For some reason i could swear that i had this story on my Fav an alert.. But then i just discovered it once again.. and i know i read some of it because i loved it. But anyways.. long story short i have now found it again and i added it and i can't wait to read more. I love this story! it is sooo good. and i can't wait to find out what happens when Noelle tells poppy who she is dating.. i am hoping it doesn't back fire too much because i love adrian and noelle. I think i love this story because it hits close to home for me.. I grew up with this guy who i was totally in love with if you can call it that from kindergarten up until high school.. So yes 9 years! lol. but in middle school he became a jerk and in high school he was an ass. So i have always wanted to lose weight and look hot and be successful so when he sees me he will know he was stupid for never seeing me back then.. But then i read your story about holding grudges.. and i am a queen of that as well.. an as i am reading this i am realzing maybe i should just let high school go.. So that is my story and why i love your story. Not to mention that Adrian is great. So anways i can't wait for your next update! i am dying to find out what happenes. Great job!

When I saw that you updated this story, I had to read the whole thing over again to refresh my mind. HAHAHA. I love how things are going between Adrian and Noelle. They're close enough to meet the parents. So cute, even though I know drama is bound to happen once Poppy gets back. Looking forward to the next chapter! :)

1. Yay yay yay for the update. I was just thinking about your story the other day and voila! New chapter.

2. You've written the Hastings family so well I just feel so warmly about them. Especially Gail. And that fruit-cutting conversation is just... wow.

Looking forward to your next update, whether it be next week or next year. Keep up the amazing work

I love it!

Adrian's family is the dream family I swear.

The chapter had me smiling pretty much the entire way through.

The characters seem so genuine and real.

At the moment I don't know what to think about Poppy...

Nevertheless, your writing flows so well and your ideals are really original. I love how you've managed to incorporate seriousness and humour into it.

So yeah, hopefully you'll update again.

First of all, seeing that you've updated put such a big smile on my face! I'm not kidding. It made my day :).

I have to admit though that at first I was confused because it's been so long since I've read this story, but then when I reread the prologue, I was like: "oh, my god, I can't believe it!"

I LOVE this story. Not exaggerating either. I'm in love with it :D. To me, this is like the best story on FP :). So, this chapter did make me really happy :).

Your writing has just gotten better over the year, girl! I love all the details in this chapter and it was so, so long... thank you, it was awesome ).

Noelle's adorable, she's so awkward that it's kind of cute at this point and I totally get her. She definitely wasn't prepared to meet his parents O.O. Poor girl! While reading this chapter, I was just as nervous as she was because I didn't know if Adrian's parents were going to accept her and welcome her in their family... but they did ;).

Adrian's mother, though... she's, hands down, one of the sweetest women ever. He's one lucky guy ;). He has an awesome family - Jeremiah, and Kelsey, Gail, and Gary... they're all such warm-hearted and funny people.

And the kitchen scene? It was WOW. Beautiful. I'm rendered speechless, too ;). You have so much talent ). I'm glad that you haven't given up on this story/on writing in general. Yay :P! That's awesome (:

I think that Adrian and Noelle are definitely starting to... love each other, even though neither one of them would say it out loud :P. They're in denial, but I'm not ;). And just watching (or reading about) two people falling in love is so romantic and sweet :P.

I also think that I have an idea where they're going now, but we'll see if I'm right in the next chapter :P.

I'm so excited, I can't wait to see what's gonna happen next . I hope that it doesn't take you another year to update, but oh, well :P. As long as I still get to read this, I'll be happy ;). LOL! I just plain adore it :).

There's a lot of love in my comment, isn't there XD? LOL! It totally deserves it ;). Wonderful job!

I was pleasantly surprised to find this update! and even more so when I completely remembered this story without having to look back at any of the chapters, which almost never happens.

You're doing a fantastic job and I hope you keep it up. I like how their relationship is progressing because it doesn't seem rushed but it's not dragging either, if that makes sense. I can't wait to se what happens next! Update soon please (preferably this year, jk!)

I absolutely love Adrian's family.

Even in only one chapter, you managed to get that entire family dynamic down pat.

That whole tag team between Kelsey and Jeremiah was hilarious.

Update soon!

I can't wait to see where he's taking Noelle next.

I can't believe you updated! I love this chapter and can't wait to see where it goes from here. I hope they end up happy together because they are a good couple! Till next time!

I re-read this whole story just yesterday, because I missed it. What a coincidence that you should actually update now after ages, and ages. Well, readers are still here! :D

I love Adrian and Noelle, I really do. It's going to be a storm when Poppy finds out but I'm so excited to see what happens next. I hope they stay together because Adrian is a dream, he really is. I love this story! He loves her, I just know it. And she loves him. Can they tell each other already?

Update faster next time!

When I saw this had been updated on my fav stories I was so excited!

I love this story so much!

I love Adrian's family- they were perfectly opposite to Cheri.

I love how the relationship is growing and I cannot wait for more!

Thanks for updating :)

xxxxx

This a really good story that I would love to see continued. I believe that this is one the better stories I have read.

Thanks for writing this but hopefully you can find the time to continue this story.

I love this tory so much. The characters seem to real. I can't wait to see what happens next. I hope that somehow Noelle stands up to her mother or at least cuts her out of her life. I also hope that we might be able to get to see that Aunt that tried to cheer her up. And when is the big blow out with Poppy. I can't wait. Please update soon!

i actually reread this whole story and i think i've fallen more in love with it (if possible). there are rarely characters as amusing as noelle and you have such an awesome sense of humour. sometimes i even laughed out loud while reading.

adrian is just... wow. i can't find one thing i don't like about him. the way he treats noelle... he's so sweet that at times i can't picture him acting like the jackass she made him out to be. i love the way he defended her against her mother, too. it shows that he cares. their relationship is growing and the middle school girl in me is squealing in delight because of that fact.

i'm loving the plot, by the way. and your execution of it, too.

i really, really, really hope you haven't given up on this story. it would break my heart if you had :).

anyway, amazing job on this, bee :).

okay, i'm already in love with this story on chapter 1

Whattheheck. Noelle is so lucky. Adrian is so sweet... I love that she's noticing the parts of him that are actually very considerate and not at all jerk-like... :)
