hey annie. glad to hear you realize clay isn't the pope.
as for the story..
wonderful ending to a wonderful story. very sweet, very waffy.
i like the change in attitude once lois realizes that it's going to be a long-term thing. makes a lot of sense, and works very well. it also allowed for this sentence (and the paragraphs that go with it), which i really liked:
But though they may have stopped shy of completing the act, there was no doubt in his mind that they had made love.
beautiful sentiment.
also glad to see that jerk (who will, in this post at least, remain nameless) get what he deserves.
i think my favorite line from this part, though, is the following:
<<< And they all lived happily ever after. Well, until Playing for Keeps, of course. <G> >>>
so, just when do we get to see part one of that, hmmm?
