Yay! I'm glad she's going to Florida. It'll be a nice break from Matt... probably will put things into perspective for her. She should seriously take the plunge and break up with Matt. She should try and see where things go with Nick, and if it doesn't work out, then that's okay. It would be better than marrying into a loveless marriage. I'm excited to see what happens in Florida! Great update darlin!
Author's Response: Thanks! I'm glad she's going to Florida too, it'll be so fun to write :) I agree 100%, of course my characters never end up doing what I want them to..

and i really like the alternating from past to present. it gives a good contrast and makes you appreciate their changes and new found maturity that much more.
Author's Response: Thanks again :) it makes the story a bit more interesting to write, since theres a couple different plot lines happening it keeps things interesting. I'm glad that you like the contrast between the characters

Author's Response: Thanks! Nick is super cute in the present day :) I'm really excited to write them together in Florida!

Heh blonde wonder... love that nickname, made me chuckle. These flashback chapters are painful to read because Ashleigh is so damn naive and blind and it's sad cause we know she's going to get her heart broken. The last scene with her and her friends was priceless however. I know why Joey would be annoyed, but I can completely understand Ashleigh's excitement. I think I would go off bragging too! It's still sad though cause Joey and Ashleigh took this trip together, to hang out and have fun as friends, and Joey's being ditched left and right, poor girl.
Great update girlie!
Author's Response: Thanks! I stole that nickname from Oreos For Breakfast hehe, so I can't really take credit for it. The flashbacks are hard for me to write, because in planning out this story originally each chapter had a clear purpose... and then the present stuff got longer so I had to invent some filler for the past. It does suck for Joey, but you're right, Ashleigh's excitement is warranted. Thanks for reading and reviewing hun! :)

awesom e story can't wait for the rest of it way to go...really good reading
Author's Response: Thank you! I'll probably have another chapter up sometime today :)

ooooh. love it. go to florida! go to florida! matt will probably have something to do anyway! cant wait for more.
Author's Response: Thanks! Yeah, he probably wouldn't even notice Ashleigh was gone :P

I wish that'd Asheligh would tell Matt, but you know what? For all we know, with all of these meetings that Matt is having to attend, he could be cheating just as well. Hm, I can totally tell that Asheligh and Nick belong together. There's something there between them and they need to act on it. I hope that Asheligh will take up the offer on visiting Nick. That would be wonderful.
I can definitely see the difference between the past and the present, especially since you've been doing every other chapter with it. I feel as if I have a plenty enough idea of how the past used to be. So, I definitely had to say that these -like this one- are my favorites. I could do without the other ones, haha. I hope that you'll write more of this soon. It's great. :D
Author's Response: Ergh, I hate writing the past as much as your guys are probably bored of reading it. But it's been alternating since the beginning so I don't really want to kind of..stop. lol.. plus there's still the matter of them leaving the tour and Ashleigh flipping out because Nick never called her and all that fun stuff. But yeah... I like these chapters a lot more too ^.^ (Notice how they are usually double the size? hehe These ones are way more fun to write!)rnrnWhat you said is true, we don't know much at all about Matt's character. I thought about putting some more scenes with him in, but they didn't really seem necessary to me. We know Ashleigh has feelings for Nick, and we know she's engaged to some guy that's too busy to give her the time of day, and that's all we really need to know, I think. Thanks so much for reading and reviewing. I promise to write more soon :)

Love the update, write more soon.
Author's Response: Thanks! I'll try! :)

I really love your writing. It flows so incredibly well, which is not what I can say for a lot of other writers. Usually it's really choppy you know? And anyway, this chapter was amazing. I don't know what it is, but I felt like grinning and giggling like a fool throughout the entire thing because it's just THAT damn cute! Nick calling her constantly? Cute. Ashleigh trying to convince herself that Nick isn't affecting her life when he clearly is? Cute. Ashleigh's little flash back and Nick saying "I missed you"? Freaking ADORABLE! I love these two. I so want her to go to Florida! And Joey's amazing. She's a good friend.
As for Ashleigh not wanting to end things with Matt because she's afraid she'll end up alone, I totally understand that. It totally relates to my real life (not the cheating part, but being with a guy for a really long time and them not being the right one for you). So I'm just hoping she comes to the realization that she'd be happier without Matt, even if it's not with Nick, because Joey brings up a good point. If things are so good between them, then Ashleigh wouldn't be having these feelings in the first place. Sticky sitch, but I love it!
Great job love. I'm really excited to see what's next! If only I can get my ass into gear and update lol
Author's Response: Thank you! I'm glad you like my writing style, it took me a long time to get to this point. Lots and lots of fan fics! Ashleigh and Nick are super cute, aren't they? They really have overtaken the story and pulled it in entirely another direction than I was planning for it to go. I'm glad you understand Ashleigh's reluctance to break up with Matt. I guess she's not much of a risk taker. It seems like she was okay with how things were going. Not entirely happy.. but okay with the situation. Now it could either go one way or the other and she doesn't really want to risk that.. Thanks again for reading/reviewing! Your reviews always make me smile. I was so excited that I had a five day weekend, I had to come home and update :) My goal is to finish this my the end of the month, but with moving and more exams, we'll see how it goes..rnrnAnd yes, you should update too! :D

eek. nick is horrible. just tagging her along like that. and granted shes not much either at this point. shes too clingy and well fan like. good thing she has definitely matured. a lot. cant wait for more.
Author's Response: yeah, Nick and Ashleigh are both pretty immature at this point, albeit in different ways, but still.. it's hard to write them like this when they've both grown up so much. Thanks for the review :)
