Sorry it ended too, but it felt right to end it there. Thanks Daithi for liking and reviewing

Chapter 19 After breakfast, Alexi left for the studio and Joshua sat in the living room reading the paper. He was busy doing the cross word puzzle when Lily walked into the penthouse rapping Japanese into her phone while she carried her briefcase with the other hand. She removed her shoes and padded into the living room on bare feet. Perching on an armchair she finished her phone call with a sigh. “Has Alexi left for the studio?” she asked. “An hour ago,” Joshua said studying her. She loo

Tea...is One of those rare treasures Enjoyed throughout the world Kit Chow All the Tea in China Eight “You look happy,” Chen said the next morning. San grinned wide as he helped her prepare a breakfast tray for Ziyu. “You told me to find my place in here.” “Looks like you found more than a place,” Chen teased arranging assorted egg sandwiches garnished with strawberries on two plates. “Ziyu is smiling more easily. The tea house is making profit, you’ve

I'm at a loss, Zune deserved Kev's reaction. This chapter was difficult, i find myself sympathizing with both camps. Kev gets very angry and how the whole group of friends shut Zune out is really sad. Even Carol's reaction, Zune is in a difficult place. As for Kev, he's so justified in his anger, hard to tell where this goes. Great job on that by the way, I'm eagerly awaiting the next chapter. And Edward, what is going on with him, he has clearly managed to change his whole personality, are you sure Aliens didn't take him over or something? Jeez, the bracelet thing was cute, and I hate that I like that he's so good to Zune. You're confusing me, Sacred, I want the next chapter now....already. I might actually start rooting for an Edward and Zune. What would that be, Zunward? EdZune? lol. Great Writing, I love it!!

Sacred, what happened!!! Zune is so going off the cliff and has jumped into a deep abyss that he's never coming back from. I mean, he should have seen this coming, Ed was so not just a friend, and the dates, and the coffee, and the secret messages and smiles, my poor Kevin!! :,) I actually want to beat the crap out of Zune, how could he let this happen. Alright, I'm done ranting, but seriously!!...I'm so happy this cliff hanger didn't get me....

Carol and Daryl were soooo cute together, that scene with the lipstick and hickeys was so much fun, I couldn't help laughing. And the cake situation, and Daryl the hottie, I want him. Hehe The letter from Kev was also really sweet, the way he kept repeating don't tear this up, I hope you're still reading this, poor Kev, I actually forgave him as well for the previous night and the horrible ending to a perfectly good date. A lot happens in this chapter, I can't believe Zune's mom! I mean, I dig the slap and the get out of my house, that made a lot of sense, but then the running after the guy and happily ever after....she needs meds.

I was feeling Zune's exhaustion by the end of this chapter. That was a lot of to happen in one night, he should have passed out somewhere between the crazy struggle and getting to the hospital. The rant at Kev was perfect, that scene was so emotional,...Kev totally deserved it. His excuses were very weak. Hard to compare him to Edward's heroic action. Carol's uncle, I don't understand guys like him. Really, Zune had a really rough night here.

Edward was surprising, I actually didn't expect that from him. He was such a hero I couldn't believe it. I'm sensing some sparks buried deep between Zune and Edward. I hope the police catch those bastards that hurt Edward so badly. Great chapter, very good with drama.

Cliffhanger!!! So happy the next chapter is already up, otherwise I'd be going nuts waiting. Can't believe you ended the chapter this way. Beautiful kiss scene, I agree with Lisa, Kev should have ran after Zune!! On to the next chapter.

Awesome date, I haven't been in a toys 'r' us in a very long time. Maybe I should check it out soon, lolz. Glad to help out, keep writing.

Leave he must, if I should be asked... Although tea master Ziyu might change his mind...you never know. Thanks for the review Stephen, glad you're enjoying it.

I want a cup of tea, that sounded like an awesome moment. Thanks for the review, its certainly a new kind of story than the other one. It's so much fun to write with the quotes in mind. hehe. Look forward to more.

Thank you, Joann. I'm glad it feels real, hoping the next chapter pushes them further along though and add some more prosperity.

I like that...gentle stream...made me smile. Thanks Daithi, look forward to more.

More tea stories coming up, I'll plot away this week and see what happens. Thanks for the review.

They were seated at one of the back tables in the tea house dining room. The afternoon sun streamed on to their secluded table through the open windows

Congrats KC!!!

So, my quota for likes ended at chapter eight, I wished there were more. I loved every bit of this story, I figured it would be better to write one long review. Mostly, I was too eager to get to the next chapter to pause... I think this is a real love story, real in the sense that Patrick and Ben are dealing with such real situations in life. All their questions, insecurities, mistakes and how much they can make you miss so much, I love how irrevocably real they are. This is a lovely story, and I love the ending. I couldn't help laughing through the part where Ben was dragging Patrick down the aisle. I was imagining a wedding had been planned without Patrick knowing. Wouldn't that have been fun?...lol.. Anyway, on a side note, the final chapter could use a larger font. Maybe a twelve. Other than that, thank you so very much for sharing Patrick and Ben's story. It is lovely.

Ziyu was bringing out a side in him he didn’t understand. “I’d ask you to leave, but,” Ziyu peeped over the rail and shuddered. San moved closer to the balustrade to see w hat was upsetting Ziyu. Curious glances from the customers below met his and he sighed. “Gossip mongers are making you tremble?” Ziyu stepped back and sta

I just wanted to share a small milestone with this story. GA readers have a special way of making my day and this morning I found that my story, Electric Blue & Catnip had actually reached 100 reviews. I did a little dance, and I sincerely thank you all who took the time to write reviews and your thoughts on each chapter. Despite the long waits in updates, (of which I'm working hard to correct) promise, and an editor who doesn't get tired reading a billion rewrites, I just wanted to say a very deep and sincere, Thank You for giving me 100 reviews. Sui.

Susuki...that's so awesome to hear, I feel bad for the doggies, but hey it was for excitement. Thank you for Josexi, that made me smile, really, I'm going to use that somewhere, too cute. I'm glad you love this story. It makes my day to know that, it really does. Look forward to more, and I look forward to your story too, keep posting it. Cheers, Sui.

Hmmm...trust you to see my evil laugh, and I was so hiding it...don't worry, it won't be drastic to make your heart stop, I promise.. I did scream therapy once, it's fantastic. Went home without a voice, but I was totally happy...lol. I'm glad you loved the chapter. More serious stuff on the way now...

Thank you so much. It will be interesting to see Alexi with his immediate family and how you'll compare that to his time with his grandparents. I look forward to that too...

The roller coaster ride was fun to write. Summer blues coming through here obviously...i want a vacation...lol.
