*grabs soda and snacks before settling in for a night of reading this story*
Author's Response: Aww thanks!! I looked at my review page and I'm like "holy crap In Pieces did not have that many reviews before!" so thanks for reading!!! I hope you enjoy it :)

Aww... Very cute ending! LOL Yea that has to be awkward when they explain how they met... "Yea... Uhh I used to be a Backstreet groupie..." LOL I lnow you mentioned you had a few ideas for a sequel which I think might be interesting as long as you have substantial ideas. So many authors just write sequels cuz duh its what you do and really it's nothing new. I'm going to check out your new story now.
Author's Response: Thanks Mel! I'm still iffy on the sequel, but there's some potential there I think. They do live on opposite sides of the country and the other BSB are probably going to be thinking "ummmm wtf" not knowing that Ashleigh's really grown up and matured at all, you know? Plus she's just gotten out of an engagement , but ehn.. I don't really know if that's enough for a full story. If inspiration strikes and I find I really miss them I may write it, but I don't want overkill. Plus I'm totally wrapped up in this new story lol. Thanks again :D

yay! i didnt think it would be over so quick so that was surprising. A sequel would be great. or anything else you start ill definitely be reading. im glad you wrote them together. great job!
Author's Response: Thanks! I'm glad I wrote them together too :) I will be starting something new in the very near future! Thanks again Mary!! *hugs*

Saka! I'm all teary eyed right now. What an incredibly sweet chapter and ending. It was perfect. I read your Thank Yous and whatnot and how you thought it was dorky to put In Pieces in here, but I think it's fitting (but that's the romantic in me... I love that gushy stuff). I love how you ended it with New Years, because it signifies a new beginning for the both of them as individuals and them as a couple. Perfect, perfect, perfect. They're so damn cute together. I loved this story so much. It'll be weird coming on here everyday and not getting an update... but, uh, if you do a sequel, that'll sorta be fixed... won't it? *hint hint* lol! Fantastic job Saka! Congrats on finishing it up :)
Author's Response: Thanks Dani! I thought New Years would be fitting, since it is a new beginning for then. Plus, it's uber romantic. I'm so glad you liked the ending! It was a struggle for me to figure out how to end it for a while, but once I did this idea just came to me. I can assure you there will still be constant updates, of what.. I'm not too sure yet. Thanks for being such a consistent reader dude!

Awwww, so sad. Nick's a total jerkface. I'm happy Ashleigh apologized to Joey, even though Joey didn't really ever show her annoyance/hurt for Ashleigh ditching her like she did. They have a good friendship and you show that very well. Hopefully now that it's been about a month, Ashleigh will start to move on. Gah! Stupid Nick. Can't wait for the next chapter girlie!
Author's Response: Nick is such a total jerkface. I figured that having Ashleigh apologize to Joey would be kind of a first step showing how she's beginning to mature a little. I'm glad you liked it, Dani! This chapter has been in my head since I first started writing this story. Thanks for reviewing :)
Date: 02/21/08 06:25 pm Title: Chapter 25
Aww... So I'm finally caught back up again now that the story is nearly over. (Sorry I've been busy and not been able tp keep up with the updates) but I just want to say I freakin love this story! It's really amazing seeing Ashleigh's growth from the obsessed teeny that you want to strangle sometimes lol to a mature young woman who could actually feasibly have a relationship with Nick and love him for being Nick and not Nick the Backstreet Boy.
The last few chapters in particular have been pretty intense. I loved how she told Matt off especially when he started putting her down and calling her immature and stuff. It really showed that she has no regrets and she believes she's doing the right thing. I also thought it very fitting that Matt would destroy all her BSB stuff. Yea, it was really messed up, but kind of symbolic in a way. I felt it needed to be done for Ashleigh to finally move away from being that eighteen year old teenybopper. I think this truly is a new beginning for her. Great job!
Author's Response: Thanks so much, Mel! It really means a lot to me that you liked it, since I see a lot of growth in your characters as well. I look up to you a lot as an author, so it makes me all warm and fuzzy inside that you think I pulled this off well :D The last few chapters got written fairly easily and quickly since I had such a clear idea of what I wanted to happen in them. The fact that Matt destroyed her BSB stuff was kind of thrown in there for comic relief, but you're right it is symbolic in a way. I'm glad she's finally grown up as well, though she and Nick are still going to have their fair share of problems what with them living on opposite ends of the country. Thanks again Mel! I'll post the Epilogue later on tonight :)

Author's Response: Thank you! I'm totally on an update roll, it's great hehe..(even if it is exam time lol) I'm glad she realized it too. It was a learning experience, and now we know that it did turn out well in the end. Thanks again mary :)

I just left you a review, and it completely cut it off, so I deleted it and am writing you a new one lol The part where she says "I'm not fucking crazy. I am, however, fucking Nick Carter". Absolutely hilarious! I laughed out loud lol! This fight scene was so fun to read and Matt's such a douchebag. How immature is he to destroy her stuff? Ashleigh definitely made the right decision. And thank God for Joey. Every girl needs a friend like that. I looooooved this chapter Saka! Your writing is wonderful :)
Author's Response: aww Dani, I hate it when the internet cuts off my responses. Thanks for taking the time to write again hehe. I had so much fun writing their argument, I'd been waiting to do this scene for a few weeks hehe. Very exciting stuff. I thought about having him throwing her Never Gone CD out the window, but I thought that might just be a little bit too much haha. Joey is wonderful, isn't she? I'm glad you liked this chapter! It's definitely one of my favourites :)
