I just registered to review this! The way you wrote Kelly was perfect. I love how she will always be Kelly, and the way that Ryan's honesty knocked her speechless for that one rare moment felt so real. His confession also made him a little more human, to me, so thank you for that, as well :)

Author's Response: Thank you, WWilloughby!  I changed Ryan's "speech" about a hundred times because I didn't want it to come across too strong, but I'm glad that you felt it softened him up a tiny bit.  I think he does have that in him from time to time.  Thanks for taking the time to read and review!
