I think you meant to say that Bill was gripping the steering wheel HARD enough to break it. Left out a word, LOL.

It's good, I like it. You've obviously got more affection for Jessica than I do (I absolutely hate her. I don't mind them deviating from the books, there's a couple things I'd DEFINITELY have not done...(LAFEYETTE!!!! I MISS THEEEEEEE!!!)...but...I don't know where they're going with Jessica and she's incredibly...hilarious, but still irritating.

Still...good story.

Also, LOVE Hoyt in this. I can totally see him doing this.

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it. Yes, even though Jessica isn't in the books, annoying as hell, I still adore her. I think she's a good addition. :)

Actually I didn't leave out the word. I think the phrase still gets across the meaning without the word 'hard' in it, IMO.

This was fun, and Jessica is annoying, but I don't hate her. I didn't miss the word, hard, at all - knew what you meant.
I like that you showed a little more depth to her character - that she doesn't need to kill. She is a great foil for Bill.

Thanks! I'm glad that works for you. I figured if I used the word 'hard' it would mean that he would break it, with that vampire strength and all. lol.

I like giving depth to minor characters. I think she has some potential not just to be an annoyance. Thanks again!

I hate Jessica, really. She's just so very annoying.
However, I adored your story - Hoyt is definitely dumb enough to fall for this and Bill is priceless in this. *loves*
