Thank you. I, as you know, had my flash drive crash not long before our gifts were due, losing my original, almost complete, gift fic. Nothing was recoverable from it and I lost not only that, but most of the stuff I had written for the preceeding 8 months. I cried. Hard. believe me.
So, I had to start from scratch on my gift fic and wrote, edited and had this beta'd in 9-10 days. I did not want it to end where it did, but it kind of took on a life and direction of it's own...and then I ran out of time. I couldn't end it on a happy note without doing a major rewrite and the only endings that I could come up with felt forced and unnatural.
I felt horrible for ending it here. These were supposed to be finished fics, and personally, I didn't want to submit anything that left ANY room for continuation. At. All. But things don't always work out how you want. I do know where this story would have gone if I'd had more time, and I have continued working on it whenever I can find time. I just couldn't get it out of my head.
I owe everyone a proper ending, whether HEA or not, so I will finish this story. That or have everyone hate me. I really, really did not want it to end here. Really, really sorry, but the original prompter did say that they enjoyed angst.
