Haha, by small how small are you talking? I learned the hard way that small in Saskatchewan and small in the states are two very different numbers lol. I graduated in a public school with a class of 31, and that's a big class lol. And it's okay... I kind of have a secret love for them too... I don't know what it is, but I was THE biggest Jonas Brothers fan ever; I've kind of simmered down lately, but it's there haha. I started running out of stuff at the library and our small town library sucked, so that's when I started really, really writing. And from writing creative stories I got into poetry, and that's how I got started songwriting, which has been one of the best things to ever happen to me - my song just came out on iTunes yesterday :)

Oh I know - I can't believe I didn't know about Mibba YEARS ago - I've always been a huge creative writer and I read basically every fiction book in the library at our school by the ninth grade (In my defense our school is small and so is our library!) and that's when I really got into FanFiction.net and Quizilla, then when I found this I was like BINGO!! And I've never looked back :) I had a lot of problems trying to post stuff on FanFiction, so this was a way better and MUCH easier to use option :)

That's awesome! I used to go on Quizilla ALL THE TIME back in the day lol. I don't even know what my username is anymore, but then they changed the site and it got all confusing, and then a bunch of stuff started happening in my life so I kind of stopped writing for fun. And I totally understand the feeling - I found a story I'd started reading months ago but forgot to subscribe to, and I did a happy dance before catching up! I know the feeling!! :)

I definitely agree - I think it's safe to say James had a hellish part of a season that first one he was here. It should be a little easier for Sutter, getting some time to adjust and move instead of being thrown into a new city and team in the middle of the season, and it would never hurt for him to have a bow-out offensive season either! :)

I'm just worried for Sutter's sake that those comparisons will be there and it will make it harder on him, you know? From what I can tell he's a bit of a defensive forward, which is similar to Jordan, but I think he'll fit better into a more typical "third line center" role, whereas Jordan was definitely a first or second line center being confined to that role for most of his career in Pittsburgh, so Sutter will probably be used a little differently, but I'm hoping he'll do a good job!

Yeah, I know what you mean - that's where he wants to be and where he should be - he's so much closer to Jared and in the same city now as Eric, it's definitely the place he wants to make home and where he wants to have his family, so I'm happy for him. It just sucks that he's not a Penguin anymore - I'll probably gripe about that forever lol! I think Brandon Sutter will be a really good addition to the Pens - I just hope the pressure and expectation isn't too overwhelming for him. He plays similarly to Jordan, but he's not Jordan so I hope people aren't negative about him because of that

OH MY GOD ASDLFKJDSGHSDLJFA!!!!

I have no words for how exciting that is!! :) EEPS!!

And I'm a little torn - I think I may have to order a Jordan Staal Hurricanes T-shirt now - I just can't let him go! I really wish he was still a Penguin, to have my two favorites together, but DAMN, Carolina's going to have some stacked Staal-ness going on this year!

Thanks! I loved reading your comment - as usual! I really enjoyed writing this chapter too... and be on the look out for more Stepan

In other news... in my writing of my sequel for Who Wouldn't Want To Be Me? guess who just made her first appearance??

Thank you so much for all of your comments on my stories - they always make my day and I absolutely love reading them!!

And as for Jared and Kassidy... we shall see what happens! I have the whole story written up so I can focus on writing the "Who Wouldn't Want To Be Me" sequel, and then the whole "This Ain't A FairyTale" kinda popped into my head and is also slowing production on it... I need to figure out how to do things one step at a time!

You know I love your comments!! I wasn't really sure if there would be enough interest in it for me to even do a sequel - I love Jared Staal probably just as much as Jordan (Who is my favorite player as well as probably my biggest crush ever) but there doesn't seem to be a lot of interest in him as far as fan fiction and all of that goes. I attribute that to the fact that he probably isn't as well known as a person because he isn't in the limelight a lot, but that's something I kept in mind.

So thanks so much for the huge review of both stories - I really didn't mean to name the story after a Nick Jonas Song (I didn't know he had a song named that!) and it's actually from a song that I wrote a LONG time ago that made me think of it. And I really liked the idea as it inspired the whole story, even though I had basically quit it about five chapters in because I thought I was doing a poor job and I'd kind of lost the inspiration and direction of the story.

Sorry this is so long - as you know from my Jordan story I'm definitely long winded! So thanks :)

OOOOOOHHHHHHHHHH!!! Now I see the method to your madness. :-)

Oh I am not dissing your amazing comments, and I know that they all should get kick ass reviews like yours.... I'm just jelous that I'm not as amazing as you. That's all. :-)

You just had to crush my review... I mean I know I'll never live up to your awesome comments but still... really had to go and make me look bad. :-P Damn good thing I love you.

Yay! :) So you can kind of make the character whoever/however you want - name, looks, interests, etcetera! It's so awesome when I look through the comments and get to read yours because they are so helpful - you give awesome feedback and constructive criticism, and you definitely aren't scared to tell me how it is! It's so nice to have that, especially when I have nobody on my end reading any of this or looking it over to give me a different perspective!

And if you get James in real life you'll have to get him to send Jordan my way ;) or, you know, Jordan's little brother... I'd be more than happy with that too! lol

I know! Jared needs a girl and so does Neal!

You've been so awesome and supportive through this story - I have no words that would truly express how thankful I am for all of your help and criticism!

So... I have a proposition for you... could I perhaps make a character (inspired by you - or however you want me to make this character) that I could slip in and perhaps turn into James' love interest?

Firstly, thank you so much for the lovely long comment. ;) It's nice to see you on Mibba!

I'm glad that you like Second Chance, but I'm more glad that you can see the improvement between the two! XD That's always something I'm working on, obviously. And don't be jealous. =P You're amazing.

And thank you for the suggestion! I realise that I've been leaving Gena out a bit too much (entirely unintentional!) but I do have plans for her, so you'll definitely be seeing more of her. =P I don't plan on writing any chapters from her point of view (I don't really like disrupting my flow) but I hope you'll get a better idea of what she's thinking from what you see of her.

Again, thank you! =) I do hope you continue to enjoy!

Hey you!! I miss seeing you every day of my life!! I love you! Your fictional life is pretty boring right now and as soon as I can I will be up to see you!! :-)

Thank you for the comment on Carry You!

I'm really glad you enjoyed the 'sneak peak' that was the first chapter, I really enjoyed writing it and I think it truly set the tone for the sequel. In Breathe Me the plot was really centered around Sophia and Kris' happy relationship, and while I really enjoyed writing those cute, fluffy scenes, relationships can't always be perfect.

I honestly didn't even know how much I described Kris' pretty brown eyes until you pointed it out (seriously though! They're so beautiful ). As a writer I always try to make the characters come to life, so to hear that I'm doing a good job on that is just relieving!

I hope you enjoy the sequel and continue to comment, because you really give the best comments that are just filled with so much feedback and opinions. :]

Thank you, I really value your opinion!

As for Jordan and his hatred towards Ariana, there is definitely a motive and he doesn't hate her just for the hell of it. As a writer, I love to annoy people and just keep the mystery going as long as I can xD (a lot of people don't exactly like that), I've been getting so many messages, people asking me why he hates Ariana and the mystery behind their 'relationship'.

I also do enjoy writing in Craig's POV, I totally agree when you say he has the big brother type of personality, and is just trying to help Ariana throughout all of her struggles. James doesn't really get that though; that Ariana kind of depends on Craig to pick her up when she's down, so I think I should include that in the story as well.

Thanks for also commenting on Breathe Me! I'm glad you enjoyed the last chapter and you're looking forward to the sequel. I have so much planned for it, I don't even know where to start. There's definitely going to be drama though!

Thanks for the comment on my Nealer and Letang stories!

I honestly love your comments so much because they're detailed and you actually specify what part of the story you enjoyed the most, and you always evaluate the character, I love it and I look forward to your comments! I'm not quite sure yet, but in the next Neal update I was either going to put in Craig's POV again, or Jordan's (I'm still contemplating haha).

Thank you so much for reading my stories, I'm glad you enjoy them. :D
