Please, just hear me out.

I know most of you probably hate me – I would too. I mean, I'm a crappy author who hasn't updated in like 3 months. I just wanted to tell you I am going to update as soon as possible. My life is just kinda messed up right now – I had no computer for most of the summer, I just had knee surgery, high school is starting, I'm moving, and right now my parents are going through a nasty split. And with me being under 18, there is all of this custody crap. I just wanted to let you know that I am NOT abandoning this story. And I WILL make sure I write with the best of my ability when I do update. Speaking of which, the next chapter is about half way written.

I do however have one request, if you don't hate me enough. I'd like to ask for people to not review this chapter … er, author's note – whatever you want to call. What I'm going to do is just replace this note with the real chapter when I update, and with the only-one-review-per-chapter rule, you wouldn't be able to review the real one – that is if you don't hate me enough to quit on me.

Again, I'm really, really, really sorry that I haven't been updating. If you have any questions, pm me and I will gladly answer them – unless of course they are about why Jacob is taking Bella, cuz that's where I draw the line, kiddies ;)

Please don't kill me,

P.S. Ya, I know; I suck.
