Absolutely astounded... Blown away. Received the best feedback on any writing piece I've ever done and I honestly have no words to express how good it feels to see the work pay off.

Ohh, well I was gonna look more into it tonight after work, I'm on my phone now. However, I see what you mean. They'd likely go to the University to see it, because it's such an old timey place and I reckon that James's family would take them into the city (NYC) to see it. Buddy system and all that though.
Much like this last scene, it's about seeing things together and experiencing general new things. But if he comes home and she couldn't go, then maybe we make it a point for her to go on the next one. ^^
Oh no! :p Definitely not. And also, however you want to timeskip is fine. We can jump ahead to her telling him she can't go, her telling him she *can* go, them being on a plane for the trip, them arriving, or anything, really... Heck, if she can't go, we can skip to him and his family getting *back* from the trip. ^^
He felt her hand take hold of his once again and the pressure of the moment was instantly lifted with her four-word response. He smiled and looked at her, his eyes glinting with warmth and excitement. Sharing like this was new... But it was also really uplifting, despite the anxiety it had initially wrought. She loved him too; the relief such a thought could bring was immense. He tilted his head curiously, "Impede our trip how?" He asked, laughing slightly, "It isn't like anything has changed to anybody else, we've just... said it now, right? It feels really nice, but I don't know if it really affects other people so much. If anything, it'd make it better," He pointed out, taking a moment to realize what she had exactly said. Instead of pointing it out, he smiled and listened to her give a small laugh. She was so cute, how was he so lucky? He kissed her, turning as he placed his free hand on her knee, simply savoring the few seconds that he had right there. A dismal thought occurred to him in that moment: this moment will never happen again. He may feel this way for a long time and he was sure they'd enjoy countless other 'adventures' together, but... right here, right now... He could never tell her he loved her for the first time again.

After reluctantly pulling away, he shrugged, "I know, but I thought that you'd want Valentine's to be a million times better because of it." He didn't want to leave, but after a few more moments, he squeezed her hand and stood up, ushering her with him. "Come on, it's starting to get cold and if you get sick, we'll lose our Valentine's Week," He said with a small smirk. "Besides, we've been out here longer than I thought, the sun's already starting to go down." He lifted his hand and brushed a loose strand of hair behind her ear, kissing her lips once again. They walked as closely as they could to get out of the underground, which was quickly growing colder, especially with the weather being so unpredictable. As they rode home, there wasn't quite so much talking, but that was okay; James really just enjoyed being around her, doing just about anything. Once they got back to her house, he pushed his kickstand to the ground and dismounted, walking with her up the driveway.

"I had a really good night... I'm glad we went out like that, I was so confused at first..." He admitted, rubbing the back of his neck. "Sleep well tonight, okay Sashie?" He urged with a smile. Hesitating again, as he was still unused to the way the words felt rolling off his tongue, "And I... uhh... I love you," He said again, still testing out the phrase. He smiled, loving the way it made him feel to say it. "Good night," He finally finished before getting back on his bike and starting off for home, really not excited to face his mother's interrogation on him talkin to Sashie again.
Yeah XD I can't hear Riptide now without thinking of these two dancing and having their first kiss ;w;
Well you're doing very well ^^
It kept its realism too, I think. Or rather consistency in character. I'll try to get a reply in after work tonight. :)
It was excellent
These two are adorable. XD
Ohh no! Nothing like that. To dispel your apprehension, the biggest event is likely to be his parents' divorce or his brother's military enlistment. Like I said, nothing to make him break, but the kind of thing that makes an origin story/history for James more... Real, I guess. Like things happen and we all move on, things to make him grow up.
Really, it's just one thing that's kinda big, depending on perspective, and apart from that I've got very little planned :p we aren't going to be turning this into an "Aww, James is a poor, beaten down, needs-pity and saving" kind of thing at all, I can guarantee that.
