I enjoyed the element of the imperfect couple, since stories are so often written about beautiful people (a crime which I think most authors are guilty). I especially liked how imperfect Donnie really was, although the deaf/mute seemed kind of far, since it seems really unlikely he'd go to a normal school, since he wouldn't be able to learn (unless his lip reading was really good).

Otherwise, very enjoyable.

Okay...so...I'm going to hug you and never let go. That okay with you? :D

That was probably the most touching story that I've ever read. Though I find it hard to believe that Donnie was completely imperfect. I mean, everyone is beautiful in their own way or something along those lines right?
I can't believe Maria died too.. that was just so.. unexpected?

Never mind, it was still just plain BEAUTIFUL. :)

I found your story on a forum, a like how different your story is there is zero clichés in this. Its nice and refreshing.

That story is so, so sweet. I just want to know more about them, and, like-- I don't even know. But it was lovely, and a perfect break from (God forbid) finals studying. I loved it.

That was really nice...it really was i dropped my cup of icetea when i read that Maria died. i was like o_O...wtf? im gonna go learn sign language now! :D

I read this story forever ago, and just happened to find it again. It's just so touching. I don't even know what it is. They're just so imperfect and real. Anywho, I think I'll go read more of your stuff as I've finally found you again!

Wow. I so... loved this. It was great. I didn't really see many mistakes either. This was brilliant. I loved it. And though it is only a one shot this deserves to go onto my favorites list.

That was just beautiful. :] I don't think I have ever read a story like before.

That was... just wow.

Very nice. Full of emotion. =)

amazing one-shot. Very lovely and great work =)

Loved every word of it.

I dont know how to react to this...for some strange reason,there are tears in my eyes now...it's left me speechless!

Hey! This is one of the most touching and moving stories I've ever read.

My kind of story. You know, one guy being disliked and plain-lloking, and the other so popular and beautiful. And, then the latter falling for the former. It's just so moving and romantic.

I planned to make one similar to this, but since you'd already written one I think I have to carefully write my own. I don't wanna be tagged as a COPYCAT.

Anyway, great story. Love it!
