p class="p1"span class="s1"Author's Note: Damn I can't believe I made it this far with this story not gonna lie. Usually I like doing one shots so much better than doing longer fics (mostly because I don't have the attention span needed to dedicate so much time to writing a decent long story. Oh! And cause with one shots I can do so many different situations and stories that I couldn't do with a longer fic. Anyway on with the class="Apple-converted-space" /span/span/p
