Ooh, I don't know how I feel about how that ended. Of course I'm happy Bill stood up to Tom and chose to face his financial fears head-on. He has Bu to help him. And Bu seems so good and happy to be with Bill. I hope we get to see their happy life together, and Tom setting his life right in the sequel/epilogue. :)
Author's Response: Wondering what has you feeling not so great about the ending? (Always curious!). More in the sequel! Thanks for all your great reviews!

Author's Response: Hey, I'm the same way. I save up all my comments and thoughts and wait til the last chapter before writing a review. After all the fun conversations I've had with the readers on this one, though, that might change. rnAnd there will be a short sequel/epilogue. Maybe short. This one went on a lot, lot longer than I thought it would, so we'll see! It's great that you liked this so much that you practically had a fit of a review! Very cute.

I loved this story. My heart is still crying. Tom, if you will continue sending therapist because of the high libido. Bill, do the college, but have a baby who is Tom's baby. And let them be together again. Discover love again. I enjoyed the writing style. This is a wonderful work. Congratulations
Author's Response: Thank you so much! Not sure if things will turn out how you're hoping they might.... :(

A love Quad at it's best. I'm starting to love Billshido pairing if Bushido was as adorable as his character here and Bill being so vulnurable. And Tom's character here really suits him being an asshole and being cradled by his father's arms. Infidelity is the worst nightmare ever foretold in past, present and future. I love your wonderful mind so keep on giving more interesting and unique stories. BTW I also love your 3 stories. Planning a sequel? I love to know. Have wonderful day....^_^
Author's Response: I swooned. Need an old-timey fainting couch and some smelling salts. Thank you! Love the phrase "being cradled by his father's arms." Yeah, Senior encouraged Tom to behave like a spoiled, selfish brat. Working on the sequel, planning a Tomshido (so excited for it!). You read the other 3? Glad to hear you enjoyed them! I had a lot of fun with the Digging stories! And this definitely ensured a wonderful day, thank you!

Un final digno de esta linda historia que me atrapó desde el primer capítulo, gracias por compartirla, muy feliz por Anis y Bill, gracias por tomarte el tiempo de descifrar word by word :D You're amazing..!!
Author's Response: This one, I can pretty much figure out :) It's overwhelming that you call this a beautiful story! It was a lot of fun to write, and all of you made it that much better. And finishing it? I'd have to practically lose an arm to not finish a story. One of my biggest pet peeves. No, the biggest. Second is sloppy spelling. rnI'm glad you're happy for Bill and Anis. Maybe they can have a happily ever after ;) And it was a lot of fun translating your Spanish. Seriously, I've got to learn. I live 2 hours from Mexico, for goodness sake! Thank you for taking the time to write, loved every second of it!

The serial killer fic you were wondering about, could it have been Just Another Fave in the Crowd, and its sequel Just Another Happy Couple? Cuz yea, those were good. If not, and you do remember the title I would love to know it and read it.
So, its over. I think you ended this beautifully well. Tom, again, had some nerve. Frickin...just GAAAHH!!!
You did a wonderful job getting into Bill's psyche. And I am so pleased Anis was ablse to soothe his fears. I'm sure its going to be tough, but I think he can learn to feel safe and secure with upper middle class.
Can't wait to see the sequel/epilogue thing! *hugs* keep up the awesome work!
Author's Response: That's it! That's the one! I loved those stories. Think the last one was never finished (*throwing tiny tantrum in the name of unfinished stories*). I'm so glad you think the ending was that good! Endings can be difficult, they can trail too long (which is what I worried about with this story, which went on and on and on - thought I'd be done with it within a couple weeks of the first post! Ah hahahahahaha!) or they can be too abrupt (which I also worried about because everything else was highly detailed and slow paced). rnAnd that Bill's insecurities came across so well....huge sigh of relief. Thank you! I'm thinking Bill will do just fine as long as there's no huge debt.rnEpiloguish sequely thing coming up! Thank you!
Date: 03/04/12 07:33 pm Title: Chapter 24
You´re welcome :D
In the sequel, i´d really like to read Tom´s POV about how miserable he is *evilgrin*
Author's Response: I'm thinking I'm going to have a couple of chapters with Tom's pov....stay tuned.
Date: 03/04/12 05:44 pm Title: Chapter 24
Doll u're the best
Thanx for that: it's so overwhelming and I'm happy to shared that story with us.
I live thru it wiating oh so impatiently every day to read the follow up. Sequel or not, u are by far my fav writer and it's my fav story of all.
Thanx again it's all I can say. Not much but it ays it all xxx
Author's Response: Wow! I am so flattered to be your favorite, thank you! It says everything, and I'll be working on the sequel and posting it as soon as possible, more Billshido coming up! Thanks for taking the journey with me :)
Date: 03/04/12 05:35 pm Title: Chapter 24
Like your other readers I am sorry that your excellent story has ended, but so happy there'll be a sequel. This was an amazing last chapter. Anis is incredible, understanding all Bill's insecurities and talking him through them. Bill knows he sounds shallow caring about money and possessions so much but Anis sees through the superficiality and understands that Bill's past has shaped the way he is now.
I'm glad Tom finally did the right thing and left Bill to his packing. He had his moment when his jealousy shone through, but I guess he realised he had no claim to righteous indignation after what he'd done. But I do think he really loves Bill; he just can't keep his dick in his pants.
I still have this little part of me that wished Tom hadn't been quite such a prick and that he and Bill could have worked things out, but Bill and Anis are right for each other. I think Bill's the lucky one to have found someone who will take him on despite all his emotional baggage, and Anis is a saint really for doing that. I really hope that Bill gets his law degree and ends up with a career so that he can finally be responsible for himself and not just have to live off his lover like he did off his husband.
But, I'm guessing, since there's a sequel, that things aren't going to go quite so simply. Can't wait.
Author's Response: Hi Helen! rnI had to make Tom a prick! Had to! I'm a terrible decision maker. I even thought about putting him back with Tom toward the end, but I couldn't. If Tom had been even a little more willing to change, this would have been a whole different story. Thought about bringing Andrej back for poor, lonely Anis. But this is the path it took. I have to be careful or I'll stymie myself into writing w.i.p's in hiatus and I HATE those!!! rnrnAnis is taking on Bill's baggage, but Anis isn't perfect. He was lonely. Remember how he let Andrej go because HE was unwilling to change. Andrej hating seeing him get hurt, nearly killed, but that didn't matter enough to him, and he let go of someone he loved and who loved him. I really liked them as a pairing, thought they were a good match, but Anis just couldn't give up his occassionally dangerous lifestyle.rnrnWorking on the sequel....starting chapter one today! Thanks for all your lovely, long reviews, and chatting with me (I'll get to emails soon, I hope!).
Date: 03/04/12 05:01 pm Title: Chapter 24
That moment when Bill had his panic attack is THE BEST moment of the whole story. It is so intense and true...as I said before, you seem to young to be allowed to know such things!!
I know I am repeating myself, but it went right through me and it hurt. Poor Bill, to have to leave his beloved beautiful husband...a cheater and a liar... heartbreaking.
And my favourite line, when Anis said: “Alright, Sweetheart, talk.”
Just like that.
You made me like Bushido! Im revolting now.
and for heleng: Bill didnt cheat on Tom, he already left, BUT, he did sleep with Anis (like just sleeping, not sex)when he first realised Tom was cheating and that was not okay with me. You dont do that when you have such high standards.
Glad theres a sequel, I hope you will keep your excellent manners in updating for that, too...
Very, very good job, my dear. *sends roses and kisses*
Author's Response: Panic attacks are so fun! Had one once, induced by claustrophobia, on a train going into Tokyo during rush hour. Almost passed out, which would have been a good thing. Anyway, glad I "seem young!" (Not saying anything else about that). rnI know it's hard that Bill left Tom. A lot of people like to try again and again and again to make a marriage work. You wake up one day and your youth is gone, and you realize you're still not happy. That would be a real tragedy. Leaving now, while he's still young? Fewer years of regrets. rnI'm so glad you like Bushido! There are so few stories where he's a good guy! rnI think Bill's "high standards" would have been met by "don't stick it in anyone else's body." Not too prudish, just expectations of fidelity. As for sleeping in bed with Anis, it was definitely pushing the line. But I don't think crossing it. rnThank you for the roses and kisses, and especially the reviews!
Date: 03/04/12 05:00 pm Title: Chapter 24
Aw, this feels so good. *squirms, smiling*
Hmm, I still feel the vaguest scrap of pity for Tom, but it's otherwise gone. He needs to manhandle that cheating aspect out of his personality entirely, if not tone down the libido as well. Not to get Bill back, but to be a better person.
I had a blast reading this story, hehe :) Aw, and thanks for the mention!
PS: That diamond and sapphire bracelet still sounds divine ;) I'd love to see an image of it.
Author's Response: Wouldn't that bracelet make a great pice in the banner! If I had one! :\ Yes, Tom needs to get a hold of himself, grow up a little...okay, a lot...or he's just going to mess up one relationship after another. rnYou had a blast! That's fantastic! Makes me want to write more, fast, knowing that there are people (you!) out there having such a great time! rnrnThank you!
Date: 03/04/12 04:48 pm Title: Chapter 24
This was a very successful story. Bill did the right thing and I'm not that sad about Tom left behind because it didn't really feel like him compared to how well Anis worked out for Bill.
I'm sure Bill will feel good about getting his body back and a very stable life he can be happy in. Looking forward to Tomshido lie you wouldn't believe it, and of course it'll be nice to see what you have for the epilogue :D *hugs*
Author's Response: "A very successful story...." That is one mighty huge compliment! Thank you! I think Anis is better for Bill, and I think he appreciates him a lot more. rnBill is definitely looking forward to getting rid of the boobies. And Anis couldn't agree more. Only Tom liked them. He pervy.rnI am really looking forward to the Tomshido story!!!! So I'll be cranking out the sequel as fast as I can! Thank you for all the reviews, always fun to read.
Date: 03/04/12 04:15 pm Title: Chapter 24
Me gusto el final...pero me preocupa algo la actitud de Bill hacia el dinero, el no pudo dejar el brazalete :-O Me imagino que por eso vendra una secuela. La actitud de Tom patetica, pero de repente ha mostrado caballerosidad al apartarse y decirle a Anis que cuide bien de Bill, no se no me lo creo, el es tan mentiroso que me lo imagino es tratando de destruir o perjudicar a Bushido, el es millonario y me imagino que le seria facil hacerlo. No se que pasara, pero etoy muy emocionada de esperar la secuela :) porque siento que esto no termina con el clasico y vivieron felices para siempre.
Ahhh y gracias por el agradecimiento :), me emociona tanto poder hacer mis reviews y que te tomes el tiempo de comprenderlos, en ingles jamas podria expresar exactamente lo que quiero decir como lo hago en español, asi que tambien te quiero agradecer a ti por el esfuerzo que te tomas. You are an amazing writer!!!
Date: 03/04/12 03:38 pm Title: Chapter 24
Wow! I wasn't really expecting it to end so soon. I am happy with the way it ended, though. I feel like I got a bit of closure with this last chapter and I'm sure the sequel will give me even more.
As much as I wanted Bill and Anis together, I felt a smal stab of pain in my heart for Tom. He really doesn't deserve my sympathy but I can't help it. I can tell that he truly did love Bill and is hurting, but he doesn't deserve Bill at all. I had a small amount of hope that things would work out between Tom and Bill because it is sad that their relationship had come to this. I'm happy Bill has Anis and now, Anis has Bill.
Thank you for this wonderful story! I can't wait for the sequel and for more stories from you! =]
Author's Response: You know, Tom had to be a bad guy. If I made him even a little sympathetic, I would have been continually pulled as to who to put Bill with in the end. I'd have had to split the story at one point, and made two completely different endings (hmmmmmm.....). I think he fits with Anis better, and will grow as a person with him, rather than his in Tom's insulated nest above the average folk. rnAnd you're right, Anis does have Bill. I wanted to put more of how much he needed that, toward the end, but the story picked up speed and just stopped where it did. Maybe in the sequel.rnrnThank you for all your wonderful reviews, I'll be getting out more asap!
Date: 03/04/12 02:46 pm Title: Chapter 1
Billshido love conquers all!!!! Yeah baby!!! I just loved how you tied up this story. I think my favorite part in this chapter was the conversation between Bill and Bushido about finances. I think it was handled in a very mature and real way because after all of the "I-love-yous" and great sex, you have to be real with yourself about what you truly need in a relationship aside from love. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I love that you kept Bill-Bill, if that makes sense. He wasn't on this whole kick of 'I don't want anything from Tom,blah,blah..' Instead he went to get all of his clothes, shoes, etc. and even when trying to leave a message for Tom by leaving the cuff, the person he is wouldn't let him do that, he went back and took that too and I say, Good for him!! This story was a real gem and I have to say a million thanks for writing my absolute favorite pairing. I hope there's more to come in the future. :)
Author's Response: Thank you, this was a wonderful review, it said a lot in one little paragraph. First: Yay Billshidoooooooo!!!! Yes, there will be more in the future, although the story I have planned may not bode well for the couple (not the sequel...the next one....*rubs hands together and grins evilly*). I'm so glad you think the conversation was realistic - I'm a super talker, so I have long, long discussions with my partner daily about everything from evolution and the brains of dinosaurs, to cute tops. I know not everyone has their Mercury in Gemini (laffin, but it's true!), so I thought maybe a long discussion would turn some people off. And that Bill came across as natural, his insecurities staying in place - whew! As for the bracelet - who would leave a gorgeous diamond and sapphire cuff behind? He ain't crazy. rnThank you for reading, thank you for reviewing, and thank you for wanting more!
Date: 03/04/12 02:16 pm Title: Chapter 24
You have no idea how I've been sitting here and biting my nails, waiting for this chapter and now that it's over I feel pretty sad. This was such a good story and a unique and realistic plot [as realistic as mpreg and Billshido can get xD] and I thoroughly enjoyed every word. I felt the last chapter was a tiny bit rushed but I think that's my own denial at this story ending and I'm trying to find excuses for you to write more. :P
I'm glad Bill found closure. It's shocking Tom expected Bill to forgive him and then pins his own insecurities on Bill and Bushido's relationship. God I don't know what to say about him hahaha!
Can't wait for the sequel and thanks soooooo much for the mention!!!!! :3
Author's Response: You being sad about the story ending makes me happy. Is that wrong? Ecstatic to hear that you liked it so much! I did try to make the mpreg work - stem cells create miracles, so maybe in the far future, this will be a reality! God, let's hope not. rnI tried not to rush it, but at the same time, felt that it had to just be wrapped up. Especially knowing I'd be getting into more things in the sequel. rnrnI don't know quite what to say about Tom myself. Jerkface . rnrnAnd you got the mention cuz you earned it! Thanks for all your great reviews, I know they take time, thought, and effort.
Date: 03/03/12 05:58 pm Title: Chapter 23
That son of a bitch, Tom!! I knew it!!! You know, the thing is I could've possibly let things slid had she been LESS far along. Cuz, you know, when Tom told Bill that he needed to leave there and everything behind, I could've accepted thay as him crying out for help, that he couldn't do it, be faithful, when he was constantly in the same crowd of people. But it wasn't, with as far along as she is he couldn't have put much effort into not cheating. Does that make sense? I hope it does.
God, I don't think I've ever cheered for Bushido before...you are good. I have enjoyed this story so much, I just can't even...wonderful work. I'm sorta sad I didn't start it sooner, cuz now I'm sad that its over so soon...great work! I hope there will be a sequel!
Author's Response: That makes perfect sense, and would probably be how Tom would work it in his favor: "I have to get out of here, there's too much history, I was tempted," etcetera. But they'd have moved to Dallas, and he'd have so many saucy southern gals around him, with those adorable Texan accents, you know he wouldn't resist for long. He's kind of a dog. rnrnI'm so glad you're cheering for Bu! There are still some die-hards out there who, no matter how bad Tom is, still want him with Bill. I could probably make him a serial killer and ....wait, that's been done before...(*wonders to self* who's story was that? It was actually really good...) And anyway, your little hope has come true, there will be a sequel/long epilogue coming up! Thanks ladyX, for writing :D
