I know that a lot of other stories have a lot more than this but I don't fucking care because I'm honestly so happy this story even got any views.

This story is the first book that I've ever published on Wattpad and is something that I didn't even think I'd ever finish. I honestly thought I'd get like five chapters into it and then give up so this is really important to me.

This story is something that I'll never forget.

Thank you to everyone that has read this story.

Thank you to everyone that has voted.
Thank you to everyone that has commented.

Thank you to everyone that has put this story in your reading list.

Thank you to everyone that has even messaged me or posted on my wall asking for an update.

Thank you everyone for everything you've done.

But mostly thank you Andweaweekes.

There were so many times that I thought about completely abandoning this story and just never coming back to it and leaving it unfinished but she kept on encouraging me to finish it.

Without her, this story wouldn't even be complete and I wouldn't have an amazing online friend that literally lives like twenty minutes away from me (crazy right?).

I'm dedicating this entire story to her because these two years, three months, and thirteen days of writing wouldn't even exist.

So thank you Andrea.

Okay now I'm crying and I wasn't planning on this.

ANYWAYS

Just thank you so much to not only her but to everyone. I love you all so much even if we've never talked but still. I have no idea how I could ever repay anyone that gave this story a chance.

Just thank you.

Jesus I'm a mess.

Now onto my explanation.

I had no more inspiration to continue like I ran out of ideas on what to add to this story.

That's honestly all there is to it so I'm sorry.

I'm sorry that this story didn't even have the element of conflict like I feel like this story is really bad and uninteresting.

But hey if you liked it then thanks a lot.

That's all I have to say.

Thank you and I'm sorry.

I'm not going to stop writing.

I still have my other story Regret (this story is honestly so much better in my opinion but I know a lot of people probably don't like who it's about) and if I can I'm going to try to think of another plot and maybe start writing about someone new (key word is maybe).

Thank you guys so much I love you and if you ever want to talk then feel free to message me.

Thank you for an amazing two years. I'll miss this experience but I'll treasure it forever.
