I love classical music, this sonata is my favorite of Mozart. Great story! Very well written and a good plot too.

Iris is a sweet girl! I loved this fanfic. ~nolongerstrong(L)

Honestly?

I loved it! That was so sweet!

Besides, I love piano music myself and I'd love to play, but I taught myself how to do that, too and sadly I'm not that good at it...

But I loved this story, that was really cute and I wouldn't say it was OOC. That was so Mac and Stella like ;)

I'm planning on reading your other SMacked stories, too :) So you probably get a lot of reviews from me the next few days ;)

Hey there! I've said to myself that I would check this story out, but I've been so busy -_-.! Sorry. Anyways, I think this little story is so cute ** Especially the end hihi! And haha, I liked the "Are you two..." and that she replied "Maybe" aw, it made me melt *

And yay for midnight insperation! Wihoo!

It was neither too sappy nor OOC! I think you've captured both Mac and Stella spot-on:) And it read really well!

It was fun to read you take up and develop a more 'personal' side of Stella - I like that you went with music and the piano, it was all plausible and you've done a really great job with the story of Benjamin as the background to Stella's love for the piano - it was very moving!

Mac taking the time to investigate where Stella goes off to on her free evenings and surprising her there was a fantastic scene! And Stella sharing with him details from her past and playing the Moonlight Sonata (which is such a wonderful romantic composition!) was really greatly written - subtle and touching. And a great prelude to their 'kiss':)

I also loved Stella's comment about the five most important persons in her life and the way in which you described their friendship: "always consisted of silences that truly felt golden." - beautifully worded:)

So, great job with this story and I'll be on the look-out for more stories from you:)

Gosh, that was long, too! I hope you don't mind but your story was really good and it felt only right to me to compliment you on it properly:)

cool story :) I'm not much for classical pianists, but I like Yiruma. LOL, though it's still not the same, I guess. N e way, you played - er, wrote - this really well :)

Late night Muses are the best, aren't they? XD

I stopped by because of the summary, I'm happy I did. The story of Stella teaching herself how to play and continuing on after Benjamin died was so sad yet in a way a lovely tribute to her love and friendship that she felt for him. :)

I hope that she continues on the tradition by teaching Iris. A star and her rainbow, a lovely combination. And the ending with Mac and Stella kissing, you killed me with the love and sweetness of it. Great job!

That's cute! how lovely! Mac finding her and Iris hide then surprise Mac and Stella kissed! Iris ask Mac "Are you dating?" lol! that's almost! Love it!

That was cute! Mac finding her and Iris being hidden :) I think you stayed in character for the most part.

I don't normally read fics where characters have exceptional talents that are not referred to in the show. That being said, I really enjoyed this. I felt the characters were believable, and the storyline of how Stella came to play the piano was good and original. I also liked the addition of the character Iris and the obvious parallel between them. Someone with a shippers heart can see Mac and Stella taking a personal interest in that little girl;)

Thank you for the fic.
