I don't know what it is about you and writing Katie/Naomi that just draws me in.
What I quite like about this AU is the way you're developing them at such a young age but events and happenings that could take place later. It gives a sort of off-center, heightened and unpredictable feel to the piece as a whole. Separates and connects it to skins. All in all, everything you'd want in an AU. No promises that I'll stick with it, I'm done promising things online :P But I will most definitely see where it's heading! Solid opening my friend <3

That's awesome though, Nat, thanks. When I was thinking about this I was like 'should I make this a version of S3 where Naomi just sees Katie first?' but it's sort of more than that, so there are parts in here which could lead to canon but also parts that just aren't.
No worries if you don't stick with it babe - can I ask why you might not? Just out of interest - like, obviously, I won't change anything I have planned but I'm just interested to know.
Much love! ♥

It's more so that I'm just crap at keeping up with series, I don't know why, because I seem to have a fine time just keeping up with certain writers' works, but series I suck at.
Usually I forget the first bit, or forget I read the first bit, and it doesn't click for me to read the second because I'm far too lazy to read first parts in order to read the followings.
Basically I'm a lazy lazy lazy and forgetful excuse for a reader. But summer's here, so who knows!

Ah, so you're more of a one-shot kind of gal then? Hopefully I won't have these chapters too far apart so you might be able to keep up with it :) Don't worry if not though.

Yeah there's rather a lot going on here - like even though it's AU I wanted to keep elements of everyone in there. Or most of them really. And I see Katie being different without Emily so it's the class she shares with Naomi that is the most important for them.
Hot kisses ftw! Poor Ems though... what's her problem, eh?! ;)
Cheers mate! And no probs!
(Hope your eye is okay though - wtf?!)

What team are you on, btw? Team Emily or Team Katie?!
(And, right - I'll make sure I never, ever do that. Jesus!)

YOU ARE BACK!!!!! I am so excited for this story and while I know you have an amazing Katie/Naomi track record I have to keep in mind that this story doesn't have a pairing yet and for all we know anything could happen.
I really can't wait for the next chapter because you are an amazing long chapter writer.
Thank you twistomatic for getting you back :D

I've totally abandoned the concept of middle school so, no, Year 10 is just secondary school. Middle school is sometime between ages 10 and 12 I think, and it just never made sense to me that Naomi would have snogged Emily so early. So bugger that - I'm making the rules now!
LOL, Naomi hasn't paid attention to anything. Silly Naoms.
And you're too lovely - thanks for this darling. Glad you're enjoying so far! Hope your heart holds out... :)
