Oh, I could've melted over the scene between Donna and Peter. He showed her the real beauty of the sonnets, and I think he found her wanting to learn endearing. Methinks they'll be sharing a bed a lot more often. ;D
Sorry for the lack of comments. I was in the midst of July's Camp NaNo, and then I had a birthday present for someone to finish. I'll start posting sometime after Midnight tonight, or sometime tomorrow. It's the follow-up to a story I'm finishing posting tonight. But don't read it if you're not in a good place in your writing. Tonight's completion is the second story in a series that will take me years to complete. *sighs*
Anyway, almost caught up on my commenting. :)

Peter finding Donna with a book reminds me about that book she found behind the cushions a chapter or two back?
Sharing a bed with someone was difficult for some people, he reckoned, especially if they were accustomed to sleeping alone, but not for him. Peter had been surprised at how easily he'd been able to fall asleep since they'd been together, even in her unfamiliar bedroom. In her arms, all the chaos and cacophony of the day fell away: in her bed, the clamor of his thoughts stilled and Peter found blessed peace.This bit made me cry a bit (probably a good thing as I've got lots of emotions pent up but there's never a really good time to ponder what-ifs and might-have-beens). I've never shared a bed that way, but sometimes wonder--as I do with almost everything else about romantic or sexual relationships--what it's like to have someone else at night and not be alone with thoughts of the day or tomorrow or whatever ( ... )
