This chapter is definitely worth waiting for (well, not for me anyway, I woke up and the chapter is waiting for me)!
About Nick's slip of tongue, I believe he's crazy in love, but the cynic in me also thinks he did everything with a purpose, I don't mean with a bad motive. I'm just glad his parents' and Jeremy's love have guided him back on track.
Looks like Clyde is still deeply attached to Ennis, can't wait for what will confront Ennis and how he will handle the situation in the next chapter. Where is Ellery, is he supposed to be there with Ennis?
