Awwww man! I would have been so excited with how beautiful everything was if I didn't know the reason why Justin rushed this. Justin, what did you do??? smh. Gah, if he breaks Scarlett's heart, he better get a shitload of karma for it. Those vows better mean something. I'm just saying. Now I'd really like to know how he and Zooey are going to work out. Damn. This is torture, update soon pretty please. Wonderful update by the way. Seems like the calm before the storm, or most likely hurricane, since those are worse. lol
I love how you make me wish your characters were real so I could reach in and smack sense into them. haha
Author's Response: Justin's reasoning did kind of make it all bittersweet, didn't it? But I think that makes it a little interesting, you kind of see little hints of his own possible self-destruction, which I think is important. But hey, maybe he won't actually do anything *too* wrong! I am so sorry for torturing you, but yeah, you may want to get used to it. There's no light at the end of this tunnel for a while lol. But thank you so much for reading! And I try to make my characters as real as possible for that exact reason, so you can relate and love and hate and all that good stuff, so I'm so glad you do!
Author's Response: Yeah... the wedding kind of causes a whole cosmic shift or something, doesn't it. But I'll make it all all right, I promise!
Author's Response: Aww, well thank you! I think that's my favorite chapter up to now, as well. I definitely felt like a little drama was necessary between Zooey and Justin, so I'm glad you liked it! And Drake just makes everything better, doesn't he? lol Thanks for the review, Jazzy Jaz!
Well Shit (pardon my French). I love this story. And I have a feeling that these 'fireworks' are just the beginning (well, obviously, because the story would be over if the fireworks were the ending...)
Forgive me. I'm over-tired. Wonderful update :)
Author's Response: As much "French" as I use, I'm the last person to pardon someone, no worries lol. But thank you! You're very right, this is just the beginning of the show, so to speak. More fireworks, maybe even a volcano eruption are on their way! Thanks for reviewing, though, even in your over-tiredness. I 'preciate it!
Author's Response: No, I got you! I just say Janis Ian whenever I'm referring to Lizzy, that's who she'll always be to me lol. But she's gorgeous and quirky, I like the comparison! I've never seen Party Down, so I'mma have to check that out. Merci, madame!
Author's Response: LOL more is on its way, I promise! Thanks for reading, doll!
Author's Response: Damn, I didn't mean for Justin to hurt your feelings, just Zooey's! lol But I think he's just a little frustrated, he didn't mean to go there. I like Scarlett too, so don't worry about her wedding. You can worry about Justin and Zooey kissing and making up, though, I can't promise that... lol. Either way, I appreciate your review, mama! I'll try to make it easier on you next time.
So like the song and the chapter matched a little too well. I just can't believe it went that way. And poor Scarlett seems like the perfect girlfriend/wife-to-be. I'd hate to see her get hurt. And how about how harsh Justin was with Zooey?! That shit's for the birds man. I like how she handles herself though.
And this line right here: 'You can't just take it back, you fuckin said it. If that's how you feel, own that shit' is so me...if you can't come at me with real talk, don't talk to me. Hehe, that's how my momma describes my level for bullshit. Anywho, another fab chapter honey. I hope he can work something out with Zooey, you know once she's done being pissed.
Author's Response: Well, not gonna lie, I wrote the chapter after listening to the song a few too many times, so that could be why lol. But thanks! And yeah, Scarlett is all oblivious and innocent in this, which sucks, but I think it's safe to say Justin will have to pay his dues eventually. I had to make sure Zooey could hold her own, though, I'm glad you were feelin' it! I like no-bullshit people, so you and Zooey are good with me lol. Annnyway, thanks so much for the review! Love hearing from you!
Author's Response: Yay, I like when you guys get fired up about stuff! Lots of exclamation points are always good lol! But yeah, I think they'd both be a lot less frustrated if they could own up to whatever they're feeling. But since they can't, there will be much more drama that ensues... And you'll just have to wait and see what's gonna happen. Slowly, but surely, you will get your answers lol. But thank you so much for your review, you're pretty much the shiznit yourself! :love
Author's Response: Lmao I kind of feel bad that my Justins piss you off so much, but I'll take that as a compliment. He is on some shit, but I promise this Justin won't be Dirrty Laundry-ish... at least not purposely lol. Even I couldn't take anymore of that dude. That Justin was trifling and juvenile and just all around annoying. I think this one is (slightly) more mature, though perhaps a little misguided. I dunno. I'll try not to stress you out, but... as usual, I can't guarantee anything. Stick it out with me, though?
Author's Response: What a fantastic compliment! I'm definitely aiming for a natural progression here, so I really, really appreciate you saying that. And I had a lot of working titles for the story, so I'm glad that you can see where Yellow fits in. Thank you for the review, boo!
Author's Response: I'm loving you for reading! Thanks so much for the review, doll.
Author's Response: Aww, so glad you're reading! And I love Janis Ian! So if that's who you're seeing, I'm good with that lol. Thanks for the review!
Author's Response: Yay, Jaz! To be quite honest, I had no knowledge of that song until this moment, but I'm looking at the lyrics and seeing how much they relate, and I like! The title kinda came about because a friend of mine said she thought of the color yellow whenever she saw me lol. I liked that concept, so I ran with it! But yeah, now I have something new to reference... Thanks!
OMG! It was NOT innocent! They are lying to themselves and are in denial if they really believe that. And you see? This is going down a bad bad road. I can just see Scarlett getting upset and asking Jusitn who Zooey is. Ugh. lol.
I'm loving this but the complexity of Justin and Zooey's situation is making me nervous. It would have been too easy to have him single. No, he had to be engaged on the verge of marriage to meet the one woman who could fuck it all up for him. haha. I loved the conversation between them, especially when they were talking about relationships. I kind of don't want Zooey to be a homewrecker because I really love Scarlett in this. And unless she changes and becomes evil, I'll feel bad if Justin and Zooey hook up. But don't get me wrong, I still want them to hook up. haha. Point is, it looks like someone will eventually get hurt.
loved it! More soon please!Author's Response: Haha, tell 'em how you feel, girl! But no, you're right, it's quickly becoming, like, the opposite of innocent lol. And I'm glad the complicatedness of it all is making you nervous, that's pretty much what I'm going for lol. I couldn't make it easy, that would be boring for all of us! But I will do my best to not make it hurt too badly, even if Zooey happens to become a homewrecker. We'll see, we'll see. In the meantime, thank you so much for the review, darlin'!
