I’ll admit, I had a hard time figuring out what was really going on in this story, as it basically consists of mostly dialogue and little details. The summary doesn’t offer much insight to it either, so I was a little lost as I was reading this. I think you should go back in and add a couple of details (useless details, even; who’s hair is what color, what their dressed like, the atmosphere, stuff like that) and it would make the story much more easier to read and understand. Also, pasting it on Word would help, as you have a couple of grammar and punctuation issues as well. It’s nothing too serious, but you’d get a lot more readers and subs if your story was grammatically correct with the right punctuation. Just a couple of suggestions.
Overall, this was a nice little story. I wish you the best of luck with continuing it!
Now, as for the story itself, I think it's unnecessary to place "~James Slater~" or whoever's POV it is at the beginning of a chapter. If you really feel like adding that, you could always put it in the chapter's description. On chapter one I couldn't help but notice you wrote head instead of heard. You also ate some capitalization. A recurring error is the lack of commas at the end of dialog. i.e. "You really anger me." he said. I recommend proof reading before posting, proper grammar and spelling is extremely important.
Overall, I think this is an interesting romance story and I think it has a lot of potential. Blaire sounds incredibly shy while Slater seems like an overconfident guy. I wish you the best of luck and hope you don't lose inspiration with it. Best of luck!
