The beginning of this chapter cracked me up, from the story about AJ's mom giving him Nyquil ("Apparently I was a very dumb child") to his reaction to Brian singing SMTMOBL. (As much as I would like to say we all joined in and smiled and laughed, thinking okay we are the Backstreet Boys. We can do this! It simply didn’t happen. Brian only made it partway through the second verse before deciding to stop. I think the three dead bodies along the side of the road are what muted him. This wasn’t a place for singing.") This was a nice way of paying homage (or subtly mocking) all the cheesy singing scenes in fanfics of yesteryear without going the cheesy route yourself LOL. I appreciate the comic relief, because otherwise, their situation is looking pretty grim! I have the same bad feeling about Nick. :(

Hehe guilty as charged! I love how you're picking up on some of these little things like the singing part of this chapter. The visual I pictured in my mind as it was happening was pretty funny! Thanks, Julie! I see you are reading a lot! Woot!! My iPod is dying though so once it's recharged I'll respond to the rest of your reviews! Thanks :-)

I like the little random NyQuil mention LOL. It's the little things like that, that make the characters feel so real. :)

Author's Response: LOL gotta love Nyquil :O) Thanks, Rose!

I can just imagine the 'are we there yet' kind of thing going on, and I don't blame them for being so anxious.  Poor Nick, it's not looking good but I hope AJ is wrong.  It's turning out to be a lot more than the 90 minute journey they expected :(

Great chapter Mare!



Author's Response: Yes! I hate long car drives myself. I can only imagine this kind of drive. Thanks, Steph! :O)

I love reading how you write AJ's POV, you make it so hilarious and endearing at the same time! And man, poor Nick! Can't wait to read the next update.



Author's Response: Thanks, Reb! I really enjoy writing as AJ. He's fun in a complex kind of way. :O)

Thanks for the update, Mare.  I love the fact that regardless of how "dark" a chapter is, you usually are able to supply some comic relief.  I loved the Nyquil story by AJ.  I was just talking to a colleague this week and telling her how one of my cousins would give her child Benadryl to get her to take a nap.

I keep going over the chapter title with this one and I don't think AJ's secrets are really dark.  I just think that the future looks a little bleak.

Again, good job, Mare.

Author's Response: I almost went with Benedryl lol I struggled with the title of this chapter. I admit I just liked the sound of it. LOL Thanks Pammy! :O)

Oh no, Nick is getting worse and its making me antsy. I love how AJ is afraid just like the rest of them and the part about whether bsb would survive without the cute blonde made me laugh. Loved this chapter, can't wait until next week.

Author's Response: Aww thanks, Tracy! I don't know how BSB would survive without the cute, blonde one. LOL
