This is one of my favorites smoochy stories, I just love it!!
Chris and Steph are so cute in here, like they totally want each other but are too afraid to admit it. I hope that now that they will be traveling together something happens between them...

I think it's funny how whenever Chris and Stephanie are together, Stephanie's almost always the one to mention Barbie. Barbie is always lingering there in her mind and ruining the moment without being physically there. I think that if Steph keeps mentioning Barbie, maybe that'll push Chris into wanting to be with Barbie or something, which would be horrible since he seems like he wants to be with Stephanie.

It all seems so obvious now, the way Chris is acting around Steph. He rented a freaking bus to travel with her. His kids will be hanging with hers like ALL the time so it's only natural that those two will be hanging out as well. It was kind of odd that he grabbed her hand in his excitement to show her his bus, and I nearly died when he pulled her onto the bed. I was getting some pretty wild ideas there!

Great chapter. I love the way this story is progressing. The idea of Ted watching Chris's kids makes Ted even cuter in my mind =) Can't wait to read more of this!

I just finished reading the first 8 chapters, and I'm absolutely loving it!
But when are you going to let them hook up?! Steph has to realize Chris isn't interested in K2...how could he be!

Update soon!

Oh my gosh this chapter was too freakin adorable!! Like their interaction was just soo cute! Chris definitely had this planned, he wants stephanie around for the long run. All stephanie needs to do is stop thinking about Barbie! A little less Barbie on the brain equals more moments like the one that happened at the end of this chapter ;)

Oh come on will he just makeout with her already lol


really awesome job

Oh yeah, this is getting really, really good ;-) I loved how he pulled her onto the bed to "try out the mattress". I have a feeling she will eventually get to REALLY try out that mattress - at least I hope she does. You are really building up the suspense for when they finally give in to what both of them want - EACH OTHER! Looking forward to when that happens :-) Great update!

Awesome! I loved this so damn much. They're slowly getting clser. Chris barely had a passing thought of K2 and Steph needs to see that for crying out loud! If she did maybe she'd see Chris was so into her. Just as much as she's into him. It'll be interesting seeing them being tourists together...

I cannot wait for more.

This is a really good story it is very interesting and I like that it is steph telling the story not alternating

I'm with Chris on this one, I think that perfect guy is out there just waiting for his opportunity...and I'm convinced that, that guy might just be their waiter! Kidding, kidding, I think it's Chris, it has to be, otherwise why would he always be complimenting her and everything? It just makes sense in my head... Then again, the only person I can see Chris with is Stephanie and vice versa, so of course him being the guy he's talking about makes perfect sense to me.

I think the way they "fought" over who would pay for Stephanie's food was funny. Cute, even. Know what else was funny? The way Chris described Barbie as "artsy beautiful" instead of "classically beautiful". I thought that was hilarious and a total dig at Barbie, and it's true. From one angle she looks good...through beer goggles maybe lol.

I can't wait to see where this goes. He might be gone for a whole month? Maybe he really *does* need to be like Steph and get a bus for his kids! Hell, they could all share one bus or something, that'd be fun for the kids but Steph would probably be super nervous around him the whole time.

Great chapter =)

They should both go ahead and tell each other how they feel because there is definitely some feelings on both parts. It's interesting how we don't know what's on his mind and still you manage to give us hints, like in that last part it was so obvious that he likes her or the way he rambles sometimes in her precence. It's cute... they are cute and I can't wait to see them together!

Stephanie is just to darn cute. :) I love how she gets so tongue tied around Chris. Most girls would. Heck...I get tongue just talking sometimes...so I have to retract alot. LOL! Was it my imagination or was Chris suggesting that he felt a little sumthin'-sumthin' for Stephanie. Like I said earlier I doubt anything's happening between Barbie and Chris. -Shudders- I just..I love this story! It's so easy to relate to Stephanie as a woman. We're always insecure about things. Thanks for this story..it's going into my favorites. By they way, I hope Stephanie or Chris share that bus. ;) Thanks glamgirl for requesting this!

Oh stephy...she just needs to relax! Haha its ok I still love her :D I can totally tell they both feel the same way. Steph should of said something, but then again chris should of as well. I mean he was talking about himself when he said there was a guy out there who doesn't have enough courage to tell her. Oh they are both stuck in the same situation and its so frustrating! ...yet so cute :D

OMG!! This is gettin better and better!! I love it!!
Good job (as always!!)

AND STARING RIGHT BACK AT YOU! There were so many hints in this chapter on how Chris feels about Stephani, case in point:

“With some people, you’re just like, wow, you’re really beautiful from every angle,” Chris said, then opened his mouth, but shut it again. “Just you know, saying.”

Chris was so talking about Stephanie just then, forget Barbie, she isn't even in existence! Chris so has it bad for Steph, just as badly as Stephanie has it for him and if one of them would just open their damn mouth and speak to each other they would be happy!

But yes, I love this story it is so great. So, so, so, so freaking great. I love it so much. I can't wait for this to be updated, I really cannot.

ACK! Just tell each other already!! It's so obvious they care about each other. I'm sure Chris is talking about himself & not knowing how to tell her how he feels and of course, she thinks Chris is romantically tied to Barbie so she won't say it. Someone break!! I thought maybe she was going to offer to let him and his kids ride with her and her kids in her bus. Still might happen? Can't wait to see the next updates. I want those two together! Awesome update Nina ;-)
