Author's Notes:For thenerd1026, who asked for 'slow in the beginning' and I might have really run with that, hence the word count. I was 99% faithful to your prompt (don't worry, a happy ending was definitely part of that 99%), and I hope you get something from all of the heart that I poured into this story. Love to my betas S and C. I guarantee you that any mistakes are totally mine, because I just could not stop revising and adding to this fic. It ate my soul.

A Second Chance at First Love

The hd family fest is over. I want to thank everyone who participated. This was my first time as a mod and it was a nerve racking experience at times, but it was a lot of fun. I would happily do it again. A special thank you to knowmefirst who so generously stepped in for me every time I needed help.

The anonymous masterlist will go up tomorrow and the reveals will go up on the 22nd of March.  I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.
