Review:Sarah_Bee says:
Susan, i am nearly in tears.

This was the best one shot you've written yet. I am speechless. I don't know what to say. It was gorgeous, flawless and so beautiful my mind cannot find the right words to say how much I loved it.

I love your writing and your style. you have a very unique voice and I love your descriptions. They just flow off the page (or screen in this case). I'm still speechless, sitting in my house and in complete awe, my jaw dropped, my eyes widened from how amazing it was to read this.

I went into this fic a little skeptical. I don't particularly like Teddy/Rose fics but I thought I'd give yours a chance and I'm extremely glad I did. You really tore at my heart strings with these lines:

"When they leave at last, it is together, not running, and not disturbing the scene as they pass. No splattering drops attempt to break from gravity. No roses shuddering against their thorns, indignant at the constant wet. No shattered hearts making their escape, running, running, flying from the memories that haunt and the touch that lingers.
There is a new touch now, a new memory made. It does not fall like the rain. It is lasting, enduring.
It is forever."

the end was perfectly done. I'm trying desperately to find a way to tell you how much I love this fic! You inspire me so much! :)

Author's Response: o_O Wow, really?! I didn't know it would be a sad story - it's supposed to be a happy story! Unless it's so happy that it made you cry? :P

Anyhow, thank you very much! I'm blown away by your response to this story. Even though I knew that the story had a lot of poetic qualities and was romantic, it's amazing that it turned out so well, especially to the extent of being beautiful. It's something I didn't expect to hear, but I love it! :D I wanted the story to really have flow to it - the rain imagery certainly helped there - but I was worried that there was too much going on with the flowers and the rain imagery conflicting. So at least the story didn't turn out to be an utter mess. XD

Come to think of it, I don't know why exactly I like Teddy/Rose as a ship. Perhaps because it's anything other than Scorose, which seems to have been done in every way imaginable. Teddy/Rose can have an interesting dynamic to it, one that I enjoy exploring. It's fantastic that you were able to get into their characters here, though in all reality, it doesn't matter who they are in the confines of this story - they really could be anyone.

So the ending wasn't too mushy? That "it is forever" line even made me wince, but it is suitably romantic. :P But with everything up to that line, I'm very pleased that it was a moving passage - I loved the idea of bringing everything back to the beginning, in a cycle of sorts.

Thank you again for the review, Sarah! I look forward to what you have to say in each review. ^_^
