haha, I love it already. That was hilarious. I don't know why I didn't read this sooner. Darnell does not play around. haha As she shouldn't when it comes to protecting her kids, but for a second there I was like 'does she really not recognize him?' Maybe it was dark and the angle wasn't right or something.
Anyways, onto the next chapter...
Aww, so so cute! It just gets better with each chapter. haha I love the dynamic of Darnell and Justin's relationship. I don't like so much Andrew's earlier comment of something along the lines of this was my first date with a black chick... Even if it's just a fact, just the phrasing of it makes me question his motives. This story kinda reminds me of Love & Basketball a little bit but with basketball replaced with video games. I like Justin's little quirk of being the camera boy...haha I'm glad that the whole boy name thing was brought up in this chapter because in the first chapter as soon as I heard her name I was like, Darnell? What kinda name is that for a girl? haha But like Darrien said it's unique though. There's so much I love about this story, but I think the dialogue is the best part of it. Anyways, I hope y'all update soon. Sooner than soon, preferably.
Okay, so I already told y'all what I thought via AIM, but that girl...Whitney...ewww, she reminds me of that Michelle girl from another story that Kah was telling me about. Not good for her. lol May that be the first and last time her skanky self is bought into this. Making Darnell feel bad about herself because she's not "girly." Who needs enemies when you have friends like that? I like how easily distracted Justin is by thoughts of sex. lol He just seems to just geniunely want to be with her. He's that prototype of the kind of guy I'd want...the good guy, who takes care of his family and loves his wife...how many guys are there like that? Plus, he's hot. haha And she's pushing him away because she's not willing to talk to him? *shakes head* I just hope him and Darnell can work it out. Happy endings are your friends. lol And not the kind of friends who bad-mouth you when you're not around and try to steal your future husband.
Justin's denial is cute. lol Or maybe it's not denial, but more of a hopeless romantic, love will conquer all mentality. Too bad Dee's more focused on what she doesn't have in her life right now to realize all the good she already has and could potentially lose. I wonder though if she were given a choice, which hopefully she isn't, her marriage or her dream job, which would she choose? Based on this chapter, I'd say the latter. And maybe she could have it all, if she would just open her mouth and talk to him. Anyways, update soon!
Hmm, I wonder if Ava is really in cohorts with Darnell's mom. And I'm glad that Darnell finally went to the session. Only one small, tiny...huge problem--why can't she ever go with Justin?! lol At some point all that things she's willing to say to everybody else she's going to have to say to him, because clearly without making it painfully obvious Justin won't get it. lol The light bulb is just not going off for that boy, lol, I mean, he thought her not being there meant she was cheating. smh And I get why she didn't want to do it (the sessions that is) at first--just to spite her mother--but in the end it could wind up hurting her (or them). Maybe she needs a therapy session with her mother too.
I can't wait to find out about Darrien and Andrew's drama. Maybe they can get happy soon and then lead by example and then divorce can be a bitter pill that nobody has to swallow? Yeah? Yeah. lol Sorry it took me so long to review. :/ But you can update again now that I'm all caught up. :)
I wonder why/how Andrew doesn't remember sleeping with Darrien on Justin's wedding night. Seems like something you should know if it happened or not. lol And that Stone character seemed interesting, wonder how he comes into play in the grand scheme of things. And Whitney, better not try to ruin this prom for Darnell! And if she does, Darnell better put her foot up that girl's skanky ass. lol And is Darnell acting weird towards Justin just because he said he liked her, or because of the other kids that were looking at her when she was standing with him? Is she embarrassed of the sweet, goofy Justin? Hopefully, even if that is the case and she is embarrassed based solely on what other people will think, hopefully that doesn't come out at the prom. Cause if it does, I could see Whitney's hoochie butt trying to take advantage and swoop in. lol Anyways, I'm looking forward to seeing how prom plays out...update soon!
Aww shit. My competition had arrived. And so far, they're both losing. This whole competition idea could turn out to be very interesting, even though I'm not really liking the word "interesting" right now. lol But that's another story. It (the competition, that is) could be like McDreamy vs. McVet...only better because with Lamont as a Taye Diggs look-a-like he's at least some real competition. But Azaria's definitely no Meredith, both "dark and twisty," yes, due to relations with their mothers (or rather lack thereof) but Azaria's not at all the type to get bitch slapped and run off to cry, she might cry, but the person who slapped her would probably walk away with a limp. haha Anyways, obviously I've got Grey's on the brain pretty heavily thanks to that damn season finale. But good job! Glad y'all finally finished it.
Just when it seems like maybe he's cracked the uncrackable Azaria, turns out that he didn't...or if he did, she's still hiding it pretty well. Since she's supposed to be like a female version of crack for guys, a part of me almost wants some other girl to come along and dethrone her on that so then maybe she'll ease up and be with him, even though he claims he doesn't want commitment which I don't really believe that. lol And let's say he doesn't, it would be a nice change to see her chasing him, even if just for a bit. Plus, if there was another girl on that same kind of level, then maybe Ian would be professional around her. And really, I'd just like to see how she'd react to that, she finds it all annoying now (rightfully so--my mind has been on the sexual harassment lawsuit track for this story for awhile now lol), but what if it all just stopped? How would she handle that?
I wonder what the work environment was like before she started there, did they do this kinda stuff to another girl? I mean, it was mentioned about the rule of not locking the doors and how that all came about, so maybe they did. And is she friends with the other women that work there (maybe I just need to re-read lol)? Cause if not, then this new woman to dethrone her idea would probably make them happy, cause then she'd be like them. Anyways, I've obviously gone off on a tangent. So in conclusion, assertive/aggressive!Justin, yay! Keep 'em at arms length or more Azaria, boo. lol Though she did seem to be a little nicer to him at the end, before she pushed him away again, so I guess that's something.
Author's Response: Since we already discussed this in detail on aim. I guess there\'s really nothing left to say. I\'m mad you called her the \"female version of crack for guys\" LMAO. Oh and we will entertain the idea of bringing another attractive woman into the workplace. It seems like it would be able to work out nicely and cause drama between Azaria and Justin as if they need more of that. And also that idea about how Azaria would be able to handle it if all of it just stopped is great too. Maybe we\'ll entertain that one too. I have a question to ask you so when you are online I\'ll ask it.
I can't believe he handcuffed her ass. lol It's kinda cute, but it's also like what if I want to leave, you can't keep me here! lol I guess that's the point, but still. Anyways...Ms. Thorne what's up with her? She seems like an "interesting" character.
Author's Response: Ms. Thorne is interesting isn\'t she. Can\'t say much about her character though. She\'s still in the develop stage. But as for Justin and the handcuffs,yeah he wanted to make sure she couldn\'t leave in the middle of the night. Anyway as you know, we\'re working on the next chapter, but I got stuck so...yeah --Milla
LOL, Justin's so cutesy stupid in this. I love it. "I've got the pussy, so I make the rules." lol, Love, love that line too. Don't delete it, run with it. A love story that starts out with a near death moment... sounds muy interesante to me.
Author's Response:
lmao. i was a little nervous about that rule line. it was a little bold for me, but i said 'what the hell?' LOL.
I kinda figured that was going to happen once he became PA-less, only not the way it happened. I kept hoping it was going to be brought up, and then it was, but it was bad, because Sophie...ay dios mio, how can she not realize how hurtful/annoying/demeaning what she just did was? You can't just pawn her off on somebody else like she's your toy poodle, but even if Chelsea was, then she'd probably consider her feelings a bit more. lol I don't hate Sophie, because she's not all bad, but moments like that...smh, lol, I completely get why Kennedy hates her. And does Chelsea really need to always be involved in a relationship, professional or romantic, in which she doesn't speak up for herself? I guess that's where Justin comes in ...with the love she hasn't gotten and the opportunity to tell someone who has the upper-hand on her to fuck off if she feels the need. haha But even though that's the direction I see it going into, what with Chels' mild jealousy towards the idea of Sophie and Justin being together and Justin's mild jealousy towards the idea of Chelsea and Trace, I can't help but wonder, what about the short and stinky one? lol What if he's really got a thing for Chels? Ay dios mio, you've got me hooked. Update sooner than soon. Ahora! :)
Author's Response: Toy poodle... hahahaha. See Chelsea's comments about Prada handbags in next chapter *lol* Interesting you're reading jealousy into all this, I like knowing what people are seeing :o)
So it's official that Sophie has a thing for Justin. Great. Imagine her surprise/ potential bitch fit when she finds that dumping Chelsea off like that is going to turn out to be the very thing that gets them together. In the version in my head at least, lol, who knows what's actually going to happen. I tried to get clues from the song "Lovelight" which I listened to for the first time just a few minutes ago, haha, and yeah, still not really sure. But I have my ideas. :) And since this seemed to have worked last time, I'll say it again... Update sooner than soon. Ahora!
P.S. love the quick update!
Author's Response: Interesting version you've got in your head there... and excellent, I'm glad somebody listened to some Robbie out of this!!
Damn, I'm guessing interesting means that I was wrong? lol Not that you'd probably give a yes or no to that anyways. But him reminding her of Will in a good way, is the beginning of something right? I dunno, I'm gonna stop trying to figure it out and just go along for the ride. I like her relationship with Trace though, hopefully it won't be long before she can be like that with Justin too. And I wonder what Lynn has to say to her... Good update, do it again sometime soon!
Author's Response: You're right - I wouldn't say yes or no to that *lol*. I just meant interesting in that I like seeing where people think stuff's going :o)
Friends... how many of us have them? Friends... ones you can depend on. Chelsea needs to talk to someone, who unlike Sophie will be more interested in listening to what she's saying (or maybe even not saying) than talking about herself. And even when I'm thinking that Justin could be all You've got a friend in me to her, then he zones out when there was a chance to find out more about her. lol smh. Guess that's not too bad though, since he had a lot of crap going on to think about, plus it wasn't a question he'd asked (cause I hate that...that being when someone asks a question but doesn't listen to the answer). Well, I hope they can get to breaking the proverbial ice, cause even though they may talk and laugh, what difference does that make if you still feel lonely and slightly out of place? Oooh, and if she gets a backbone from hanging around Justin, then when she goes back to Sophie she can say how she feels, curse Enrique out, then peace out and live happily ever after...doing movies or Justin, or whatever. haha
Author's Response: Well, you know, Justin is after all a guy. They can't always be counted on to pay attention at the right moment *lol*
The thing that's different about this story than other fan fics I've been reading is that Justin isn't seen by Chelsea as an aww-inspiring Sex God or the Anti-Christ. He's pretty much just a guy to her, a regular, I'm just working for him guy to her. And even though she'd kinda rather him not be there at that moment, it's still not the same as actually hating him as a person. She just wants some me time - Understandable (though, c'mon it's Justin! lol On your bed. Justin on your freakin bed! lol). And even when I say I'm going to stop trying to figure it out, I'm still looking for clues. lol And I had really thought I was onto something with the jealousy thing, but the more updates I read the more and more I'm thinking, maybe Trace doesn't like her like that. And maybe she doesn't even subliminally, subconsciously like Justin (yet), which makes me wonder about her taste. lol But anyways, the dick in a box bit was hilarious and it was good of Justin to step in and glare that guy down for her.
