BAWWW. I love how Chris is so in love with Zach, cos that's how I write him too. Zach is so stupid. XP *kicks Zach*

Thanks for sharing! Hope you write more! :D

Yeah, Zach's kind of a douche in this. I like to think he's just dense =P. Thank YOU for reading. I'm definitely considering a sequel. =)

This was beautiful - it especially hit home with me because (except for the pills) it's basically what my recently-now-ex boyfriend did to me for 8 months.

I didn't know how much I needed to read it, thanks :)

Thank you. =) I'm sorry for the ex situation, but I'm glad you enjoyed this.

Awww! *sniffles* Poor Chris :( Unrequited!Pinto is so painful, but always awesome. You handled it beautifully :)

Thank you, I actually wasn't sure if I was able to get this right because I've never experienced this first hand but have known a couple people with similar situations.

:(
sad, except i read the last sentence as "he was done playing video games" and kinda snickered.

Yeah, I've done the same thing before, several times. I'll be reading something deep and sad and then be like "Wait, did that say penis? Oh! it's pants!"
Thanks for reading =)
