Hey guys.

We all know that ANs for chapters are usually a bad thing and this is no exception. Basically, I am not going to write anymore of this story. I am so sorry to those of you that were looking forward to more of it but I just have no idea where this is headed to be quite honest. But the main reason for doing this is that this story has, in fact, already been written. I got a lot of comments saying that this was really similar to 'Poughkeepsie' so I went and checked it out. And, apart from a few things here and there, it was pretty identical. So I decided that there is no point in me writing something that has already been done and I don't want to be accused of plagiarism because I would never do that. I did write some more but there's not very much and it's not very good.

I will leave this up for a couple of days or so so that people can read it and then I will probably take it down along with some other stories that aren't going to come to anything. I will see what I can do about picking it up again maybe one day if I can think of another direction to go in but I can't see that happening in the near future.

I'm really, honestly sorry and I regret having to do this because this definitely got the best response any first chapter of mine ever has and it makes me feel really sad that I'm going to have to disappoint this many people. But I'm going back to the drawing board to start another AH Twilight fanfic and it would mean a lot to me if you'd keep an eye out for it and continue to read 'The Hard Way To Learn A Lesson' as I know so many of you are.

I'd like to say an even bigger sorry to Macho Man because I know how much you liked the start of this (even more than THWTLAL!) and the next chapter was going to be dedicated to you and I feel really sad that I can't do that. But I actually can't. I've tried to write it, but (if you write) you'll all know how hard it is when you force the story to come and how rubbish it is when you read it back. Honestly, I tried so hard not to give this up. Everywhere I went, I wracked my mind for a way to change this so that it would be different from 'Poughkeepsie' but I just can't do it.

So I'm really sorry guys but if you haven't read 'Poughkeepsie' by 'MrsTheKing' and were looking forward to finding out where this was headed, then go and check that out. Because it's pretty much the same, except for the third person thing (which, I have to admit, annoyed me slightly, but hey-ho).

Thanks for reading this in the first place though and hopefully when I post a new story you'll like that one even more. Sorry again

Steph
