What a great story and so descriptive...that kiss made my knees go weak!!

I was totally besotted with Tom Sawyer,Huck Finn and Becky Thatcher when I was young and this took me right back there. I think I must reread these stories soon.

Thanks so much Rose! I adored the TV series when I was little and wanted so much to be friends with Huck and Tom. I guess they were my childhood Jack and Ennis!

Thanks Jill! It was a complete accident how this came about, I never intended to be inspired by a TV theme - but there you go! Thanks for reading :)
