I just read all 22 chapters, and I only have one thing to say.

I know you're a busy person, I just finished with Semester tests, but I'm begging you on my knees with my hands folded, UPDATE!!!! I can't stand to wait any longer! I must know what happens! I MUST!!! I'll die if I don't get to know!! Please update! Your story has me entranced, I can't 'put it down', I guess you would say. Please update! It's so well written, and even though I'm only a beginner myself, I still have to say, IT'S INCREDABLE!!!

Well, I suppose that was more than one thing, wasn't it? Anywho, please update when you get the chance. I'm anxious to read what happens.

Thank you! Ja!

*jaw hits the floor* Oh. My. God. He was there! Naruto was right there when they openly discussed their bet! >< I was waiting for him to find out! This fic had me on SUCH a roller coaster since I started reading it last night that I haven't stopped reading it until I finished it today at...*looks at the time* Noon! O_O; At the beginning, I was reluctant to get sucked into it because I was reading finishing off another good Naruto fic at the same time, but it just pulled me in like a magnet with its humor, the switching point of views and, most importantly, all the characters' individual thoughts. I laughed so hard whenever Kiba did something ridiculous over Hinata and whenever Sasuke and Naruto gave each other shocks over distinct comments. I felt the pain of their nightmares and fights. I constantly tried to rip out my hair in frustration whenever the three of them ended up head to head in the battle for Naruto's affections. I relished in the chapters where Naruto made Sasuke brace the fear of horses and when Sasuke tried to snap Naruto out of his fear of scary movies. I lived for the tender moments of a darling sleeping Sasuke and a very attentive Naruto. And, of course, I nearly had a hear-attack with the chapters of their dressing in drag. Those particular chapters had me at the edge of my seat with happiness, anger, suspense, worry, and a harsh heart-breaking sadness mixed with frustration due to Sasuke's cruel words. And now, there Naruto is...right there...he found out about the bet...

I'm going to be honest...it's been ages since I got sucked into fanfiction. I was a real addict during my high school years, especially when I was fifteen. Now, six years later, the fever has gone down to maybe an update or two of an idol and friend...work, projects, and tutoring soaking up all of my time. This fic has brought me back to better times, a time when I was wild and full of energy...and especially the time when I first found out about Naruto and had that Konoha fever, bouncing off the walls whenever my friend imported a new DVD. I remember how much of a fan I was to the series even though I was only watching the first several episodes. After I graduated from high school, my life took a turn for the worst as it did to my closest friends and many others. For years, I've been absorbed into studies and my major and improving my skills to make a living out of what I love or die trying. Your story has brought me tears of all kinds...tears of frustration, tears of sadness, tears of joy. And in this chaos that is my life right now, the loss of close family members and my best friend still a fresh wound in my heart, this fic brought me back. I remember now...I remember how crazy and fun things used to be...and I remember better times with my cousin and my best friend when they still lived. The very memories that I tried to dig out from my mind, but my pain and guilt and sadness clutched them too tightly. This fic drew them out, and I thank you heartily. You've woken up a part inside of me that has been asleep for so long...a part that echoes the sunlight that is Naruto's character. I thank you so much. I await with all others for the next chapter with anticipation and eagerness. I also hope that, in any chaos that you may have in your life as well, the writing of the fic brings you to better times as well. :3

-The Update Monster

Oh my god... You completely tore my heart out with this fic. And the end of this last chapter... I already wanted to cry, halfway through, but at the end, it was just... *headdesk* Wow. Just wow.

You completely and utterly have a way with words. I can't quite place what it is, but I love it... Everything flows so well. You give vivid descriptions without being too flowery, and your dialogue makes me envious. *sucks at writing dialogue* And your characters are so ALIVE - I felt like you could have been talking about people at my school. (In fact, at times, I was even thinking, 'hey, that sounds a lot like my campus...' Heh.) I think my favorite thing must be the fact that I feel completely involved with the story. Like - maybe it's because I'm overly emotional, but in this chapter when you were talking about the pain in Naruto's chest, I was like, 'I feel it too!' ;_;

It's taken me a few days to read the whole thing, but it was very much worth it. Extreme kudos to you. ^__^

(But ugh, I do not have a good feeling about the next chapter... I dunno, my head hurts trying to think about it. *waits in suspense - but patiently, becuase she knows rl = arghbrainexplosions* XD)

Oh, shit. O.o You'se ALL dead men, boys. Not even the "I was weak, desperate, and in love" excuse is going to help this one. At the very least, all three are going to get the verbal beating of their lives. However, I would very much like to see Naruto realize WHY Sasuke called him a slut. He's not completely innocent in this, though I doubt they'd let him get away with thinking so.

Excellent chapter; I was TOTALLY not expecting what you revealed in that flashback! O.o Sasuke trying to commit ritual suicide... wow. Though, it's not like incanon where he can become a awesome ninja to try and hunt Itachi down. He has no outlet for his grief and loneliness until Naruto comes in and becomes his friend.

Sasuke's realization of his unconscious obsession made me giggle. ^.^ Silly Uchiha.

In the end... damn you and your evil cliff hangers! At least it's almost over. That makesme both sad and happy. Happy to know that they torture will be at an end, sad to see such and awesome story come to a close. It's been a wonderful rollercoaster ride. ^_^

bloody fantastic fic! HELL! when are those two gonna get together? bloody damn frustating i tell u! dammit. please continue ^_^
