Never used to read het anything, only slash. These are the first that actually made me enjoy reading het fanfic. They are so cute together it's beyond words. I also wonder when I fell in love with Ben Barnes, because I swear that wasn't supposed to have happened... uh. But in all honesty, how can one not? I also wholeheartedly approve of him growing the beard back.
Really look forward to that fic of yours hon, can barely sit still.
