I really wanted to slap Nick for staying silent on the phone but as I read on I understood why. Howie was right on the ball nd I am curious to see how you have Nick live with the Amish and Ana
Author's Response: LOL I know, I'm sure everyone was thinking the same thing! "Why didn't you say something?!" But I'm glad it made sense as you read further on. It was still stupid, but I guess he has his reasons. Thanks, Anita!

So now he is kind of stuck there, but I can see why he doesn't want to go back. Next chapter...
Author's Response: I'm glad it makes sense why he wouldn't want to go back. That was the part I was struggling with. Thanks, Tracy!

I forgot to review when I read this. Let me tell you that I was in no way expecting for Nick to just hang up without saying anything...you totally had me there! And while I can totally see why Nick might feel the way he does, he needs to get his shit together and just call again! Lol. And it's so genius to have him in the setting he's in now because he can't see the news or anything like that to know the truth about Kevin.
I loved the hospital scene. It was so well written and heartbreaking. Since Howie mentioned Nick potentially being on the phone...I wonder where they're gonna go from there? Great job yet again. Can't wait to see where you go next.
Author's Response: Thanks Sel! LOL I know... Nick's being a dumbass. But yeah... that's kinda where the Amish came into this whole idea, cause that was the only way it would work, if I could find a way to cut him off from contact with other people and put him with people who won't have a clue who he is. Glad you liked the hospital scene - thanks! The next chapter is started, but I've been kind of distracted with a new story idea I got that I can't get out of my head, so I haven't written anything on it in a few days. Hopefully soon!

Oh no! I can understand how he must feel, that he doesn't want anyone else getting hurt or dragged in to this. But I also feel bad for everyone else who thinks he's likely to be dead.
Hope Kevin's score gets better, but if he felt something, then that has to be a positive sign (I hope).
Can't wait for more, loving it!
Author's Response: Exactly... in his mind, he's protecting his loved ones, but he hasn't considered yet what he's doing to them by letting them think he's dead. Thanks so much for the review; glad you're still enjoying it! :)

You know what i think already, but I wanted to come in and tell you I love the direction this is taking. Nick is being Nick. His choice is one of the worst he can make, but I love that you really lay out what his train of thought is going into the idea of not telling the Boys where he is.
It may be repeating his mistakes, but in his mind, he's keeping the guys safe, his family safe, even his ex safe. So the intentions are good :).
Author's Response: Aww, thanks Rose! :) Silly, foolish Nick LOL. But like you said, his heart's in the right place.

Argh, I wanted to reach through my computer and punch Nick for not answering!! That damn kid!! Lol. But as I continued to read on, I guess I kinda understood his reasoning as to not wanting to contact anyone just yet. But man, when will he learn that him not saying anything in the first place was what helped land him where he was?! Damn you Nick!! Lol.
Loved how descriptive the hospital scene was, felt like I was actually there or something. Man, Kevin needs to pull through and wake up outta that coma, and fast!! Back to Nick though, I truly hope his decision won't bring trouble and harm to Analiese. She's such a sweetheart to remember that they're all children of God and to continue to extend her help out to him.
Author's Response: LOL I know... more dumb moves from Nick! But I tried to rationalize his decision, the way he was thinking about it anyway, so I'm glad you could kinda understand his reasoning. But yeah, he's basically making the same mistakes as before, right? LOL Thanks for the comments on the hospital scene too. Thanks for your whole review; I appreciate the detailed feedback you always give! :)

Aww great angsty chapter Julie. I loved how you expressed the emotion that Brian and Kevin's mom was feeling seeing him lying there in the bed. Also great job explaining the coma thing. You're always so good with all things medical. Also, you're a genius for making him be in Amish land. Can't wait to see what happens next.
Author's Response: Thanks Mare! I just use whatever background knowledge I have from books and ER and supplement it with lots and lots of Googling and Wikipedia LOL. I'm glad you like the Amish thing; I wasn't sure how well that would go over, but that was a big part of the whole premise of the story, so I'm glad it's been well-received! Thanks so much for reading and reviewing! =D
