I continue to be very flattered that you like my stories, since yours rock so much and in a hard, powerful way that is entirely unlike my fluffy stuff. Was this chapter short? They average around seven to ten pages, with a total of 11 parts, which seemed about right to me. And I'm glad it flew by easily (flew, haha, because I am five years old that way), thank you!

Ryan/Colin banter is the best thing ever. That, and Ryan's tendency to touch Colin whenever they're within five feet of each other. They're like magnets. And cute is a great thing to say! For my stories, anyway, cute is often a primary goal. Along with sweet and awwwwwww inducing.
