Oh! You're breaking my heart here! The way you convey their grief - still so raw - great writing!

Oh no!

*mends heart with Flack/Mess schmoop*

Thank you so much for reviewing! It's this raw, gritty grief and messy boy comort that I think best defines this relationship - satisied that it showed through, though I am sorry to break your heart!

*waits eagerly for schmoop*

You're absolutely right - there's something about how they can relate to each other's pain which is just so wonderfully fitting about them as a couple. So I can cope with a little pain now and again!

I know one thing, they should never leave the two of us alone with Lindsay in a room containing sharp objects!!

You converyed Aiden and the way the boys felt about her so perfectly. They were like a great private little club. The boys finding solace in each other's bodies would be much appreciated by her.

I loved the bit about clumsy tongues and shoes and socks.

Or any sort of object, really.
I'm quite resourceful when I want to be.
*eye twitch*

I tried to portray that fact about how "the boys finding solace in each other's bodies would be much apppreciated by her" in the summary of how it was probably Aiden that saved them both. Although, I left it open on purpose because it's entirely possible that they wouldn't be able to see their feelings for each other as they are. Ack. Does that make sense?

Anyways, yeah - I'm glad you liked the socks and shoes and tongue imagery -- I could picture it as this awkward, messy, realistic comfort-fuck -- not some schmoopy sex scene. Glad you liked it :)
