Thank you Ron. I'm glad to hear that you like it, sad, heartbreaking and all the adverbs included

I like NFL football, and I like to hike and read obviously. I'm trying to learn Spanish and I like to spend time with my family, who lives nearby. Oh, and nap. I definitely like to nap Um….palm tree?

Thanks JC. Your help with Save Tonight was invaluable

Hmm…that's a good one. I'm not very mysterious I guess maybe that I'm very shy in real life, at least until I get to know people. I'm not as bad as I used to, but I used to be so shy I would get in trouble at school for being too shy to answer questions when the teacher called on me. It's why I enjoyed reading and writing so much, they didn't require a lot of social interaction.

I am pretty happy with most of the stories that I post, but if there was one that I would have to change, it would probably be the NTS trilogy. It is one of my longest works and one of my earlier ones and while I really like it, I think it wanders a bit at times and could be a little more focused. If I ever did decide to revise it (and I have thought about it) it would take a long time so I'm saving that as a long term project.

Thanks Lisa. I remember you Glad you gave NTS a chance!

Thank you Cia. Writing is more than just a hobby…maybe an obsession would be the right word? LOL. No, seriously, I write because I enjoy it and it's fun. I have thought about publishing, but it's not something I'm interested in right now. I have a job, and writing is what I do for fun. I worry if I published something for profit, it would start to feel more like a "job" and less like "fun". So I try very hard to keep them separate. Thanks Mann, Myiege came up with some great questions. I'm glad you liked Save Tonight. A lot of the plot came from losing a friend of mine back in December. I miss him very much and when I was thinking of a wishing well, I knew one of my wishes would be to have a chance to see him again. So I drew a lot on those two things, how much you could miss someone and wanting to just have more time with them when I was writing Save Tonight.

Promising first chapter, very emotional. Look forward to seeing more.

You guys feel free to do Bieber all you want. I'll take his hot ex girlfriend

What is THAT supposed to mean?

Some of the authors have multiple updates too! Sheesh! Makes me feel lazy!

Thanks Lisa! I hope I do not owe you a new computer Mikeal is very high strung and inexperienced, which leads to a lot of doubts and fears. It definitely helps that Adam is very mature for his age, which is important. An immature person, who doesn't respect Mikeal's feelings, would break his heart or lose him. Adam wants to keep him Glad you liked the chapter, thanks for reviewing!

Thank you Ron. I'm glad you liked the chapter and especially the analogy at the end, which is also one of my favorites. I do try to keep a balance of story and smut in my chapters, but I do agree that the second scene, that had a lot more emotion and closeness, can make for better sex. Thank you so much for reviewing!

Thanks Daddydavek. High maintenance for sure, but well worth it. You said it yourself, the sex scenes are smokin'. Thanks for the review!

CHAPTER SEVEN: COMFORT Mikeal called Julie the next morning and met with her for brunch. She looked like she hadn't slept much, her face was still puffy and her eyes red rimmed, but she put on a brave face, eating a little food and trying to act nonchalant. Her phone, resting on the table between them, vibrated several times, but Julie would check the ID and then push it away, refusing to answer. "Is he trying to get in touch with you still?" Mikeal asked.

To quote Argus….hoo-lee shee-it!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Thanks for the birthday wishes everyone! I had a great day

Thank you Cole Matthews. Adam and Mikeal are definitely growing closer, though the same can't be said for Julie and Josh, but she is much better off without him. I'm glad you liked it and thanks for reviewing.

Happy New Year Lisa! *throws confetti*Adam is not very sinister I'm afraid, though he definitely has his reservations with Mikeal. And no lightsabers this chapter, but Adam is not done with his Star Wars education yet! Thanks for the review!

Julie has been through a rough time but she's strong. Adam is definitely well on his way. Thanks for the review.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

You are very pretty and I will follow you home in a heartbeat

Man, Danny is mess! Seems like he doesn't know what he wants. I'm glad he's moving on with Cayden though. They are very sweet together and it's important for Danny to have someone. Great chapter!
