A/N YaY okay I'm catching up. Okay everyone so this chapter has some tension in it along with a confession. I liked writing this and what happens. Will get to see the point of view regarding Finn from these two. Also some fluff is involved were getting a little deep. Will see what you think! Thanks for all the support. xoxo

Raven stood in her apartment pacing waiting for Octavia to show up. They were all going midnight bowling and for some reason she was nervous. The fact that Octavia had made it a double date with Clarke and Lexa made her wonder if Octavia was nervous as well. The day had been great her and Octavia had taken a few steps forward in there getting to know each other slowly this time. She knew before it was like a heated sexual attraction tug with both of them. They had pretty much thrown themselves as each other once they both know it was mutual. It was never expected and Raven never thought she would have a chance with the girl. Now though the sexual attraction was stronger and it was killing both of them to take it slow but Raven wanted to make sure that Octavia knew she was in this for more than just sex. Her past had screwed her over already even if she wasn't sleeping with every girl who hit on her it was known she was liked by several and Octavia had never been a jealous person but for some reason they both brought it out in each other.

Knock Knock

Raven jumped hearing her door she pretty much ran to it after giving herself a quick look over in the mirror. She stuck to basic jeans loose jeans this time with a black and purple tight fitted tank top and a jacket. She knew they would be bowling so comfy and cool was the best way to go. She tied her hair up in a messy bun looking like her casual swag she was content.

"Hey." Raven swung the door open taking in Octavia. She was gorgeous. Showing off her legs she wore shaved blue shorts with a black and green loose tank top and a off the shoulder sweatshirt at the moment. Her hair was down and curly with a small hint of makeup on. Taking a gulp she smiled looking back up at Octavia who had a eyebrow raised at her.

"What took you so long to answer the door." Octavia wanted to laugh seeing Raven complete and obviously check her out.

"Sorry I figured you would just walk in." Raven knew it wasn't true and that she had been checking her outfit out making sure she was confident in it.

"Ohh well I didn't know what to expect so I knocked." Octavia walked into Raven's apartment and of course it was clean to the point of being OCD minus her little engineering contraption she seemed to be working on at her word bench.

"Want a beer?" Raven couldn't shake off the feeling of being nervous.

"Sure crack one for me." Octavia hopped up on the stool knowing she came over early even if it was a bad idea to be alone with Raven but she wanted to see her.

"What do you want I got Modelo, Blue Moon, Shock Top, and the new summer honey in angry orchard." Raven turned looking at Octavia think it over.

"Umm just give me my favorite." Octavia tested Raven a little to see if she actually knew.

"Raven grabbed a Shock Top out of the fridge knowing that raspberry wheat was her favorite.

"Smart woman." Octavia grabbed the beer with a smile on her face.

"I pay more attention than you think." Raven winked at her grabbing a blue moon out of the fridge along with an orange slice.

"So what is that thing you got there?" Octavia pointed to the work bench seeing some odd robot looking thing.

"That oh it's a submission project for a class. I'm trying to get my chance to show my work to an engineering company and your first step is to prove that you are smart enough." Raven laughed looking at her project she was hoping it was enough.

"So what is this one about." Octavia got up not realizing how much Raven had to draw and map out the design. She could see the the water tanks and guns on the drawings but nothing else she could interpret. She seen that Raven had been redrawing the figure several times like she wasn't satisfied with her work.

"I"m hoping to make a robot or attachment to help firefighters. Safety first when fighting a fire and if we can get the material correct we might be able to make something stand ground for them so they can be at a further distance. This is actually more than a starter project it's been something on my mind for awhile I just can't get the design down right." Raven walked up behind Octavia who was currently running her fingers over her drawings.

"What is this?" Octavia pointed at a sketch that didn't fit anything on the bench.

"That is a personal project I am working on." Raven forgot that her sketches for what she was making Octavia was on the bench as well.

"I never realized how much you had to draw when doing this." Octavia ran her fingers over the other mappings before spotting the letter to the course Raven would have to leave town for. She didn't want to ask about it again but seeing it made her heart hurt a little.

"It's one of the reasons Clarke and I bonded that summer being in the same drawing class." Raven had met Clarke first before being introduced to Octavia.

"Makes sense with the prodigy Griffin." Octavia laughed thinking about how talented her best friend was at so many things.

"You got us both beat in the soccer department." Raven was dying to reach out and touch the girl in front of her.

"True but then again I have always been the sporty girly girl." Octavia turned around not realizing how close Raven was too her.

"I think you are beautiful." Raven spoke looking into Octavia's eyes.

"Smooth talker." Octavia cracked a smile knowing she was blushing.

"I only speak the truth." Raven tipped her chin up before leaning in to give her a light kiss. She wanted so much more but just knowing Octavia wasn't going to reject her made the butterflies in her stomach come to life.

"Mmhmm this I know." Octavia took a swig of her beer trying to cool herself down after the kiss.

"So I have a question for you." Raven stepped back giving them both room. Walking to the counter she hopped up on it dreading rejection.

"What might that be." Octavia stayed where she was checking Raven out. You could see the muscles in Raven's arms now that she had taken her jacket off. She was sure if the girl stood up you might even be able to see the outline of her abs because Octavia knew for a fact Raven had to be working out harder to burn off the frustration because that is all she had been doing.

"May I take you out on a real date." Raven spit it out and then quickly took a swig of her beer waiting for Octavia to answer. She watched the girl snap out of whatever her thoughts were hearing the question.

"What?" Octavia spoke before thinking.

"You don't have to answer right now I just." Raven got nervous again she started to mumble before Octavia cut her off.

"Yes." Octavia smiled seeing Raven play with her beer because she was nervous.

"Are you sure?" Raven held back her smile waiting for the confirmation.

"Yes I am sure Raven." Octavia walked up the brunette squeezing herself between her legs and tugging on her shirt pulling her down into a kiss. It has to have been the cutest thing she had ever been asked. It had always been just a typical were going to hang out thing in her past when she dated guys but this was the first time she had been actually asked out on a date.

"I don't want you to worry about anything. I have it planned." Raven smiled into the kiss before pressing her lips to Octavia's again savoring the taste.

"Planned huh? Must have been confident with the answer." Octavia joked seeing Raven blush this time.

"Well you know me and all this swag I tend to be a wanted woman. We can even ask your teammates." Raven laughed seeing Octavia roll her eyes.

"Yeah go ahead but trust me I am positive they all know you're mine now." Octavia slid her hand up Raven's thigh proving her point when she seen Raven's eyes go dark and she bit her lip.

"Hmmm okay point proven." Raven wanted to groan feeling Octavia's hand make it's way up her thigh but she also couldn't keep the smile off her face hearing Octavia saying she was hers.

"That is what I thought." Octavia smacked Raven's thigh turning to walk away before she felt herself get pulled back her body smashing into Raven's. She hadn't even heard Raven get off the counter but they were face to face and the brunette's arms were wrapped around her tight keeping their bodies flush. Octavia could see and feel the emotions coming off Raven.

"When the time is right. I plan on proving that every inch of you is mine as well." Raven smirked hearing Octavia suck in a breath before she let her go walking back to finish off her beer before throwing it away.

"You ready?" Raven asked nonchalantly like she hadn't just proven her point to Octavia as well.

Octavia could feel her heart racing. Raven just flipped the tables on her a little too quickly and every inch of her body was now craving the brunette. Knowing that Raven wanted her that badly had her weak in the knees and knowing she was the one to initiate the taking it slow was the worse revenge she ever put on herself.

"Yup I'm ready." Octavia snapped out of it smiling as she headed for the door she needed the cool air to calm her nerves.

"By the way you look fantastic tonight." Raven decided it was time to show Octavia just how stunning she was and how much she really deserved.

Octavia was standing on their lane waiting for Raven to come back with their bowling shoes. They had been at the alley for nearly a half an hour waiting for Clarke and Lexa. Octavia knew exactly why they were late and she was texting Clarke a storm about doing the dirty and being late to their double date. She also couldn't help but enjoy the view I mean staring at Raven's ass while she leaned on the counter talking to the guy about god knows what was never a bad thing. She also couldn't help how cute Raven was every now and again glancing back at her like she was the only one standing in the room. Looking away for a minute she lost Raven until she spotted her walking with Clarke and Lexa towards their lane. Octavia shook her head watching Lexa and Raven exchange a little hand shake thing like they were best friends now.

One hour later….

"You're doing it wrong." Raven watched Octavia prepare to throw her ball and could see that she wasn't going to get anything near a strike.

"Oh my god don't critique me." Octavia glared at Raven who had been eyeballing her game all night. She straighten her thumb up with the middle arrow of the line secretly crossing her toes in her head that she could hit this.

"STRIKE BITCHES" Octavia jumped up and down having no idea how she did it but she watched Raven bust up laughing at her because she was doing her own little happy dance in front of everyone.

"Come here." Raven picked up Octavia and spun her around in a circle now caring who could see them she sat the brunette back down before kissing her.

"Mmm what was that for?" Octavia for once didn't feel like she needed to look around and worry about who could see them.

"It was just because." Raven brought her hand up cupping the side of Octavia's face watching her eyes close for just a second. Raven knew she had fallen for Octavia before but now she had no doubts in her heart that this was the person she wanted to be with.

"Well just so you know you can do that just because anytime you want." Octavia had finally come to terms with the fact that she wanted Raven as more than just a fling and she didn't care who knew it. She wasn't going to be afraid of what other thought of her because she was falling for Raven and it felt like the best thing she's ever opened herself up too.

"What are you thinking?" Raven watched Octavia thinking something over. She was hoping even after Octavia comment she hadn't pushed a little too far.

"That I am not afraid to be with you anymore. I don't care who can see us or who might judge me. This feels too right to deny it." Octavia knew she was opening up even more to Raven and she didn't care if it was in the middle of a bowling alley.

Raven didn't know what to say so she just leaned in and kissed Octavia hoping to prove every current word she was at loss for into the kiss. Hearing Octavia hum in approval she believe she got her point across before she heard some cough and make a slight gagging noise behind them.

"Shut up commander" Octavia spoke up hearing Lexa laugh behind them.

"Clarke does a wonderful job doing that." Lexa heard Clarke start laughing behind her.

"God we must be the poster children for pervy but sappy couples or something." Octavia laughed throwing her hands up to hunt Clarke out who randomly disappeared.

"WHAT THE FUCK." Octavia couldn't believe her eyes. She was standing not even a foot from Clarke who was now talking to Finn of all people and it didn't seem to be a pissed off conversation or a first one either.

Raven heard the commotion come from behind her. Looking at Lexa she could see the shock and worry on her face. She watched the brunette pretty much jump the chairs and head towards Octavia and Clarke who were in a heated argument so it seemed. Actually all she could hear was Octavia yelling at Clarke so she decided to join them and find out what the hell had just happened and that is when she saw him. She didn't know what to say or do she was currently standing about five feet from Finn Shaw the boy she fell in love with when she was so young. The boy she thought she would grow up and marry and have a family with. The boy she found out had been cheating on her for months with no one other than Clarke. She would never regret having Clarke in her life but she did regret trusting so blindly but she was young and it was her first relationship, her first everything.

"Clarke" is all Raven managed to get out hearing her and Octavia go back and forth with Lexa trying to to keep everyone calm. The next thing she knew between talking and not even knowing if what she was saying was correct she watched all them look at her.

"I thought I saw him the other day at the game. I guess I now know I wasn't seeing things and it was actually him." Raven spit it out.

Octavia turned hearing what Raven had said. She remember the girl mentioning it that night walking off the field and now she knew both of them were going crazy because Raven did really see Finn and Octavia really thought this day would never happen again. The fact that Clarke had known pissed her off beyond belief. The shit they all suffered through back then with Clarke's dad unexpectedly passing away and how Clarke had been roughed up and her having to watch her best friend go through that. She also had to stand and help Raven get over what Finn had done to her while Clarke moved on with him and then the cheating scandal with Finn. Just everything around that boys name was trouble and here he was all over again standing in their lives causing a huge ass mess again.

"Don't you dare keep stuff from us again Clarke." Octavia pretty much spit her words at her best friend.

"Octavia listen to me. I didn't keep it from you I just found out and I didn't want to jump to conclusions on top of the fact that you two were working on things and it was in the middle of the night when Lexa figured anything out." Raven listened to Clarke plead with Octavia on why she hadn't said anything.

"Fine but I still don't like it. I don't want him around either of you two or I swear to god he will lose his teeth again." Octavia looked around for Finn wanting to threaten him to his face.

"No punching people." Raven grabbed Octavia's hand trying to calm her down a little because the last thing they needed was the cops being called on them.

Raven watched Clarke and Lexa walk off going to find Finn to hopefully figure some of the bullshit out. She felt like her world was collapsing around her again because of Finn once again. She didn't realize she had started to pace when she felt Octavia stop her and wrap her arms around her.

"It's going to be okay." Octavia hugged Raven tight knowing this had to be hard.

"I know and like every part of me doesn't care about him anymore but I never thought I would have to face him again after everything." Raven was being honest she didn't have one ounce of feeling for the boy anymore besides a lingering dislike for how much of a liar he was.

"I believe you but he was your first and he did break your heart." Octavia leaned back knowing when her and her first boyfriend broke up it was hell and she still had unknown feelings for the boy. Your first just always stuck with you a little.

"I can't believe Clarke knew." Raven looked at Octavia knowing they both couldn't be mad at Clarke.

"Don't get me started, I plan on giving her a piece of my mind." Octavia wanted to smack her best friend right along with Lexa.

"Don't be mad at her." Raven tried to talk some sense into Octavia.

"I'm not but I am. I just don't get why she could keep such a thing from us." Octavia replayed Clarke's words in her head.

"They both obviously just found out." Raven knew it had only been a little over a day since all of this must have happened.

"True but still like the second he showed his face we should of known Raven. Look at what he did to both of you. He destroyed every part of your life and then Clarke's. He is like a leech who sucks the life out of people leaving a tornado destruction path afterwards." Octavia was the one who was pacing now.

"Wow." Raven laughed a little hearing Octavia description of Finn and how accurate it actually was before she noticed Octavia had stomped off heading in the direction Clarke and Lexa had gone.

Raven chased after Octavia seemed to be at a full walking sprint because by the time she caught up with her Octavia was already in the bar going off on Finn again. She heard Finn mention her and Octavia relationship along with any relationship Octavia had previously had with men. She couldn't handle hearing them all fight anymore especially since Octavia was ready to swing at Finn all over again.

"STOP" Raven yelled at the top of her lungs pretty much knowing others were looking at her but she had caused a pause in the fight before she watched Clarke shove Finn and then Gustus stepped up and grabbed him pretty much dragging him out of the bar against his will.

"Can we all please calm down and sit down for a moment" Octavia listened to Clarke all but beg for them to listen to her.

"I just want to leave." Raven gave Clarke a look saying sorry but she just couldn't handle it all at the moment.

"If she is leaving then so am I." Octavia finally threw up her hands so Lexa would let her go.

"Guys please give me ten minutes." Raven listened but just couldn't she needed to breath.

"Maybe tomorrow Clarke but I need time to think. I need away from all of this." Raven turned quickly to head out of the bowling alley.

"Clarke you will be hearing from me." Octavia threw her best friend a dirty look which she knew was probably not necessary but she was pissed.

"Raven wait." Octavia caught up with the brunette who had made her way out of the bar and into the arcade some how heading for the side exit door.

"Octavia I think I need to be alone." Raven took a deep breath once she had shoved through the door.

"No I am not leaving you. Not after all of this and not because you feel you need to push me away Raven." Octavia grabbed Raven forcing her to face her.

"Why does it still hurt." Raven was confused on why any of it was bothering her at all.

"He was your first Raven and the first to break your heart. No matter what you do he's always going to have that that." Octavia leaned down making Raven look her in the eyes now.

"It's not fair though. None of this effects him and yet I can still feel that small stab in my heart from what happened so long ago." Raven started walking towards Octavia car because she everything in her wanted to run she needed to move.

"Raven it's okay to have feelings. Your emotions are allowed to be seen. Acting like any of this doesn't hurt to some small extent would be a lie." Octavia caught up with Raven once again matching her stride.

"I just need air O. I feel like I can't breath." Raven was begging her body to not have a panic attack.

"Come on I know just the place for us to go." Octavia opened the door to her car letting Raven get in hoping her idea was going to help the girl

Raven closed her eyes in the car as Octavia drove. She wasn't sure where they were going but she just trusted Octavia to bring her some where that might help her. Anything honestly would help her if she knew she was far away from the situation that just had happened. Feeling the car come to a stop she realized they had pulled up behind the women's pro soccer field.

"What are we doing here." Raven looked at Octavia confused.

"Come on I got a surprise for you." Octavia jumped out of the car hoping her friend wouldn't mind she had someone with her this time.

"I don't understand." Raven took Octavia's hand as the girl started to drag her towards a back entrance.

"Heeyyyy buddy." Octavia knocked on the window to the field seeing the one and only security guard she was friends with.

"How are you today Mrs. Blake." Raven listened to the old man address Octavia by her last name and they seemed to be friends.

"I hope you could give me a little time. Kind of had a bad night and you know how this clears my mind and cheers me up." Octavia smiled at the guy knowing he had a small weak spot for her.

"Of course anything for you. Just don't forget me when it's you playing on that field." Octavia laughed at the guy and patted him on the shoulder hearing the door buzz next to them she turned leading Raven through the doors and down the stairs to the field.

"Octavia." Raven looked around not realizing how big the pro field and stadium was. It was like they were standing in a giant dome with every light shining down on them. Standing in the spotlight. This is exactly how it would feel for Octavia playing one day.

"Come on Raven just trust me." Octavia tugged her hand some more making the girl walk with her towards the center of the field.

"Okay what are we doing in the middle of the field." Raven looked around confused.

"Lay down." Octavia went to sit down.

"Okay I love to get a little freaky in some random places but we are not having sex on this field Octavia." Raven shook her head at Octavia was already sitting on the ground.

"Shut up and sit down Raven." Octavia yanked her down to the ground.

"This has got to be the most craziest shit I've ever done." Raven wanted to laugh but she was still unsure.

"We're not having sex geez." Octavia laughed shoving Raven to lay down on her back before she lifted her hand in the air giving her friend a thumbs up.

BOOM

Raven jumped watching the lights on the field start to whine before each section shut down leaving the whole entire field pitch black.

"If you plan on killing me you could have done it in a better way." Raven looked around barely being able to make out Octavia's shadow but she felt her lay down next to her so they were side by side.

"Raven look up." Octavia rolled her eyes even though Raven couldn't see her and then she heard it. The sound of Raven in shock.

"Wow." Raven looked up and you could pretty much see every star in the sky. Nothing around them with lights stopped the sky from lighting up. It was amazing and probably the most she had ever seen since they lived in the city.

"I'm glad you think so." Octavia reached down lacing her fingers with Raven letting the brunette soak in the fact that this was the best view of the sky and no one knew about it.

"How did you learn about this." Raven was curious.

"I come here all the time when I need to think or get out of my head. It's like my safe haven being on the field. My whole life is soccer and I can leave the world behind with all the problems and bullshit the second I step on the field. So I started coming here to just lay in the grass and then I got caught by the security guard but I explained it to him and he understood so he just let me in now." Octavia laughed a little bit.

"How did you learn about the stars though with the lights off." Raven looked over at Octavia with her eyes adjusting now she could see the brunette was looking at her too.

"I came here one night bawling my eyes out and he walked me out to the field with a flashlight talking to me about how everything will get better and he gave me the story about how him and his wife use to come out here before she passed away and he raised his thumb in the air and just like that the lights clicked off and he told me to never feel alone there is a whole other world out there and I have been hooked every sense." Octavia watched Raven take in her story about the one place that makes her world at ease.

"Why did you bring me here." Raven asked wondering why Octavia would give up her happy place her place of being.

"You said you needed to breath and to be free and what better place to do it by looking up into the sky and seeing all the stars wondering what could be up there." Octavia turned her head away looking up at all the stars.

"So you are willing to share all of this with me." Raven was still looking at Octavia.

"Yes I want to share everything with you Raven." Octavia kept her eyes on the sky because she could feel Raven staring at her and she wasn't sure what to think.

"You remember that class I got accepted too." Raven looked up at the stars now.

"Yes." Octavia took in a deep breath not sure if she wanted to have this conversation.

"I called them the other day and let them know I had to turn down their offer but that I greatly appreciated the opportunity." Raven knew exactly why she did it.

"Why did you do that Raven. You said it was a once in a lifetime class." Octavia was stunned. She prepared herself for Raven to leave and she knew it would kill her but it was only for a few months.

"I called and told them that I couldn't accept it because I had fallen in love with this crazy, beautiful, intelligent, spontaneous, talented girl and I just couldn't manage leaving her side." Raven smiled thinking of the guy on the other end telling her she was beyond lucky to find a love like that.

Octavia had no idea what to say. She had just listened to Raven and her reason why she turned down the class of a lifetime. The reason was her. She also just said she had fallen in love with her and Octavia could feel the butterflies rolling around in her stomach and she swore her heart was going to beat out of her chest. She smiled feeling Raven squeeze her hand.

"Did you know that crazy, beautiful, intelligent, spontaneous, talented girl loves you too." Octavia said it. She was shocked hearing it come out of her own mouth but she said it and she didn't regret it because she knew in her heart it was the truth.

Raven listened to the words leave Octavia's mouth. She wanted to roll around on the field and scream because Octavia had just told her she loved her too. It had to be a dream. It was all to real she wanted to pinch herself to prove it to be true.

"Can you say it one more time." Raven smiled because she wanted to hear it again.

"I love you Raven." Octavia laughed hearing Raven suck in a breath and blow it out extremely loud.

"Can you pinch me now." Raven started to laugh right along with Octavia.

"No I can't pinch you Raven but come here." Octavia leaned up capturing Raven's lips feeling the girl grip the back of her neck as the kiss was sweet and loving. It was like a kiss the sealed the deal. A kiss that proved both of their words to be true.

"This seems to be our thing." Raven whispered between each kiss Octavia gave her.

"What?" Octavia kissed Raven one more time before leaning down looking at the brunette.

"Looking at the stars. Like the night in the penthouse when you proved you were a smarty pants to me." Raven smirked hearing Octavia grunt at her.

"Do I need to label off everything you just called me." Octavia knew she would never let that long sentence down.

"No because you prove each and every one of them to me every day." Raven watched Octavia look down at her again.

"You really are a smooth talker Raven Reyes." Octavia ran her finger down Raven's lips wondering how she had missed all of this between them.

"I told you before Octavia I only speak the truth." Raven felt Octavia's hand start to roam her body it made her shiver.

"I missed this." Octavia let her hands start to remember every inch of Raven. It felt like it had been months since they took the time to feel each other.

"You missed feeling me up." Raven raised an eyebrow not even sure if Octavia could see her.

"No smartass. I missed just being with you. Sitting with you and talking to you and who couldn't miss your attitude." Octavia hadn't fully realized the impact Raven had put on her life till this moment between them.

"Octavia I told you I only want you and I don't plan on ever letting what we have go." Raven knew it was the truth. She never planned on letting anyone or anything get in between them again.

"So we're really doing this?" Octavia was curious if this was it.

"Yes we're doing this and I am still taking you on a date." Raven tugged on Octavia so she would lay down next to her.

"Okay so let's see how smart you are." Octavia looked up once again looking for all the star constellations.

"This is not my area of expertise." Raven laughed having no clue because all she seen was a black sky and white dots.

"Looks like I have a few things to teach you." Octavia bit her lip hearing Raven cough a little as she slid her hand up Raven's shirt.

"So where is the big dipper." Raven tried to clear her mind feeling Octavia's hand roam over her bare skin.

"If you look right there seeing those four stars creating a soup ladle and then the handle goes this way." Octavia pointed not moving her other hand that still lay on Raven's stomach.

"Mmhmm I think I see that." Raven was trying her hardest to concentrate on Octavia words.

"Raven." Octavia leaned up not caring about the stars anymore.

"Octavia." Raven repeated Octavia's tone which was dripping with sexual tension.

"Shhhh." Octavia leaned down again crushing her lips to Raven's. She wanted everything and she wanted it now.

"I know I told you I love you but I still want to take things slow. I want us to build up from what we have. I want to show you who I am and what this can mean long term for us." Raven was trying to talk while Octavia was flooding her senses.

"Also I'm still not having sex with you on this field." Raven laughed feeling Octavia's hands stop.

"You really know how to ruin a moment." Octavia started laughing herself. She didn't care where they were but Raven was right just because they admitted to their feelings doesn't mean the world was perfect they still had things to address and to slow their world down but for now it was pretty damn good.

A/N Eeekkkk okay I did it I let them share the LOVE word. Now I know a few of you are going to be like OMG taking it slow and then BAM I love you but we all know their feelings were there they now just have to work on being a couple. An OUT couple at that. Also we got some tension between the girls and Clarke and of course Finn being a partial jerk as always and Octavia ready to fight. Next the two stories get a BOOM. Please review and thank you all for sticking with me. xoxoxo
