MGirl you too the words right out of my mouth....
Sabine, after i read the new chapter and had to rush off i was thinking about how very appropriate it is for CM to end there...it's just like if i look back over my life there are "chapters" or "eras", you know? Michael and Sabah are entering a new phase of their lives together and I'm sooo excited!!! Bring it on!!
thank you for all you have given us....from the bottom of my heart.
What a relief.
I was entering into a state of mind where I knew exactly what the wild animals in Africa go through when the last water hole has dried up during the dry season.
I am glad I do no have to eat dust after all. Bad Boy Mike sounds much better than dust and desperation.
Sabine I'm so relieved, is this an entirely new story?
Does this take off when Cowboy Mike ended,?
I don't eny you having to write this new series, so much happens to Michael, and from here on after the bad tour most of it is tragic, this is a time when I wish the story wasn't so ccurate with his life because it just hurts me.
I don't want to think about that now, for now I'm really excited for Bad Boy Mike
OMG, Enola, that made me laugh!!!!
Now now you addicts better make with the comments -- all of this OMG, I can't believe it's over, ach, well, is not cutting it for me!
I need my comments like you need your fix!
Hmm, Colette let's see:
No, it's a sequel silly!
I don't know. I haven't written it yet!
Yes, there's a lot of sadness, but I think when you look at life and its events, if you change your perspective, it can be much less tragic but we'll see -- I don't want to think aobut it either.
Like I alwyas say, I let the story to just come to me.
@Elona
you described what I was feeling perfectly
EnolaLee i love how you phrased that - the animals and the water hole - i felt the same!!
i'm so happy there is gunna be a sequel - i feel like all is not lost
oooh i just noticed as i type Michael is starring at me with his big beautiful eyes and black curls..... **melts**
me and my friend found CCC a few months ago, and after stumbling across one chapter... i believe it was the one where Michael and Sabbah are returning from the Grammy's and shes angry at him and wont sit next to him because "his jacket is all itchy" - i read that chapter, fell in love then started from the begining! i check this site everyday for updates and new chapters!! my friend and i read this religiously now
i still think they need to have a baby.... Sabah miscarried before and i think they deserve a baby even more!
thankyou for the wonderfull gettaway moments - but you'll be the first person i blame if i fail my A-levels (i spent waaaay to many nights reading this when i shoulda been revising
)
Ehem, excuse me Ms. Vixen:
"READER BEWARE!!!! CobraCrackCentral® is not liable for any failed tests, lost jobs or broken relationships. "
Okay, okay Sabine!
Just give the poor addicts a chance to get back on their feet. I think we are all suffering from shellshock right now. At least I am...
I said give me my comment!!!!
You're excused, Enola, cause you had that little lovers tryst with that Bumblebee this morning
Oh thank GOD!
Girl, you just don't know. I realize this story is 'your' baby, but I swear I felt like someone had just died!
And I didn't want to be all pouty and whiny, but I felt a tantrum coming on. I still haven't re-read the latest/last installment to leave a proper reply, but I promise I will. I loved it, of course as I've loved all the chapters, but I still need a moment. I'm still a little emotional over it. Whew...
I think sometimes we forget - or I forget - that you 'do' have a life outside of this and it's probably selfish to expect you write continuously nonstop. Nevertheless, you have a WONDERFUL talent, and I'm very, very glad you decided to share it.
yup i read that a while back and i took the risk, but it IS true! hehe! the power of CCC
like EnolaLee said - i am a tad shellshocked! a lot of people say they scrolled to the end and saw the "THE END" before reading it, but i didn't - in fact i didn't see the "THE END" untill i read the comments!!
i was just totally not expecting that
Awwweee *tears* Thanks you Ladake.
I actually wasn't going to say anything for a while, but the sound of addicts clamoring at my door, banging and crying and screaming -- well I just couldn't take it!!!!!!
AHAH !! THIS IS GOOD NEWS !! SORRY HAVE TO SHOUT IT OUT !!!
Better call an ambulance already because I'm absolutely over the top in love with Michael in his BAD era !!
BAD = FAINT to me !! LOL
*dancing around the room with my kitty kat !!!*
Thank you Sabine !!
You know I like reading books, paper books and not on the computer, because when you get to the end, and the writer hasn't wrapped the story up, you start to panic like OMG, OMG, OMG, what's going to happen, there's only like ten pages left!
To me that's a lot of fun!!!!
So Vixen, I don't envy you your shock when you realized that was it for COWBOY MIKE!!!!!
That's cuz you shocked the hell outta everybody! lol
You just can't do that to a junky. We're already high strung and twitchy as it is.
lol Sabine i always get all nervous and twitchy in the last few pages of a book - its so exciting but totaly nerv wracking at the same time!!
yep Ladake i agree we are highly strung twitchy addicts :')
wait i just realised - i feel the same now that i did all the way back in 2004 but i was just 11 years old, when i watched the final episode of Friends.
the scene where Rachel is on the plane and Ross goes home and checks his messages, and shes called him to leave a message then realises that she really does love him and can't go to Paris, before the phone goes dead and he's shouting "did she get off the plane did she get off the plane?!" then miraculously there she is, standing at the door and says "i got off the plane" :')
the ending of Cowboy Mike reminded me of that! when hes sitting there on the plane wishing Sabah was with him, and then as if by magic there she is!
im so sad but so happy at the same time!
Ladake! You don't know the mental picture you're giving me. Women itching and scratching outside the doors of CCC, in their bathrobes with their hair sticking up or all tangled and matted!!!!!!!!!!
I was truly starting to wallow. I got so into this story that it had become apart of my life. apart of my daily routine to check if you updated anything or to read everyones comments i hac CCC bookmarked so its like the first thing i go on every morning. I dont know why, but i was extra anticipating that last chapter and when i came on this morning and saw that it was finally here. lol. i locked myself in a room so i would have uninteruppted reading. in absolute silence. and when i was reading it i got anxious, it felt like it was ending, just the way you writing everything lol, like it sounded like the end and when i finally got there. geez.. i felt hurt, like someone was leaving me and i couldnt stop them (i'm really dramatic, i know)
I haven't re-read or commented, because i need some time to morn. lol i will thought. I've never been a super long commenter.. but i'll make it happen. i promise.
Thank you so much for a wonderful story and I'm SOOO SO SO SO SO SOOOOOO happy that there will be a sequel. it was like a weight lifted off my chest.
You know Alisha, I was worried about you! I was hoping you'd come back. Wow, I could see you in your room, reading and being so anxious. I think, if you're a big reader like I am, you can kinda tell when a story is ending so it doesn't surprise me that you felt that way.
Sorry to torture you!!!!! But I love that everyone is so into the story.
Now that you've promised, I can't wait to read the comment 'kay!!!
Oh, shoot!!! I just realized that after posting my comment in the "To me, Cowboy Mike is..." box that I forgot to give it it's 5 gold stars!!! DOH!!!
But to be honest, there aren't enough stars in the universe to give this story the proper rating it deserves. I mean that with all my heart.
Thank you Frodes, you're making me cry over here!
*whispers* You can still go back and rate it!
Can you believe I never watched Friends? It's one of the sitcoms I never got into. But don't you love how great stories always have the element of suspense -- keep you waiting until the very end. It's like even though we KNOW, we KNOW they have to end up together -- I mean the writer is not crazy right? To split them apart? That would just be cruel!
So we wait, because we need to read it/see it for ourselves.
Don't be sad! (But I get you!) It's a wonderful compliment that this story reminds you of another story that touched you and that you hold in a special place in your heart. Thanks Vixen!
Sabine, I really tried not to comment here until I've commented on the latest chapter of CW which is finally here!
But I saw my name up there and then read your explanation of why you had to let this story end where it did and considering all we've talked about in the last few days it totally makes sense to me why this is the The (happy) End and why something new, someting different has to start now.
For a moment there I thought you had enough of Michael and Sabah, at least for now. This just shows you how wrong a girl can be.
But I hope Michael and Saniia will write you a card or something to finally let you know where they are, we haven't heard from them in quite a while and I'm starting to fee a little worried. 
I'm pretty busy at the moment, until Wednesday evening I should be doing nothing but university stuff, that's why you didn't hear from me on the Debbie thread anymore and that's also why I haven't written a comment for Got To Be There yet, I want to take my time to do that. I read the chapter once and right up until the last lines I believed that Michael was going to be alone on tour so I was happy and relieved that Sabah did join him after all. I have to let the rest simmer a bit more but you will hear from me!
Love,
Cherry
Oh, that's CM of course and not CW. Wtf? LOL
Oh and I actually wanted to say that I feel kind of honored that my name is up there although that's probably stupid and your mentioning it doesn't mean that I should feel that way. Still, it's kind of nice.
Phew! 4abine u scared the daylights out of me! I thought Mike and Sabah were done but then, I got to thinking to myself and I was like, "How could it be over?" I want to see Mike and Sabah with big pretty babies and the actual wedding! Just me thinkin about it gets me so excited! I hope that the story stays away frm the allegations and all that other negativity. I do understand Sabine that if watever ur heart comes up with than thats how the story will go, but it would be nice to avoid that neagative stuff and have Sabah and Mike live sort of a normal life although it might not happen. Sabine i really have enjoyed this saga. Thank you very much and keep up the great work! *Smooches*
you never watched Friends? wow i dont know anyone whos never watched it :L but yeah its really close to my heart - i have seen that final episode enough times to know it word for word but i still find myself pershed on the edge of the seat willing them to get back together!
i think this chapter could be the same - i record i could read it 100 times and still be holding my breath in the last few paragraphs
i still can't get over the fact that it was the last paragraph.... but... theres a bright shiney warm light at the end of the tunnel with the prospect of a new sequal! i'm gunna listen to MJ on my ipod now - i love listening to him in my sleep....
thanks again for the laughs and smiles and tears i experienced throughout this story
SABINE IM SO SORRY I SPELLED UR NAME ALL WRONG LOL!
*************EXHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEE*************** holly molly macarolli. I was about to just go into panic mode O_o. When you said CM was over and I saw that THE END. It hit me that I was going to miss it so much I thought I would cry . Like those moments in life where you're starting a new chapter in your life and ending the old one....its bittersweet and all tears. I just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to write this story because I've cried laughed and gotten upset, It was a rollercoaster ride and just as thrilling. I simply love it Sabine you're an amazing writer. Never stop.
I'm still shocked at how I reacted when I found out it was the end. I was like, WHY SABINE WHYYYY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME!!!!!
You dont even understand how I felt when I saw the end.....I need to lie down lol....it was like the eye of the storm on the peak of erupting but then getting pulled back. My head spinned from all that emotion. O_o
I honestly laughed super hard when Michael called Sabah fat lol...like that was his attempt at an insult lol. And Sabah dreaming about Strawberries is hilarious and I so loled when she said she wasnt sharing. I have even come to adore Kit and Jonathan, everyone feels so real and they interact like how real friends do. :) The 2 entirely different conversations Sabah and that old nurse were having had me cracking up lol, the poor nurse had no idea. My heart went to Michael when he met Kit's father :(. It was so heartwarming the whole family thing. In that circus Michael was in before boarding the plane, you could really feel how lonely he was despite having the world all around him. I really felt for Michael at the end of the story but you made it all so much better ugh it was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!! <3
I wish it had truly been this way. Thank you for the escape<3
Words can't descrbine how I'm excited for BBM :) I can see the hairripping from all the way over here when it comes to Tatiana
Here's the scene backstage at the concert
The curly mess of hair at the bottom belongs to Tatiana ( I'm so dedicated to writing this comment I just typed out that whole stupid link above because it won't let me paste. IE or firefox)
I hope in this alternative universive Michael finds happiness :)
Thanks SABINE<3!!!!!
O_O I wrote all that...lol I never do that, I guess I got carried away. :)
If the link to the picture didn't work here it is again :)
(it worked, Summertime and you're not stupid! Live and learn
~ Sabine )
I'm so stupid I could've just pressed CTRL V
SABINE YOU'RE A ONE INA MILLION WRITER WITH ENORMOUS TALENT
THANKS FOR SHARING IT WITH ME
I LOOK FORWARD TO ALL YOUR OTHER STORIES YOU GOT COOKING
i'm a book junkie. i read like its my job. there really isnt anything better than a really good book, they can take you absolutley anywhere. which is of course why i fell in love with this story even though its on my computer. like you guys were saying i like having the paper back and seeing how the end of the book and knowing its ending and wondering how. its the same thing with movies on tv. you go in the guide and see there's only 20 minuets left but you dont know whats gonna happen.
and first thing in the morning, when my head is clear. lol i'm all yours
Neicy, imagine little Micah
:kissing: (Michael + Sabah ) don't get upset if I steal the name:
Oh my goodness
Awww she has Sabah's nose.
Vixen, yeah, I never sat and watch one episode of Friends! What happened is by the time it became so popular, I had misses so much and I hate watching things from the middle. What I always ended up doing is getting hooked when it comes on syndication and watching it all then. So maybe one day when I'm either sick or not doing anything (which is so rare!) But that's how I caught most of Tyra's show -- about the models -- Americas Next Top Model - I just watched the marathon for two days, back to back. It's kinda fun that way.

Foreverinmyheart, no, no, don't cry!!!!! Unless it's happy tears.

Alisha, you know just knowing you love to read makes your observations so much more meaningful to me, because I know you have read all types of stories and that you have a real reference to compare this story too! So thanks again, and yeah, it's true. I used to watch Lost and be like, OMG, there's only 10 more minutes and I'm still LOST!!!!
______________________
Hey Cherry, I was wondering what happened to you! Well, you know I think we were having a pretty heavy conversation, and I always remember and relfect on important conversations that I have. So I thought at the time, wow, this is interesting because I knew I was going to put up the last chapter. You know I knew the story was going to end several weeks ago, but I just didn't know what happened in between! So I was waiting for all of the other stuff to come to me. But yes, to make Michael and Sabah have a happy ending -- to allow them to have their happy ending, I had to end CM here but I've seen so much of Bad Boy Mike's story, I will definitely write more.
Now why would you think I'd get tired of Sabah and Michael, OMG, I love them together, and well, Michael and Saniia -- they had to wait for this CM ending to be born, so that's really why I haven't been in touch with them. But I'll write them a post card TODAY!
Wow, are you serious?
Of course while I'm writing, I'm purposely trying to write it in a way that it's not so obvious what's going to happen, 'cause I hate that, but you never know if it's working!!!! So thanks for telling me that! I can't wait to hear more. Yeah, get that university stuff out of the way so you can come on back to what's really important in life!

Ladake, I don't plan to ignore any of the negativity that Michael had in his life, but I'm sure not going to dwell on it. The story is about Michael and Sabah and giving him a chance at a normal life with a family and happiness, so the focus won't be on all the people trying to rob him of that. They might make cameo appearances but they are not the stars of THIS story.
And you know, you're right, Micah does have Sabah's nose!
OMG, look at all that Summertime wrote! YAY! I've got to shout out the people who hardly ever comment and who never write a lot when they feel moved to give me a comment and whats more make it a long one.
Oh my goodness pardon me while I crack up at that pic you put up. Is that SABAH in those hot fish net stockings???? Poor Tatitana, she really should watch wear she puts her mouth. I'm very interested to see how that's going to play out between Michael and Sabah after the whole Colin incident!
Any thoughts anyone?
I love how you said, why are you doing this to ME Sabine, when you read THE END! Like it was personal!
That just shows me how much into the story you were! I love it! But Summertime, I think you understand WHY it had to end here! It had to, you know that!
I love all of your observations! You know it comes to me to include lines, little side stories and I never know how it reads to the viewer on a whole but it seems to work which is great (it works in my head
)
Like what you said about feeling Michael's loneliness despite everything going on around him -- that's so important and I'm so glad I was able to capture that! Thanks Summertime for your super long comment!!!!!
Honestly the funniest part to me in this chapter was Jonathan and Sabah -- I really don't know why they were at each other's throats!
I think it had something to do with his dad selling Michael that gallery!
well, well... i knew it...i don´t know why but being my only brain´s cell outside of the game by the heat, intuition is the best way to move myself
well, all the relationships have their phases...this cycle is closed and the beginning of a new one is coming...Sabine; sometimes i imagine you like you were cooking a sweet sponge cake, doing the mass knowing what ingredients are but not knowing how it will taste at the end...now you´re doing the mass and preparing the oven, right???
Thank goodness for that, for not dwelling that is. Those moments make me cringe internally. Some of them though, I may not be able to read.
Awww, well, I haven't even written it yet, but I hope you'll read everything, even the sad parts, because it will make the happy parts that much more meaningful!
Irune: this cycle is closed and the beginning of a new one is coming…Sabine; sometimes i imagine you like you were cooking a sweet sponge cake, doing the mass knowing what ingredients are but not knowing how it will taste at the end
I never knew how anything would come out!!!!
Hey, where did Flufpuddel go?
Hey, in case you don't know there's a site cataloging the women MJs been involved with over the years especially on the cusp of the 80s and 90s. It seems he was with a whole bunch. Maybe you could write it into the story as a way of him dealing with losing Sabah [however that ends up happening].
EDITED: ooooh, girl, you KNOW I had to edit your comment ~ Sabine
Hay JJazzii, so girl like I said, you KNOW I had to edit your comment!
If you've read anything I've written about Michael, you shoulda seen that coming!
No. 1, I don't do Michael was with a whole bunch of women --
First of all, 'cause if he was, that's his business.
Second of all, I don't believe that.
I know all about LA and the "list" they have of women -- I think, with all due respect, it's PURE UNADULTURATED SPECULATION, and not flattering speculation either.
It always seems as if the conclusion is OOOOoooo, that Michael, he was such a dog, and he had us all fooled. Seems as if any woman that Michael took a picture with or was seen with on more than one occasion becomes a prospect for having been his lover! I think it makes Micheal seem like a dog in heat
Last but not least, advertising another person's blog here
Shamone now!!!!
Peace!!!!
Losing Sabah???
Come on now, girlie. There is no such thing.
Ladake, I hear ya girl, where is Sabah going? No where!!!!
Wow she is sooooo gorgeous Sabine!! So are you throwing out hints that Michael and Sabah are gonna have a baby girl ? I'm so excited LOL!!!! It would be so surreal to have a scene where Sabah gives birth to baby Micah. That would be so emotional in a good way!:smile:
Sabine: "I don’t plan to ignore any of the negativity that Michael had in his life, but I’m sure not going to dwell on it. The story is about Michael and Sabah and giving him a chance at a normal life with a family and happiness, so the focus won’t be on all the people trying to rob him of that. They might make cameo appearances but they are not the stars of THIS story."
Sabine I'm so glad that you made this comment. I was afraid that we would have to face the negativity of the situations that happened later on in Mike's life. I'm so glad we can enjoy reading some happiness for a change.(through your wonderful stories of course)
Hey Neicy! Well, I have to say, I don't plan on ignoring the negativity either -- I mean that to me would make the story unrealistic!!!!
But let's talk about cute little Micah! Isn't she adorable!!!! Am I trying to tell you something?
Noooooo -- it's just that that little girl looks like she COULD be Micheal's daughter!!!! Dontcha think?
I am sad about Cowboy Mike and Sabah but whenever one door closes another opens. i think I may have said this before. Cowboy MJ was in a way painful in their realism. I think I have made no secret that Tame the Wild Cobra has been my favorite because it had that hint of reality with all the escapism and Michael that I needed. Oh! and the sexual tension was enough keep this addict sprung. I know that just the fact that Bad Boy Mike is coming from you it will be delicious. How will Sabah and Mike deal with Tatiania? Or even Sheryl Crow. Will we get to see him jiggle out of his body suit? How will Sabah handle Bubbles, Frank and the always envious Karen. Will Debbie make an a appearance to help with his skin problems? The possibilities are as endless as your talent allows. I wait with baited breath to revel in this next step
