Sweet story. Only thing is the question, why did he have to go in the beginning? But, it was probably meant to be short, and with that, a very fine job done.

Very sweet! You have an awesomely developed descriptive style! Many writers forget to use description as a method or a tool, thinking solely in terms of narration or even perhaps conversation between characters. Descriptive technique greatly sets the scene, can fill in blank spaces or dragging places in a tale, and can truly breathe life into what might otherwise read only as a 'he said/she said'.....
Enjoyed it! I rarely review, and not because I don't read and greatly enjoy the fiction; rather, I almost always enjoy fanfiction, sometimes adoring it, sometimes moved to blubbering tears and sobs by tearful, sad, or bittersweet tales; sometimes having to go wake up my ole fella or take a cold shower (or whatever....) when a story's rating and heat factor are right up there with the likelihood that it's rated NC-17 and/or PWP; usually sticking with a story even though spelling and grammar are awful, a 'ship doesn't exactly suit me, or it's pretty obvious that English is either not the writer's original language or that the writer is just beginning and has put a lot of themselves on the line to post a story. But anyway, I'm pulling a Buffy and Willow and rambling....I've gotten into reading a LOT of fanfic, in the last year. I decided "Hey, I LIKED the show, why not read
wHAT I LIKE to read! And in ways and in any myriad of outcomes of HOW I'd LIKE to read it!" Ergo, the fanfic reading....hey, online anyway, is lots cheaper than paperbacks in the longrun, is relaxing at night, and with either the cell phone browser or laptop is portable.
But back to reviewing----I prefer to respond to direct review linkups like is set up on this site, so I don't have to stop, open up yahoo or AOHell or whatever, as by that time I'll lose the built up steam to respond and/or critique or praise. Also, seriously, my parrots ate the keys off my laptop's keyboard when I fell asleep before closing the infernal thing early one a.m.; Dell graciously decided in light of all of their recent problems that since mine was truly overheating for some reason, it would be best to just replace it for me and give me time to copy one HDD to the other. So, is actually easier to type AND review now....
But, also, sometimes it is simply the uniqueness of a story, a premise, an original character or situation, handling of a difficult subject matter, or as in your case, skill, craftmanship, style and flair in a simple story that begged me to praise.
The story? Not so original! But hey, we love the old tales revamped (pardon tne pun) and told anew. And sweetly! Personally, I think we could ALL use more of a little bit of sweetness in our daily lives!
So, thanks for the story! I've probably read a half-dozen or so short to medium length fics tonight, plus caught up on some updates on ongoing fics, checked others for updates, and have a good dozen other fics pulled up on my desktop TO read or look at.
So far, yours is the only one tonight, actually in several days at least, that I've felt drawn to review.
Again, thanks, Enjoyed it!

cute story! I got the whole they = parents and whatnot thing. And I figured that the reason he had to leave was because she was underage. But it also led me to believe he was leaving on her 17th birthday. which would be the suckiest birthday present ever. Awesome little fluff though!

BTW, what was the Mr and Mrs Smith line? I have yet to see that movie=)

sweet but i didnt really understand it. why did he have to leave! who were "they" ? why couldnt she go with him?
Author's Response: I guess i was a little to metaphoric in this story for my own good... I made a few references to Romeo and Juliet,... which basically gives that "they" = their parents. There's not a concrete answer to why he had to leave... he could've been too old for her. The best thing i can say is that their parents didn't approve ... which doesn't answer why he had to "leave" per say,... so create an answer for yourself.... it could've been family obligations, schoolwork, etc... And she couldn't go with him because she was underaged and had to stay with her parents. hope that helped clear things up.

Sorry, I haven't seen Mr. & Mrs. Smith so no catching the line. This was cute little fic. I feared first it would have a sad ending but it didn't. That's even better :) (Thought for a moment they would miss one another.) :-D

I haven't seen that movie, so I probably missed it. I really loved this story. It was really cute and I'm glad they found each other again and had a better ending than Romeo and Juliet. Why did Spike have to leave in the first place? Anyway, great work=)
