Hey gurl, I just got out of school friday so i ran to my computer and finished this story! ^__^ I am so sorry that I wasn't keeping up with the story as you updated it, i was just super busy and stressin about finals but all that's done and now i can review on your wonderful story. :D
I'm just gonna leave one big review of my favorite parts and my opinions about things if that's okay with you :D...
I like the way it started with them getting drunk and having sex and then they regretted it the next morning. Great way to start drama and I really liked that. I really hated that Michael was giving Erin the cold shoulder when he was the one who was all "oh i don't want this to change our relationship" oh puh leaze *eyeroll* XD
Also btw I loved the way you portrayed the voice in this story. You really captured Erin's attitude really well, it was like Erin was real and she was telilng us about this time in her life and it felt really personal and i really liked that. :D
Can I just say that Gran was funny as hell? XD I feel like everybody has that one family member who always is talking smack but doesn't know they are talking smack and it just makes you wanna smack them but you can't cuz they don't know better.
The part where Erin threw Michael the makeshift bachelor party was so cute :3 and when he kissed her I was like "alright he's gonna say 'I'm not gonna marry Brooke and I'm gonna marry you Erin because i love you!!!'" but then i was like then it wouldn't be realistic and your stories are always realisitic and I like that.
When they confessed their love to each other, i cried a little. I am not gonna lie, i cried a little :') literally my heart hurt for them because he was already in too deep with Brooke to even think about just leaving Brooke for Erin. ya know?
To be honest I loved that it wasn't a happy ending. It showed that even though Erin and Michael had shared moments and they loved each other, you can't always get what you want. Life is not fair, you can't always have your cake and eat it too you know? So I feel like ending it the way you did was just darn right perfect. Even though I'd be happy to read a sequal if there was one, I feel like you don't need one because I feel like I got what I needed from the story as is. At the end of the story I learned that life has bittersweet moments and if you want something, don't wait for it to come to you, go and get it.
They kept saying "Oh I didn't say anything because I didn't know if you felt the same". Well there's only one sure-fire way to know that, which is just saying what you need to say. :D also btw I love that song Why Can't I, it was literally perfect for Erin and Michael :D!
Also the introduction of Leif was nice but i wish we coulda known more about him but that's just my personal preference. If you didn't want us to know more, there was a good reason for it :D and lol i totally pronouced his name "Leaf" the first time but then they were all like its pronounced "Layf" and i was like ohhhh XD
Anyway, I just wanted to write you a big review and tell you that I really enjoy all of your writing and I could see you being like a big time author or something and I'm not just saying that :) I really do believe in you and appriciate that you let us read your writing :) I can tell that you put a lot of work into your writing and it really shows :) sooo yeah... ^__^
I can't wait to read your next story :D
Love Emma <33
Author's Response: Wow! This is probably the best review I've ever received! I totally understand about school. I nearly pulled out all my hair this Junior year! It was tough but senior year should be a breeze. I think I really made a lot of people dislike Michael in this story because of how indecisive he was. Really? I wanted to make Erin sassy because I don't usually have sassy characters. I tried my best because I'm not spunky or sassy myself but I'm glad to know I did a good job at it. Lol! Everybody needs a Gran in their family! I was really aiming towards an unhappy ending for the story because I wanted to do something out of the ordinary. In the fanfiction world, stories always end in happily ever afters and the characters always get what they want. Yes, it's fiction but there has to be some type of reality in it and in reality I doubt Erin would end with Michael. At first I was not planning on writing anything more about Michael and Erin. I posted this story on Wattpad and many of the readers were a bit upset about the ending and requested a sequel. Well, it was one of those situations where you have to give the public what they want so I did post a sequel. Depending on how it does it might come to MJFiction but another reviewer gave me an idea for a different approach toward a sequel that I just post here. Just imagine if Michael and Erin had expressed their true feelings before all this? The story could have a happy ending! I was really leaning toward "13 going on 30" and "27 Dresses" for the feel of that story and "13 going on 30" is my absolute favorite movie of all time. I remembered that song from the movie and I was like "That's so Michael and Erin!" I liked Leif but I didn't develop his character completely because I didn't see a long-lasting future with him and Erin. He was really just a rebound guy and his sole purpose for existence was to get Erin's mind off of Michael. Oh don't worry, the whole entire time I wrote about Leif I pronounced his name "Leaf" but while reading the story alive I pronounced it "Layf". Lol! It's like my mind and mouth do two different things. I thought Michael mispronouncing his name would be a cute running gag. Wow, that's such a great complement. I really hope I could be a big time author. That would be awesome. Thanks so much for your encouragement and support after all these years. April made 3 years for me on this site and I'll always remember you as one of my loyal readers and supporters. Thanks so much and much love! <3

I guess all stories can't have happy endings. :'''''( I can't belive that after sleeping together, kissing in the park, and professing his feelings for her. He still married Brooke. I guess he moved on for real. But then why the hell did he kiss her >:(
Michael = Total jerk! Lol
'Something great.' He married Brooke.. he chose her. Now is Erin's turn to move on and find real happiness.
Author's Response: Wow! I nobody ever looked at it this way. I love your prospective and I'm laughing so hard at your"Michael= total jerk"! I've actually started writing the sequel but that valid point you've made is making me rethink somethings. Perhaps I could go through with the sequel the way people are expecting and maybe do another story sort of like an alternate version or something. I'm rambling! I'll figure it out! Anyway, thanks for reading and reviewing!!

I got to give it to ERIN she's handling the situation better then I could because I couldn't go through with it, sitting back and watching the man you love loving somebody else which is something I have recently experience so I know how she feels.
Author's Response: I think we all can relate to Erin at some point in our lives. Thanks for reading and reviewing!!
