K.C.

I debated the sex between Gibby and Tanner and thought in the end, since this is very along the lines of a Young Adult story that I would leave the actual scene out. It just felt wrong to go into too much detail, but I'm sure these readers have good imagination and can conjure up things better than I could ever write Thanks for reading!

Option 1- maybe Option 2- maybe Or Option 3- read and find out on Monday! Sorry Perry but I couldn't resist We're almost there only 4 more days. Thanks so much for reading! KC

Hehe-hehe...Is it meaner that it makes me smile with the image of you stomping around huffin' and puffin' at me? I'm sorry Charlie that this chapter ended on a cliffy. I debated splitting chapter 19 into 18 and 20 and make the epilogue the last chapter but I really think the timing will work out better this way. I hope your not still mad at me come Monday and refuse to read the end. Thanks Charlie!

Sorgbarn, I love your reviews but you should know by now that I can't answer. I should start like a Congressman caught up in a bad scandal "No Comment!" I'm not planning a spin-off but i hope the end answers all questions. I was really confident about the end but as we get closer I always have moments of self-doubt. I want everyone to love this story as much as I do! This has been a huge undertaking but I've had so much fun. The readers and reviews have been amazing! I just can't say thank you enough to everyone!!! KC

Thanks Terry, I feel that my stories work better in shorter/novella length. I have written longer novel length but I tend to have a faster pace that works well at this range. I can't believe we're at the end. This has been a crazy ride for Gibby and an amazing adventure for me and the readers! KC

I know it's hard waiting! Believe me, I'm a very impatient person The countdown has begun so now that It's Thursday you don't have to wait as long. (I know that doesn't help) LOL Thanks for reading. I'm glad you have liked it! KC

Sorry Brian but I don't usually do spin-off's or sequels. I am planning a 3 part super-natural series as my big project for next year (hint-hint) I'll be sad to see this end too but it opens up the possibility to new projects that I'm really excited about. Thanks for reading and hope you'll like my next stories too

Happy Birthday!!!!

Gibby dropped his satchel onto his bed as he quickly walked across his bedroom to place his ipod into the docking station and turned some music on. He’d gotten used to the music in the background. It also helped to drown out the sound of voices coming from his bedroom. Glancing around the empty room, Gibby chewed on his lower lip waiting for Tanner to suddenly pop in and scare him like the normally did. Two minutes stretched to five, then turned to ten; before he knew it, Gibby was nervously

I just wanted to say thank you and give a big hug for your kind words and thoughts and prayers. This week has been harder than I expected. I know there will be more days ahead where I stumble and fall, scream and cry and rage, just as long as I keep getting back up, that's a start in the right direction. My world had changed so dramatically to the point that I almost don't reconize it, which has been so scary for me. I've been told that over time the pain from Mom's death will lessen... only time will tell. Well, the family and i are heading out on vacation later today. It is a much needed break. I had put so much of my life on hold for the last 1-2 years with mom getting sick and me breaking my leg...it will be nice to get away and relax. Thanks again! KC

I have often wondered what would happen if someone walked in on them? You've got some good questions there Gulab and hopefully I can answer them. I'm trying the autopost again so the chapter should post Monday afternoon EST. Thanks so much for reading and sticking with me and my story

I like to read the prompt, but never have enough time to write anything. Maybe after I finish my current project, i'll have more time

Please please please be more!! Can I vote for more here or must I do it in the forum??? I can't believe that not only did Chad leave but he left like that. Sneak out in the night and not give Tibial a chance when he had picked Chad More...

I drop in to read everyday, but don't say much. It's not often that I have amazing words of encouragment. I'm more useful to make some laugh then to give advice because frankly, who would listen to me? My life is a mess most of the time, I'm good at just pushing on but today, I felt it tearing at the seems. I bottle a lot up, shove it down, forget it, drown it, if I can't see it or feel it...it goes away right? Well for a little while at least. Today is my mom's birthday and I had a difficult day...that's an understatement...I had a miserable day! The last surgery of my shift got cancelled, there wasn't much for me to do before my shift ended so I discreetly asked my supervisor if I could leave. I thought he would say no. I was out several days last week and I'm off next week for vacation, but surprise, he said yes. My good mood only lasted half a second. When a co-worker saw me leaving, she threw a freaking tantrum. Really? Are you like 2 years old? I bit my tongue and didn't bitch slap her but I was so ready to. I don't flipping care that you are PMSing... you don't sign my paycheck bitch so I don't have to answer to you! I felt myself on the edge of a melt down and had to get as far away as fast as I could. I picked up my kid and we took a nice long drive to change the flowers on my mom's grave. Don't say that was a nice thing to do. I feel like a giant hypocrite! I never took flowers to my mom when she was alive and now I'm making sure that the flowers are fresh and pretty at her grave. I'm irritated and pissed and mad and sad and a billion other emotions all at once....Oh shit, maybe I'm PMSing too? A friend warned me how hard these milestones would be. I made it through the first mother's day right after she died and now her birthday. I don't know how or why it hit me so hard today. I was fine. I am fine. I hadn't cried in weeks, maybe even a month or more so why today? Does it really mean that much? Why?? I would rather be numb and not feel anything at all then to feel this pain. Need it to pass quickly or I'm going to crawl into a whisky bottle and not come out...

How did I miss this??? This most definitely the pick-me-up that I needed today. Awwww they adopted another baby. Just the other day we were talking about the what-if's since our kid is an only child. I'm glad that everything worked out...but now I'm sad to see that it's over. Good job!

Good luck!

I agree with ya, I don't think I'd want to live in SC either there is already too much drama in my RL so no more needs to be added I'm going out of town again next week so there is another high probability that I will screw up the auto-post so far I'm 1=1 Thanks for reading, I'll keep everyon informed incase it doesn't post correctly.

You're my 300th review! *happy dance* I can't tell you how much it means that you and everyone else likes my story. It's amazing. You want an early review, huh? Surpised you don't try to steal my laptop when I'm not looking, Ms. Sneaky! Really, Rose, thanks for reading, It means a lot

If I take time to read a story, I like to let the author know what I thought but I don't like when I notice authors who don't answer/respond to their reviews. I've had it happen before and it totally turned me off to leaving reviews for those authors. I love to hear from readers and as a reader I love to discuss the stories that I am very impatiently waiting for the next chapter (I try not to bounce up and down while waiting) Read... review....write! Encourage a new talent, your word could be just what they need to continue

And more questions, question, question you guys are gonna make me buy a ticket for the crazy train. Answers are coming verrrry soon. Thanks so much for reading Lisa.

Yeah, I screw up a lot...you should see me in real life. It's never a dull moment There is only 2 more chapters but there is soooo much in them. Hope you come back for chapter 19 on Monday!

I debated if I was going to bring Scott back around. He hurt Gibby and I wasn't happy with him so I can't wait to see what he had to say. We are coming down to the end only 2 more chapters. Thanks so much for all your encouragment

Sorry Intune, I screw-up my auto post last week, I think a few people missed it, but I got it right this week. I see you got caught up I hope you still like it. Thanks so much for reading

Yes, Jammi, Wayne does have secret-super-powers. His Mod/Admin privileges let him have a sneak peak when I set the autopost. At first I thought that I had screwed it up on thursday but the chapter posted correct for today. The thought of Gibby and Tanner getting caught has crossed my mind. I wonder how he would explain that? Awkward!!! You don't have to wait too long, the end is near. Thanks for reading Jammi

I need more shiny objects to dangle in front of Rebel to distract him I have a question of my own. Scott makes a surprise appearance...so where does this leave Tanner? Hehe is that bad of me???
