Chapter 8 (Todd)
I fell asleep after Wendell finished the first chapter. When I wake up, I'm still cuddling on Wendell's lap and he's still fast asleep. When I hug him tighter, I think he's awake because he's rubbing the top of my head. "Morning sleepyhead," he...
Chapter 7 (Wendell)
Present Day The oven timer snaps me out of my daze. I get out of my seat, turn off the oven, and carefully take the pizza out. It's gonna be a while for it to cool down. "It still kinda sounds crazy that we became friends over computer speakers...
Chapter 6 (Todd)
_Seven Years Ago_ Mommy and Daddy have been dragging me around town all day. Going from garage sale to garage sale to garage sale. Yep. Guess it's because it's that time of year when everyone in town sets up a sale to sell some old junk. I say junk...
Chapter 5 (Wendell)
I almost fall asleep again, even if we only have been awake for a few hours. I don't want to move since it's nice to be holding Todd. Or should I say, my rainbow fox. Don't get me wrong, he still has orange fur on him, but it's mostly on his back. I...
Chapter 4 (Todd)
Wendell left the blindfold on me by accident while we slept. Although, it did help me sleep a little bit. I still feel his weight on me. I rub him a bit, feeling all that soft, gray fur. When I do this, he nuzzles his head closer to my chest. I take...
Chapter 3 (Wendell)
After another hour, we get our clothes back on. Todd got a quick shower before we left. I'll admit I was a bit tempted to get in there with him, but I gave him the privacy. The park is almost in the center of town. I get nervous quick because this...
Chapter 2 (Todd)
It's like 3 o'clock in the morning here. I can't fall back asleep. When I look up, Wendell is no where to be found. Where the hell did he go? I think. I don't remember him getting up in the middle of the night. The last thing I remember is going to bed...
Chapter 1 (Todd)
I open my eyes and yawn. My arms are stretched out for some reason. When my vision clears, I see him. I'm holding my best friend close to me. Hold on! What?! What am I doing? I haven't come out yet and yet I'm cuddling with him. I met Wendell about...

My Voice to Use
1 Never has a rickety wooden picnic table been as tense as it was in that moment. Not that the wood was rotting away in the bright sunlight. Not that the bolts and rope holding it all together were rusting or molting. The three occupants upon the...
Toni’s Diary Entry #9 - Knowing Your Place
Pizza Hut is a great place to work. I've been there at least three and a half years (at least during this point as of writing this). I've seen a fair share of fuckshit, and by "fuckshit", I mean some shit that happens so quickly and it's...
