I really am into this story. I kinda cant help but feel bad for Turkish, he is trying so hard for James to like and accept him. I hope James soon realizes that its not always about him and realizes that people make mistakes and are sorry for them.
So I wanna see them hop on the flight to NY all forgiven and cozy a cuddly the whole trip =3

(16) Kind of blew that one didn't you Yusef, I just hope this doesn't affect James' job. On the other hand for some reason I actually like that Yusef told James off, honestly it probably would have driven me nuts if he had just begged for forgiveness and let James treat him like crap. The only good thing I can think of is that this may actually force James to talk about or change what's going on in his life. Can't wait for the next update, that glass of wine sounds like a good idea right now :)

O-O JAMES!!!!! I feel really, really sorry for Turkish. He obviously cares for James, and screws up a little bit. Then James gets so insecure! -hugs Turkish- I really hope they can solve what happened.

Ahhh, my little ghost-ghost! I had totally did not expect that. I was thinking, "something's gonna happen with pictures maybe...and the bliss is going to end..." in a little sing-song voice in my head, but I hadn't imagined that it would be this way or that it'd come so soon. You've got me on an emotional roller-coaster--a sad one, though, with this chapter. I'm thinking about what Turkish said at the end about him always going to mess up sometime in the future, and it's true because I was always waiting for the other shoe to drop. Like, James is going to have to deal with his past demons or issues, whatever those may be when the time arises--overcome them or be consumed by them. It's his choice...and I hope he makes the right one. Also, I can't tell if Melissa is okay with them dating or not--I can't scope out her take on it, though it seems to lean on the disapproving side. While I was making my lunch, I had this crazy, psychedelic thought of "OMG! What if Melissa is in on it all?! Like a match-maker of sorts?!?!" Yeah, shot down by this chapter.

I am SO broken-hearted that Turkish sort of "gave up" James so quickly. Well, who knows what will happen in the future (okay, except for you because you're writing it), but with the build-up and everything Turkish did to get James, it felt like such a deflation for him to just let go like that--fight, dear man, FIGHT for him! Sure, yes, he was patient a lot of times, but it just makes me sad that he didn't make a bigger effort to understand James' feelings and even said he put up with all his "bullshit" for so long. That must be really hurtful for James. There BETTER so some hardcore angst-ing and longing going on with Turkish in the later chappies, my little ghost-ghost!! Maybe throw in some jealousy for shits and giggles. Awesome.

Also, thank you so much for updating so quickly. :D Thou art awesome.

James, James, James. Sigh. Turkish is totally right - if he can put up with James' spazzing, then James should be able to do the same with his flaws. I'm surprised that he doesn't wear wooden shoes, he sabotages himself so much! If you don't know what I'm talking about, thew origin of the word 'sabotage' comes from the wooden shoes called 'sabots' worn by mill workers in France, who threw the shoes into the machines in protest when they were on strike. Thus the word sabotage was born. Just a bit of trivia there for you :P

Omg. So I just casually started following this story, just something to perk up my days when it was updated but I wasn't crazy over it (no offense) but seriously? That last chapter? I do need a tissue. Maybe a box. Delicious, delicious conflict! Oh why! It hurts though I love it so!
Good job, is all I'm saying really. You've created an easy romance that isn't the sappy perfect culmination of love solution of all human imperfections and now with the sweet agony!
