Avoiding my work this morning has paid off for me in spades! I was so pleased to find this! I'm so pleased that you've written another Lewis fic! I'm pleased that you found a little time to write anything at all - I know how busy you are.

This was gorgeous. There were little touches throughout where their voices rang so true ("Even I know that one" especially made me smile - it can just hear Robbie's tone in that: self-deprecating, a little sarcastic but with real humor - just perfect). I always suspected that Lewis would take things as they come to him and not have any big freak-out about their first time. And Hathaway - you've given us a perfect idea of his state of mind without him having to say much of anything. I love his mix of passion and uncertainty.

This is so lovely and brilliant. Not that I'm surprised when it comes from you, my dear! You have made my day.

[garonne]

Haha, always happy to help you skive off work ;) I feel like I could write thousands of words about this pair! Just wish I had thousands of hours...

Yeah, I really don't see Lewis freaking out. Maybe being a little surprised at himself, certainly, but still taking things in his stride. He is lovely to write about.

So, thank you! I'm so happy to hear you like this.

YAAAAAAAAY!!!

I know you don't have thousands of hours, but I'm just excited to hear that you're inspired. My brain has been working overtime as well, just to have time to think about where I want to take these two next...

Yay, lovely!

[garonne]

Thank you!

Aww! I love relationship-beginning stories, and this is just lovely :) And Robbie kissed James first! (That is, if I understand the opening section correctly).

Great dialogue, as well, with very in-character banter and teasing, as well as saying what they mean by not saying what they mean :)

[garonne]

Yeah, Robbie made the first move ;) I love to think of him surprising Hathaway!

saying what they mean by not saying what they mean
Really happy to hear that. It's what I was aiming for.

Thank you!
