Oh, if it's just a little bit easier in moving on, I think Kon and Nate will be so in love with each other now.
Great chapter! Update soon!:)

You know... You're amazing. And I love you, I really really do.
I actually didn't spot typos, which means that if there were any, they weren't a big enough deal to distract me from reading. Which is good.
I really enjoyed this chapter, and I have to say that I really see what you mean by them having to take it slow, Nate and Kon.
I mean, from the get go, I was all for Non, or... Kate, or whatever you want to make their combined names sound like. And I wanted them to get together FAST. But where she was patching him up... I just had a hard time seeing it turn into anything there. That's saying a lot for me, because I can see some romantic possibility out of anything... and I really mean anything.
So I just wanted to tell you that I understand. And I think that, even though I was 100% involved and loving it from the start, I'm really starting to understand this story more. I thought I knew all about it, and was just along for the ride, but I'm realizing that there is EVEN MORE depth to it all than I thought.
So, you ruined my whole 'immediately romantic' idea between Kon and Nate, so I tried to write an example, but then realized that it didn't just work... But I'll give you a sort of real life example thing here. I'm the girl that JUST TODAY, literally, was at a grand opening of a tattoo shop down the road, and there were a bunch of cool people there. I walked out into the quiet parking lot, and put something in my car. I looked around and thought (these are exact thoughts here. Just want to emphasize that.) 'Huh... This could be a scene for a story. Like... a girl walks out to her car, and there's a guy in the car next to her that noticed her earlier... or... maybe she talks to a guy inside, and when she goes to her car, he's outside alone, smoking, and they get caught up in conversation' blah blah blah. Admittedly, it might have had to do with the fact that there were many a hot guy in that place, so I was just looking for a fantasy with most of them :). So immediately when I heard her say she could patch him up, I was like 'oh my god potentially romantic scene', and then you made me think twice.
And I'm extremely stubborn. So that's an accomplishment.
Wow. I took a long time explaining that.
So back to my review. I see what you mean.
When you/Chase said that Nate was a Alterna-Chris, and then said Nate was too short, it totally reminded me of a conversation we had where you named all of the differences between Chris and Nate. At least, I think I remember that conversation. I remember it for sure, I just don't know if it was real or not.
And I'm very curious now, about Chelsea. I'm so hono(u)red that you would name a character after me! Even if she is completely different, I am very glad to hear you appreciate the reviews and all that much.
You are my favorite author on FP, forever and always. And when you get published, you very well might be my favorite author in general (although I have to warn you, Tim O'Brian [The Things They Carried] is some tough competition.)
I have a feeling that her meeting up with this old band is going to end up being a very important piece to understanding Konstantine. I’m very much looking forward to the next chapters, and I love you :)
Now I am going to go on facebook and tell you that you are my favorite person in the world, go take off my makeup, and go to bed, because even though I want to stay up, listen to Young The Giant (My new fave band I will tell you all about later) and write junk, I have to wake up at 4 in the morning, and it’s already 10:30pm.
Then again, I might go on facebook, and then say ‘screw sleep’
and be miserable in the morning. You never know what’ll happen.

Okay, so I basically already said everything I think about this story in my last comment, but... damn. It just gets to me. Every single word. It's kind of creepy actually. But I wouldn't have it any other way. I just love this story way too much (and yeah, I've just known about it for like less than two days :p).

i absolutely love this chapter... dont worry i couldnt even tell that you were running on no sleep when you wrote this chapter. anyways though i like how you brought back people from kon past it gives more insight on her character. i also like how you are moving on with her relationship with nate. it is really realistic and believable. i cant wait for the next chapter =)

getting use to the fast pace, really enjoyed this chapter, it had a lot going on and you filled it in quite well.
why didn't any of her other friends help apart from Nate the others should have been around as well.

AHHHHH. This chapter was perfect. Nate is perfect. a;woeija;owief
Poor Kon. Chase is a real asshole. And I'm curious about his sister. I'm guessing Chris was in love with her or something and ditched her for Kon? I don't know. There's probably more to it.
Hero Nate! Haha, yay. He is so cute. I love the end, especially the part with his smile and Kon getting tingly sensations. YES!
I can't wait for you to update! Love this story!

Exciting stuff. I actually hope thats not the last we see of Chris' band. ;) It was interesting seeing people from her past.
I loved the whole scene at the end. Nate and Kon are undeniably cute together. ;)

Okay, I can't possibly express how much I love this story.
I only found it last night while browsing through FP. I didn't sleep at all throughout the night; I just had to read all the chapters that are out. And I don't regret it at all.
I don't think a fictional story has ever affected me this much. I have never ever cried while reading before this, seriously never.
It's jus so... emotional. Especially the agony the protagonist is going through day after day. Also, all the characters are so well written.
Okay, so my words can't really express just how much I adore this story. I just can't wait to read more.
And once I finish this story, I really really hope you'll release it as a book. I just need to have it.
Ah, I haven't written a review this long about a chapter before :p
Anyways, yeah, I can't wait for more :)

I'm glad I got to read 20 chapters at my own leisure but damnit I want more already! ;)
This is such an awesome story. I love your characters and how they all have individual personalities. Yeah, Carol has become nicer and more understanding it seems. I can see why she thought Kon would be a bad influence and it shouldn't have taken Kon saving Nate's life for Carol to accept her, but its understandable and realistic. And adds drama. ;)
You just know Nate was going to get her a memorable gift. He's a secret charmer. Can't wait for more.

Best AN ever.
I don't like Carol. And I don't like how Nate seems to think he knows everything...okay fine, I still do like Nate but thats beside the point. ;)

Aww, I love hearing about Chris. But then again I don't because I know its going to be sad and it just makes me want to cry. I still love the flashbacks though.
Shaun is awesome. It was so sweet the way they hung out. I'm glad Kon's family is there for her. She needs the support. I'm also glad you didn't make Jess the evil step-sister. Makes a nice change. ;)

Awesome story. Its making me feel something in every freaking chapter so far. I normally just review at the end but your A/N's are quite compelling... ;)
More reviews to come. I'm off to read the rest because i'm too excited. ;)

You were right; this chapter was tiny. But it fit with the cute and happy overall feel of the chapter.
I think you ended the chapter well. The sour turn it took kept the character real while still adding a new dimension to her. Also, it wasn't a cliffhanger;so, although the chapter was short, the reader still leaves satisfied.
I like the parallel you drew last chapter of Nate and Konstantine with the characters of the book, in that its about more than just them "getting together".
It sounds kinda bad but its more interesting to me to see how they emotionally push and pull each other on planes differing from typical stories.
Overall, I love it. This story is really a joy to read.

I really liked this chapter, even if it was short. It wasn't the culmination of all the build-up, but I still liked it, and I agree that it stands better as its own chapter. Maybe because the focus shifted back to Chris a bit, even though he didn't actually show up. But after all the (forgive me for calling it thus) high school drama going on, its nice to return to Konstantine and what she's been dealing with. Chris and everything associated with him seems to have been established as a VERY prominent part of the story, and its important to remind the reader that he's still very much a part of her.
Kudos. :) Can't wait for the next chapter!

I seriously had tears in my eyes from this chapter, you make it seem so real, like i'm actually her, or i'm there. I can't wait to see what happens next and read more, ur books just pulls me in even if it's only for a chapter
:)
