Well, I didn't forget. But the story fragment that was still sitting on my hard drive and needed just a little rewriting, turned out to be written in German. And translation is going rather slow these days.
But you weren't talking about other stories, now were you?

http://www.lcficmbs.com/ubb/ubbthre...-response-ten-minutes-ago-1-1#Post288243Mine was "10 Minutes Ago" from R&H Cinderella. It was pretty much handed to me on a plate, since the lyrics boil down to "I met you and fell in love, and now we're flying!" Full lyrics are linked in the Fdk page.
