This style of writing kind of reminds me of Stephen King :D
I LOVE IT.

Dang that was so depressing, but I couldn't stop reading it. Great job.

awesome ^^
it was depressing mind
but i love it all the same

one thing though...

"how they'd stayed up all night reading and had to crawl into bed afterwards"

why does this remind me of.. me XD

keep it up!

Aw, a very sad oneshot, but I liked it. ;3 You're very talented. Oh, and update RB2 soon, I'm really excited for that one.

...Are you serious?

I don't even know how to start. On a personal level, I'm not even going to say anything. A review isn't the place for that.

On a writing level, I'm very impressed. I get easily frustrated with anything that's muddled or a bit unclear in sentence structures and word choice, but all of this flowed really smoothly. It touched me on an emotional level, but not as deeply as it could if more emotions were explained rather than events and facts; but that doesn't make it less powerful or somehow bad. I'm sorry if this review sounds rather forced or even brutal--You'll have to forgive me; I'm still in shock.

One thing I WILL say about the whole...all of that mess that apparently has gone on is: Welcome To The Club. I don't mean on the rehabilitated junky aspect of it all, but on the "I completely fucked up and lost the most important person in my life," part, yeah. Welcome to hell. I've been burning for four years now, so this got me right in the heart and in the gut and I know you know that. This is going to touch a lot of readers, a lot of people who are going to be able to identify to what you've written here. And you've written such agony so beautifully; it's almost a crime.

I wish I could say more on this... but I...
