Thank you for your wonderful review! *blushes* I'm so glad that you enjoyed this. Lol, there were times when I really wondered if I was going too far. I was like, surely by now they're going to have sex, right? And then Severus would be difficult and run away, and I would have to start the build-up all over again. I think it was almost as draining for me to write as it was for Severus to experience, lol.
