Wow...that just kept going back and forth between sooo Hot and really sad.
I'm still a little speechless over the whole scene when V confronts L about the pool. I mean he is doing what he seems to think will make it all better and all she can do is think that she hates him. You wrote that so beautiful, yet so fucked up (which is how they are at that point). I think that this is one of the first fics that I have read, that was honestly realistic in portraying their relationship during that summer. It was exactly what I wish RT had had on the show. (maybe then it would have seemed like they fast forwarded through L/V's relationship).

Great Job and I hope to see a lot more from you in the future. I'm friending you so that I can see it.

Whoa...great. Your writing is so good. Every time I see you have a new story, I do a little cheer. And this was truly amazing. You write the characters perfect.

[shangri__la]

Aww, thank you!

I'm glad you enjoyed it, hon.

Like everyone else, I really liked it- the ending is very sad. I think the dialog is really spot on and most of the interactions are as well, but... The scene after she confronts Logan about the pool fire seemed off to me. I like your explanation on how Logan messes up when he takes the lead, but it seemed like that scene went too far with what Veronica would put up with. I don't think she would have let it go quite that far...

Anyway, still really enjoyed reading it...

See, if I could do it over, I would have taken that scene out. *headdesk* However, my writing professor always said if you feel you should have taken something out *after* the fact, then you might as well have trashed the whole thing, so... ;)

Thank you so much for reading.
