This one caught me by surprise and i loved it ! I think Tom is trying to forget his ordeal with Will and just go on with his life , but Dennis is there for him luckily and wants to help him .  It's sad to see Will hurt Tom , even after death , but as much of a despicable act as it was , Will did love Tom in his own twisted way . No doesn't excuse what he did to him either . The kiss at the end was sweet end to an emotional chapter , nice touch . thumbs up .

I'm glad Tom finally decided to seek out help , Dennis is right in pushing the subject and convincing him to see one . I hope Tom can be free of his brother's influence and can go on with his life . Will should've been a better brother to Tom , I understand he was under a lot of pressure and sattled with responsibility no young person was prepared for , but that is no excuse . Well great chapter and of course thumbs up !

This particular chapter is very curious to me . You mentioned the arsonist that Dennis is investigating,hmmm. For some reason I can’t help but think if it will  play a part of what’s going on with the story. Or it may not and I could be wrong. Just thinking out loud .I loved how Tom talked  about his matchbox tradition , my brother played with them all the time when he was younger . In fact he would buy some for his son when he was younger himself. As for Tom being bold enough to kiss Dennis, all I can say you get your man Tom! Awesome chapter and can’t wait for the next one. !

It was good for my favorite boys to have a talk . That may be just what they needed . Glad Tom was able to bare his soul to Dennis , that might've been what he needed also , and I was surprised to find out Dennis had lost a love . He must've realy loved Jacob , hopefully Tom can help him . And new living arrangements? This soundss promising ! Love it .Love it

Well I guess the date didn’t go as planned for Tom ? I feel so bad for him . Of course it didn’t help that his date was just plain mean to him . I hope Jenna spent the night alone ! So mean to poor Tom . Meanwhile Dennis was too busy chasing Carol to notice how uncomfortable Tom was . As for the talk they will have ,I’m wondering how it turn out . I hope Dennis is indeed the key to toms problems . Loved this and great chapter.

I just love to see Booker in action ! Time and time he shows what a caring human being he is . I like how he comforts Tom . Nurse Booker myhero ! I’m just wondering why would Dennis set Tom up for a date ? Hmm . So great chapter and thumbs up ! And I love guns and roses !

Will got the send off that he deserved  , and Booker was right to be mad at him . Dennis was right when he told Fuller that the others were cowards , but in a way maybe that was a good thing ? Tom would’ve exploded under the pressure of them being there. 

I hope Tom doesn’t decide to do something stupid ! Ahhhh !!!

 What a somber chapter . Dennis just proves what a good friend he is . I’m happy he was able to pull Tom out of his grieving long enough to take care of the funeral arrangements.  I’m glad you added a little humor into this . Seeing as how you described the undertaker was funny . Gonzo , I love that ! I used to watch the muppets, and gonzo was a funny muppet . Anyways,I hope Tom can get  the help he needs . Another great chapter.

What a sad chapter. Tom didn’t deserve what happened to him and he seems confused. One thing I can say is that Dennis is going above and beyond being a good friend to Tom . I hope he can help Hanson . It was so sad to have him trying to clean after his brother. As for Will , well I do feel bad for him killing himself , but he had his own demons to battle , and he lost . Me like . Me like :)
