Wow. Okay. I've read A LOT of your stuff, but I have to admit... I teared up. MORE than once. Cal, that was AWESOME. =) You put so much emotion into what you write, and I absolutely love it. Just amazing. <3

Okay, I loved this. I think it was very good and I liked the plot. You can take something that most consider to be a cliche and make it into something new, which I really love about your writing. As you know, I was worried she was going to ditch Zacky and go back to Matt out of habit, and I think a part of her might have had Matt not basically admitted that it was over. I was really surprised about the ending too. I mean, as soon as she called in the Vegas tickets, I figured they might get hitched, but I wasn't expecting the baby. So very well done!
Great ending! I like that yours was different from most others. The bit with Matt was a good change of pace and it really made the story that much better.
I really liked the way you wrote her breaking up with Matt. I thought she was going to scream at him, maybe hit or something (a taste of his own medicine), but she didn't, which was kind of neat. She was calm about it, even if she was emotionally a wreck (and who wouldn't be?). It really made the chapter flow and I like how she handled things. Well done!
The more gentle sex was very well-written, even though I know you had some trouble with it while writing it. It turned out very good and you could get the feel for their emotions for each other very well.
I'm interested into seeing what she's up to, just leaving like that. This comment is kind of sucking by the way >.< and for that I'm sorry lol. It by all means does not reflect upon the chapter, because it was awesome. I also agree with Aightball that the sex needed to be gentle in order for it to work here, plus it also brought her the comfort she needed.
Something tells me that one of two scenarios are about to play out: 1. She's on her way back to Matt or 2. She's leaving town. I'd bet she's doing number two, however, just by how the chapter ended.
I like the way you wrote this chapter. Zach is being gentle with her, yet he still has some feelings for her and those show through. Because the events of the night, she's in shock, of course, and just needs whatever kind of comfort her body craves. The way you brought that out really made the chapter for me. I can't wait to see what more you have in store.
Just like every story I've ever read... AMAZING! I cannot WAIT to read more!! I could feel every emotion and... oh, wow. It's just... you're incredible. =)
I agree, even without long descriptive paragraphs, you do manage to really paint the picture of whatever is going on in my head with the simplest of details. Jimmy cracked me up and Zack's just a total sweetheart, you know, when he's not being filthy in the bathroom with Cali haha :P.
