Hey guys,

So I have some bad news. I don't think I'm ever going to finish this story.

When I started writing this, I hadn't started high school yet and didn't realize how much my time would be cut down. I also wrote this at the peak of my volleyball career, back when I was passionate about the sport and loved to play it. Since then, I've actually stopped playing for the most part due to several personal reasons, and I can't really bring myself to write about it anymore when it doesn't really capture my interest like it did back when I started this fic.

More than that, I've lost track of what I'm doing with this story. I've never written anything of this length before, and my little fourteen-year-old self (lord, I was really young when I started this) did not at all anticipate the need for planning. I did have several key things I knew would happen in this fic, but for the most part, I was completely winging it, and now I'm not sure where the characters are gonna go or what they're going to do, and I did try to give it some time to see if I'd get any new ideas, but I haven't touched this in I think at least a year at this point and I'm still stuck.

I'm not going to be putting this up for adoption exactly; however, if you want to continue this story and publish it, you can, just please give credit and PM me about it (I can't promise I'll read it because I'm honestly just so busy nowadays); however, I'm not giving it to one single person exclusively to adopt and finish—I let all of you down, so I think that I at least owe all of you the chance to finish this story in your own unique ways if you want. If you still wanted to know what I did know was going to happen, feel free to PM me about it and I'll try to get back to you ASAP.

Thank you to everyone who followed/favorited/reviewed this story—your faith in me means more than you'll ever know, and I'm so sorry I wasn't able to repay it. I'm not done writing forever, and maybe I'll try writing a multichaptered story one day, but for now, aside from maybe an occasional oneshot, I probably won't be writing much until about the time I graduate high school and have a little more time again.
