Hey guys. I know that when you open this up, some of you are probably going to be really disappointed... and I feel guilty about that one, no lies there. So, firstly, I want ot apologize for the false alarm and about the fact that this is just one of your run-of-the-mill author's notes. I always feel like such a terrible person whenever I do this, but that's not the point. I want to get straight into what I mean to tell you guys, and why this note is here instead of another chapter of beautiful HaruMichi.
First of all, I want to thank everyone that's taken the time to review and read! And everyone who's watched the story, favorited and whatnot. You have no idea how absolutely shocked I was at all the amazing feedback I got. Heh, I gotta admit, thinking about it makes me kind of teary. Cheesy, isn't it? But seriously, when I see people being so happy and positive about my story... wow, that makes me feel.. wow. Like I really accomplished something, you know? And there were so many comments for last chapter I don't even know how to begin replying to all of them. On that note, I want to say one simple thing: I really love you guys for this. xD You have no idea how happy you've made me.
And, stemming from that, I want to apologize... again. I know I haven't updated in a few months, and believe me, I feel really bad about that! All these amazing people, reviewing, alerting and favoriting.. and I haven't even delivered as I promised I would. I honestly didn't mean to go on such a long break, but I ended up doing so. For some reason it's been hard to write the next chapter of this, and I know I can't really say "yeah I was busy" because we know that's not true. Which is pretty obvious, since I've been posting stories up and neglecting this one. But believe me when I say this... I am NOT giving up on this story. I love this piece to death, and I'm most certainly not going to abandon it, especially with all you amazing people out there who have been enjoying it. I'll never give up on this, nope. I just wanted to post this to reassure you guys of that.
So, here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to type up the next chapter, but I'm not going to post it quite yet. Just hold on, though. Because after I finish typing up the next chapter, I'm going to type out the chapter after that one... so that when I release the one that's due, if I get stuck again I can resort to using the next chapter I had pre-written. If not, then I'll continue on that route. That way, if I end up slacking or struggling again, I'll still have something for you guys just in case.
If that was TL;DR, then here's the gist of it. I'm not giving up on this story, ever, and I'm preparing the next two chapters for you guys. So just wait a little while longer, I promise I won't disappoint.
If you read through this entire thing, I want to say thank you and I'm sorry for not posting up a chapter and instead bombarding you with this. I seriously love every single one of you, and I hope I can keep you enjoying my story!
