MY COMMENT
IT COMES
AND NOT IN THE DIRTY WAY, ZERO, YOU PERVERT
JUST WAIT... CHECK BACK HERE... IT'LL BE HERE. IT'S COOOMING.
---
They're heeere! (like Poltergiest, yknow? :tehe:) Except it would make more sense to say, It's heeere! So yeah. Hey.
Nick thinks he’ll never fall in love. He thinks he just moves around too much, he’s always too busy going from one place to another, whether if it was playing shows or doing speeches about fighting diabetes.
Perfect opening. I absolutely love how you summarized up Nick's life in just two sentences, his stance on love... all things that add meat to the story. All things important to the story. Taalented. ;)
And srs, Zero, my love belongs to Jemi as you well know, but I couldn't resist this story. I can't really resist anything that has to do with Demi. :shifty And I admit, Nemi has some good qualities... but in any case, you're a good writer so I'll put up with this mismatched pairing. :tehe:
It’s a smile and as far as Nick is concerned, a smile is a smile, and in the back of his mind, Demi’s smile is a smile and it’s beautiful.
:cheese: Beautiful line. And I love the focus on Demi's smile. My god, Demi's smile is just beautiful, and even if I didn't know that, after reading this story, I would have. And I would have known it well, because of your description.
She wants to fall in love – or she’s already fallen love.
The world's oldest story. I-love-you-and-you-could-love-me-but-you're-oblivious-to-my-love. And it works very well in this situation. Something I really loved about this story was that it was so realistic.
“Yeah,” Nick says, hand going up to tug on the curls that started just at his neck.
Ooooooooh. That bit about the curls just seemed really hot to me, for no particular reason. ~~
She doesn’t think he’ll notice – and she’s right.
That makes me want to slap Nick a little, but it's okay, he'll come around. Eventually. (y)
And now that Nick can’t seem to find some peace and sleep, he thinks about going over there with a sheepish smile on his face to say, “Hey, I couldn’t sleep.”
I love how you used this to explain why they're so comfortable with these late night talks. You pretty much explained their relationship without actually going through the motion of explaining it. Amazing.
forcing herself not to fall asleep again
That tells me a lot. About Demi, about how much she loves Nick and what she's willing to do for him... it's really quite beautiful.
When you started using 'and she's wrong', I knew there was gonna be some shit going down. And I got excited. And the Diet Coke thing... oh my god, I d'awwed sooo hard. That's so fucking cute akdjfa;lskj
And he says, “Oh you know – just this girl.”
Oh he's so adorably painfully obvious but at the same time if I was her I'd be just as unwilling to accept it.
“No, no – I know she wants to love.”
Oh Zero. That ending was just beauty. So sappy and cute and just amazing, the perfect you know, love. Ugh. Zero. You. Ugh. I love you. And this story. You have amazing talent. Ugh.
It's not quite detailed, but it's still a great write-up. I really did like the atmosphere of the two hopeless, wandering lovers- they're a pair. And the picture you put of both seems very appropriate to this kind of one-shot you wrote ^^ Plus! Plus! It seems realistic towards the end that Demi doesn't get who Nick loves. Hahaha! "Like I said, she's slow." I was grinning and being all like, 'Demi, you fool!' Then again, it's just s story o_o
I agree with writers above me - you haz talent :file:
