I must commend you for how you wrote this story. Normally when a person writes a story that circulates around one person as the main character, they fail to elaborate with what's going on with the others or how they're feeling, but you do just that. Not every single chapter is solely about Brian and his friends or family simply make small cameos or whatever, and this chapter is a great example of what I mean. AJ "politely" entering Nick's house totally made the Kevin/AJ intervention play through my head, and it was kind of cool to see AJ in that "intervening" position, or the "Kevin" position, lol. And LMAO at AJ getting busted by Baylee for his vulgarity!!
Author's Response: I think I may have already said this but I really believe it is extremely vital to explore all of the characters feeling, emotions, and how they are affected by a certain situation. The main character is not the only who is being affected by what is happening. They cause the main point, but someways, the main sub characters (most import family and friends) support the back bone of the story and hold it together in some ways. Thanks again for the wonderful feedback!:) [Ashley]

Oh Ashley, this story is so heartbreaking. I couldn't help but review again before I get to the end of what you have so far. I absolutely adore this story. You have such a wonderful way with words. You've pinpointed the angst that every person is feeling in this story. It's not just about Brian dying, but it's about all these other emotions and all these other people involved too. You're doing great with this! I can't wait to read more. I hate that I have to go to bed, but I will continue on with this later. Oh! And Leighanne pregnant? My mouth dropped open. Great timing eh? Love it! Great job Ash. This is an amazing story that's incredibly written! :)
Author's Response: Awww! My Dani! So happy to see that you find me worthy enough to leave me more then one review before you read all that I have written so far! *squee* You so make my day better! *double squee* Glad to know that I am working the emotions correctly and capturing everyones' effects from the whole situation. There's a crap load of people being affected by it, so it's definitely a bit of a challenge, but I'm working it. Can't wait to find out what else you think! Squishy hugs for you! You rock! :) [Ashley]

The media needs to leave them alone...but thats all they are good for...making bad situations worse. At least Nick opened his eyes and went with AJ to the hospital. And I think Baylee knows a lot more than what everybody thinks. He's a smart kid!
Author's Response:
AJ didn't leave Nick any choice but to go with him and kids know alot more then we give them credit for. Baylee might not understand it, but he does know that something is going on. Thanks for the review! [Ashley]

aw for once u didnt make nick immature.. good going haha
Author's Response: I know, it's surprising, yeah? I figure I'm immature enough for both Nick and I, so I can slack on writing him in as immature in my stories. [Ashley]

Author's Response: Guess I am a master at jerking people's emotions when it comes to drama? Glad you are still liking it! Thanks for the review! [Ashley]

Oye vey. I wanna cry SO bad! And I don't blame Nick for acting like he is - Brian's his best friend, & his older brother! Sure, Brian's clsoe to them all - but especially Nick [& Kevin].
UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aww... That was a good chapter! Damn media... You can't keep anything under wraps with them around
Author's Response: Well, like Kevin said, you had to of known that it was going to happen eventually. The media always has a way of finding out about anything I suppose. Glad you enjoyed the chap though! [Ashley]
