NO WAY! NO FREAKIN WAY! Wow the end of part one?? LOOKING FORWARD FOR PART TWO! Nope, no one gets over JC so easily... ;) But these lines here:
“I can see it on your face,” he pressed, stepping closer. I caught a whiff of his cologne. It slapped around my senses. He was too close. I took a step back. “Is it Lou? Is he doing something to make you uncomfortable?”
YES! Lou is so freakin CREEPY! *shudders* But glad that Mack and her dad are spending time together, even if he's not feeling that well, I had to do a refresher because I forgot a few stuff..but now I'm back on track! :D
So glad you UPDATED! LOL Looking forward for more, maybe Mack DOES need a break..away from everything.
Despite her relationship with JC at the current moment, it would have been nice if she could have tried to engage him. Even if she didn't want to tell him about the source of her discomfort. But she has valid reasons for being angry, and I don't want to take away from that.
It's clear that JC cares about her enough, because he noticed something else was up. He did try and make amends. I do wonder whether their relationship can be fixed. It definitely changes the dynamic when and if they have to work together again.
Glad you returned, Mack!
Author's Response:
Yeahhh, her being angry and being stubborn as hell isn't a good combination for her. Throw being rejected atop of that and she's not thinkingly clearly so all the things she should be doing is something that goes completley out the window. It takes her a long while to learn her lessons and she has a penchant for running around and torturing herself rather than going for the obvious and less troublesome solution.
JC cares about her a lot more than the haze of anger clouding her eyes will allow her to see. The question is how long she'll allow the haze to stay, or else she'll self-destruct in the process of allowing her pride to run her actions. Fixing their relationship will be a tough road they'll face, assuming they decide to take that path at the same time and how much free-will comes along with that decision.
Thanks so much! I'm glad to be back! Glad to see you updating as well! I won't keep you all waiting long for the next one this time.
LOU?! WHY IN THE WORLD IS LOU THERE?! Especially next to Mack's father?? AHH! THE SUSPENSE!
Ok, love that Mack performed her heart out on stage, and so happy that her mom was there with her too! AWW! Oh and the thought of Chris doing makeup on Mack is hilarious to me, I wouldn't mind having Chris do my makeup..
And why was JC staring at Mack like that?? OMG is it JC's famous epic stare that makes girls go haywire??
Good update! Looking forward for more! :D
Okay, the dead obvious thing that's sticking out right now is why Bobbie being so nice to her. Is it because JC's isn't her friend anymore? That screams insecure and transparent, especially since JC hasn't really showed any type of romantic interest in Mack. At least not anything overt.
Another thing that sticks out is Justin. Justin's making his move now that she and JC aren't friends? Why is JC some kind of enigma for everyone where if he's out of the picture, everyone can do what they'd like. Is it because they all know the feelings between JC and Mack? Hmm.
I'm glad her father could make it, not liking that Lou was the one to escort him. Can't wait for another update!
Wow, I did not think Mack would go as far as ending their friendship...and even with as mad as JC is, I also didn't imagine him not fighting for their friendship. If he never felt they were friends....yikes...there's obviously some underlying animosity between the two.
I like that Mack has someone other than Justin to communicate with on a more intimate level. Lance provides that for her and it's good to see she has relationships with the other guys, too.
I'm glad to see you updated again and I'll be anticipating whatever is to come.
WHAT?! WHYYY! AHHHH! JC and Mack can't just stop being friends..after all they've freakin been through! *SIGH* This is getting SO good! :D
Ok ok..um, I love that they went to go to the tattoo parlor and each got tattoos except for JC and Mack, aww I wonder if JC is still afraid of needles..
And I also agree with you, Mack needs to have more convos with the other guys, she needs a one on one with Joey, cause Joey is more a soft-spoken guy, and he's like a great shoulder to cry on..and Chris is just so hilarious..LOL But let me just say thank you Lance for being there.. :)
Like I said, this is getting more awesome with every chapter, looking forward for the next one, and did you SAY END OF PART ONE? THERE'S GONNA BE A PART TWO! YAYYYY! *Snoopy dance*
Thanks for the update! :D
Another update already? What did I do to deserve this? Don't spoil me! *Rushes to read chapter*
So this is the aftermath of the slap felt through the computer screens of all the Nsync fangirls in the land. Relations between Mack and JC are icy, and Justin is being a fickle fuckboy. I feel for Mack, she knows that she screwed up and is trying her best to make it right, but I feel even more for JC (JC sad, makes me sad). I think that Mack is sincerely sorry; she's sorry for hitting him, for getting so angry, for what she said, but I don't think that she's getting to the root of the problem. Yes, she hurt JC, but why did it hurt him so bad? Perhaps because his feelings for her run deeper than she assumes? Time shall reveal all.
As always, fantastic writing!
