Camp it can be hard to keep things secret as there always tends to be someone around (we had Night Watchmen who patrolled at the grounds at night - for security reasons and also to dissuade people from being in places they shouldn't be!!)
Can't wait for the next update - I love this story!!

Hi Anna! Thanks for your comment, I would have loved for them to pounce on each other too, but it just wasnt going to be, sadly. And thanks for your comment about the break up, I'm glad it worked, I worked hard on that to make it believable so I'm glad you thought it was. To be honest even though it was hard to write becuase I hate them fighting, it was easy because I have been through this thing myself. Justin is very confused, but he wasnt watching, I'm sorry if I gave that impression. They have been lucky not to be caught out, thats for sure. We had night watchmen on the camp I was on too, I got caught once too! But that's another story!!

I can't. I'm sick too. Ennis has to go after Jack before he gets to cold and goes under. Jesus H Christ how thick in the head can he be. Jack practically on his knees begging him and he lets him go?
Oh, please I don't know how much more drama I can cope with, will somebody please come and shove Ennis's ass after Jack.
Poppy Honey you have to fix this because Ennis is to damn stubborn and afraid to do it alone.
Hugs you extra tight.

Hi Torry, I'm so sorry that I upset you with this chapter, it wasnt intentional, but its just Ennis - he thinks Jack would be better off without him, he thinks he's making it easier on Jack, but we know thats not the case. I have started writing the next chapter and I will try hard to get it out as soon as possible. Please hold on! Thanks so much for reading and commenting.

I am so sorry but I found black type against a dark brown background too hard to read and am very put out that others have managed to read your update and I haven't. I'm not at all computer literate. Can anything be done about this w/o involving too much work?

thanks

Hi, I'm very sorry about the problem you had reading the chapter. I don't know why it suddenly went black on me. But I have fixed it now, so hopefully you won't have problems reading it.
