Hikaru: I do not own Stephanie Plum or her choice in men.


I don't know why I'm thinking about you so much.

I mean, seriously. All you ever do is cause trouble for me.

Ever since that day when I was six, all you've done is fuck up my life.

And yet...now all I can think of is doing you.

Being with you...being near you.

You have this affect on me...an affect no one else can accomplish.

I want to know why, but I'm afraid to ask.

I'm afraid of what your reaction would be.

I know you don't approve of what I do, but if it wasn't for this job, we never would have met again.,

So... I'm grateful for E.E. Martin firing me.

Even though I now have to carry that stupid gun, get shot at, and get my cars blown up.

So...if one day I find the courage to tell you...will you listen to what I have to say?

Will you listen to those four words?

And even more importantly...will you return them?

All I can do is hope for the best. After all, I'm a Plum.

I love you...Joe...
