So Long Soldier

Summary

Anastasia Wilde has just moved from Oxford, England to Baltimore, USA. Her dad died 2 years ago, and she didn't want to move, but her mother insisted. Her new neighbour is pretty cool though, he plays drums in a band: All Time Low.

She gets to know each boy individually, but when she makes eyes at Alex, and the action is returned, her past comes up in an ugly episode with an envious third party... what will the boys think? Will they judge her because of her difficult past? How will her relationships develop? What underhand tactics will be used? Too many questions, too little time.

Comments

Just need to say Amazing story wow

Wow, great story. I just read all of it and figured I would leave a comment letting you know people are still stumbling across it.
This was definitely a roller coaster with all the ups and downs... I think this is the first story I've seen that hasn't been divided into two parts, especially with the gap of them in high school, and then like so long after. So kudos for being different and keeping it all in one story.
The only thing I found a bit odd was the ending, don't get me wrong, it was very sweet! Just realistically it didn't really add together. Like the fact there's more to getting married than just going to a church (on a legal standpoint anyway) and then the fact that that George guy was there; nothing was ever brought up with him again after Steph had that fling with him and I just found that a bit odd. So they kind of just dismissed it? Did Macy ever find out? Although that would've brought even more drama to the story so maybe you just decided to skip out on that, lol. Or maybe it was being saved for later, after this moment. Idk.
But great job with it, overall. I really enjoyed the love story behind it, and I'm happy that they ended up together. I'm glad that Alex saw past the kids thing; it's sad, but it's touching that he still loved her no matter what. :')
I really enjoyed the story. You're a great writer, and I really hope you're still at least writing on your own time.
