i liked everything from annabelle's name to james's reference to the title, it's just a habit and i loved lily's reponse being only a raised eyebrow
i can't wait for the next chapter; happy writing(:
Witherwings
Yipee, first reader! Thanks lots. I usually put my title further on in the story, but I couldn't think of anything else and it fit, sooo, that's it haha! I'm not sure how I came up with Annabelle, I think I might have read it in another book... But anyway I hope you keep reading, thanks again. smile.gif

Happy reading. biggrin.gif

Hey, Witherwings. i loved L-O-V-E-D your story. I love white fluffy cats. I have one question though. Where did you get the name and spelling of Sara? I am only asking because my cousins name is Sara and i am a very curious person. Anyway can't wait for more. Oh and it would be helpful (It would also get you more readers) If you kept putting the chapters in the younger hp fans forum. I am going to run back to the forum now. TTYL.

Thank you Isla! I love white fluffy cats too, I have two. biggrin.gif
I dont know why I named her Sara.. I was trying to find a french name and I know someone whose name is Sara, and she's french, and I know someone whose name is Sarah and she's english. biggrin.gif

I already wrote the second chapter muahaha, but I have to wait a bit before I post it!

Witherwings,
I absolutely loved your story! It's off to an amazing start and I just can't wait to read more!
Also, if you're still interested in one I'd be honored to beta for you?


Let me know and keep writing!

Thank you! I'm hoping I won't stop in the middle of this one and give up. But I've worked really hard on the plot and I like how its going, sooo I think it'll last.
And yeah, that would be awesome if you could beta! I will PM you right now. smile.gif

PS; I was creeping on your posts to see if you were a worthy beta (haha) and you haven't posted in SOSS in a while! wink.gif

Witherwings,
I LOVE your story!
I thought every part of it was great, but i absolutely loved this part : " 'Hey, Evans. Wanna go out with me?' I had a million insults in mind, but I simply raised an eyebrow. He smiled some more.'Just a habit,' he said, shrugging. He waved at us and left, letting the door slide shut behind him. "
Can't wait for the next chapter! smile.gif

Hey Nathalie,

I really like the first chapter. It's soooo much better than mine. (link in sig.) rolleyes.gif I really love it. Don't stop. You're a great writer! I love all the details and explanations. I can see it in my mind. I really love it.

I'm gonna go read 2 now.......*grabs cookie out of kitchen goes and sits in comfy chair to read amazing story* smile.gif

Alrighty,

I really loved it. The scenes you're putting in, all the conflict. I absolutely love it. The running into Severus thing that was a good twist to the story. I especially love the little songs at the beginning. It normally only takes me as long as the song to read the whole chapter. I really do love it.

For a beta I highly, highly recommend zwillo (Dayna) She's my beta. She's helping my try to put more details and things in my story. she's truly amazing. I really love her. biggrin.gif She's really nice ,too. Sooo helpful. tongue.gif

Keep up the writing. Practice makes perfect!!

Hugs, Emery
Witherwings
Harry.Potter.Geek; Thaaank you smile.gif I'm doing better with this story than I thought I would, hope you all keep reading! It's time I write another chapter.

Emery; Thanks to you too! Glad to hear you understand very well, haha. Also, the little things I add might end up seeming really odd after a while, cause I try too hard to add random subplots. tongue.gif

As for the beta- it doesn't apply anymore, I've got one. smile.gif But thanks for the suggestion!

life does get in the way for writing and reading... sigh
i'm also trying to slow it my writing down to, so i give you my sympathies, but you seem like you're suceeding more then me(:
i really liked this chapter; it really hit close to home for me. my 2 "best friends" called me plenty of swear words that would be censored out of here and told me that they were sick of my drama, so i can relate to lily when she sees snape in the hallway
i can't wait for the next chapter; happy writing(:

Wonderful story! I love reading about Lily and James when they were still in school, because it's something we've never really experienced before. It's off to a great start so far and I loved how you added the title in at the end of chapter one; it fit so perfectly.

You're a very talented writer and I enjoy reading all of the descriptions because you can really understand how each character is feeling. I hope you post the next chapter soon! Can't wait for more.

P.s. I love the name Annabelle, it's so pretty. happy.gif
Witherwings
I posted chapter 3, finally!

marauderxforever; sorry to hear about your friends.. and your lack of time to write. sad.gif Hopefully that gets better soon! I actually don't have a life, I just procrastinate and somehow manage to feel busy. Anyway, thank you, and sorry I kept you all waiting so long for this chapter. smile.gif

MagicTrioFan11; Thank you! I'd done a L/J before but it sucked... biggrin.gif I'll probably say the same about this one in a few months, but oh well. I'm working very hard on the plot. Glad you enjoy reading it!

I thought this part was funny laugh.gif :
QUOTE
'Speaking of Quidditch,' I said suddenly, coming to a halt. James was standing a few feet away, wearing his full Quidditch robes and holding his broom. He was apparently in a serious argument with a painting, until he gave up and hit his fist on the wall. He looked around and saw us.

Haha, good chapter and write more soon smile.gif
