Ok, I'm back with my gushing praises...Luke and Reid's curls, does it get better then that? I just don't think so! Faith making Reid breakfast, and her comment about his smile, I think I squeed a little. Then the bee bee comment, total heart meltage. Faith ratting out Noah's despicable behavior? Excellent! The fact that Lily even needed to be told about this...sad. The fact that she finally got a clue...maybe there's hope for her yet. I also loved Faith's comment about Lily and the gun...yes Lily, people still remember the crazy...even if Reid was wayyyyy too understanding about the whole thing. I get it, but he's probably a better man than I am a woman, because MIL or not, there'd probably be some charges pressed. Thank goodness my MIL isn't from Oakhell. And back to the story...I was impressed that Luke backed-off and let Faith deal with it her way...I'm seeing a lot of good in your Faith. I was also impressed with the way Reid handled working on Hallowe'en...from pout to pride, excellent work Reid! On to Reid in a tux...I feel my heart fluttering...Luke and Reid both in tuxs...bring the paddles, my heart might not take it! Sigh. Then you end it with car screaming and Lure cuddles. Sigh, sigh, sigh. I have so much love for you and this fic...and now I'm off to practice my happy dance for tomorrow...are you going to cover the douche getting to boot from Lily...and Faith, Natalie and Ethan?
When I get these scenes in my head, it's up to me to find to words to recapture that feeling, that energy. And sometimes - with my limited vocabulary - I'm not sure I did. But after reading your feedback, I could tell I did in this chapter. Funny detail: you mention the details I loved too.
And believe me...Reid is a better man than I'm a woman too, because I would be way more mad. But what I get from (my) Reid is some sort of (over)exaggerated respect for parents. I'm not sure where it's coming from. My version of Reid didn't had very warm parents, so maybe it's been a grandparent who installed that in him.
Who knows...maybe it will come out one day:-) For now, I honestly don't have a clue.
Thanks for taking the time to share your gushing praises, hahaha. Loved them!
