I'm glad to hear about your dad, too, Hitomi. Lord knows I understand what you're going through with that. My dad had a heart attack two years ago while I was in college. He's fine now, but needless to say it was emotionally draining. God blessed me with pals that drove me to the hospital at two in the morning (I went away to school). It sounds like you've got tons of other stuff to deal with on top of your family's emotional roller coaster ride. My heart goes out to you, girl. Do not, and I repeat, do NOT work yourself into a tizzy with this fic. It is amazing, and we fans know it's not going anywhere. We will always be giddy with anticipation!!
As for the virgin thing, Lord knows I understand that too...okay, so this is obviously "share your dirty laundry that no one else want's to see" hour. Yeah, yeah, I'm 24, and I've had dates and boyfriends, but I haven't yet met anyone that's felt right. Well, one, but let's not go there...I don't want to say that it's standards or morals or self-respect...it's more instinctual. I'm weird, and I think I'll just 'know' who it should be. Of course, the older I get the harder it is to keep the "V" card membership, if ya know what I'm sayin'. I do have an imagination, and BELIEVE ME, the lemon would not be hard to write. So anyways...

I'm embarrassed I wrote this...I understand your hesitance, if nothing else!
Take it easy, babe! We love your fics and we love you!!!
