Ryan finding out one way or another is going to be devastating. He lives in a small town so him finding out is bound to happen. Worst is if it turns out he he finds out that Charlene knew all along. Timing is so important here.
I think it would be better she told him, but not without letting him know that she has feelings for him and that she wouldn't feel right if she kept it to herself. She should tell him that she told him because she cares a lot for him and didn't want their friendship to be ruined by her silence.
Or, she could be subtle and play it neutral and say, "hey, I saw your dad talking to Mia today. She looked a bit sad though. I didn't hear much because I was on my way to the bathroom but I heard and i might be wrong, her telling him that her daughter is sick and thanked him for bringing medicine." then wait for his reaction.
Well that's my two cents. i know however you decide to handle this, it is going to be wonderful reading it. Right now I'm so happy that finally Charlene and Ryan are being honest with each other about their feelings and I don't want them to cloud that honesty with secrets.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I am really enjoying your story and look forward to the updates.
I am so ready for C & R to "hook up", but it's so dangerous for many of them. i am afraid that her friend's boyfriend or the the other track star, that competes with Ryan (in more ways than one) will get hurt at the picnic.
It doesn't surprise me about the sherriff; typical racist. Publicly you bash those different from you, but will sleep them when no one is looking. I noticed someone made a comment that they didn't think the sherriff was racist, because he fathered a child with a black woman. Just because he has sex with a woman of color and fathers a child, doesn't mean he is any less racist. He's just an adulterous racist.
I think he may have done the same thing, or attempted it, with Charlie's mom. Did you notice they have similar jewelry? How her father has bad blood with him and can't go home? I just hope Charlie and Ryan aren't brother and sister.

Hey I just started reading your story, I gotta say I am loving it!! Charlene should definitely tell Ryan about his Dad. He will know she's telling the truth because he trusts her. I hope she shows up to the party, it'll be a fun night!

First it was just tacky Charlie snooping, whenever you ease drop (sp) you always find out something bad.
Second it is none of her business who Ryans dad is sleeping with. Now she has a secret she shouldn't know and is stuck with to tell or not to tell. And trust me more people know the truth then she thinks. When is comes out and it will, she can deal with telling Ryan then.
Author's Response:
Haha! You're right. Like my mama always says, if you go looking for trouble, you'll find it. Hope you keep reading and reviewing.
Thanks for your feedback!

Oh, by the way, you had asked before and here is my answer...
Should your story become a movie, the two young actors that I think would be ideal for the roles of Ryan and Charlene are:
Logan Lerman & Keke Palmer

Lovely. I was reading this story over on FictionPress, but I'd much rather read it here, I think. It was such a wonderful read and I'm restarting it now.
*Ta.

I have just finished reading all the chapters of this story and I am loving this story so far. Keep it up.
I feel so bad for Charlene and what she has been through. Hopefully, with time, she will remember all the good times with her brother. I do wish she auditions to sing though. It would be a shame to waste her voice.
I'm very curious to know what happened to Charlene's dad when he was a teen. Sheriff Quinn seemed to be real interested in Charlene and the goings on of her father. I'm thinking maybe her father and the Sheriff got into it over Vivian. Even though there is racist tension in the town, maybe the Sheriff had feelings for her. That's what I'm leaning to but I'm not sure......ahh speculations, speculations. And if that is the case, then Charlene and Ryan are heading in the same direction. Whatever the secret may be, I hope Charlene's dad tells her, and hopefully soon.
Ryan is so cute, lol. I see he is real determined to make Charlene his. It seems like she will be fighting him and probably herself every step of the way though. I was so happy when Ryan told Danny to shut his racist trap. Lawd, there was only so much I could take of his mouth and he's a fictional character. But many people still harbour those same feelings and I guess it riles me up. I just hope Ryan focuses so he can do better for himself and go to USC.
I really like Wes. He's awesome. And I hope Chad doesn't get so engrossed in follwing Danny and the others that he compromises himself and what he stands for. Just hearing him latch on to what Danny was saying in the diner made me think; like this is how the cycle keeps going. Its not an innate thing....racism is taught and learned. I just hope Danny gets whats coming to him.
Christi is something else. What an arrogant, manipulative, miserable trick. I really hope she gets a full serving of 'whoop ass.' A Detroit beatdown straight from Charlene. Please grant me this wish, lmao. There's only so much misery you can inflict on others before it catches up to you. Just because she has power and connections now, doesn't mean she will have it forever. Every one has their day.
Karen and her friends are hilarious. I wish Karen would let her inner diva out. And I hope that she will stand up to Christi. She has such a caring nature though. I can see her being there for Charlene. And lawd, how about that James Carter a.k.a. Lance Gross? Boy, there ain't nothing gross about that man. God bless his mother and father for making him, hehe
I'll cut it right here. I can already tell its a long review. Hope you update soon. <3

Will there be an update anytime soon?
So far I think this story is wonderful.
Author's Response: Thank you so much for the compliment. I'm glad you've enjoyed it so far. I am working on the next two chapters now and will be posting soon. I've just been delayed by life's little events. In the mean time, if you're into fanfiction, I've written three True Blood stories featuring my favorite character Tara Thornton. I must warn you the stories are very mature. So if you're into that sort of thing, check them out and tell me what you think. Reviewer: Valis202 Anonymous [Report This]
