Aw that must be so hard, facing the world and knowing you're not going to remember any of these moments is hard. Even during the interview, it must have been such a struggle for him to even get out what they wanted him to say about the album. Knowing he won't remember any of it soon is horrible, I wouldn't wish this on anybody. I do love Nick and Brian joking together, I think he is dealing with it better that he has someone around to talk to. Awesome chapter as always!
Author's Response: It's definitely a struggle, forgetting, knowing he is. He's basically going to have to live for the present, knowing he won't remember the past soon enough. :( But I think his goal is still to make sure he makes his mark the best way he can. I love Nick/Brian too, and I feel their defense mechanisms with the tough stuff are very similar, so having Brian helps. Thanks Tracy!

Aww, I loved this chapter! It was so heartbreaking, yet had plenty of humor, too - especially loved the digs at Drums, Paris, and Carson LOL. It was so sad to see Nick suddenly forget where he was and why, or the lyrics to his song, yet be totally aware that he was forgetting, too... that's gotta be the hardest part. I loved how Brian was there to help him out so subtly. Gotta love Frick. I love the album cover, too, especially the back - gorgeous! DRATW, DR!!!
Author's Response: Awwww thanks DR! I can't help myself, when I get a chance, I totally toss in digs at the douchebags I can't stand lmao. I think that's gotta be the hardest part of the stage he's right now. He's aware he's forgetting. Sad and tragic as it is, once he's no longer aware, it might be easier for Nick. (Just harder for everyone else). I love that Brian's there for him, it's my fave part of this story I think their relationship (and of course Nick/Kevin lol). Thanks about the covers, I feel like they sum up Nick pretty well hehe. :)

ok, so this was a shock....interesting and sad. But curious to read about Nick's story told by Brian? I think ;)
Author's Response: Everyone keeps guessing! LOL :P. I dunno, Nick says in the intro someone will be writing this for him. :). Glad you liked it.

Aw damn this made me cry because you refer to Nick in the past tense. Although I knew from the start that it would end up sad it sounds like he died and that will really make the tears flow. I agree he will never know how many lives he has touched. Excellent story please keep up the great work. ANd send a box of tissues to your readers.

Author's Response: Well....look at this, if he's alive (cause I'm SO not telling if he is or not) is he really Nick anymore if his memories are gone? I'll need to invest in some tissues for you guys lol. Thanks!

Aw, i'm so blonde that at first I thought this was an author's note from you talking about getting so into a story that you feel like you can't separate yourself from the characters lmao Dur! Now saying that, i'll unblonde myself and say very touching mini chapter and very creative too. I love when stories break that wall and give us something completely different and unexpected. Also a great way of letting us know from here on in, things are going to be rough. Thanks Rose! LOL just laughing at myself again.
Author's Response: LMFAO awwww Mare I love you. Thank you! I thought of this last night and thought..."well its not a chapter..." but it just felt right to add that in. :).

That was so heartwrenching :( I wonder who is writing the story for Nick, I'm really intrigued! Before this I was thinking it might be Kevin, but the "journal entry for the fan club" and the general tons of the letter makes me think that it's Brian now. I love this story and I loved this mini update! Keep up the great work, Rose :)
Author's Response: Awww :(. Man, everyone's guessing/asking but I'm not telling! lol :P. Thank you! :)

Oh no, so it's all downhill from here :( Poor Nick.
Author's Response: Had to happen sometime right? *hugs Nick* :(

I think is Brian who is writing this... I mean, it must be written by a person who knew him. I loved this chapter, it makes me wanna cry, because Nick's condition. I hope you update soon, I'm loving this <3
Author's Response: Everyone wants to guess lol. I'm so not telling! :P. It is one of the Boys though. Thank you so much! :)

PS-I'm dying to know who the author is! I have a guess though :) Just wanna say too that it was really clever for you to set it up this way. Makes total sense with his condition, but never thought about it.. I have a feeling things are gonna get really sad from now :(
Author's Response: LOL everyone has guesses. I'll never teeeeellllllllll.... Thank you! I knew when I wrote the introduction one of the Boys would write it, but that it obviously couldn't be Nick. I'm so glad everyone liked that spin. :)

Wow heavy stuff. I'm untreated to see where this will go next, love this story so much.
Author's Response: Thanks Tracy! :)

*gasp* One of the Boys (Brian) is writing Nick's life story or what he went through with the Alzheimer's? Wow. What a great idea! I'm VERY intrigued Rose...
Author's Response: One of the Boys, yes. Not saying who! :P. Yep, when I thought of this, I knew Nick couldn't write it, but felt he'd ask one of them to. Thanks!

Aw Rose, this makes me wanna cry. This was great and I can't wait to see what'll happen from this point on. Very well written as usual!
Author's Response: Awwww :(. Thank you! As always, I love your feedback. :)

What a great chapter! Love the moment with Angel, and I love how you wrote that scene. It was very sweet. The ending was really nice with the fan as well. Great job! So excited to see this updated :)
Author's Response: I was wondering where you went! lol. Thanks Sel! Glad you enjoyed it. :)

Aww... this definitely seems like a turning point in the story. It was sad already, but sounds like it's gonna be downhill from here. Sick as it sounds, I'm looking forward to more... you know I love me some angst! Love this story! :)
Author's Response: Had to happen at some point right? LOL. And hey I'm looking forward to writing it, so how sick does that make me? Hehe. Thanks DR!

It was good that Nick tell Angel everything. Now some of his family knows, I think she will help him. So nice the last part, with the fan <3 I'm so loving this story, I hope you update soon! <3
Author's Response: Well, one member knows anyway, the sane member lol. Thanks about the fan scene! I didn't plan that, but it seems to fit. Thank you so much for all the feedback! :)
