Oh, my heart! Fucking brilliantly painful.

[leonhart_17]

Thank you! I was nervous as shit about this one!

Good chapter hopefully arizona will make progress and things will slowly start to get better

[leonhart_17]

We'll see how it goes. :) Everyone is trying though!

Agree with the two comments posted so far! That was painful to read seeing Arizona so broken. :(

But this line: "I'm always going to come through the door if you're on the other side of it" I couldn't help but swoon over it.

[leonhart_17]

I know :(

I'm glad you liked that! That one wasn't in the first draft you know, but it just seemed like something Callie would say. :D

[knocks_you_down]

Ah! Maybe that's why it stuck out so much to me. But it is the perfect thing for Callie to say!

[leonhart_17]

:) The Callie part of this one got rewritten a little bit from what I last sent you. But I liked it!

Great chapter. Nothing to be nervous about. You got it perfect. I would like Callie to ask if she could maybe come to a session or two, though. She needs help as the partner re: how to cope with all this stuff. Definitely loved the line about always coming through the door if Arizona's on the other side of it. I totally see both POV. If I were Arizona I'd be afraid of Sofia witnessing something like what happened in this chapter. She's a wee bit young to understand.

[leonhart_17]

Thank you! We'll get to Callie and the therapy, not to worry. I like that line too! :) Arizona's scared too because Sofia is a bit more fragile than Callie is. :/ But they're working on getting them all back together. :)

[ext_1614268]

As much as Sofia is young and it'll be tough for her to understand, they should at least try. I actually have an idea for a really cute bit you could do if you want me to share. Shall I pm you?

[leonhart_17]

Sure! I'd love to hear it!

OMG....brilliant angst. Speechless. All is great, the first glimpses of the plot, of their emotional sides, the problem and seeing them despite the very difficult situation keep talking & leaning to one another as much as they can! the story is unfolding and you are doing great.

[leonhart_17]

Thank you! It's been a different exercise for me to write them this way, but I really love the way this whole story turned out. I'm glad it reads well. And thank you for sticking with me!
