I'm so glad that you liked the update! I was anticipating losing a lot of readers because I took that brief absence, but I'm happy to see that I did not. :)
Ahh, I'm so glad that you found the sequel. I was so worried that I lost a lot of my readers for whatever reason, but I'm beyond relieved that you're still sticking with me. It means the world to me. Thank you so, so much! :)
Oof, I am so sorry I didn't respond to your last comment! I must have overlooked it, but don't worry- I still read it and appreciated it from the bottom of my heart. I am truly so, so appreciative of the time that you spend reading and commenting every chapter. It makes all of the time and effort I put into this story worth it to know that I'm making other people happy with my words. :)
I also might have had a *little* too much fun writing the fluff scenes- I enjoy them far too much for it to be considered healthy, haha.
I think hearing that I've made people cry/almost cry is a bittersweet feeling for me. Like I feel badly for putting them through that emotionally but it's nice to know that my writing can bring them to that. If that makes any sense...
I'm so happy that you're enjoying the story though. It truly means the world to me that you're taking the time to comment and let me know how I'm doing. It keeps me motivated. :)
I know giving birth to a stillborn is absolutely horrid. My aunt had two miscarriages in a row and she was absolutely devastated by it understandably. I also had a sibling who was born with the cord wrapped around his neck. Luckily he survived, but it was so scary. I cannot even begin to imagine how it must feel to lose a child to such traumatic events. Hopefully I can do it justice. And I'm awfully sorry to hear about your family member's loss- it's so horrid to sit there and watch someone struggle through something like this.
And shh, don't tell anyone. But yes, Lily opts to stay in Germany to help Cara/Christoph instead of going back to her career in the states. ;)
I cannot even express to you how much I appreciate your comment, which is ironic because I am a writer, soo... Regardless, I am beyond thrilled that you like my little story so much and I appreciate your feedback so, so much. It truly means the world to me to get a proper response instead of the typical 'update soon!' type of things.
I'm just off to lecture now, but I'll update when I get home. I promise. Thank you so much!
Haha, that would be fantastic and amusing, not going to lie. And it means a lot that you're willing to sit down and write out six different comments if it means me updating. Thankfully this time around I got seven comments, so I'm polishing up the next chapter now and hope to post tonight before I go out.
Hello.
I see you like We The Kings? :)
I'm currently writing a new Travis Clark fic - a pre-story of a one-shot I wrote about him and it would totally mean the world if you'd read & comment on it? :)
Thank you!

I was so relieved at your comment because I was really worried that it was like cutesy/fluff overload. And the next three or four chapters, depending on how much I end up editing out, are all Bill and Lily moments so I didn't want to overwhelm everyone and just go overboard. But I'm so happy that you didn't think so. :)
I got a really big smile on my face reading over your comment. I love when readers give me really solid feedback and it excites me to no end when I hear about how much someone likes my writing. I feel so repetitive saying this, but I really am so appreciative of your time and kind words. :)
Thank you! I'm so pleased that you like my little story and it means a lot that you've taken the time to comment. It's always exciting for me to see comments from new readers. :)
