Again?! Really now Henry?

He gotta a pass last time, Valerie better not make it so easy for him this time. If I didn't dig them together as much as I do, I say she needs to kick him to the curb. He better have a damn good explanation.

I had to crack my fingers for this one. I don’t know where to begin, your story is life changing. As much as I love watching your story snowball into this epic yet “simple” love story you leave me floored at every turn. When I see that you have updated my heart literally flutters and drops all at the same time. I never know what tear drop size turn you have made that will ripple the ocean of characters you have. The people you have built are so real to me, so authentic to the point that I remember her tears in my life. I have cried those same tears and felt that same anguish. Valerie is my Heroine and she will win all the battles I lost. Battles I lost because I didn’t fight hard enough or was too scared of loosing to know when it was okay to let go. You are an amazing story teller and I am in awe of your efforts. I want to be the writer you are, how you take your readers on adventures out of their own lives even if its but for a short amount of time and I always strive to do that.

On to the story, I have been eager to review for the last three chapters first but I wanted to get the full picture first. Valerie is so brave but I wish she would share more of her struggles and be honest OUT LOUD about what really happened between her and George. I feel like we keep getting these bits and pieces of a horrible person but some of his “good” qualities that can be seen in Henry also. I don’t think that Valerie is a sad person, she has been beat down her entire life she doesn’t know how to win. It worries me how Henry can tell her anything can tell her anything but I love you and then leaves her high and dry when he KNOWS she has been hurt before. These two have to grow to be who they need to be for each other or they wont make it at all as a couple. That growth is going to come with pain and tears before we get to the rainbows and smiles. Valerie needs this so she can learn she is all she’s needs to make it.

Trust and believe your work is worth far more than publication and I would buy it. I know on your tumblr you post pictures of the characters, is there a way we can see that Ella, Peter or even that scumbag George looks like. When you update I am inspired to keep writing, thank you. BTW when do you think we will know the full story about Val and George, for some strange reason I feel like he may have died. I don’t know why I would think that, not that you eluded to that or anything lol. If not will he ever appear in the story? You probably had no intentions of doing this but can you tell Henry’s side of things at least for a brief moment in time. I just want to get inside his head to see what he’s thinking. One girl on fanfiction.net wrote a story in pov that was so HAUTE she had to write another in the other character’s pov. I don’t know if you want to do that but it’s just an idea. Happy Hunting!

I'm glad to see this back.  These two characters are so interesting.  I saw Henry's pulling away coming but was still disappointed with him.  I hope to see Valerie continue to work on herself and make progress

Thanks for the update

OMG, I feel for her it is so hard to care for someone like that. The worst part is because you care you let them in again after they ignore you. The best thing to do is to move on and don't accept his future calls and contact because he will contact her again.  I know this is just a story but parts like what he just did is so real and close to home. Maybe in the story there will be a happy ending however,  sadly in real life more times than not there is not. I can't wait to see what you will do. I personally hope she moves on with someone else. She already has a lot of emotional issues,  I think he might long term break her with the hot and cold treatment.  excellent update.

I knew something like this would happen, lol! Val is scared and so is Henry. Now, that does not make what Henry did right. Ignoring her, really? But hey, he's still on 'it's too soon' to love Valerie because boyfriend almost slipped and said it. I can understand his fear of that too. He has a pretty good feeling that Val as been hurt, even though Val tried to play dumb. So what makes him think him ignoring her is going to open her up? Well, I hope he plans on staying away forever because I don't think he is going to get back in as quick as he did last time and last time I think Val gave in too easy. He would not take no for an answer when she tried to leave. He knew he messed up and he tried to act all nonchalant about it and say she was the one upset, which she had reason to be.

Henry plays games. I still like Henry, but he plays games, he is insecure, and scared of to love Val.  I understand where he is coming from, although he is very well off, he has been through alot and Val is like a healing balm for him and he does not know how to treat her or deal with her. He's suspicious as he put it. Val does not play games, but she has her issues too, although hers aren't as bad as Henry's, well they could be, but Val tries to work on her issues. I was so proud of her for not throwing up her food. Val tries.

I hope with Henry doing this, it does not set her back. She is strong and she will be fine without Henry. She is hurt now. That is to be expected. She really liked Henry. Hell, she may even love him too. But it can be hard loving someone who is hot and then cold when things get too intense or you never know where they are coming from. This is what Henry does, #od love him. He'll let go and bare his soul then retreat because he can't handle the emotions. It's childish, but it's how he deals and I can almost bet he has been with other women trying to forget Val during their time apart, then maybe not, they are not exclusive I know, but at this point it does not matter. As much as I love Henry he messed up. I hope Val moves on and I do not mean to someone else, that's not healthy, especially what she is feeling for Henry, at least not yet. She has to be happy with and for herself and I believe she can be.

Val and Henry are bound to run into each other and when they do, I hope Val is not upset/angry/mad with Henry. She does not have to go out of her way to talk to him, but if they are in a position where pleasantries are appropriate to be made, she says hi, asks how he's been, make little chatter, and move on and says all of this without smoke coming out of her ears or hurt lingering in her eyes. Because if I know Henry he will be with someone else anyway, lol. This may be hard for Val considering her character and how embarrassed and frustrated she gets, but she can do it. I don't care this will floor Henry, because I think he expects Val to lose her stuff when he's around especially how she lost it the last time he went MIA. She was PISSED and I cannot blame her and Henry knows how to deal with a pissed, hurt, and frustrated Valerie. He knows all the right words to say and make the day end with Val screaming his name, lol. He is good, but does he know how to deal with a calm, cool, and collected Val, almost uncaring. Not in a mean way, but when you know how a person is, you can't keep setting yourself up for hurt especially if you've been down this road before. Which Val has.

Some may say Val should have told Henry that she was hurt and maybe he would not have ignored her. Maybe, maybe not. But that is very doubtful. Gosh Val, you can do this. Please don't make Val bitter. If Henry wants Val he needs to show some sign this time around and Val should not give in. Not because she is playing games or hard to get, but because she needs to know he his serious. Until that happens, Val should treat him and an associate, a friend of a friend. Nothing more, nothing less. Sorry for the length, I could not help it. Awesome update!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow! I have to say this story floors me. I went back to read the prologue again. Based on this chapter and I believe 12, I get her thoughts. Val made a leap of faith, let her guard down and now we see she isnt the guarded one. She is so brave, possesses such strength it only comes out when you pay attention. Kudos to you! When a reader returns to read previous chapters and uncovers tidbits of foreshadowing... that is the hallmark of a wonderful writer.

Henry. He is messed up, most artists are. He and Ben are very similar, however Henry is so guarded. He is easy to fall for but difficult to maintain. He is a vvagabond,  a drifter and a dreamer. A male torn between a man and a child. He is his father. I believe Henry is afraid of commitments because of hisbfather. He believes the he cant love a woman and his music. He chooses whats safe. He is in love with Val, has been from the moment he saw her. She was different, unique, and removed from  .  His world. Yet he is insecure. He isnt bothered by her insecurities because he is a modelizer. He is so messed up my heart breaks for him.

Valerie is a wonderful character. She is real. I have said this before, your storytelling is above par for this site and the genre. You are truly talented. Thank you for sharing. Happy writing and be blessed!

Damn it!  Again?!  WTH Henry ?!  Please, please update us with a new chapter soon!  

I love your writing style. So detailed, and you give us more than enough (but it's so good we always want more 😉)

WHYYYYYYY?? I was rooting for Henry!!! Is he trying to hurt her??? He is hurting himself....I cant believe he did that to her AGAIN!! 

GIrl...i love this story!!!!! keep it going!!

Nooooo Henry!!! What is he doing? She need a stable guy that makes her feel good. Henry needs to get his act together... 

Also... I've been on your tumblr page are those people Val and Henry? Love your page!! And this story!!

What is wrong with Henry?! As n as I think he's opening up with Val and they seem to be in a great place.. bam he fucks up! Val needs to shut him out and make him work fir it from now on. I'm passed. It was a really good update though. 4 weeks? Ugh. Please let Val get more if a backbone. Even if she has to 've with someone else do Henry realizes what he might lose.  Please update soon!! :)

oh no , he didn't!  OK, it's time for her to focus on herself, take care of the kitten, and be grateful he was into condoms. 

I can understand his fear of comittment, but why ignore her calls and texts.  No ma'am you are not his hirlfriend and he was just a good time of sexy memories. 

Girl, do you and be open to meeting other guys.  I don't care if Henry was not with any other women--he ignored her and that was just plain wrong.  Now I have to try and go to sleep upset.

That crafty bastard!

awwww i knew it-__-

can't wait for the next update. i'm kind of tired of henry, but i feel bad for how insecure he is. i just want val to be okay. update soon:/

Im stressed
