This story is something special. I really hope you finish it one day because I won’t forget it.

This is an amazing story. Seriously. Thanks for sharing this even if you can never finish it. You have a great aptitude and ability for storytelling. Don't stop writing gritty, real characters like these.
;)

omg! It's been over a year! Hope you've not discontinued this, your characters were so beautiful.
Obviously life gets in the way of course, but hopefully soon you'll get the writing mojo back :)

Hey. Its almost been a year and I don't know if you're going to continue this story but if you're still there please do.

come back you two

It's nearly been 6 months since the last update! Hope you're okay and/or life isn't bogging you down too much and looking forward to the next installment of these two :)

I need to know what happens next!

Matthew's finally realised it!

This story is so nice to read; you convey the emotions of the characters so well. The personal scenes are very touching and I really like how the characters have developed. I like how you make use of the difference in sentence lengths, interspersing shorter sentences in between longer ones. It really brings out more of Matthew's personality/state of mind and makes the story read better in general. A lot of writers here seem to go on and on with their paragraphs and it just seems like weaker writing.

For this chapter, I think 'collage version' should be 'college version' and 'instead I trudge' should be 'instead I trudged' to maintain the tense.

Thank you very much for the update!

AAAAAHHHH IT HAPPENED IT FINALLY HAPPENED URF
The ball's rolling and I don't want it to stop. So happy right now. This chapter was adorable omg (but now what's gonna happen between them oh gee).

But about that actually decent review, lol. From the start of this story I really liked the way you write. Like short and choppy, but still descriptive when it needs to be. And it's all very engrossing, like its so easy to get hooked. And at times it's just really poetic and beautiful. Plus, the events and all are well paced and thoughtful as Matthew expresses his thoughts and comes to terms with things. And you make the characters feel so relatable and plausible. Hard to call any of the main characters flat or stereotypical. And honestly, Allen has the most interesting and different personality out of every book I've ever read. It's pretty refreshing.
So yea, It's really been a ride. I've had a lot of fun reading your work. And I am super eager for more. Good luck with this story and with the things in your life!

I can't stop reading this. I love this. The writing is just so intriguing. And real. Shit.
I cried at this chapter. It was so beautiful. So, so beautiful. This whole story is amazing, even though its such a huge tease. It's so well paced and suspense building and I'm so eager for them to realize their feelings omg.
I need to keep reading but I definitely had to post this review now because wth I've only ever cried these kind of tears to one other book.
Aaaanyways...yeah, this is amazing. I'll give a better review when I get current, I promise.

Eagerly awaiting the next chapter :). I like the slow build up, how its all right there below the surface just barley visible. A slow natural progression.

Aww, what a well-done chapter! All your descriptions and perfect pacing are great at immersing us in the scenes and keeping us in suspense. I’m glad Allen got that off his chest and that he’s talking more about his life and struggles with Matthew… Already craving more of these two!
P.S. You're the greatest : )

I love this story but I'm honestly ready for Matthew to dump his girlfriend. Her character always felt sort of hazy and unreal, but it's getting to the point that his relationship with her doesn't seem yo have any purpose to the story. It feels like he's ready to be a little more honest with himself now...
