Illusions of Love

"All Ellie's brain thinks about is sugar, caffeine, and Jack," Merritt said. I gasped and said, "I am offended," I paused as everyone looked between me and Merritt, "I also think about chocolate and gummy bears." Jack/OC

10. Ellie's Age (Explanation & AN)

Okay, to clear this up because people keep messaging me about it. *sigh*

Jack is not engaged to a 13/14 year old. Ellie is 27, but as I explained earlier in Chapter 4, I said, and I quote, "Ellie had the metabolism of a five year old- she could eat sugar, but the sugar made her super hyper, giddy, and practically uncontrollable." She is smart, she has a brain, she uses it, but she eats so much sugar all the time that it makes her practically uncontrollable and it makes her brain fuzzy, and she... acts like a five year old. As I said.

I also said in the author note in Chapter 5, "I finally figured out why this story is so fluffy and... hyper (?) compared to my normal stories. Because I don't make my stories fluffy or that romantic; I put it all in this story. I finally got it." If you bothered to read it (which I know, most people don't. Trust me, I'm guilty of it too.)

But just so you know, I'm offended that you all think that she's 13/14. You guys saying, "Oh she sounds like she's 13/14." No. That's making Jack a pedophile. No. This is not Twilight (sorry I couldn't resist that comment.)

So please stop messaging me about it. Thank you.
