OMG, I haven't read yet, but I have to tell you how much I love this story and how much I've been looking forward to this next installment. I've re-read the entire story twice, and debated over and over to myself how rude it would be to email you and inquire about an ETA for more.

Thank you, thank you...off to read now!

Hope this chapter lives up to such enthusiastic feedback. And sure you can ask when I think I'll post the next part. My good friend beta's for me, and partly it depends on how much stuff is going on with her. I have finished Ball and Chain,(rough draft) and started Comes a Time, the last arc. I've got 10,000 words for the first chapter and I've started on the second one,(just a thousand). I appreciate the patience you guys have shown.

Thanks for reading, and commenting,

Laurie

What a lovely loving gentle story! I'm so happy to see more in this universe

It's about time that they start to feel connected again.

I'm pleased that you liked it.

Yeah... Jim gets it right - I know he can, the dumb bastard. (Which I can say to you because you know I love him really, right? *g*)

[laurie_ky]

So he's earning his way off your shit list, finally? He can be on the thick side, but we do love him, faults and all.

Thanks for reading and commenting,

Awww, that was a sweet interlude. Overall it has a peaceful vibe about it. And it's so nice to see the committmemt to each other resurface.

I'm still looking forward to Blair dealing with his childhood abuse.

Thank you so much for continuing this.

I'm glad that the peacefulness of the cabin, and the hot tub and winding down into sleep came across as relaxing for them. They've made the decision, both of them, to be lovers so that stress of should we do it or not, especially for Blair, is gone.

Blair telling Jim about his childhood will be coming up in Ball and Chain.

Thanks again, can't say it enough times, for reading and commenting.

I was wondering when we might see an update to this, so this was very welcome. It's so good to see them finally talking to each other more, and seeing each other more clearly.

[laurie_ky]

All the communication, painful as it was, is starting to help get them on the same page.

Thanks for reading and commenting,
