I realized after these stories were reveiled that the ending to this story is not there.  I know it was there when I tranfered the file.  *huge heaving sigh* But do to either website malfuntion or human error, it's not there now.  and it's not on my computer.  (insert all the frustrated emojis here)   It wasn't much but still, it ended the story a little better.  I will fix it in the next few days, as I'm still busy with holiday stuff and family.  Again, my deepest apologies, esp to BlackRosesTears who was the recipent of this.
