Author's Response: Thanks for your kind words... he's pretty easy to work with. Glad your'e enjoying it!
I'm gonna review after a while coz I read various chapters... the visit to the lake house has some of my favorites "normal" scenes fics ever!
The broke up =( the make up =) chapters werre great too, I absolutly love your JC, how he manages her issues, without losing view of his issues. Im in 29 chapter right now...sretching the time with Serena and JC for a while.
Author's Response: Great! I hope you've enjoyed it! It has been my baby for... wow, a long time. Someday I'll finish it.
Author's Response: Alright, Alright, I'll leave iiiiiiitttt! Lol.
First part of chapter: Holy Shit!
Second part of the chapter: Awww!
Author's Response: I know, I'm thinking of taking it down. It's a little much. But it was fun writing it!
fuck! *runs off to find tissues*
I keep saying it, I know, but DAMN IT! I fucking love this story so much. Him and those lyrics and holding her and talking about kids and a family and OMG that letter he wrote her and sending it so its the last piece of mail! STOP OK JUST STOP IT! *sobs*
I cant be single while reading this. I just cant. Its killing me! lol! I need a man, fuck... lets be honest, I need THIS JC! Make him come to life for me... lmao!
I'm not gonna even mention the first half of this chapter cause girl you knooow what you were doing when you wrote that like that and.... well... yes. Lets leave it at that. *melts*
loved the drive down to florida... a little sneak preview before the main show! yay! the road trip back to LA is gonna be awesome!!
seriously dying to see how you write up his parents. ah which reminds me of the last chapter and the whole patio scene with serena's parents. OMG loved it. they were just so spot on with what they were telling her. i just kept nodding my head going "yup thats right" lol!
and awww MELISSA! i totally shed a tear there... so sad. I love my friends and will die if they left me and flew across the country. I'm too selfish... ha!
Author's Response:
Lol, your reviews are always hilariously fun. Yes, I knew what I was doing. I was long overdue for some good old fashioned smut. LMAO. Ehhhhhhhhh. it is what it is and you KNOW it would be on if you did not see Fictional JC for 2 months. Dude, not sure I'd make it home...
Melissa breaks my heart, I cried writing it, then reading it.
Seriously on a roll with this story! Can't wait to write his parents either, and then get on the road!
Author's Response: :rock: She's gotta meet the folks and then they're hittin' the road!
Awww I liked this chapter. There was not a lot of action, but it was nice to see Serena getting to wrap up her life in Atlanta. I feel more confident about her move now, and I am not even her!
Are we going to get to read about the meeting of the parents?!?!
Author's Response: Yep! Not this next chapter but the chapter after that. Dun dun duuuuuuuuunnnnnnn. LOL.
I started reading this story today, per recommendation of a friend. I'm not a big fiction reader but she convinced me to give it a go and I have to tell you : I am positively hooked!
Your portrayal of JC is just so spot on to the JC I "see" in my mind. The way you write is absolutely engrossing. The story just draws you in from the very first chapter and never gets boring. And well, let's not forget, the sex is HOT!
You're very talented and I'm thankful you're sharing this talent with us. I very much look forward to the next chapter! Thank you!
Author's Response: Aw, thanks! I really appreciate hearing that!! Love hearing it, actually and I'm glad you enjoyed it! And well yeah... how can sex with w JC not be hot? Seriously. Duh. LOL! The next chapter is on the way, hopefully in a few days. This has been my baby, and a fun story to write. Sometimes it misbehaves, but it always comes back.... eventually. Thanks for a great review!
Author's Response: Hahah thanks. Uhm.......sometimes I do, too! After a while you forget what happened and it's like a new story! Thanks for the review, working on an update!
awww Allison's back! I like her. Tyler and her need to marry and live happily ever after. ;) btw that whole puppy scene was adorable!
and her whole "young people" thing? OMG YES! I go through that at least twice a day and am always training my oldest nephew (he's 15) to NOT be like that. he's doing good... hold's doors for ppl and everything, lol!
Oh. My. God. CHRIS!!!! *squeels and bounces up and down* OMG!OMG!OMG!
"Come over here. He doesn't bite, either."
Chris squinted into the bright morning sunlight and grinned. "Yeah, I do."
*dies* srsly... I love that man! and there little "fight" in the studio? aaah! adorable!
and omg... the private session. what the hell was that garbage about him not recording or touring? what is that?! no JC no!!! thats what I love about Serena! she's like OUR voice of reason. everything she said its like "YES! AMEN!" Stop with the damn excuses JC!
now! Alera! bitch please! OMG! Serena is such a better person than me bc I would've gotten up off that chair and jumped across that table and slapped the SHIT out of her. WTF?!! but Lara is great... glad she found a friend amongst JC's crew and is quitting the whole antisocialness. even though movie night in JC's arms with some popcorn cant be beat.
and then when everything was peaches and roses... *sigh*. Serena, Serena, Serena. I love you darling but srsly? come on now. This is why Tyler is awesome cause he took the words right out of my mouth.
"JC wants to be your family. He wants to take care of you, like family. It's just how he is. How he's always been. Get used to it, or you'll lose it. And I know you don't want that."
Guh... I love him.
I can not WAIT for this road trip! Srsly I am way too attached to this story. It must never end... do you hear me? Never.
Author's Response:
HA! what a great review, thanks!
I like Allison, too. She's calming for him-- takes him from frat boy to responsible adult.
Now, Chris-- have you ever heard that rumor that he and JC didn't get along? I've heard it and sort of half believe it because Chris can be evil and back in the day I think he was seriously ADHD. Anyway, in his later years he has calmed some and I think he and JC have come to respect each other where music is concerned. That's been a personal *warm fuzzy* thought of mine, to see them work together.
Yeah, ALERA. I had fun making her bitchy, but not just to be bitchy --jealous, WHY NOT ME??! bitchy. Yeah lots of fun and I thought about creating a scene but decided I didn't think that was Serena's personality-- she's more of a quiet, stern, dont -mess-with-me-bitch kinda gal. And I didn't think JC would appreciate her decking one of his friends. Even if she is a bitch.
And yeah Serena gets on my nerves! :p She's so damn independent and can't freakin' LET GO. I thought Tyler's words to her were brilliant. Summed it right up-- and I had to ask my Beta reader if JC seemed pissed enough, cause he is most certainly sick of her shit! She's getting stronger though, and coming around. Even if she is stubborn and too independent.
I'm looking forward to writing the road trip. Sorta. Cause I know he'll be full of cute dorkyness and I have to prep for that. LOL.
I dont even know where to begin...its been forever, I think I'm rusty, lol!
ok first i love that she brought it back up again....cause ya know what? that shit is for real son. even though i would have thought twice about it if you let them have the make up sex and move on... i love your brain and that she just popped it back up after the cutest covo about public sex.
and then i'm like.... ok JC's right, he cant apologize forever and i'm thanking god she realizes that and is like -ok breath out its done - because OMG that man had ME almost crying with his apology.
breakfast. OMGILOVEYOU! why wouldnt he burn it the first time and forget the coffee and flour ALL OVER. yeah....i'd kill his ass but omg love him all the same.
the soooong! eeep! ahhhhh! *happy dance* milk it serena! milk it girl! fucking BATHE in it! omg I love him. I love every single word of every single sentence of every single paragraph of this chapter. OMG! last sentence being my fav... SERIOUSLY! *dies*
Author's Response:
Geeez, it's been forever! Thanks so much for your awesome review! My friend Kim, who reads pretty much everything, made the comment on the previous chapter that he got off too easily, that she would have made him work harder. So we got into this conversation about real life and what happens when your man cheats and how it sometimes hits in waves. i thought that would be a good point to bring out.
And of COURSE the boy can't cook! I thought about that part and worried over it because from all accounts he really doesn't cook but for literary purposes I gave him a little leeway with that. I hope it was as cute on paper as it was in my head.
Above all I just wanted to bring across how hard he was trying to make it up, to her and what an internal struggle it has been (and continues to be) for Serena-- I wanted her to be unlike anyone he's been with before.
Author's Response: OMG 3:44 am! You're welcome for no cliff hanger! Vicki was UNPLEASED at them! HA! But you kept reading and that was my goal. Just not at 3 am! Thank you..... more good stuff soon!!
Author's Response: OmFG... I am up, can't sleep. Got an email and omg! Go to bed! The storywill be theRe tomorrow!lol!rn
