Okay, I'm loving this so far, but please, I'm begging you, don't make Roy a thing in this. I always find Roy angst just drags everything down into the gutter and just fuckin'... ugh. Anyway, as I said, loving this, loving just wrapping myself up in this fluffy blanket of relationships that actually work and this doesn't sound very heterosexual for a late teens guy so I'm going to go ahead and stop now.
Please continue.


(and please no Roy okay thanks)

I feel you on that, I honestly can’t stand Roy so if he is in this at all, it will probably be a footnote or a reference to a high school relationship that didn’t end well! I like to write Pam more like she was towards the end of the show, funny and more brave but still a little insecure at times. 

Thank you for reading and for the feedback :)

aaaaaAAAAA YES THIS IS BACK. I've been waiting for ages for this series. Anyway, thoroughly enjoying it as ever, although as the fifth child in a family with 6 children I feel like I should say that it's not all madness. I *should* say that, but after Christmas I can confirm that it definitely is complete madness. Anyway, great to read some more of your stuff. While I'm at it, have a jellybean. Happy holidays, WishYouWould.

NooooOOOOO I STARTED READING THIS THINKING IT WAS FINISHED, I CAN'T BELIEVE I HAVE TO WAIT. Anyway, absolutely brilliant as always Coley. Here, have a jelly bean.

Author's Response: Oops. Sorry about that SP - I promise the last chapter will be worth the tiny wait! Thank you so much for reading :)

You're British, aren't you? 40 degrees Celsius is unbearably hot, but for Americans it's freezing. Like 4 degrees for us. Also they don't use "shed-load" or "dickhead", but it's lovely to hear some Britishisms. Or Australianisms? I don't know.

Anyway, I adore this story. This idea of them getting "accidentally" married is a brilliant framing device, and I feel the usual frustration at them for not just bloody telling the other one that they love them already.
I also have a guilty pleasure for stories that make Roy into an arsehole. Because he is, to be honest. Anyway, love the story and if you need a beta tester to flag the Britishisms, I'm right here.
Oh, and have a jellybean.

Author's Response:

First of all, thank you very much for the review, and for the jellybean! I'm glad you've enjoyed it so far.

Secondly...damn. I must be getting lazy. I keep Merriam Webster open (and American Amazon, which has been really useful for checking names of objects, because they do sell absolutely everything), and I've been religiously checking everything I think might be an issue. I'm annoyed I missed the temperature, because I know this. I'll change that. I've actually heard dickhead used in the US, though I should probably have known that it isn't standard. I reckon Jim is a bit indie, and he probably watches a lot of British TV / listens to UK bands etc..., so I'll give him that one :o)  But...you don't have sheds??

I'm in Scotland, where you have to catch a plane if you want to see 40C. It made 30 (ahem, 86) here for the first time in recorded history this summer. People didn't know whether to go out and have look at it or stay in and hide. It rained for the rest of the day. 

P.S. I would have caught arsehole and bloody! Don't know how you all manage without the latter, to be honest...It's been frustrating not being able to use it here.

Thanks again!
