The end of this chapter was sooo sad. I can't imagine how much courage it must have taken him to do that at the VMAs, of all places. Wow. I can't imagine hearing it that way as a fan. So tragic, to think of this being their last big public appearance, his last performance. It came at a good time, though, with all the tabloid stories about him. I can't wait to hear about the public reaction! Also, you know I loved the krazy journalist attack; that was totally epic LMFAO.
Author's Response: Thank you! With the ending... awww I know! But when I decided Nick was going to hide it for some time, that he'd want to announce it at a major place, so he wouldn't have to do it more than once. Oddly, the VMAs seemed to fit. As a fan, omg I'd be bawling lol. I agree, at least the timing was good. I'm glad you loved the krazy journalist attack, I loved and adored writing that LMAO. Cause she was acting like an alien...

Aww the kids were cute, and I loved that Baylee and Mason were looking after the younger ones. I keep saying poor Nick, but what else is there to say? It's so sad that before long he won't remember any of this :(
Author's Response: I know, lol. I definitely get the poor Nick comments lol. I keep saying it myself. Thanks!

Great chapter, Rose. I liked the Nick/Howie moments a lot, I think those two have a very interesting friendship and you protray it really well. Nick is really adorable with all the kids, it was cute when he said he'd go to the basketball game lol. The last few paragraphs were really sad, poor Nick :( I wish there was something that could be done for him.
Author's Response: Thanks! I feel like the Nick/Howie friendship isn't really touched on much, so I try to when I can. (It's not easy cause Howie is hard to write). I'm so happy everyone loved the kid scene :). I wish something can too, but that's also not as fun :). Thanks Steph

Aww, very cute chapter, with all the little kid antics and the Backstreet banter at the end. Yet sad, too, Nick realizing he'll never have these moments with children of his own, and that eventually he won't know who any of them are, that he's getting worse, and that everyone knows it. I loved the double rainbow and walking dead references. ;) Keep the writing streak alive!!
Author's Response: Thanks DR! For filler, it's at least cute filler I'd like to think lol. And that's the thing about any cute scene in this story, it's worse than the angst almost because it's a reminder about what won't be. I'm thrilled you caught the walking dead reference LOL. I knew the DR reference was sort of obvious haha, but wasn't sure if the WD one was lol. But hey, the other half of my brain would be the one to catch it right? Thanks! And hopefully I can... cause... I think I'll put my spacesuit on...

Yay for another update! Loved the banter between all the kids...and of course, I especially love the twins. Love how the boys kept saying that they were crazy. Lol. I also liked hiw you described how Nick told the kids. That's so sad :( and of course the conversation at the end was sad. Hope you update again soon!
Author's Response: Yay another review! LOL. :). The twins are so cute to write cause they're twins, and of course, they're AJ's LOL. I would expect them to be a little crazy just from genetics haha, those poor Boys. I'm glad you liked the description about how he told him. I almost gave that a full chapter, but it wasn't working. Thanks Sel!

Aww man this was so good but at the same time sad. Especially when he interacts with the kids. He would be such a great dad. Oh lord I love thois story but I know it will end in a sad way. However it will be very much worth it.

Author's Response: Thanks! I know, it's sad writing the kid scenes cause as cute as they are, you know they're reminders of what'll never be. :(. Thank you so much, I'm so glad you love this story the way you do. :)

Aww that was a beautiful chapter, Rose. I loved the Nick and Howie bonding moments. I also bet Nick would be a great uncle to al the kids. The last two paragraphs made me sad. Poor Nick. Thanks for the quick update! :O)
Author's Response: Awww thank you :). I love Nick/Howie too, they were really cute on the cruise together (Howie is Nick's favorite Backstreet Boy, so he says lmao), and I've been wanting to fit in a cute bonding scene since. I get sad writing this story...but I also love the angst lol. Thankies Mare!

Great chapter, it is so hard knowing something is happening and there is nothing you can do to stop it. At the same time, they should make the time they spend together happy...for all their sakes. Loving this story, Rose...I know I always says this but I do love your writing so much...ever since I came to AC. Awesome chapter.
Author's Response: Thanks Tracy! That's exactly it, how do you handle it when you know it's coming...but you want to make the best of it while you can? It can't be easy. And awwww thank you! I really appreciate it. :) You rock!

The scene with Brian was funny and also kind of sad. Nice to see them trying to act normal, but of course the reality of it all is still in the back of their minds. The part where Nick asked about Johnny was sad too, and I liked that you added that in. Also, Aaron is a major scumbag. Definitely agree with Nick that he needs to clean up his act and stop blaming his problems on everyone else. Poor Nick :( It makes me so sad that his family is like that.
Author's Response: Awww I know, I mean they're trying cause they know they need to use what time they have to make it count. But at the same time, it's that very thought that's going to continue haunting them. I'm glad everyone likes the Johnny slip up, he's starting to hit the point where it's not big and noticeable, where it's going to filter into everything. I agree about Aaron in here lol. *hugs Nick* Thanks!

Aww shit. I never wanted to see Aaron end up like this. Too bad they can't repair their relationship. Excellent story.
Marguerite
Author's Response: I don't think anyone did. But I do know Aaron's got drug issues in real life, I saw the signs before I even heard he was in rehab. So I took this from that. Thanks!

“Is Johnny meeting us here?”
aawh that's so sad....
Author's Response: I know :( *hugs Nick* Thanks for sticking with me :)
