I'm really loving this story more and more and it's because you really can't completely hate or love any of the characters if you sit back and think about it. Amelia is the way she is because it's hard for women to get respect in the business world. The fact that she works hard is something to respect but she's so far in it that it's easy to hate who she's become. And I really think only Justin could be the one to have an affect on her but he's too punk ass. Relationships are so investing that it's hard to give them up but to completely lose your backbone? All the shit that bitch has said about him...Charlotte should punch them both just to make me happy. Gosh Charlie...At this point, I still have a few more chapters before I'm caught up (which is kinda exciting yet sad at the same time) but I feel like there's nothing wrong with change except for the fact that she's completely lost who she is in these two people. She and Justin really need to be true to themselves and I think they'd feel so much better...Rofl look at me analyzing them like it's real. It's relatable though! Anyway, keep up the good work. I'm sure I'll be leaving at least one more review.

Author's Response: YES that is exactly what I was going for! Everyone has the potential to be a lovable character but they keep making crap decisions haha. I like your analysis of the characters! Thanks for reading and reviewing!!!

I had to re-read the story because I am having withdrawls with no updates but I was really curious about a couple of things.  what ever came out of Charlie looking over Justin's finances.... I can't figure that out plus more importantly what was up with Amelia's late night dinners?  these two things really were bothering me as to the meaning of this....

Author's Response: I can tell you the stuff with Amelia will be answered no worries there. Charlotte looking over Justin's finances was a little extra tidbit I'd added early on and as the story progressed the chapter that I was going to address that in ended up being cut because it was kind of unnecessary and I've been trying to resolve it but with only three chapters left there isn't really a place I can do that. This is the problem with posting as you write chapter to chapter, sometimes your story shifts from your outline and then you kind of screw yourself over. All Charlotte was going to find was that Justin wasn't broke, that actually Amelia had redone his finances when they got engaged and made a few investments for him that actually MADE him money. When the story is complete I'm going to do some MAJOR edits, cutting out unnecessary things (because lets be honest this story is a beast as far as length haha) and that little bit of diologue will probably be cut unless I can find a way to work it in. I'm actually glad you asked about that because I was wondering how I was going to let everyone know about that haha. Thanks for reading and reviewing!!!

I only just realised that I didn't leave a review for this last chapter!!

I'm so excited!! I just know something big is going to happen soon! but I'm also scared because I have no idea what it is that is going to happen but at the same time that just adds to the excitement! Oh the joy of reading fiction! haha.

I really hope Charlotte gets everything sorted out because I hate seeing her life turn shitty because of stupid Amelia!!!!

Anyway, I loved the chapter and I can't wait for the next one!



Author's Response: Yeah there's a pretty huge build in this story. I never really realized it until a few chapters ago but its all leading to something pretty big and now I'm all nervous about it hahaha. I'm glad you're liking it so far and I'm hacking away at this next chapter I promise! Thanks for reading and reviewing!!!

I have been readying this over at JJB(Hillbillyrckstr) for a very long time. I am in love this this story.

Of course there are many times that I would like to shove my 4" heel in Amelia's eye but I think she is a great character in the story. Plus I can't wait to see her finally (maybe) get what she deserves!

Keep the chapters coming Heather!



Author's Response: YAY hahaha I love that Amelia drives people crazy. Poor Justin needs some company lol Thanks for coming over here and dropping me a review!!!

It's about dang time she realizes she is not happy there. I hope things start to look up for her too because she's getting so depressed :( Like I always say, Justin needs to grow a pair. LoL. I’m anxious to see where you’re going to take this because really I have no idea! I am enjoying it a lot though! Anyway, fantastic job hope more is coming soon. Sorry about the late reply, this semester is kicking my butt! TTYL -Traci

Author's Response: You and me both sistah! Seriously whoever invented senior year is an asshole hahaha! Thanks for taking the time out to read though! Yeah hopefully this is a turning point for Charlie. We shall see. Thanks for reading and reviewing!!!

Well I hope she actually finds and does something for herself. She needs to get back to being herself cause at the end of the day that's all she'll have and she has to live with the person she becomes. She definitely was bold at the beginning of this chapter. Forget making justin feel better though! He has brought this all on himself and he can fix things, but he doesn't. So she shouldn't feel the need to fix it, at least temporarily. She needs to not be so freaking nice. She makes sacrifices, puts her self (mentally, emotionally, physically) on the line for others...all for people who don't deserve it, are cold hearted, ignorant, and vindictive and she gets absolutely nothing in the end. Amelia most definitely doesn't give her anything except a pay check, and justin is not giving her what she desires the most, which is his heart one hundred percent. His body is great and all, but it only goes so far and she ends up feeling guilty and like crap. Stop being so effing nice! It's so sad. Everybody in this story is such a sad individual, even amelia. It's sad that she's become who she is and it's sad that she such a bia. Haha. We know why justin and charlie are sad individuals. As I read this chapter I had the thought that I think one of the reasons justin may like charlie so much is that she is like an old version of amelia. His amelia that wasn't the power and money hungry vindictive she-devil that she is today. Maybe that's a stretch since he hasn't actually had that thought exactly, but that's just what I think. But how things are going she's slowly make the transition to becoming a version of amelia, and not a good one. BUT it is great that she has caught herself ahead of time. It's so sad that she won't quite a job because of a man who she does not have...who she may never have. She better find herself and fast. And I've said it from the first time you mentioned justin's finances a few chapter back...justin, his finances, amelia - all tied together. When you prove me wrong I will admit that I was wrong, but until then...haha. Oh! It seems to me that amelia was eavesdropping on the convo between the 3 girls cause she knew they had been to Saks and that they asked charlie to go shopping with them. Yes she told them to do it, but how did she know they did it right then? I don't know. Maybe I need to re-read that part again, but I was like "something is not right." Update soon! :o)

Author's Response: Yes I've kind of come to notice that everyone in this story is kinda lame and sucky lol I didn't FULLY intend for them to be that way, like I wanted them to be flawed and as real as possible and I think that they are to a certain extent but damn lol I like what you said about Charlotte being like the old Amelia. I hadn't really thought of it that way, more so in the sense that Charlotte is very different from Amelia but you're kind of right. She's very much like Amelia used to be. I love when you guys make me see stuff in my characters that I didn't even notice before! Thanks for reading and reviewing!!!

Sounds like someone is starting to lose themselves in the wonderfully weird world of Justin Timberlake.  That happens alot when we're in (love) or infatuation with someone...trust me.  Started acting all kinds of different with my first bf.  I think it may be time for a visit from her mom and dad.  Nothing like family to pull your head out of your ass...!  LOL!  Love the update, hun:)

Author's Response: YES UGH! I've been kinda in this situation with a guy myself just recently and while it didn't end up the way I would have hoped its given me some pretty good fuel for this story as far as emotion goes. Yeah Charlie needs a nice kick in the ass lol Thanks for reading and reviewing!!!

Okay. While I totally agree that she's changed her outward appearance a lot, inwardly she's still the same when she's around JUSTIN. The only thing she needs to get away from is Amelia and her prissy ass. So sure, Charlie, go to school, and maybe Justin will grow a pair and leave Amelia once and for all. God that woman is unbelieveably annoying. Lol...update again soon!

Author's Response:

EXACTLY! What I love about Charlotte is she's just slightly dramatic lol Like she starts dressing in nicer clothes and she's suddenly like "OMG I'M TURNING INTO AMELIA" lol Like its kind of a way for her to keep herself in check. She's hard on herself and tries to be brutally honest with herself. Its one of the things I love the most about her. Sorry that was a ramble lol Thanks for reading and reviewing!!!

Ok, so I FINALLY had some time to read this story now that I'm done with my big long drama, and it took me some time to catch up, but I'm happy to say that I'm all caught up. Now... *cracks knuckles* In the next chapter, I demand that someone "accidentally" or not so accidentally really, pushes Amelia off the Brooklyn bridge. Preferably Justin. Or Charlie. I don't care. But it needs to be done. Yep. I'm sure you've heard it a million times by now, but that woman is seriously, seriously VILE. And I thought I created frustrating characters. Haha. She is, by far, the most god-awful character I've ever had the displeasure of reading about. Honest to God, I think she's the devil in disguise. I LOATHE her. And she ain't even real. LOL! She's just AWFUL. Awful, awful, awful. And that's a testament to how great a writer you are because I'm sitting here seriously hating the guts out of a fictional person. She has no redeemng qualities at ALL. God, I hope she gets hit by a taxi at least. I swear, I'm not a violent person. LOL

Which brings me to Justin. How can he even tolerate that... that thing (and yes, she's a thing because I swear she lacks a soul. Like I said, devil in disguise lol). He's seriously frustrating and depressing the hell out of me. This whole story is seriously depressing. GROW A PAIR, DUDE. UGH! He's so stupid. I love him, but he's seriously stupid. Like dropped on his head as a child too many times stupid. She's already sucked all the life out of you. GET OUT WHILE YOU STILL CAN! Bah!

And Charlie...I feel her dilemna, but man, she's just...ugh. I dunno. She's great, but she's stupid, too. lol She needs to stop giving into Justin and just walk away from it all. Maybe then his dumbass will finally realizes he loves HER and not that THING he keeps convinces himself he loves. I swear, I want to knock him around every time he thinks it.

I love Trace. He is awesome and not stupid. He's only character I like wholeheartedly at this point. We should get married. Make it happen, k? Next chapter. Kthanx.

This story seriously riles a person up, can't you tell? I love it, but it's still depressing. LOL You're a really amazing author. You paint really vivid images with your words. I've written you a novel now, but that was a lot of story to process. Haha.  



Author's Response: HAHAHA OMG YOU SHOULD MARRY TRACE!!! The last sentence "And then Trace dumped Ginger for Lisa." I'm glad it riles you! That means I'm doing my job. Thanks for reading and reviewing!!!

Okay, I'm sort of over Charlotte letting herself get used and walked all over.  And now she's becoming a mini-Amelia?  I'm going to need Trace to make another appearance because right now I think he's the only character I still like.  I'm still in love with this story though.  Fantastic update! 

Author's Response: Traaaaaace guh I seriously miss him. I promise he will make another appearence. I can't remember how soon but he's coming back I swear lol Glad you're loving it! Thanks for reading and reviewing!!!

Ughh..Charlie, please don't turn into Amelia clone.

Author's Response: IKR. Seriously Charlie needs some garlic or holy water or something lol Thanks for reading and reviewing!!!

Poor Charlie 8< All the shit she goes through for Amelia. She really needs to leave before she transforms into her. 

Lovely as usual~ ♥ I patiently await the next installment o/ 



Author's Response: IKR!!! I think it was kinda a rude awakening for Charlie. Here's hoping it knocks some sense into her! Thanks for reading and reviewing!!!



azchickadee (Signed) on Sep 10, 2009 07:40 pm (Chapter 26)

okay, so the first half of the chapter I was disappointed in Charlie.  I can't believe she's still with Justin!  I mean, I know she loves him, but the fact that he is being a complete idiot and doesn't realize the fact that he doesn't love Amelia is starting to get on my nerves and I want Charlie to stand up for herself and tell him good-bye.

I like the idea of her going to school.  She needs to concentrate on herself for a while instead of everyone else. 

Awesome update!  :)



Author's Response: She does. I'm seeing this as a bit of a turning point for Charlie but we'll see how it goes. She's a hard nut to crack...like a certain curly haired doormat we all know and love hahahaha Thanks for reading and reviewing!!!



kahnechick85 (Signed) on Sep 10, 2009 02:13 pm (Chapter 26)
I feel so bad for her. She needs to just leave Justin alone all it's doing is making things worse for herself. Justin needs to decide what he wants and stop playing both women. I love this, PMS

Author's Response: Yeah Charlotte's in a seriously tough situation right now. Poor kid. Here's hopin she can get out of it. Don't even start with me on Justin *puts him in the corner* LOL I'm glad you're loving it! Thanks for reading and reviewing!!!

Charlotte Charlotte Charlotte.... I want to be mad at her for fucking her life up so badly but dammit I love her too much! Haha And Justin, dude, get with it! You are falling for her! Men are so dumb! Grrrr Anyway loved it as usual light if my fictional life!

Author's Response: You know I think Justin's stupid-boy-ness is rubbing off on Charlie and not in any kind of sexy way lol Glad you liked it! Thanks for reading and reviewing!!!
