Gah, I'm in love with this story.
It's got so much depth to it cuz you put in all these different elements of loss and pain, as opposed to the typical "oh I'm so sad" kind of bullshit. And I think that's great, cuz it's realistic, ya know?
When you lose someone close to you, there's a lot of different emotions that go along with it.
What I got out of this chapter was that feeling of being afraid to move on without the one you've lost. I mean, it's obviously a difficult thing to think about, cuz you don't want to imagine a world without then person, but then again, you know you can't mourn forever.
I really connected with it, cuz I actually felt really bad about moving on when Jimmy died. I didn't even know him, yet I felt guilty about being happy or enjoying things when such a horrible tragedy was going on at the same time. But of course, it's a lot worse in this case.
She wants to be happy with her friends cuz she knows it's what Jimmy would want, but she hates the fact that he'll never be a part of all of it again, although, he's always in their hearts.
IDK, I'm rambling, but the point is that I love it!
This is so heartfelt and wonderful. I'm really enjoying reading it. :]
I mean, the others were great because there was so much power & emotion in the messages you were trying to convey, but I thought it was really interesting to get to see the beginning of the relationship, like how they met and how it evolved from there.
Obviously, it was a nice change from the more somber aspects of the story.
Not only that, but it was fucking adorable!
Within minutes of meeting each other, Jimmy and Kay had this really nice connection between them that made it so they could talk like they've known each other for years & I think that kind of shit is as sweet as it gets. Plus, it was cute how they were flirting and how Jimmy was talking about his band and being famous. It's so awesome, cuz he turned out more successful than anyone could have ever imagined. :D
And of course, Jimmy and Kaela ended up having something really special, which is sad when you think about the future and shit like that, but at least it's nice to see how fun and romantic things were at the beginning. I mean, you can see why Kay loves him so much.
Anyway, I thought this was fucking fantastic.
And I can't wait for you to post some more!
Straight up, I love this story! <3
