OMG! Aww *squee* she did it - I'm so proud of my girl, she really was brave (and who wasn't already in that situation and can feel how nervous and excited such a declaration feels?)

Lee is so stubborn. I don't blame him, I understand that he just protects his heart, his feelings from getting hurt again, but he literally hides behind his job and the facade of commanding...I'm so curious how he will react now :D

LOL!

Does that mean you're going to forgive me (and Lee) if he responds to this? :)

I"m grinning like an idiot... I love the tie back to Flight of the Phoenix.... the man can't help but worry about her. :O)

[suffolkgirl]

No, however angry he likes to think he is with her, he still worries :)
The line just seemed to fit there, so glad you liked it.

Yay! She did it. Good girl, Kara!

Now, let's see how Lee reacts. Why does that make me nervous?

[suffolkgirl]

Maybe because Lee = stubborn?

But he's got three chapters yet to get over it.

[jatnj]

And he'll probably use all three of them! =)

YAY! FINALLY! GAH!

I have no patience, next installment, please?
