So... Hey.

Sorry this isn't a new chapter, but I'm here to give a little update and say I'm not dead. Nor have I given up on this story, Uhhh hoo boy where do I start with this...

First off, I would like to apologize for the long delay and absences; I never meant for it to take this long for me to get back to this. I.. Well alot of stuff has happened in the past year, mainly alot of health scares, things just ended piling up and up until I didn't have any time. I really hope I didn't alarm anyone but hey, I'm well enough to be back in school though, so please don't be too worried!

Once I realized how long I'd been I finally checked my email and I was just overwhelmed with all of the messages and emails I got. I won't lie, alot of them were really good responses and reviews that made me feel all bubbly on the inside and I felt really bad for not getting back quicker. However, there were also some not good messages that I got. If I'm to be completely honest, some of those made me question whether or not I should continue this but as I'm sitting here going through all of these messages I've made my decision, no I'm not going to stop this story. I'm going to keep going until this entire series is done, even if it takes me a long time to do it.

I'll be frank though, my current situation is a bit unstable and I'm stuck without my personal computer so I'll have to be typing my new chapters at school for now(currently typing from my phone). It'll definitely be at a more reduced speed than before but please bear with me on this.

I also received a few alarming messages about my story being too similar to Kyaru's so I'll be doing a small bit of editing on the past chapters but it won't be anything major. I'll try to sort that out while typing the new chapter up. In the future I'll also try to branch out a bit more to make this story more distinctive from hers, I apologize for any mix up that might have come from this.

I really hope you all aren't too terribly upset with me but I am continuing this, slowly but surely. Also, I wanna end this update on a positive more lighter note, I really love you guys. The amount of support you guys have been sending my way and all the positive messages honestly made me cry a little, in between the giggling and the sporadic bursts of laughter I had but really, thank you.
