Gosh, this is great stuff. First off, I just love the conceit of it, the-daily-wake-up-in-bed-next-to-Bodie structure. By January 3rd, I chuckled just to see the date start off the next section.
Then, you have all the lovely angsting on Doyle's part, sure Bodie can never feel what he feels, but so in love he's sick with it.
And the smut! Oh my!! You do such a good job of making it hot without going into clinical detail.
And then the resolution. *Sigh* Of course, we knew it was all going to work out in the end, but you brought us there so beautifully. Fav bits?
"Awake, he was a force to be reckoned with, drawing attention whenever he wished; asleep, he was quiet and still, as if hoarding his energy, taking a break from the world." Beautiful description.
"He’d shown a remarkable lack of discipline—just what his school reports had said about him." This just made me laugh.
"Only Bodie could look menacing while nude." What an image!
"Doyle closed his eyes, his heart shuddering." "I love this description! That's what it feels like sometimes."
"He let his hands roam freely on Bodie’s skin, charting the territory that belonged to him." Maybe Ray can have something tattooed! :-)

Thank you so much. It was wonderful.
