This was very sweet! I loved the Ben/Tom friendship (something that I'm thrilled the show seems to be exploring) as well as the appearance by Mark. Cute story! Thanks for sharing. :)

Oh wow, I was grinning like Leslie on a Sweetums high the entire time I was reading this! Loved Tom being Ben's wing man, and Mark stopping by and even the original character was lovely.

You always know how to do it~ The build up in this was really sweet, and I'm so completely in love with Ben and Tom's relationship and really can see this happening in the show, and I've loved the fic that's explored it. This has done it so well. Tom's shown before that he often DOES have Leslie's happiness in mind, and he IS starting to care about Ben, so I do love that whole direction. And I liked Leslie and Ann's conversation, and really just everything in general. I sure miss Mark, and this was a nice little way to bring him back and show how much he's grown and wants to see Leslie happy. And the ending was very sweet and not overdone, which I loved. I liked all of it very much, as always.

I always love your comments on my fics; they make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside! I really want Leslie and Ron to talk about Ben, but I'd also love to see her talk to Tom about it too, seeing as Tom and Ben are becoming friends.

Anyway, thanks so much again for the nice words! I really appreciate it!
