Your comment was posted, but it wasn’t long enough to count as a review. Reviews need about four complete sentences (at least 250 characters). Try writing another review that explains your thoughts in more detail — the author will appreciate it, and you’ll earn points for it.
I like the idea you were going with this but I found it a little hard to understand. I think if you would add a little more detail to this it could be really great. I did however feel the emotion behind it and that's the most important part to a story like this. Please continue writing(:
Hello, you're only fourteen and still manage to write such intriguing stories! I like the way you express and describe your narrator - you've given him a true personality, meaning he's got both his flaws and claws! I would love to read more of this but you should use microsoft word or something like that to help correct your grammatic errors.. , Also; at many occasions you've written "Him" instead of "He" and "Him's" instead of "His".
Keep up the good work though, I'd love to read more! Just, notify me on my wall if you need something else reviewed!
Oh, almost forgot 3/5 icky spiders for you!
Good Luck & Keep Writing

For your age mate, you've got good grasp on voice. You're dialogue is spot on, but could use something a bit more dynamic.
Don't quit mate.
I love this idea for a story. It's so original and yet homey (at least for me). though others corrected your work, I think you might want to think of maybe putting names in there instead of HIM and SHE... that confused me a little. Another thing you might want to think of doing is adding some more description of what they look like. A few things to let the reader envision what the characters look like. That's always a positive. Other than those though, the story was written very well, and I hope you do continue and i look forward to reading it once you've edited it and written more
I like the idea of the story
However to improve you could add more detail and decription, such as, when you talk about the accidents, and his bleeding leg, you could decribe what the picture looked like, the colour or the blood, describe how he/they felt.
Also, you keep calling him, Him. I think you should get a different name, as it's confusing to the reader
But great plot! Keep writing :')

Hello there.
The use of Him is really weird here. It took me a while to realize what you were trying to do, and to be honest, I don't really like what it is. It's confusing, and just the proper use of 'his', 'he' and 'him' would make the same thing. So this sentence would become: Architecture, Music, and Cooking were his Previous jobs.
But it's your choice, if you want to leave it like that.
Put it in italics instead of quotation marks.
There should be a punctuation sign between the dialogue and the sentence after. Period, comma... Always.
I didn't correct the rest, because I assume you are capable of going through it and doing it yourself.
The story is a little bit fast paced and I think you could take a little bit more time and actually add details about their relationship before and everything... Something that would add to the story in a positive way.
Keep writing!

I agree, this MUST be continued!
its a good story line, you should write more
The idea of the story was excellent. It has some originality to it and I really liked that. But there were some grammar mistakes (Don't forget correct punctuation) that you can see in red. Also a couple things for me didn't flow. Especially the part where the brother aks for money and says that he was the one the tv reporter was talking about. Also you need to add a lot more detail to make this seem like a full complete story. You're story has a lot of potential and I'm sorry if I came out a little harsh.
Also if you have any questions feel free to PM me or write on my wall.
I'd love to read the story after you have edited it(:

I like where you are taking the story, but some more description would be nice. Some of your dialouge is a bit awkward and that date that Him had with She should be described better. You are telling the reader that Him is having a good time but not showing us. I couldn't pinpoint or tell exactly what made it a good moment for Him. Can you describe that scene better and show the moment that Him realized he was having a good time? Show us the moment that they connected, was it something one of them said or what? Some corrections with your dialogue...
Example-
"“Ok cool I be down in a second” is what you put. What you should've put is,
""Ok, cool, I'll be down in a second."
That is just a general error that you made several times that is easy to fix. I think he should see She again... But that is just me. Keep writing.
