Sometimes the most simple scenes are the best. I love this final moment where Ashley isn't too pushy about the coke problem, and Craig's just relieved that she feels that way. That's how I expect them to be if CrAsh gets back together on the show, especially given that Jimmy dumped her for basically being too motherly. Ashley has to learn that shouldn't be the case and I think Craig's the right guy to make that change with. In other words, I really enjoyed that scene.

You're really good at describing characters' appearance, clothing in particular. That's how I see Ashley's eyes too-- very piercing and searching.

I hope to hear more about Craig betraying Ellie because I don't think the actual show will cover that...at all. It's a shame because I like their friendship. But that might be something you don't want to get into deeply, and I'd understand why.

Nice to see an update. Keep up the great work. :)

Hm, second person, huh? I have a love/hate relationship with it when I write, but you're pulling it off splendidly. I think it's because I feel that a second person narrator has to meander in their thoughts, kind of like a stream of consciousness with more consciousness, if you know what I mean? Hopefully, that's not confusing. But it's almost as if the narrator truly has to be in the moment for it to work. He has to have some awareness of how he feels. It's almost like you're walking alongside Craig, seeing what he sees, feeling how he feels, etc. A passenger on the car ride of his life. I truly appreciated that and it makes the story vibrant and enticing.

I never got why they used that picture for the CD cover. I like how Craig thinks it's awkward, like Ashley did. lol.

The fan reaction is very fitting and kind of funny. I can picture a lot of girls wanting Craig to be in love with them.

I really want to know what Ashley's doing in this time frame, so I hope you update soon. :) Awesome job! This story was recommended to me by a friend btw.

Oh I like! Sorry I didn't read and review before. Sometimes I get all caught up in the abused Craig fics. I like the flow of this. He seems a bit lost, but trying to stay on track and very vulnerable. The wording...it just feels like he's floating along. You can tell that this rockstar thing isn't what he thought it would be. I think he thought that then he would finally be loved. I like the way the direction is going for Ash to be the one to fill that void.

I'm loving your second-person Craig voice. It's dreamy and hypnotic and dazed ... perfect, perfectly -Craig-, in other words. Wonderful.
