okay, THIS IS BRILLIANT. everything was just, gah. PERFECT.

Her heart is a jig-saw puzzle. He needs to fix her. Rings on fingers; fate sealed

&

She was addicted to breaking her own heart.

(Once your heart breaks how do you fix it?
How does it mend?)

&&

I hope she’ll be a fool-that’s the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool.
If nothing describes her better- than those words.

GATSBY, YES. so perfectly Serena. all of this, spot-on DS.

I would write practically every line down as my favourite, seriously. I adore this and I love you so much for writing this! ♥

This is gorgeous. I'm not a DS shipper, but it was written so brilliantly I don't even care.

Oh, oh and Serena is Daisy! Blake losing the part of Daisy was crazy! Wrong, wrong, wrong. The world made a mistake :(

thank you so much!

i think she would have made the best daisy! seriously! she's perfect for the role. i wonder what they're going to do with CM's hair!

But i honestly see so much Serena in fitzgerald's writing. She said her favorite book is the beautiful and the damned for god's sake!

any way thanks again so much for your comment ♥

This so beautiful Kels, and so agonizingly painful. (I'm still trying to work out how I didn't notice this in my flist when you posted it. Aargh)

It's heartbreaking that the mistakes she made in her youth seem to always be lutking in the darks of the shadows.

They've never been a perfect couple, but after four years of marriage they've learned to co-exist . This line is so them. They're never going to be the couple that everybody wants them to be, but they can be themselves and they can love each other for who the other is. Faults and all. He can love her despite everything. Despite her mistakes and her bad choices and who she used to be

I know you've never read the books, but one of the big rumors in the first book or two is that she came back from boarding school because she had been pregnant, and this...fits...with her character.

Great fic bb =)
