LOL  I love that you've worked in "The Office" in here-- tby789 is awesome, I love that story sooo much.  That was one of the first of many addictive TwiFic stories for me LOL

And when she sees he's wearing the beloved Stoli & is staring @ it -- he catches her-- that was great.  I loved when she was taking it off him & being all nice & delicate with it-- I totally would have been, too!!  That's a fragile collector's item frmo The Rob LMAO LOL  But, when he let her wear it?  Oh, man... just wow.. LOL  What an out-of-body experience that would have been LOL

When they played their music together, that was really sweet :)

And, so funny that after all the trouble she went to de-Rob her computer "The Office" is what busted her & he knew about it--- even funnier :P

As you can tell, I'm loving your story right now and on my way to read more! :D  Lots of parts make me go "aww" and the rest just make me laugh (like her getting busted & his response to her taking the Stoli shirt off of him LOL).  Great story! :)

Author's Response:

Thanks hun!

the office was my second fan fic i read. loved it... so of course Jen had to be a fan of it... when this story first posted, it was near the end of the Office posting... sad sigh it is no longer available...

the Stoli... sigh... really. it is the holy grail of Roblore... he better still have it or i will have words with him.... 

glad you liked the music moment, its one of my fave moments.

*blushes* i am so happy to know you are "awwing" and busting a gut... gives me a warm feeling! thankyou!

see you on the next review!

MWAH!

Oh my dear, you seriously had me crying in during the second half of this chapter.  The last part of the conversation between Rob and Jen was so emotional.

Jen, remember, he said, whatever it is, just come home.

I am glad Clare is there with her.  This will help ensure a true healing and recovery for her, not an opportunity to run away, like she did the first time. 

Wonderful job, dearest!

ILY!

Author's Response:

thanks so much my dearest!

she has so much to work thru, Rob and Clare will be instrumental. She definitely can't run. not anymore. 

and Rob... just wanting her home. sigh...

i made you cry... i am sorry... but i am glad you liked it!

you know i love you! and you know i will be bawling when your last chapter posts... 

thanks so much for all your support. it means so much to me!

MWAH!

steph

I love it. Gosh the emotions you got us to feel and go through, just...wow. You have this amazing talent and Im so beyond glad you're sharing this with us. Thank you so much. And feel proud of yourself. Another well done chapter...more than well done. Blazingingly well done. Is that a word? Who cares. You're the writter here not me. Lol. Congradulations and just again, oh my god, you're amazing. AMAZING.

Please update soon, Im so desperate for Robs reaction and cant wait to read his POV when the time comes through his story. :)

AMAZING!!!

Author's Response:

thanks so much Meagan! your words really bring me to tears ( i deserve that, i have been so cruel to you all!) so glad the emotions read so strongly. that means so much to me. to be able to feel what they do,thank you!

I'll tell you, i am terrified to write this in OTT. i will get thru it... glad i have a ways to go before i do... but it will be rough. 

thanks so much for all your kind words. it makes me forge ahead!

MWAH!

steph

The emotions are spot on. What Jen is thinking to herself that she is just an "empty shell"... the fact that the thought of her not deserving the right to be a mother... jeez... not being good enough because "he deserves better"... that is exactly the emotions that are involved. Can I tell you how many times I thought about ending it with my husband after our ordeal just because I knew I couldn't be what he needed me to be?!? The guilt and the pain is so heavy. I am an incomplete woman. And the fact that he would NEVER give in... and never got angry for me even thinking it... always there and supportive. (Hint- Rob for later chappys) I love Clare! So glad she is there to help. Thanks for updating so quickly! 

Author's Response:

thanks so much my dear.she is faltering, she may be strong, but even the strong suffer when they are at rock bottom. you doubt everything. 

And the support is so important. I am glad you had your husband for that. oh yes... Rob will be a support. how could i write him otherwise...hahaha. 

thanks my dear!

MWAH!

steph

And yet another amazing chapter!

Jen really needs Clare. She needs that unconditional love a mother gives. And she needs to learn to forgive herself.

I'm so glad she has a family now.  She needs to finally heal from the past and have a support system around her to help her do that. She needs to go home!

Thank you again.

Author's Response:

thanks so much hun!

she definitely needs Clare, a mother and an image that Jen can grasp onto. that you can love like a mother without having carried the baby...

she has to forgive herself of so many things that were not her doing...therapy will help.

family is everything. and you are right. she needs to be home.

thanks so much!

MWAH!

steph

I had a nice and very long review written and somehow it got erased! Here goes.

I am so looking forward to Jen going back home to Rob. He needs to know what happened and even though he'll be heartbroken to know that they lost a baby, hopefully they will have the promise and hope of being able to have another try when all is well again. How he reacts to this tragedy is something I'm really looking forward to reading. No doubt he'll be heartbroken, not just by what happened but that he wasn't there for her when she needed him the most. Hopefully Claire will be able to help him deal witht that pain. Thanks for another great chapter, it brought tears. Just get her home to him, toute sweet! Thanks dear, and big Hugs!!

Author's Response:

thanks so much my dear. i hate when the reviews fall to the ether! 

i an looking forward to them being together again as well. they can only deal with this together, no matter what Jen thinks is right for him, it is important that they are together to deal with it. 

i think you will like his reaction... i'll leave it at that.

Clare will be such a wonderful support for both of them. 

thanks so much my dear. for all your support, it means so much!

MWAH!

THe Pattinsons are a strong family, they'll help her heal. But this is truly heart-wrenching. And I love a story that is this emotional. You  are a great writer!

Author's Response:

thanks so much Kathy!

the Pattinsons will definitely be the foundation for her recovery. i am so glad you like the emotions. it was quite something to write. 

thank you for all your dedication to this story. 

it makes it all worthwhile!

MWAH!

steph

oh, steph, how heart-wrenching this must be for you. i can completely feel jen's agony, and agony it is.  i CANNOT imagine how women go thru this in real life.  they are truly heroic. 

as i've said before, clare absolutely rocks.  jen needs that love without the guilt that rob would unintentionally add.

hmm, the fireworks are gonna fly when jen gets back to london... and not in a good way. 

i can't wait to read the next update.  in fact, i read this update before i read the new chapter of UOEM!

Author's Response:

thanks my dear. to say it was easy to write... no not at all.. for sure. i am happy it has finally posted... holding the information back was the hardest part.

i feel for the women who have had to go thru this. they truly are strong women. 

and Clare... you know how i love her. She needs a mother to get thru this. some things rob jsut wouldn't understand, even as wonderful as he is.

oh fireworks...yes and not just for Jen. we'll see how Rob takes it all. 

omg. before UoEM?! ok i am so blushing now... that is such an awesome compliment! thank you! 

thanks so much for your dedication to this story! it means the world to me!

MWAH!

steph

OMG!

I think I hate you right now. To cut of the chapter HERE!! Update, soon!

On a nicer note, I loved the chapter. The emotionale tumoil she went through, terrible. I really hope she will tell Rob very soon. So, UPDATE!!

Love

Kimberley

Author's Response:

hahaha. Thanks Kimberley!

i know. sometimes i wish i could just post a 40,000 word chapter to get us thru... but i love my beta too much...it's ok...you can hate me... a little... 

she needs Rob, without a doubt. and she needs to tell him... 

so... I'll Update! hahaha

the next chapter is in the queue.

thanks! MWAH!

steph

this literally breaks my heart. i have never cried so much with any other story. you're an amazing writer and i can't wait for their reunion. thanks for writing. xoxo

Author's Response:

thank you so much. it is so wrong for me to be excited that you cried, I know. thank you so much for your support on this story!

thank YOU for reading. i couldn't do it without the love and support from ya'll!

more soon!

MWAH

steph

I got all sniffly, that must have been really hard to write.. and I dunno what to make of Nick in that chapter either, but I don't think he's a bad guy cos RL Rob calls him a friend and he manages Sam too now..

Jen takes everything on her and thinks its her fault ie she killed her mother, and the baby.. and it bugs me, I think she needs to get back to London and have some therapy because actually she's lovely, she just has had a really emotionally tough life.

you did good there though xx

Author's Response:

thanks so much my dear. this sequence was rather difficult to write, let alone post. so i am glad you liked it. 

Nick...he has issues, and i think in Real Life he needs to be a little bit of a prick, not to Rob, but to the field as a whole. I think he is probably a decent guy in RL... which is why i do plan on sending him a gift basket when this story is all wrapped.

"Dear Mr. Frenkel; Please accept this nut basket with my sincerest apologies. I know you are a good man. I just had to write you that way. Regards, LL" heeheehee

oh Jen... she definitely needs to get to London and get therapy. so much of this is wrong in her head. some of it because she can't share the load. and some because she hasn't felt the love that she is receiving now from the Pattinsons. She is a good person, very caring. She needs to realize that. and therapy and the love of her new family will help. She's faltering hard at the loss. she's strong, but every strong person has their weakness. hers is motherhood and loving. 

thanks my dear.

more soon!

MWAH!

steph

oh man.. poor Jen, she's totally - as I would say in dutch - 'in de war' I can't think of good way in English to say it.

I'm looking forward to next chapter, I can't wait to have Rob and Jen reunited!

Author's Response:

thanks my dear. She is at the bottom, at war with herself. Even the strong ones falter... but she has such loving support, it can only help pull her out... 

i cannot wait for Rob and Jen to be reunited either! hahaha!

thanks!

MWAH!

steph

You are amazing for posting as soon as you do Steph! You take the time to respond to all your reviews (x 2), write OTT, plus write this emotionally draining section of this wonderful story - all as regular as clockwork. You never let us down. Thank-you!

What started out for me as an enjoyable light, lemony read many months ago, has turned into a beautiful fulfilling story and journey, with the lovely characterisations you have developed.

And congratulations on your recent Faithful Shippers Award! Very well deserved. I LOVE both your stories and as always, look forward to the next installments.

Author's Response:

thank you so much hun. you bring me to tears. what started as a light lemony fic for me has turned into a life it seems! but i am so glad i did it, and so happy to see so many that have stayed on this journey with us. thank you for being here, so supportive and dedicated! it means the world to me. 

and thanks for understanding the amount of time and dedication it is to do it weekly (x2). i love it, but only because it is something i feel strongly about, and have followers that understand as well.

so thank you! for being so wonderful to me!

more soon!always!

MWAH!
