Hello everyone! 

I just wanted to take a moment to address a few things and I will be posting an update shortly after, however first thing's first...

THANK YOU FOR OVER 10k READS?!

I honestly never thought one of my fan fics would ever break 1k let alone 10, so thank you so much for that. I know a lot of people have been questioning my, for lack of a better word, hiatus with this story and I'd like to explain my reluctance to keep this story up to date as I used to.

1. the plot

I never particularly planned to see this story through since I didn't expect it to gain much attention and really only began it for fun out of a late night prompt idea I had around a year ago. I never planned out the plot or how I expected the storyline to really play out like I usually do with other works I'm more serious about. To put it simply I've been writing out of my ass trying to figure out where I want this story to go next and it's made me a bit frustrated with the plot I've formulated so far, as most of the chapters are all over the place.

However, despite this, I want to continue with the story and try to stabilize the plot since we are still only in the beginning. I will most likely return and edit the beginning chapters. I've already tweaked a few small things in Chapter 10, but there's far more progress to be had. 

I personally feel as if the story has become somewhat predictable but perhaps that's just me, given I haven't gotten an outside opinion on it yet.

2. 5sos

After graduating High School and starting University I unfortunately fell out of touch with the 5sos fandom as a whole and the band :( which truly saddens me since I used to feel such a personal connection with the music and the boys, however I'm trying to re-explore it. I still listen to their music regularly but I'm just not as involved as I once was.

Those are really the only things holding me back from updating, but I've decided to take a different approach to the story and I think it's helped encourage me to continue writing. I'm currently editing my next chapter and I do hope it is up to everyone's expectations as we continue the story of Diana and Calum's struggle to maneuver their confusing dynamic. Expect the next chapter to be up within the next few days!

Thank you again!

Sincerely,

Author.
