    @ JamieAllOver.
    Yeah, im from the UK so some times writing as an American is a little tricky because your words are a lot different to mine, but I totally understand what you mean. Thanks for letting me know. It really helps :)

    this is a cute story and all, but there're a few things:
    •this fic, to me at least, moves extraordinarily fast. they're in love after a single day?? they move in with no prior planning?? they fly across the ocean on about twelve hours notice??
    •zack, in the character info, is listed as straight yet appears to be gay
    •both rian and zack have kind of just... disappeared?
    •it says jack graduated in the spring, then goes on spring break? a spring break that lasts more than a month?
    •maybe it's just me, but i don't think any mother would suggest her son and sons boyfriend have sex, never mind so much as approve of that kind of relationship?? it just doesn't sound very... plausible??
    •you use 'led' in place of words like lied, lay, laying, etc.
    •a lot of words like 'ourselves' 'wherever' 'whenever' or 'himself' you put spaces in between, and 'his self' doesn't make any sense unless saying something along the lines of 'his self-esteem'
    •a lot of random words are capitalized throughout, and there are commas placed where they shouldn't be
    •you use ' in place of a ". a friend said that's how people in different countries indicate dialogue, so maybe that's just the case
    •in your third person pov, you go back and forth between third and first a few times

    from what i can see, you live over in the UK, and the whole 'grammar rule' thing may be different, so feel free to ignore me if that's the case

    Okay, I'm getting rid of Merrikat as we speak!!!!! You guys are obviously lusting over Jalex (so am I!) so I'll see what I can muster up to get them back together ;) I think you'll be pleasantly surprised... Wink
