It broke my heart a little to write this. The boys were just so sad and broken, but I loved writing it. I'm glad you loved reading it. Thanks for commenting!
It wasn't a strictly not happy ending, which I understand is not the same, but it seemed like an appropriate way to end the story. The reality of it was for me, thinking about how to end it...they wouldn't have lived happily ever after. In this way, Chris can move on with his life, hopefully feeling as though he has value as a person. Thanks for commenting, bb!!
You did warn us, but still very sad. That Zach took care of both of Chris' rapists was a surprise I wasn't expecting. Zach sacrificing his life so Chris could have a better one is heart-breakingly tragic, but I choose to hope that Chris will take that sacrifice and the lessons Zach taught him and fight for the life he deserves. You're a wonderful writer - this story was absolutely riveting. I look forward to reading more of your stories.
*grins* I'm glad there was a bit of surprise left at the end for you. I also like to think that Chris now has this wide new world opened to him, and that he will take full advantage of what Zach has given to him...it makes the ending bittersweet to me. I'm truly glad you enjoyed the story and that it kept you interested all the way through! Thanks, bb!
