Hmm... She's definitely pregnant. It's hot, cold, hot, cold... It's good that Nick's not totally freaking out about it, but I'm starting to see the makings for a few different fights. Whether it's about the family, the show, Ali's career... I feel like it's all going to build up on them and stress them out.
Great chapter... Eesh, though. :-S

Urgh... Jane is such a pain. Poor Nick, seriously. I really feel bad for him because he's been the one that's been responsible for the well-being of his family for so long and now he's going to have his own family and he has no example from his own parents to look back on. It's good that he has Ali's family and her parents' example, but it's still gotta be rough on him...
Great wake up. :D hehe... Nick's good at making things up to Ali.
Fabulous job, Teri!

"I mean granted I kinda understand her. A lot of times I’ll want to be close to her, just have her lay with me or just laze about the house with her in my arms but I won’t ask for that. I know she’d have no problem with it but still I guess I’m kind of afraid it’ll make me seem less like a man in her eyes or something. So instead we have sex, even though it may not be what I want it’s a good excuse to get her close to me without saying “baby hold me” which is such a chick thing to say."
That says sooo much about Nick right there. It shows that he really cares about intimacy with Ali. It's not just about getting laid for him. Again, just another way that their relationship is really strong. Unfortunately, Ali doesn't know that he just wants to be hugged and cuddled and loved... Hopefully he'll let her know someday!
“Besides at least my band had a better name! What the fuck about TKO? Total Knockouts? A little conceited aren’t we?” Nick shot back.
LOL... That's too funny.
Also, when I was saying how they're so romantic with each other... Like when Ali goes "Love me?" and Nick answered "Always." It was just too cute. :)
I'm glad that his family reacted positively to the baby news. Just his parents and the media left... Hmm...
I thought it was cute how Nick wanted Mike to ask him permission to marry Leslie. It shows how much he's "the dad" of the family.
Overall, another great chapter. There hasn't been one I HAVEN'T liked, though... haha. :D

I'm glad Alyssa's family was excited for them. I wasn't really nervous about them, though. I AM nervous about how Nick's family is going to react. First of all, I have a feeling one of them is going to spill it to the tabloids. lol. I always fault Aaron or Jane because they seem to do it the most. Also, I wonder if his siblings will feel a sense of abandonment since Nick has been their father figure and now he's going off and having REAL children from himself. I hope not, but it's always a possibility.
Great chapter. :D

Yay! She's pregnant. They're going to make great parents. You can just tell that they both want a baby together. Even though it wasn't planned, I think they're excited. :D
Haha, it's gotta be weird to have a class with fans of your fiance in it.
Oh! And this line was soooo cute. It's totally what I mean by the little things that make their romance smokin...
“You’re carrying my child the least I can do is carry your bags.”
Oh, AND... The tie-in with Macbeth and fate was really good. I think there's a direct parallel to Nick and Ali... Like, if they had known years previously that they were going to be together now, would they have acted the same? Would their friendship have gotten so deep and important to them? Or would they just have screwed and messed everything up before getting to really know each other? I think there's so many possibilities there and using Macbeth really got me thinking about that.
Great chapter, Yoda! :D

She's a great girlfriend... Those were great presents. And they show that either she really pays attention to what he wants (the Lakers tickets) or that there's a thought-out, meaningful gift (the ring). And the bowling ball, well that just shows that they play well together and have fun. lol.
Hmm... Is Ali preggers? I bet Nick would be psyched. lol. But Mary said back in SWIB that she wants her youngest daughter to be married first. I wonder if that'll happen. lol.
Another great chapter, hun! I really enjoyed it.
Date: 10/31/07 06:31 pm Title: Chapter 2: Duty Calls
I really liked this chapter! Urgh... Brandon came back. And it looks like this time, Nick has a little bit of a distraction in Emma. Hrm... Wonder where that's going.
I loved the food fight and then the sex... It was really hot. It just further shows how much fun they have together and how well they play together... Hehe... Unfortunately, though, I don't think they're gonna have many good meals in their future... Haha!
Great chapter, Teri! :D
Date: 10/31/07 06:15 pm Title: Chapter 1: Cupid's Arrow
“Because you’re the only person whose ever made me feel alive like I don’t have to hide the real me like I do at work, or be classy when we go out in public, when we’re here at home….I can just be Alyssa Monroe, normal girl. Not the youngest literary professor at UCLA or girlfriend of Nick Carter the Backstreet Boy, or even the funny witty girl everyone goes to for advice. I can just chill and be me around you.”
I think that sums it up right there... Pretty much, Nick loves every aspect of her life. It's really great. She can be herself without having to put on a certain act about who she is or what she wants. The same goes for Nick. She loves him because of him, not because he's "Backstreet Boy Nick Carter" or whatever. That's why I think they're gonna work out. And I really think they're made for each other.
Great beginning! :D

great chapter cant wait for more really well done
Date: 10/27/07 08:27 am Title: Chapter 14: Sexual Frustration's A Bitch
Ooo... I forgot that "Trina" was introduced! I got all excited. lol. I'm a huge dork, I know... But you know what I said earlier... We all have a little weird in us. LOL.
I feel bad for Nick again. I mean, I understand what Alyssa's going through and she's probably got crazy pregnancy hormones right now, too, on top of all of the Jane drama and feeling like Nick only wants sex, but urgh... That's tough.
I really liked the way you wrote out the interview questions and the answers. I don't know if I told you that, but I like stuff like that. Makes it more realistic.
Soooo I'm looking forward to more as always! :D Keep it up, hun!! (hehe... My mind went straight to "what's IT?" I'm in one of those moods.)
Author's Response: LOL I so heart you my dear! Yeah Trina and Mel are gonna become close with Alyssa even maybe *cough*bridesmaids*cough*
Date: 10/27/07 08:12 am Title: Chapter 13: Happy First Birthday Jamie!!
Okay, so look at this! I'm finally getting around to reviewing. lol. Takes me long enough, right?
Anyways... I liked the sex in the bathroom (of course, right?). It's especially nice while listening to "Panic." Haha. It sucks that Jane's gotta be so... Jane. She always sweeps in and messes everything up. I feel bad for Nick and Alyssa and it's really all Jane's fault. :(
Oh! And I love the interaction between Nick and Jamie at the party. It's too cute to see Nick with a baby. Can't wait to read about him with his and Alyssa's child.
I'm looking forward to reading more... Tee hee, even though I kinda know what's coming. ;-) Great chapter!
(Okay, so this is why I shouldn't leave reviews after 3AM... I ramble!)
Date: 10/25/07 09:17 am Title: Chapter 13: Happy First Birthday Jamie!!
Jane.. Jane... causing everyone's life to go down the drain lol. I'd be cautious too with her around!
OMG didn't expect Aaron to be grovelling after Kellie, well tough titties for him!
Great chapter Teri, just what I needed when I'm not feeling the best, always gets my spirits up!
Author's Response: AWW moppy! I wish I could say the same hon...I feel terrible myself!
