Well  now, Elle really surprised me. Amazing that a boozy Elle is more honest with her feelings. Now, let's see how she acts when she's not liquored up.

In regards to Randall, Elle is a grown ass woman, she should be able to freeze that fucker out. And if he tries ANYTHING, she should first pepper spray that ass and then take his balls as souvenir.

Good update, Chica.

I hope Elle knows self defense. As the other posters have already stated, it sure won't hurt for Elle to polish that resume.

Great update, glad that Elle was honest with Dean even if she needed liquid courage to do so Lol. 

Elle needs to be very careful of Randall when she's alone with him, andcifvI were her, I would have some Mace or Pepper Spray handy..

Can't wait for more 

These two are so cautious and sweet--good for them.  Loved the way she asked Dean to be her beau :-).

Now when Randall asks Elle out she can say oh sorry I have a boyfriend, but he won't care.  I hope her boss isn't pimping her out.  Don't meet Randall at night, in fact don't even answer the phone after hrs. 

I wish Elle had replied to Peterson when he said he believes in her, that she knows what she is capapble of and believes in herself, too.  I say Elle needs to dust that resume off.  

When Randall gets out of hand I hope Dean whips that azz. 

The drunken confessions of Elle continue. I really do like where the story's heading, and how the relationship between the main characters is unfolding. Randall is a snake and he's going to cause some problems in their relationship. Either way I'm glad this antagonist got the protagonist to move in the right direction. Thanks for another great update. 

It's about time Elle was honest about her feelings.

I really love the chemistry between these two. 

Is anyone  besides me still annoyed with Elle?   Why is she so prickly about Dean?   What's  with all game playing?  Break the man off a piece, you know you want to! 

I'm liking this Dean. It's like he said, f' it, I'm going for what I want. That's more of who he is I think. Elle, on the other hand is...Elle. So, I have no expectations for her. I will just see where it goes.

I am loving Dean! And I adore their relationship, it seems Elle can be herself with him.

You have phone sex with a man and then want to take things slow... I'm with Tracie "child BOO". At least Dean is being realistic with his. He knows what he wants and ain't trying to hear anything else. Love it!

Can't wait for Dean's sexy self to lock Elle down

I'm glad that Dean and Elle didn't have sex and that they are taking it slow. They still need to get to know each other a bit more. And while I think its a good think that they are taking it slow, I'm not sure if Elle is doing this for the right reasons. I still have the impression that she is still not sure about what she honestly wants out of this. I honestly don't understand why she is so scared and insecure about this. I get that she was used and hurt in the past, put at this point, she can't continue to use that as an excuse anymore. She seriously can't think that Dean is only stringing her along for sex. The guy has put up with her and her stupid ways for this long. Its not worth it. If its sex that he wanted he wouldn't have continued playing this cat and mouse game with her. He would have left her ass already. He can get sex anywhere and from woman who are a lot more sexy and hotter than Elle. 

She should be happy that Dean is supportive, patient, and understands her reason of wanting to wait, because any other male would have left her and her mixed signals. Dean is obviously a gentleman and would never forced her to do anything that she is not comfortable with. But some may find her playing hard to get, annoying and that she is playing with their emotion. I know that she won't change by night though. I'm glad that she is at least trying, and that Dean is a lot more communicative. Because he too was just too laid back and never said what he actually wanted to say or was thinking.

I also hope that Elle won't mess this up because of what Tracie said. I don't think that Dean is trying to tie her up or has some control issues. But I do think that for now in their relationship that Dean has to take some kind of control, otherwise nothing will come out of it. If he wasn't the one to take the first step, who knows how long it would have took Elle to take it, or if she would have took it all. And like she said so herself, she did wanted to see Dean, but she was going to see him on her own accord. How long would that have take? Weeks? Months? Elle is kind of slow and I'm sorry to say this, but also a little dumb, when it comes to her private life. If with this attempt things doesn't work out and that she continues with her doubts and what not, that Dean should walk away from her for good.
