Yay, so glad that you updated this story.

Things are coming along at a rapid pace. Nice movie continuity with the mention of Nicholas tossing pebbles at Mia's window while she was out with Andrew. I am glad that you had Andrew considering the consequences of punching out Nicholas, as satisfying as he may have found it. a "You go, girl" would have seemed too out of character

One question: Is Nicholas being sincere in your fanfiction or is he simply schmoozing? I can't quite tell whether he means it and is just oblivious and self-centered or if he's being manipulative. If it's the second, then I actually feel a little sorry for the big galoot. I can't blame Mia for being angry, although wouldn't it bother Andrew that Nicholas managed to punch her button so easily?

A couple of minor nitpicks: you have a few minor spelling errors. Mia's fist should "clench up" not "clinch". And the Disney references are cute, but since we've already had characters mentioning it, you should probably cut it back so it doesn't become overkill. Have Lily crack a joke about the G-rated romance - it gets the point across without being an obvious in-joke

I did like the conversation with Lily. As usual, Lily was downright pugnacious, which fits in with her character. You also did a nice job with Lily's voice - "prince charming consort" was sweet

Looking forward to the next chapter!

Very funny chapter and so true to life! You're awesome with making your characters come alive-- I can actually see everything as it's happening. The chemistry between the two of them is smokin'.

so glad you updated!

*jaw drops* It stops here? No, it can't be. Everything was getting so good. I loved their conversation and how you worked the RAF background into your story. I also love how in character Mia and Andrew were in their conversation. Mia is stumbling all over her words while poor Andrew's at a loss for the right word. Who'd have ever thought that "Bugger" could sound so romantic? Hope you update and SOON

Young love indeed. Lilly is probably thanking her lucky stars that she's avoided it so far.

I like Mia's epiphany, and how she's realized that she wasn't entirely fair to Andrew throughout the engagement. I also like how you had her talking about the marriage in pragmatic terms as well. Since she's about to be queen, she needs to start showing some maturity and hard headed common sense, instead of simply relying on her feelings. I'd still love to get an Andrew-centric POV chapter
