OMG, please don't tell me that Pepper actually got raped. that would just be so sad considering how he and Christian had come in their relationship. that was a complete 360 from last week's sweet chapter.

anyway, found the conversation between Christian and his mother very sweet.

You can't end the chapter on that scene! I'm gutted, I want to know what happens next :(

Only one thing, some of the sentences are a bit mixed up. They were understandable and the meaning was completely clear however they were slightly more difficult to read

HOWEVER; The charicterisation of the different people is amazing. Especially the way the parents potrayed their worry, it made them more individual :D And of course their is all the mysteries of Pepper as I have no idea what he's thinking :P

SO CRUEL... but kind of usual for here.

Damn it. I'm in love.

Pepper! D:

Oh yeah you're very cruel. Now I'm dying to know what's wrong with Pepper...

lol anyway great chapter :) Is he cut himself? I can't wait dammit. Update please! :D

I've just started this but I'm so eager to catch up tonight. It's really beautiful.

EEE. Oh gosh. I seen that this updated and I was so excited.

Moar, pl0x. I'm in love with this.

Pepper doesn't seem all that bad now...even if I'm still a smidgen suspicious about him lol. Anyway, good chapter!

That's cute! Aw Pepper, he's so sweet. How did he harm himself? Is he like Christian, eating disorder? I'm curious...

Great chapter! Update please? ;D lol

so that explains Pepper's sudden absence from their school. I thought he got pulled out because he had some fatal disease or something. I'm excited to learn more about him and how he's going to fit in Christian's life.

great chapter by the way :)

Brilliant chapter yet again! :) I'm curious about Pepper and what he was doing in the therapists room though :P

Ahhhh, why does this have so little reviews? Such a shame! It's an amazing story so far, and I can't wait for you to update it. ]

I liked this chapter :) But I still don't know if Pepper is supposed to be a good influence or a bad influence...well I'll just have to wait and find out!

There's still so much mystery in this story XD You still didn't tell us why Christian hurt himself, and did Peppers really sick? Did he has cancer? Heart disease? Or, worst case scenario, HIV? (NOOOOO) Or did he just decided to homeschool? Ohhhh please write more, I really can't wait! XD

wow, the bonding scene between Christian and Avery is so sweet. his parents seriously care more about him than he thought before. i'm looking forward to another one between him and his father.

Anna seemed to toned down from previous descriptions of her. I like this version better. I'm looking forward to Pepper's return and Christian's discharge from the hospital.

great writing from someone who doesn't speak english as a primary language. just a couple mistakes in usage of comma

poor Christian :( Though he's on the road to recovery...it's quite a long road to go. Good chapter!
