I have loved this story for a long time. It really made me think about character development. I hadn't read chapters nine or ten before now, but I loved the experience.

Even if you never come back to this, its excellent work. Really lovely.

This story is some bomb ass stuff! I can't wait to read the rest if you ever decide to pick it back up. ;)

Its been four years since the last update but regardless, I wanted to drop a line about how utterly fantastic this is. I really enjoy everything, from the soccer/workout scenes to the sexy scenes, I'm in love. Also, I like how you also mixed in some plot. I admit I wasn't expecting that and because of that twist of sasuke leaving is why I enjoyed reading this fic so much.

Is this the end?

awwww cute!

omg I just found this gem. I love this very much! Even you haven't updated for a long time I think the ending of last chapter is not really cliff-hanger-y(?) so it's ok. Hope you will write more though! Love your Naruto and Gaara. Thank you for writing this!

wow this is perfect

i loved it, would be nice if u continued

This is teh second time I've read this and this chapter is still painful to read. the dynamics of Sasuke and Naruto relationship, Sasuke always had one foot out the door while Naruto was all in. Naruto sought to claim him, he thought it was them against the world. yet Sasuke saw him as a means to an end and he was futile against the assault. Yet Naruto was no winner, he got the sword in his back both figuratively and literally and he was left to nurse his wounds without the common courtesy of a goodbye.

I felt that chapter was the worse of Naruto yet, he didn't have the looks like Neji, nor the smarts like Shikamaru and they he and Sasuke kept pointing it out it was like wale on Naruto chapter. His pain was palpable and his emotions was so real. So it was like a unrelentive beat down form the get go starting from the previous chapter. I am no fan of Sasuke, nor will I ever be and this chapter only reinforced that. Thank Goodness Shikamaru have his back. Where are the good ShikaNaru fanfics!

I feel Naruto pain and my goodness he does not deserve this.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE UPDATE. AGAIN PLEEAAASSSSEEEEE. I LOVE YOUR STORY AND I REALLY HOPE YOU UPDATE SOON.

Naruto deserves so much more than Sasuke lol. Please update soon! This is awesome (-)

PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE UPPPPPPDAATTEEEEEE
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH
GAANARU 3
I LOVE IT WHEN SASUKE CHEATS AND NARUTO REALIZES HE COULD BE SO MUCH HAPPIER WITH SOMEONE BETTER.
PLS UPDATE, I KNOW IT'S BEEN YEARS
BUT THIS IS AWESOME
YOU CAN'T JUST ABANDON THIS!

Oh boy I can't wait for an update. I usually don't enjoy fanfics that entail sports but this is a very good one, I hope you update soon!

Your story was great! I really enjoyed how gaara went from being a tight Ass to a reasonably respectable Perrin who took interest in his team. I hope you continue on writing this story, so please update soon I can't wait to read!

Despite generally avoiding stories where sex serves as an introduction between the main characters, I actually really enjoyed this fic. I'm glad I picked it up and read it. Gaara's development as a character is particularly interesting to witness as he changes from terrifying goalie to reluctant teammate. I hope you can continue! Thank you so much for writing.
