Just awesome! And I realized there was one thing I was right about and another I seem to have been wrong: I had a feeling Adaline might like Ian in spite of what he seemed to believe. That's what I understood from the descriptive lines of her behavior whenever they talked, but I could have been reading too much into it xD

What I seem to be wrong about is the nature of Warren/Daniel. I was sure they were a couple already, but his hand being around Daniel in a non romantic way so even a somewhat jealous (yay!) Ian would realize, makes me think otherwise.... Not sure what to feel about Warren yet... sounds like a dork, but there could be more to it...

Loved how you handled Ian's realization of wanting Daniel and not Adeline. His shock at her saying yes was teh funny. His confusion and immediate need to ask her out made a lot of sense, but still, poor Daniel! I am also growing fond of her.

More please :D

I love this! It's really sad how confused Ian is, and how much he's hurting Daniel, but it's also a good look into the confusion of realising you're not straight and the difficulties in coming out to yourself and possibly other people. Add to that the fact that he's falling for someone...

I hope it works out for the boys! Can't wait for the next one.

I get thumbs and the tastiest chapter yet! This girl is spoilt. I LOVE the point this story reached in this chapter, especially the line about the epiphany coming to fast and the comparisons between the two kisses. It seems like you managed to completely confuse Ian, with the jealousy (sorry, what was that Ian? WARREN), the non-het-lust, the seeing Daniel again.

And you are so mean to Dan! I hope he gets retribution of the fluffy ending kind. And that sister of his! There are just too many characters in this who I really enjoy reading, and it seems that you have fun writing them. Review snuggles for you!

Haha yes, well your plot and talent definitely makes up for the sucky summary. How could you just leave me with an ending like this?? Man. Warren is such a creep.

You made them do a kiss! It was a sicky kiss, but a kiss none the less! 0_o I wonder how this will all look in the cold, sober light of day? Loved Dan's reactions to the kiss!

Ahhh, this is really cute. Nothing like the haze of alcohol to get the romance going. But then you would have to be drunk to kiss a vomit-y mouth.

I think you've really nailed it writing high school kids. Very believable. I'll be looking for new chapters each and every time I log on.
