Dark affairs

Aw, you're very welcome! You deserve it! :D
And oh, gotcha. Those are often the most promising ideas, so I'm glad you went for it! :) And that it worked out, sweet. :D
Awesome, I will definitely check it out. I occasionally check out the main stories page once I'm done reading updates, so I'll probably see it. :) But if not, feel free to always let me know in a message when you post it. :)

Oh my, thank you gurl! I'm actually blushing! So much praise!
But you are right I looked back and was surprised how long this story had gotten!
A lot of it wrote itself because I had almost the whole storyline in my head. I was thinking myself that there should be a sequel but first I'm off to another story that has been spooking around in my head. It might take a while but it would be cool if you would look out for it. :)

Awww, thank you so much, I guess it wasn't an ending that pleased everyone but I hope you can live with it. I don't know if Jack has really forgiven Alex but it had been years and he wouldnt kick out a friend in need. I also thought the epilogue practically screamed 'sequel'. Let's see if I can come up with a plot for this. ;)

Awww, it's over. :((
But this was a cute ending though! It was a bit sad at the beginning, but then things just got a bit more uplifting and that made it more happy. OMG, I can't believe she had a kid! I wonder who the father is? :O
But I guess it doesn't really matter, if the kid has both of them in his life. :) Interesting ending to the story, I definitely did not see that coming. But I loved it and I'm glad it ended somewhat happily. :D
Overall, amazing job with this story. I feel when I made suggestions, you really took them into consideration, and that makes you an even better writer for trying to improve and taking feedback. The plot line was unique to anything I've read ATL fan fic wise, but I wasn't expecting less, given the uniqueness to your other stories I read. :) I was a bit hesitant with reading at first (mainly because I never really read Jalex anything), but that relationship was just put in moderately and you had Mickey's POV weighing it all, which provided a great balance for someone like me who's not used to reading Jalex fan fics, lol.
If you choose to do a sequel, I will definitely read it! But if not, I thought you did a great job with wrapping this up, and I want to thank you for sticking with it and giving us an ending. So many fan fics are left abandoned and it's really disheartening. And you managed this 52 chapter one in five months! Girl, that is an accomplishment, and you deserve major kudos. Many fan fics I've read have taken years to get that many chapters, if even that many at all; many stories, less chapters than that in years. So seriously, great job with sticking with this. That also makes you an awesome writer, you're very dedicated. :)
If there is not a sequel, I really hope you consider writing another fanfic, because I would be interested in checking out anything new as well. :)
Overall, job well done! I enjoyed reading!

Okay, for starters, I really enjoyed this story and I am sad to see it go.

The beginning of this last chapter was pretty upsetting. I didn't think Alex really would completely ditch Mickey and Jack and the entire band. But I guess I was wrong! It's nice that Jack was finally able to move forward and create a new business venture that combined his two favorite things, Mickey and music.

But the ending! Alex comes back! Divorce. A baby?? Who's the daddy!!??!! Jack seemed to forgive and accept Alex back into their lives a liiiiiittle too quickly if you ask me.

I hope you'll consider a sequel so we can find out what happens to everyone in the future. Well done story. Hope to read more from you. :-)
