this couldve been is a great couldve been

Awesome story! I truely like your writing style. I hope you plan on writing more.

Went to on a whim, becuase so many other BBM fanfic writers are in Chicago this weekend for the slash bash and I am feeling low...until I read your story. I really enjoyed every word. The mood you set - quiet, gritty, hot, and, yes, content - is so different from most BBM fanfic that I found the novelty of it quite arresting. I'd like to think that Jack has taught Ennis to talk a little in six years, but you cover that by emphasizing the reality of a long day's work. They are tired, but these are their lives, the ones they have chosen to build and share with each other. Very fine work. Have you written more BBM fanfic?

Yes, I love it.

I really like where you went with this. I have often wondered what would have happened if Ennis had said "Yeah" at the "..you gonna do this next summer?" scene. This story is great as it is, but I would love to hear more along these lines.

I'm not a really big fan of one shot for the obvious reason that they're always SO short! But I decided to stop and take a look at yours and I'm very surprised and happy! What a lovely story. Although it is AU, their personalities are so canon. It was a perfect Ennis and Jack, and that is difficult to find. I really enjoyed this. I hope you write more, a long story would be great. The end was perfect too, when Ennis wonders what life would be like if he had stayed with Alma. Very thoughtful. Perfect!

I loved reading your chapter! I enjoyed reading your take on Jack And Ennis' story - their poverty, their love, their relationship. Please do indulge us some more with additional chapters!

Wow, liked it - this is also more the way that I would have pictured Jack and Ennis is they had lived together - not like a lotof the stories where they live in fancy dwellings or are all lovey dovey (not that I don't like those stories) but this just seems to me to follow more along with what I think would have happened. Thanks for the story.

Nice pure and simple fic. The simplicity and flow of the story are its greatest strengths. Not everyone's lives are a drama even if they choose a different path.
