Hey people! I want to apologize for disappearing like that. Dx finals suck lol. But now I should be able to write! In fact, I am in the process of trying to decide what to do for the next chapter lol cause my creative ideas have just gone *poof*.

ALSO ~ If there is anyone out there who would be willing to make a temporary cover page for this story, until I can do one myself, I would love you forever (lol cookies for you if you do). So if anyone can do that for me, please let me know! Thanks!

So, I should have the next chapter up... hm... maybe the end of this week? Idk, we'll have to see how my schedule goes. At the moment, I may be having a repeat of the ear infection/fluid-filled eardrums that I had around New Year's. Ugh. So, yeah... thanks for being such a great group of fans, and I'll shall have some more Gary & Ash fluffiness for you all soon!
