Shades of Grey by Midwest-girl

I'm so glad you liked the chapter, June. You know, this chapter I've gotten a lot of comments on my LJ with people doubting that SoG Jack and Ennis can find a happy ending and predicting the story is going to end badly. Oh man! It's starting to freak me out! I'm still sticking by my comment that I love J/E and want only the best for them. It's not going to be easy, but I think they can get there!

Hi - thought I would lob here to say how much I am enjoying Shades of Grey. It intrigues me how these two personalities shine through in a different life setting. That aura that surrounded them in BBM just powers along with them!

This was such a great chapter, my god, the dialogue is so real:
“What can we talk about after that?” Ennis asked, his own voice rough and strained. “The weather? Football? What to have for breakfast?”
Jack smiled. “All right. Maybe we don’t need to talk tonight. Let’s just drink.” He passed the bottle to Ennis, his eye snagged by the blood smeared across Ennis’s fingers.
“Christ, Ennis, what happened to your hand?” Jack sat forward, trying to get a better look in the weak, milky white moonlight. He reached out, his finger passing gently over Ennis’s bruised and swollen knuckles. He wished things between them were different, so he could hold Ennis’s hand, use his mouth to kiss away the pain.
Ennis didn’t answer, just tipped his head back and slugged down a throat full of whiskey. Jack could see the tell-tale scratches on Ennis’s knuckles, knew you didn’t get abrasions like that from hitting a person. Ennis’s fist had gotten up close and personal with something hard and inanimate, Ennis looking to hurt himself, not someone else.
Jack slouched back in his seat with a sigh. “Are we ever going to talk about what happened the other night?” he asked quietly. “Or are we going to keep talking around that kiss?”
I love what you're doing with this story!

Yes!! A huge yes, it was great. I had fogotten the Dante moment... it's so real the way Ennis has all of these feelings about Jack's place in his life but still won't admit what those feelings mean.
Spoiler...
I can't remember the exact quote, but It was something like "Jack's life was Ennis' domain..." so so perfect!

Don't worry Amy! I know you can do it! But I'll tell you what, you could do anything you want with this story. I'm hooked. Of course I want a perfect, happy ending, and I'm sure you can do it, but if you give me something else with this one, I don't think I'd complain! ;D

I know how much you love Jack and Ennis and I don't doubt for a second that it will have a good ending! What do you think of my theory?? Does it make any sense?? Is it even close to what might happen?? ;D
