But his beliefs flew out the door when Killian Murdock turned on the charm. Same with Briley. But Brice was a different kind of boy. He was dorky and sort of weird with his love for comic books and video games, but he made Shannon feel comfortable. And they did wait. And when they finally made love, it was something special.

3. Neverland: Zachariah wasn’t like most people who ended up being a slave. He wasn’t skittish and easily frightened. He was strong. But when Trever had taken him, he did lose his positive outlook on life. Life was a terrible, dark thing. He now knew that to be true. No one had a perfect life. But when he met Elvis, dressed as Peter Pan, he thought, maybe, just maybe, there was a Neverland. And maybe Elvis could take him there.

4.  Pixie Dust:  Elvis had always known that life was not all people made it to be.  Sure you had your ups and down's, but life could be beautiful. He knew this, but still that did not stop the small throbs of anger he felt when he looked to his lover and realized how hard life had been for him.
Elvis was certain though that he could fix it, all it would take was a little faith, trust, and pixie dust for him to fly Zach away.

11. Bet: Killian and Shannon tended to make bets often. And of course, the loser had to give the other a blowjob, or rim job in Shannon’s case. There most common bet was to see who could stay silent the longest. Needless to say, at the end of every bet, Shannon was the one on his knees.

Children:  Quincy had always wanted children, but somehow he had never imagined that he would have so many.  But then again, he had never pictured himself happily married either.

13. Knife: Elvis always wondered why Zachariah was so handy with a knife and seemed to know exactly how to heal every wound he could ever have. What he didn’t know was that Zach had quite a history of inflicting unimaginable wounds.

14.  Sundown:  Elvis would always remember the way Zach looked that night, the last beams of sunlight streaking across his face as the stars appeared from the shadows of the sky.  That was the very same night he had pointed up to those stars, one in particular, the second one to the right of the moon. He explained the way to Neverland, and then forgot as Zach took him there.

15. Thief: Everyone knew, Luca was a known thief. But there was one thing he’d actually bought for himself. He’d saved every penny he got until he could afford it. Killian’s engagement ring.

16.  Room:  The very first night Cove was brought home, Rhett had not slept a wink, unable to take his eyes off of his son. In fact, Cove was forced to sleep in Rhett's room, in Rhett's arms, or else the man would have never gotten any rest.

17. Fight: Cove had always been close to their father, so Kelly had taken to Trever instead. He spent most of his time at the man’s house. But the day they had their first huge fight was a day when Kelly’s heart sank as he had entered the home to hear Ian’s screams.

18:  Alcohol:  Ian had always used drinking as a way to numb his pain, but usually it was easy drinks, such as wine.  But the nights when Kelly would mope around over his unrequited love for Misery, the whiskey came out, for it was the only liquor strong enough to even dull the pain.

19. Hat: Xavier had always thought people from the south were simply unattractive, being every Southern man he’d came across had been either dumb, buck toothed, or overall disgusting. But the second he laid eyes on Dustin McDaniels in that cowboy hat of his, his opinion on the south changed within moments.

20:  Saddle:  Chris had learned very quickly from Dustin, how one would ride if they were a cow boy.  Even if they didn't have one single horse to their name.

21. Voice: Phoenix was guilty of changing his accent to be prominently Irish most of the time but what everyone didn’t know was that even his “normal” voice wasn’t really his. He always covered up his real voice, being the mixture of Hispanic and Celtic accents was a sound he despised with a passion.

24.  Dream:  It was not unusual for Gabriel to wake up in the dead of the night, his hard aching member and his sweat drenched form bringing Gabriel Johnson into his mind.

25. Scream: Kelly had always had a way of screaming easily when he was younger. He saw a bug, he screamed. He fell down, he screamed. And needless to say, that did not go over well with Rhett. The boy had learned to stop screaming as he was now in his teenage years. But none of those childish screams compared to the one he let out when he entered Trever’s slave room to see Ian lying on the floor, bleeding out.
