getting good-- depends on your definition of good... im glad you like it tho. Next post... i'll hurry but it probably wont be for a while cuz classes just started back up again and i've forgotten everyhting from first semester in Greek. oh great. well, back to work on homework so i can then work on the story.

hey karlamarie. Thanks for the comment! Too bad Minerva is deputy headmistress and that sort of behaviour isn't acceptable of a lady. *snicker* besides, you know how minnie is about her cubs. even if they do go around lookin for trouble! And yes, Ron is an evil prick.

Chapter 6 is in the typing, so never fear! Might take a little while, but it'll be ready to send to my beta by the end of the month.

dont worry, someone will. they will indeed.

Awww! Julianna, you just put a huge smile on my face. <3I'm working on the next chappie for you (and everyone else! ) I'm just so busy with school starting up again and all. I'll make ya a deal, I'll write more, you do my homework? lol. jk, jk. Thank you for your lovely comment!

*thinks*except i dont mind frogs and toads. Ron i mind a lot. I'd never insult a toad like that!

Well Erica, it's not abandoned. It's just...stalled. You think it's good? I read it last night and was getting mad at myself. lol. So, I am trying to make the next chapter a bit longer than its predecessors and trying to make it flow better along with incorporating hints which my comments have given. Unfortunately, this is proving to be harder than I thought. Anyways, my beta is being amazing, as usual, and reading over chapter 5 today. It's gonna need a lot of work, but right now I'm sick and all i do is lay in bed so hopefully i can get it up to par soon. lol. Thanks for your sweet review!

I'm having a ton of trouble pacing this. No. The worst is yet to come, sadly. Yes, what you think does matter--I like to hear what people think of my work. So far, I've learned I need longer chapters, better canon compliance, more explanation, and to slow things down.I think, if anything, I need to slow the story down. Take my time, make my chapters longer. I know I can write better than what i've been submitting.

idk. maybe im just not meant to write fan fic. oh well. yea. i thot it was fast too, but i figured ppl wud want them to have something going on... oh well. sry it didnt please you

I'm not flaming your efforts at all.  I think you show promise as a fanfic writer and was trying to offer constructive criticism.  I'm sorry you took that as an insult.  And there is nothing wrong with taking your time to develop the relationship.  Fanfiction is all about writing what YOU want how YOU want it.  As long as you do that and stay true to yourself you have nothing to be ashamed of or regret.  Don't necessarily do what you "think" people want you to.  Just be yourself.  Good luck.

Sorry for responding so harshly. I'm trying so hard to make it a story ppl will want to read, versus just me being stupid. I appreciate contrustive criticism, I'm just really sensitive. Im trying to make myself into a better writer though--I gotta get over it. I guess I just wanna make everyone happy, and I got to learn its impossible huh? Thank you for the tips though. I will definetly slow things down. Thanks.

Mee too.lol. He's gonna get called more. Ik they're OOC. Idk if you've seen other reviews, but this is based off a true story, so its basically just not too far off history harry potterized and fanfic-ed. lol. So, yeah..

but thank you! It makes me so happy to hear that someone enjoys it!

Ik! The chapters are sooo short! I'll try to make them longer, but they just seem to be good pausing points. I'll try to keep Snape reined in. Thanks for the advice!

Alrighty. I fixed up the lines. Yeah, they were annoying me too.On Ron's punishment...several people have been commenting about that. Pretty much, this is based on somehting that happened a few years ago. The guy who did it didn't get expelled, or even a detention. He got told to stay away from me. The story will continue, just as the real story did. With a few minor exceptions. If you wanna know the similarities and differences, I think I'll list them all at the end.Thanks for your review!

You have got to be kidding, this is based on what happened to you!?

now i really need to read your story

Ill tell you now darl, that even tho i dont know you and i expect you live very far away, that i would if i could find the jerk off that did that to you and belt him one!!

you prolly dont want to hear any of this, as i wouldnt really but i ned to let this out. I'm outraged, didnt your parentals complain, if not i would have sued the bloody school or got a restraining order which would force that A- hole out of the school!!! anyway ill leave you to your life and stop with my not helpful rambling.

-k

thanks?My psychologist said that writing about it might help ease some of the apparent "Psychological trauma" and "emotional anguish". so, here i am.As i said before though, this story has been Harry-Potterized and fanfic-ed. I never went to a boarding school, the first of the incidents didnt happen in my room, ive never had an affair with a teacher (nor do i wish to!), and there was no magic involved. lol.I probably should have had her dating Draco, because my ex's father had very close ties with the school. Thats why the school didn't really pay too much attention. But i hate Ron and I love Draco. so, it had to be Ron to get the hell kicked outta him.This is my way of serving justice when everyone else turned a blind eye. And believe you me, justice will be served.

Ron is still at Hogwarts because i need him for the story. lol. No. Dumbledore is very forgiving, as we've seen in canon with all the shite Harry has pulled. One of the contingencies of Ron's remaining at Hogwarts is that he keeps to his boundaries and no longer harrasses her. Not to worry--Ron's punishment is far from over.

p.s. the basis of this story is based on real life. While certain events and obviously the characters have changed, the foundation of this story is a true story. Had the guy who did it in real life gotten expelled, so would Ron. Unfortunately, he didn't, so Ron didn't either.

Interesting - and yes I believe that might happen in a school. My daughter was stalked while at a Canadian high school. It became intolerable and the school was pathetic. She finished her secondary education by correspondence. One side effect was that her grade average increased 20% or more.NOW- get back to writing... shoo!

I couldn't find it. Do you have a direct link? I kept getting stuff about edgar allen poe. lol.

Thanks.Yea, I'm safe--it's a lot different.Thank you though!

hee hee hee. ol' Ron is far from over dear, let me tell you that. After all, how many men do you know who are satisfied with just a taste of sex and power?

Thank you so much! It really makes my day to read reviews like that!
