 "Time is a lot of the things people say that God is. There's the always preexisting, and having no end. There's the notion of being all powerful--because nothing can stand against time, can it? Not mountains, not armies. And time is, of course, all healing. Give anything enough time, and everything is taken care of: all pain encompassed, all hardships erased, all loss subsumed. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. Remember, man, that thou art dust; and unto dust thou shalt return. And if Time is anything akin to God, I suppose that Memory must be the Devil." -D.G

 

DISCLAMER: I don't own *NSYNC or Justin Timberlake, JIVE records, or anything else affiliated with the boys.  All of my stories are works of fiction.  I do own all original characters, plots, etc.  Please don't steal my stuff!

The last time we saw Lauren Walters, she was working as personal assistant for one of the most arrogant men in the entertainment industry. She never would have guessed falling in love with her boss was in the stars. Now Lauren is girlfriend to none other than Justin Timberlake and she couldn’t be happier.

But good things never last very long and Lauren just might have to learn the hard way in this sequel to Deranged Delusions. Can she save the good things without ruining her life and those she loves in the process? Or will deception and distrust destroy her perfect life as she knows it?

lol...I think Justin took lessons from the same person I have when it comes to skating.  I suck, lol, and apparently Justin does too :)  I hope Lauren's parents warm up to him!

Author's Response: I try to think I'm a bad ass at skating, but I can turn in a circle and that's about it. I never got the whole skate backwards thing and therefore forward is the only way to go for me *lol* Stay tuned for the parental issue though. That'll be addressed coming up soon! - Amanda

Aww...I don't want to see what happens when Lauren and JT are seperated.  I think that bad things will happen and I don't want to see that.  So...I might have to close my eyes through a few chapters and just catch up when things are happy...lol.

I'm so glad you're back :)



Author's Response: Who knows, AJ, maybe this whole story will be all rainbows and butterflies! You never know! Granted it wouldn't make a good story if Justin and Lauren are all lovely dovely. Don't close your eyes, the upcoming chapters are going to be freaking awesome! Thanks as always for the continued support and reviews! update coming soon - Amanda

OK....I think I'm just as frustrated as Lauren is.  I don't like Maura being cozy with JT, but at the same time....I really hope there's no reasy for her to be upset.  Right?  Justin would never hook up with Maura, right?

please...don't break my heart! or Lauren's! lol



Author's Response: I can't make any promises on hearts being broken or being left whole. But I'm glad you like the story so far. An update will be here before you know it. Thanks so much for the review and the constant support! - Amanda

Yes! Canada!  I desperately want things to be OK between her and Justin.

Author's Response: Canada is fun. I went to Vancouver a couple years ago and it was a lot of fun. Yay Canada! Thanks for the review and an update is coming soon! - Amanda

So, as I was reading this chapter I had a total episode of deja vu of deja vu.  if that makes sense.  There's a scene in here that I swear I remember reading before (not saying you've copied, just saying I've had this moment, lol) and as I'm thinking that I've read this before I'm also thinking that I've written a review telling you that this chapter gave me deja vu. 

Whew, that was long and confusing.  I hope you can decipher my crazy ranting.  I loved, LOVED the update :)



Author's Response: Crazy rantings are my favorite....and that feeling of deja vu is probably one of the weirdest things to experience ever. It's happened a handful of times to me and I don't like it at all lol. Thanks for the review and an update is coming up! - Amanda

So, I'm happy that you gave me a solid reason to hate Maura, because I didn't like that girl and I wasn't sure why...but not I've got a  reason so it's OK....just one question...where the hell did all the stuff go??

Author's Response: Well I can't tell you where all the stuff went that would totally ruin a few things I have planned lol. You might find out in due course. I'm not going to tell you exactly when though! Thanks for the love! - Amanda

I don't want them to break up...no no no no no!  Please....make this better....please!!!

Author's Response: They have, sadly, already broken up. I might make it better, I might not. Justin said some pretty messed up crap, and so did Lauren come to think of it. But I will update soon, how 'bout that? - Amanda

So, I really thought I was going to have to write myself into this story so I could strangle Maura for Lauren...but, I'm glad I don't.  And...these two have to be the most stubborn and pigheaded people I've ever read about!

And...with that...I loved it!



Author's Response: Oh Maura...such a homewrecker. And yeah I love how stubborn the two of them are, makes for an interesting read, yeah? - Amanda

Oh....they so better get back together with this trip.  SHe can't move on!! gah....I want them together :)

I loved it :) 

 



Author's Response: I'm glad you loved it and we'll see how their meeting goes. They may or may not end up together. We'll just have to wait and see! Patience! Thanks for the love! - Amanda

oh snap.  good, get rid of that bitch! and I think JT and Trace should've let them go at it a little longer, I would've loved to see Lauren kick the shit out of Maura some more!

Author's Response: Yes, but then Lauren would be thrown in a foreign jail and that wouldn't be good at all. And who's to say Lauren's done with Maura? Hah. Glad you liked the chapter and more is coming soon! - Amanda

Oh goodness...that was rough.  I don't even know what I have to say about all that...

Lauren needs to forgive JT, he's pathetic and a mess without her, lol

WOOO!!! that was so great! I was worried there for a second that there was gonna be a big fight about Lauren and Trace being together, but I'm glad trouble was averted.  And then I thought you were gonna say that Trace was dating Maura, lol....oh....I'm glad you've updated!!!!
