Hmm... so, hello there.
First of all, I'm going to say I legitimately hate the fact that you didn't finish this. I hate it. This story and all its installments made me the most emotional I've ever fucking been for a story and was just completely abandoned? No. I don't accept that. At all.
Perhaps you lost inspiration. Perhaps it was the lack of commenting but there are people like me out there still finding this and wondering, HOW DOES THIS END? They have been through so much and as I finished each installment, I was like, this has to have a happy ending right? But no, none of the three installments you completed did and it just keep going and like, I guess I admire you for that. I have never seen someone complete a series like this. Like kudos for keep on going like you did, and up until this last installment, on a pretty damn regular basis. Like you seemed to update multiple times within a week while other stories I have read and am currently reading, I feel like it's awesome to get an update every other week. So kudos to your dedication to writing; I honestly wish I, along with other writers I read from on here, had that.
But getting back to the emotional stuff... my God, did this have me crying VARIOUS times. Where as I occasionally come across a story that makes me cry once you made me cry at least twice with EACH INSTALLMENT. This last one wasn't as emotional seeing as you were just starting it and didn't finish, but if you ever do, I'm sure I'll be bawling.
You are such an amazing writer. I am deeply sad that this wasn't finished and upon looking through your stories list, very few of your stories have been. That's just an observation by quickly glancing at some; you may have finished a few but they weren't ones I was interested in reading.
I... I really hope you see this comment. I know it has been like, four years since you last posted for this but I am not giving up hope because this is by far the greatest series I have read on here. Like, by far. I have no idea what your interests are now, if you even still like ATL, but my suggestion is watch a few interviews and get inspired again because they are amazing people and just... you can't fall out of love with them. Not completely; even though I more recently started liking them as people I have been a fan of their music since Dear Maria.
Which brings up another point: I definitely wish I would've been into them when you were posting this story so I could have been an active commenter. I would've given you the comments you deserved; hell, I'd have commented multiple times just so you could have reached your goal each time. That is how much I love this story. It is seriously so beautiful, Mae and Alex's love for each other, and it's not very often that I find stories with romance in mind that they make the love SO FUCKING GENUINE. My God, this is part of the reason I cried so much; each time either he or Mae left the other I was like, "What the fuck are you doing? You love him/her!!"
God I am just so emotional right now typing this comment even, thinking back to all of my favorite parts. Like, why girl, why? Why did you not finish? I know I'm a total hypocrite for saying this considering there are a few stories of my own I haven't finished but... GAHHHH... this seriously makes me want to go back to them now and try to when I know there are people like me finding them and begging for an ending that never happened.
I honestly don't care if you rap this story up with one more chapter. I just need an ending and I don't know how I'm going to deal with this...
I told myself I wasn't going to start a story or series that hasn't been finished and updated in a few years, but guess what? I clearly did. But I don't really care that I broke that rule because this story was worth it. The first three installments were seriously amazing and I will never regret reading them.
This is a long comment and I could honestly keep going but I'm probably annoying you or majorly guilt-tripping you at this point so I'll stop. lol. But seriously, I really hope you get on again and see my comment. I promise there are people like me still finding this and if you did, by some miracle, continue this... I will be here. I'm sure there are others even still waiting around. If they're not they're honestly stupid because this story is worth it.
Hm, so yeah, I'm Jenna by the way. XD And to conclude, I just... I love this series. I may be checking out a few of your other series and/or stories since this one was so fucking amazing. I mean really. I'd be an idiot not to and plus I need another fix since I'm finished reading what you have of this one so far. lol.
But before I go I guess the most important thing I want to tell you is keep writing! Don't ever stop. I really hope you don't. If, sadly, you never do finish this... just promise me you'll continue writing on your own time. It could just be for yourself. But I know for sure I am buying your books one day if you ever do publish something. :)
<3 Obviously subscribed and recommended all four installments! :D
Dear Jenna,
I am truly sorry for how long it's been. I know it's been about four years since I updated this story. I really do miss writing. And now that you commented this huge novel in my comment section. It means so much, beyond words. Over the time I didn't write I guess you could say I grew up a little and a lot of things I got preoccupied with, but when I logged onto Mibba one day and saw your comment it made me remember how much I loved writing again and how I loved logging in everyday and receiving those comments. I know I should finish it, but apart of me really forgets bits and pieces that happened because it has been so long. What I am going to do tonight is read back over it a little and just catch up and hopefully have the next chapter out by this week. I have more spare time on my hands now. I feel like writing again would really relieve some of my stress. I do, in fact, still love All Time Low and Alex Gaskarth. I follow everything he posts everyday on facebook and instagram.. lol unfortunately I'm not as obsessed as I used to be, but I'll just have to find that obsession again. Don't worry I will finish this one. I'm promising you this. I do have an interesting group of stories and I bet you have noticed they mostly all end in some tragedies. Guess you will have to see how this one ends. I promise I will not disappoint you and sorry that I have, but I will get back onto where I left off. And your comment means so much. I am so ecstatic to hear that you felt this way about this series. It made me smile. So once again, thank you so much for your inspiring words to get me motivated again. And I will send you a message when the next chapter is out. :)
Sincerely,
Faith Tenderheart.
