Come on, Nick, come on! Just tell the man!

Anyway, Baylee's adorable as a 12 year old. Googling and all lol You know, I bet he'll love the "old ladies" even when he's 12, as long as they pay him attention :P

Awesome update, can't wait for the next!

Author's Response: He's trying. Baby steps LOL. Dude I see Baylee as such a ham when he's older...but hating like the creepy crazy fans LOL. Thanks!

Awww, I'm glad Brian's helping Nick out so much. It's nice to see for once lol Pink hair...well, since he already has Alzheimer's, I guess dying his hair is naturally the next step for most people who are the usual age for Alzheimer's patients lol

Poor AJ.

Author's Response: Thanks! :) lmao @the idea of Nick dying his hair following the steps of most Alzheimer's patients. I didn't even think of that. I think Brian's faith has a lot to do with why he's able to cope with this and be there for Nick so much. As for AJ :( I wanted to hug him.

Guilty Roads by RokofAges75 Rated: R [ - ]
Summary:

It was the fall of 1999, and the Backstreet Boys were in the midst of their sold-out Into the Millennium tour, when Nick Carter went out for a late night walk on the town. His biggest worry was that he would run into fans, but instead, he crossed paths with real danger. What he witnessed that night would forever change his life, and the Backstreet Boys would never be the same.

Yay! Glad you wrote so fast and finally updated this story! I like how you showed Nick's thought process, and how he and Analiese were thinking along the same lines but came up with two totally different solutions. Cute :) I'm not sure about Lukaas or her dad yet, but I think it's going to be a lot of fun watching Nick try to do some manual labor lol Good times are in store, I'm sure. Of course, I'm also itching to find out what happened to Kevin! Next chapter? Please?

Author's Response: Thanks Sarah! It was important to me to show Nick's thought process and have it make some kind of justifiable sense, even if we, knowing the whole story, can see that his thinking is flawed. I think it's going to be fun writing him in this whole different world too. I'm sure I will get some Kevin in, if not the next chapter, then hopefully the chapter after. Thanks again for the review!!

Weird. Your story didn't show up on the Most Recent page :( Anyway, I don't know why you worry about feedback, Mare! You're way harsh on yourself! I mean, what if your readers are flakes like me, where we only review every so often when we find the time? I read three updates of yours at once just because my brain is overloaded with school, but that doesn't mean I'm not reading it! Lighten up on yourself, Mare! This story is excellent, especially now that Kevin is missing and the briefcase is out there somewhere *dun dun dun* Anyway, it was nice seeing AJ and Nick's relationship, and how they all went outside with Nick when he was feeling anxious. IDK what they're going to do now without Kevin, but I'm looking forward to your next update!

Author's Response: Yeah, my story isn't showing up on most recent. I keep getting weird error messages. I'm not sure what it is about this story. I have never been as hard on myself with any other one for some reason. I just don't have the fanfic writing confidence I used to have I guess? I'm in a weird funk. It's like this story is playing with my mind or something. lol I have no idea. I wish I could explain it. It's stupid, I know lol I need some paxil. I think Nick's anxiety in this story is just rubbing off on me. Hopefully nothing else will. I don't need some psycho setting anything on fire. :OP

I read it! Between you, Julie, and Julilly, you will manage to suck me back into a fanfic-dom that I thought I'd left a year and a half ago! GAH.

Anyway, I really love this story. I can't figure out if the doorknob jiggling was just an anxiety-induced hallucination or what...and this dream! Is it something that happened when he was young that he doesn't remember, and the killer is now back to get him? I don't know! I do know that you should update again. SOON!

Author's Response: LOL I didn't mean to guilt you into reviewing me, but you know I DID make you cookies! Thanks Sarah.

OMG OMG. Mare! Come back here right now! Sunday is too far away!

Ok, so Nick and his dad went into a witness protection program after something crazy happened. His dad's name is really Andrew, or maybe Nick's is? I don't know! Mare! Come baaaaackkkk!!!

Author's Response: lmao wow Sarah! That was fast!! You know me, I have to act like this is a show so new episode on Sunday night! ;O) It won't even be a repeat!

Maaaareeeee. What the heck is going on? I am more confused now than before, but I'm pretty sure that Nick and his dad ended up in some sort of Witness Protection Program. Of course, I'm starting to think that his dad was a bad guy, but who knows? (Besides you, I mean lol) Anyway, thanks a lot. You've left me wondering and with more questions than answers, but I guess I'll just have to wait for Monday.

LOL at Howie's wink showing up in every story, it seems :P



Author's Response:

Yup, I guess I have to include a winking Howie in every story. Sorry you're confused. Hopefully as we go along things will start making more sense for you. Thanks for reading Sarah!

I'm going to empathize with Kevin there, and say that you almost gave ME a heart attack when Nick jumped off the stage into a pack of girls lol Nice chapter, kinda creepy starting it with Nick almost leaping to his doom, and now I feel bad for him because his nightmare's edging into his real life.

Also LOL: "Brian was probably someone’s pet monkey in a previous life." This is such a Mare-type thing to say lol



Author's Response:

LOL yes it is a Mare thing, isn't it? Poor Kevin and you. Thanks for the review! You are fast!

So, after reading the past 4 chapters, I've decided that I'm still super confused. At least creepy guy has a name and isn't so creepy anymore. I'm also thinking that Bob is tied up somewhere...or dead, but, you know, I'm going to stay positive here!

Glad I decided to start with this story! It was good...but now it's getting even better as we get into the story. Good luck with school and those kids and the heat!

Author's Response: Thanks? lol I hope it cools off, seriously i'm ready for fall! Thanks for reading! Hope school is going well for you too!

Look, Mare. You can't just do things like that. You can't just say that the dreams were the "most terrifying and vivid yet" and expect us to be all hunky dory, okie dokie we'll wait until the next update! GOSH MARE.
Poor Jane. I didn't really like her anyway. I'm just waiting for Max to get attacked or something. IDK. I bet Bob's alive...unless you've gone all dark and evil on us and he's really swimming with the fishes.
Merry Christmas, Nick! Santa brought you one dead dad and a murdered therapist. Ho ho ho...

Author's Response: LOL what can i say? I have my own little dark side. That ws kind of a mean cliffy, huh? Ho ho ho... thanks Sarah! :O) Don't let those bed bugs bite!

DUN DUN DUN...

Why couldn't they have just opened the door in this chapter? Why'd you have to go and make it a cliffhanger? Also, sometimes, I wonder if Nick's opinions about some things are really MARE's opinions lol Like the whole putting your hand above your eyes to look for something...is that a Mare-ism? :P

Yay! I reviewed on time :)

Author's Response: But if they opened the door you'd know what was on the other side. Why would I want you to know what's on the other side? Silly Sarah! And yes, maybe a few NIck-isms are Mare-isms lol maybe? Thanks for reading!

I'm going to apologize ahead of time for being a bad reader because I've been reading this story since you posted chapter 7 and i have yet to comment :( Of course, you can ask Julilly how I feel about this AWESOME story because I've been twittering away about it.

you have an awesome writing style, a terrific plot, and you keep me trapped between wanting Amanda to drown in the rapids and wanting to like her a little for feeling guilty about what she's doing. Personally, I really dislike her, but whatever.

And OMG WHY does Brian have a death wish? He could at least hold on until he sees Leighanne and Baylee, can't he? He's always been my fave to write and read about, and this is one of the most unique characterizations of him that I've read. It's awesome!

Also, I quit reading/writing BSB fanfic, but you've sucked me back in. Great, great job!

P.S. I love that you update so fast! It keeps me on my toes :P

Author's Response: Thanks for finally reviewing! I'm glad to hear you're enjoying the story. Brian is one of my favorites to read/write about, too. I've always found him to be really interesting as a "sidekick" to Nick. This particular characterization of Brian is a lot mellower than I tend to write him due to the situation. Brian's usually more how he and Nick are when they're goofing off (i.e., when they're making fun of Pat for example). I'm glad to revive your fan-fic interest! Keep reading - I update everyday... :)

Welp. I suppose the shit hath hitteth the fan...or will now. Amanda, boy, are you in for it now. I hope Brian does something horribly wonderfully vindictive. She deserves it for not just telling the truth, no matter how guilty she feels. I guess I might be able to like her if she gets dragged through the mud for her crimes against Nick and Brian and really grovels to make it up to them.

Awesome update and now, I seriously cannot wait for the next one!

Reviewer: starbeamz2 Signed
Date: 07/19/10 Title: Chapter 45: Chapter Thirty-Five

WOW. You GO Brian! You tell her! I'm not convinced that he's forgiven her, but it seems like he's reconsidering. BUT OMG his words to her were amazing. Amazing. I don't want him to die! Please, pretty please work some fanficky magic and keep him aliiiiiiveeeee *sniff*

Author's Response: One good thing about keeping Brian's mouth clean through the entire story (as hard as it can be sometimes) is that when he finally drops the F-bomb, it works powerfully (way more so than it does when Nick or someone else says it)... its like turbo charging the emotion behind his words. I'm glad the confrontation was satisfactory. Guess you'll have to stick around to see what happens as far as fanficky magic is concerned.

Brian's journal entries make me want to cry. *sigh* Ok, I'm going to stop keeping one eye on my email for update notices from this story because I don't want you to think I have no life outside of this story lol Kidding, kidding!

Can't wait to find out what happened after they landed :)

Author's Response: Haha, hey if you've got no life outside of it, what the heck must I be doing?? I'm writing all the stuff you're reading! LOL. I'm really excited about how quickly this story is just falling into being. It's writing itself. I feel like I'm watching it on TV and just giving everyone a transcript of it or something... It plays in my head like a movie. lol. Now I sound crazy. Ah well. Enjoy the updates!
