Great update

I read and reread the ending of the chapter so much it's not funny.  I found it highly arousing despite the fact the scene is far more sweet than arousing.  But it's the expression of love.  So very little words but it's the actions of the players.  Instead of running onto home, Sasha knows she has someone she can fall back on.  Instead of running in tears she went to safety of where she feels home is now.   In the case of Dmitri, no need for words, he's like a 24hr Pharmacy, at your service any time you need him, no questions asked.   Additionally, although they haven't been dating that long it seems Dmitri is highly attuned to Sasha's feelings.  He seems to know that it's answers later and comfort now.  I like that.  Now, I'm just thinking out loud and I so don't know the characters as well as you do; but why do I get the feeling that Sasha won't share with him what happened.   Just because of the break down before she might feel she's showing too much of her self and and her weaknesses and maybe insecurities.  I don't think she'd want him to have a negative impression of her..."ie Black girl with problems...former crack addict mum so why not."  By the way what is up with the crack addict thing, it seems so cliche.  Was that Teagan hyperbolizing Sasha's real story.   Many mothers of Color have their daughters (child or children) taken away and lost in the system.  That's actually more so a problem than it is having a crack addict parent.  

Anyway I figured this would call for a Dina/Dmitri moment.   I could see her raging about that.   Unless of course Dina told Slade who told Dmitri, or Dina told Slade to call Dmitri or Dmitri asked Slade to call Dina or Dmitri just went to the Diner to talk to Dina.   Anyway tons of scenarios for that one.  Just interesting.  By the way the rewrite makes more sense.   I can't wait for more and more touchy feely moments between Sasha and Dmitri.  Does Dmitri have family?  Does Slade?  Does Dina?  Sorry...just wondering.  I'm on the side of him having family to have something Sasha can be adopted into. :)

I wished she would have told Faye off for once and for all...Jaelynn too. Dina is such a cool chick; I can see that she and Sasha will become close over time.  

Regarding the changes to Chapter 6, I still think it ended sweetly. I love this nurturing side of Dmitri...he's finally giving into emotion for the first time in his life...and the way you wrote him in these last few chapters...I just know he's going to fall...hard...if he hasn't already.

This was good! It was a big step for Sasha. I hope she builds up more confidence and strength as time goes by, but this was an excellent start for her. With her feelings of abandonment, none of this is easy, but I think she just might get there. 

And I'm glad Teagan turned out to be a better friend than I first thought.

Dina is going to be a good friend to Sasha as well. 

Nice!

Sasha has a lot of issues but getting rid of those two so called friends would be great for her. Dmitri is doing much better and for so reason,I have always voted for the under dog as long as he or she could change...or capable of change 

I loved this chapter. Way to stand up for yourself Sasha. Love Dimitri for not taking advantage. 

those are some insecure, jealous-hating biotches!  Dina fat!? What! Dina is a beautiful woman with model-material written all over her and they know it!

I kept hoping/wishing/praying that Dmitri and Slade would show up and make FOOLS of those wenches by dissing them and fawning all over their women! Dang! Oh well, maybe next time. :)

Sasha went straight to her man for comfort, and support, and understanding. He was there for her without the silly twenty-one questions. It's nice when you connect with someone so well that words aren't necessary, they just know what you need and provide it...and she got it in spades! loved that scene.

Nice chapter, looking forward to the next

Dmitri+Sasha=Dmisha or Dmitra

Loving the new couple!

Way to go Dimitri

I hope Dina does knock her out.. or better yet see's her out with Slade that would make her mad!

Sasha is getting better at not allowing everyone to control her. I think she did the right thing going to his place after that happened and not telling Dina what she was doing. A+++++

I like the re-write better then the original..:)

thanks for the update!! i really feel like faye shoulda been knocked the f**k out!!!!!!!!sooo glad dina was there to stick up for her.

 im really glad both relationships are progressing wonderfully!! i really hope you dedicate a whole chapter to both of their first time for real!!!! cant wait for that!! im pleased to see that dmitri seems to be taking slades advice and trying a little tenderness as my boy otis would say. more please!!!!!!!!!!

Ahh he behaved like a gentleman,  I'm glad she getting rid of baggage that's holding her back meaning Faith and Jaelynn

I am really starting to love Dimitri he us really showing that he is trying to build a relationship with Sasha and I'm loving Dina as well she is just what Sasha needs to build up her confidence. Loving the story please update regularly!!!!!!
