Thanks again everyone!
Kathy - I did like Cat here. Somehow I get the impression though that he may have still turned her down once or twice.
HG - hehe! I may have to use that subtitle...
Woody - /whistles/ Cat just seemed to fit there

.
Iolan - the flirting/banter has been fun to write too! Angst? Tension? Hurt feelings? There CAN'T be pregnancy - at least not at this point...
HG - yes, I'm starting to realize that which is, btw, totally unfair.
Kathy - you were the perfect person, believe me

. And if I can every manage to finish pulling teeth on Ch. 2 of III I'll get it to you. I know some of what's happening after that but I have to get to it...
Amber - THANK YOU! You get a gold star! And a note in the next chapter coming momentarily...
Michael - see I told you I'm not evil. Yep am not. Definitely not.
More coming soon!
Carol
