I'm just updating now even tho I read this like a week ago but I just read it again soo anyway awesome job! I'm so excited he asked her to be his girlfriend. I can't wait to see what hapens noww that she is officially his girlfriend1 update soon please!

Author's Response: I just love that you read some of my chapters more than once...it makes me feel special :p Glad you liked it that much and thanks so much for reviewing...both times. :)

SCORE! haha...yay! that's awesome!

Author's Response: Glad you liked!

Absolutely fantabulous! Trace and Elisha need to focus on each other more often. Not only are they sweet, but maybe all of the hairbrained ideas would stop. And I'm so proud of Elli, asking for a kiss- and for once, she wasn't the one afraid of something silly like a thunderstorm. Speaking of rain, it's quite dreary outside, but the thought of a wet Justin asking for a girlfriend somehow makes it all better.

Author's Response: LOL! Thanks so much for reviewing and I'm so glad that you enjoyed this chapter. I really liked writing this one and, not to toot my own horn, but I especially like the part where Elli asks for a kiss. I just wanted to show that she is changing and growing and maturing and that there are more sides to her character that you have yet to even see. Enough of me babbling. Thanks a bunch for reviewing--much appreicated.

School...don't remind me. *sighs* By wednesday does that mean you started today or next wednesday? If you meant today, so so sorry for ya. lol Anyways, the rain kiss was cute. But I'm sure that next chapter is gonna be drama...her mom'll back in town...Cop what's his face will back and now they actually have a true blue relationship. Elli is getting more relaxed and open around him...Justin's talkin about being scared...yeah, I have a feeling the next chapter is probably gonna give him reason to be scared. Update soon!

Author's Response: I don't know about all that drama in the next chapter. You know I don't like drama.....riiiight. LOL! Maybe I'll hold off the drama until the chapter after the next. We'll see. ;) Oh, school started...uh I think it was actually the Tuesday after the Wednesday that you were talking about. Anyway, I left on a Wednesday--the seventeenth I think and now have two weeks under my belt and I'm starting to get back in to the swing of things. Hope school is giong well for you too. Thanks for revieiwng!

[I]I don’t know how he comes up with these harebrained schemes of his but he really should learn to run them by me first or something.[/I] Yeah, like some really dumb scheme whereby you pretend to be interested in the girl you know your best friend is digging on in a harebrained attempt to make him jealous enough to act on it... oh, wait, that wasn't Justin was it Trace? I need to quit talking to your fictional characters like they're real, it can;t be a sign of sanity.

Author's Response: LOL! You are so right. Trace is just as bad as Justin if not worse. I guess that what keeps them so close--their similarities. :) Thanks for reviewing!
