Author's Response: The funny thing is, I don't remember it at all; I actually found it on youtube and THEN fell in love, haha. I do remember 'Love and Affection' and 'Now and Forever', though. ... I wonder why!
Author's Response: Thank you! :)
Author's Response: Thank you! That's how I've seen him, too: the quiet, sturdy one. But, like the song says, "even the best fall down sometimes ..." ... or something like that! I'm glad you enjoy it :)
Author's Response: You don't know how bad I just want to put the last few chapters up. Even before this story started, I had a mental image of JC healthy/not healthy holding a guitar and writing. It's going to incorporate so nicely into my story in the next few chapters, I think ... :) Marriage, I don't know if that's in the cards ... but I'm also rooting for a little JC/Lauren collaboration, hahaha
waterworks...my goodness. JC has always seemed like the strong one out of the five, and this, well, this just turns the table on all of them. Suddenly, THEY have to be strong for him, and it's just weird. But, refreshing. Keep it comin!!!!
Totally woke up saw ur tweet & thought u'd updated BMS....ah! hehe
Author's Response: lol, yeah, I figured someone would think it was BMS ... I'm working on it, though! I'm glad you liked it :)
I love, love, love this story! Even though the storyline is sad and I find myself getting teary as I'm reading every chapter and I want to just give Justin a great big hug cuz he seems like he's about to have a nervous and emotional breakdown, I love this story!!
I love that Lauren is going to be JC's homecare nurse! Yes! I think (at least I hope) this is going to lead to good things!! :)
I love that Chris was the one who came out and talked to Justin. That was unexpected but exactly what needed to happen.
Axiously waiting for the next chapter.....
Author's Response: I'm so glad you love, love, love this story :) It makes me want to update more :)
Awwwww ouch boooo.... this chapter was so hard but adorable at the same time.
"God, you'd think he'd be a little more happier seeing that hot nurse at his bedside and checking his vitals and not asking where you were. I swear to God, if I didn't know him better than I did -"....My JuC mind, thinks that too Joey
"He's drugged, Joe; he's probably just looking for the one thing that's been pretty permanent." ... the kid he practically raised
Author's Response: Agreed! It was pretty hard to write ... but the little quips were fun!
Author's Response: Haha, thank you, I think! I think the even number of 'damn you's cancel one another out so I think it was good, hahaha. I'm sure if you worked it out, you could do the same, maybe better! Thank you for liking this story!
Author's Response: Haha, yeah ... even though he is a hometown boy, he was never a favorite ... but I'm growing to love him in the story :)
Author's Response: Thank you! I'm glad you are enjoying it!
I just read this entire thing after seeing you mention it on twitter. It makes me realize, over and again, how much I miss the chemistry between the guys-- Justin and JC, JC and the rest of them. You've done such a great job of capturing candid conversations and emotional moments.
Just another example of why I love your stories!
So yeah get with an update already! :)
Author's Response: It has been updated and as always, you know I love your compliments! <3
Author's Response: They did, they did! :)
Author's Response: well, hopefully, after this update, it won't take so long to update as often, haha :)
awww!! Justin is my hero! I'm amazed at how he's handling this whole thing. I love that the guys are back together again and their dialogue and antics with each other made me laugh! man, I miss them as a group!!
Awesome chapter, can't wait to see what happens next :)
Author's Response: But he's gotta crack sometime, right? Well, maybe. I miss them, too ... I'm hoping for one more album, even if it's just them re-singing stuff, haha. Thank you for reviewing, as always :)
Author's Response: There are always two sides to the story and this one is gonna be a struggle to decide where I want it to end. Hopefully, regardless of what I choose, everyone will like it :)
