  How do you know a girl's a sucker for romance, even though she usually denies this at every given chance? I secretly already punched this Logan guy in the face a couple times, hoping Victoria would only see rosy pictures of Gerard in her head.
  But yet again - this is realism right there smacked against my face in an unapologetic manner. I love it.
  I am in many ways still the same as I was as a teenager, but there's one distinct change. I've learned over and over again that the world isn't black and white. Actually, most of the ground we cover is part of the grey zone.. Sometimes I still get a reminder of that no matter how many times I've already learned the lesson. And that's what bothers me in fiction usually, even my own fiction because even though I love a realistic touch, I have a way too vivid imagination for my own good. In fiction people are always either good or bad, on the main team or the evil team, angelic or rotten to the core. If there's a bad guy, he's always just that -bad. And nothing more. Also, love is made out to be a lot more simple than it has ever been in the history of humans. Relationships are always complicated, past and present, and honestly I think it really would've ruined the whole thing if you'd have gone for the route the teen in me was hoping for - Victoria saying no to Logan's offer because she still loves Gerard oh-so-much.
  I hope you don't mind my long ass reviews, it's just that when I dive into a story, I really dive into it, lol.
  I also hope it doesn't bother you that I rarely comment on the actual events but mostly ramble on about some little detail on mood or whatever.
  Last but not least, I want to congratulating you for making all the emotions in this chapter, once again, realistic, and so very touching. I really liked the way you described Gerard meeting Amaya - it wasn't just the expected tear-shedding and the hugging, but something so much more. I can see him there before my eyes as he flutteres his watery eyes and I can almost feel what he would feel. You're extremely good at bringing out those significant little things that really makes the scene live.

  Author's response

  I absolutely love that you have more to say then "Great fic! Update soon!" *Never returns to read updated story* Believe me when I say, you are the sole purpose of me continuing this the way I do. I'm seriously contemplating switching my Graphic Design Major to creative writing because I live for bringing emotions out in people. And what better way to relate than words? Other than art, of course. But to me, this is art. I could care less if you wrote me an entire novel about how bad or good what I write may be. I would appreciate it any way. I hope you know I read these reviews word for word, over and over because they light a fire under my ass that people need to read what's real. No Frerard (I'm not homophobic, I just think it's weird), no teenage angst and no bullshit.
  
  I still have that teenage girl in me every now and then wanting them to catch up one day, get married the next and get knocked up the week after. But I've learned how rewarding it is to prolong it.
  
  Logan is actually the actor Logan Marshall-Green. I seen him in the movie Prometheus (which was amazing) and I automatically fell in love with him (no seriously, I stalk him via Instagram). I had to watch a couple interviews to capture his charm.
  
  Lastly, I am jumping for joy that you enjoyed this chapter as much as I loved writing it. I'm still working on 7 and that should be up in an hour, so CHECK BACK!
  
  Thanks again for inspiring to rock out with said cock out with this story! I owe to you to make it the very best I can!
  
  I like the shit outta you,
  -Kourt♥
  
  ALSO! I want to put a soundtrack together for this so you can hear all of the songs that inspire the story. If you know how I could do this, let me know!

  It will update as I go on. But I thought to make an actual soundtrack for the story. It only makes sense.

  I definitely love the soundtrack idea. Really original and sort of gives you that last finishing touch to the already intense atmosphere you create with words. This is perfect for mood-setting and ahhh, just, really good!
  
  Oh by the way, can you believe I had to google this Logan guy instantly? You're waking up the teenager in me that took nearly forever to get to sleep, hah.
  
  I like the shit outta you, too!
