Author's Note: Hey everybody! Here it is, the answer to where Rose has been... and what is going through Jack's mind. (Standard don't own it blurb goes here)
Dear Rose, my sweet Blossom;
Where are you? I mean, where the bloody hell are you? I haven't seen you in weeks. I miss you, my sweetness. I've kept busy, though, I looked through the entire house, twice mind you, and I couldn't find you anywhere. I did find some cheese. Actually, I found lots of cheese and some honey and some rum. Lots of rum, which I drank with my friend Eshu. Eshu told me that I should build you something beautiful and heartwarming. So I built you a statue. A life-size statue made entirely out of cheese and honey, for you are sweet like honey and the most beautiful creature in the world. I then gave your statue some rum because I love you more than I love rum. (And you know how much I love rum) And then I lit it on fire because it would be warming and the heater is still broken. It was all very breathtaking. You could have seen it if you were here. But you are somewhere else. Where the hell are you, Rose? I mean it, where are you? I'll tell you where I am. I am currently hiding from Kate, because the smell of burning cheese angers her. Or, at least, that's how Paige explained it. I think it's because she hasn't had sex in a few days. I haven't had sex in what seems like forever because I can't bloody find you! Well, I need to find a better hiding place.
Love + kisses,
Jack
WHERE ARE YOU! WHY AREN'T YOU H…
Jack,
put the cheese back. I'm fine, everything's fine. Stop setting things on fire!
Love, Rose
PS You didn't do anything to make me leave you. Honestly, I love you very much. Things are just complicated. So, if I had to blame anything, it would be my work.
Author's note: As always, a big, huge thank you to our betas, Jenonymous and Katarina MacGonagall (I don't think I spelled that right, sorry Kat!) Who have stayed with us through about half of the last story and three chapters of this one... we owe you two big time.
And thank you to Jen and Letisha, the ONLY TWO to review at all... honestly, I'm beginning to think no one else likes us sniff, sniff
Letisha: I agree. Way to go, Paige! Woot, woot, my character is kicking ass! As to your question, heh heh, you'll just have to wait and find out, won't you? >:p Well, I could tell you how the story ends... but then what fun would reading it be? (Also, he didn't blow anything up... he merely melted down about 20 lbs of cheese. :D)
Jen: Yes, it is very Paigey to sign off that way, exactly what I thought when I wrote it. Thanks for the spelling correction, Prof took care of it, I think. As for Remus's Mum, well, she's Prof's creation so I can't speak fully for her, but I can say that she's the type to see a "good idea" (in her mind, anyway) and latch onto it. Special Brownies would be just that to her.
Everybody else: Like it? Hate it? Wish we were impaled on tall spikes in the Slytherin Common Room? Let us know! Review! Review!
