This is just gorgeous. Absolutely gorgeous.

If Idina’s being honest with herself- and she almost never is when it comes to Chenoweth- Kristin’s everything.

She doesn’t remember anything without Kristin- life was Kristin.
I can just feel the love and the resignation resonating from these two lines. They really capture their relationship.

When she found out, she thought of Kristin fucking Chenoweth.
I've always kinda wished this was the case...

I hope you continue writing chenzel! :)

Thank you so much! I'm really glad you caught the resignation- I was trying to get across pain without the pressure of the present.

I have been waiting for someone to write a really good piece about "her condition". You have done it. Thank you.
also:
"She still remembers Kristin’s small hands all over her, remembers the way her whole body thrummed when she kissed the blonde. She hasn’t known need like that since, hasn’t burned under someone’s hands." Stunning!

I actually saw a post somewhere (chenzel_love, perhaps?) that mentioned the lack of pregnant Idina fics and I was like, why not? Thank you!

I really hope you do a follow-up and write what transires when Idina takes the next step and meets Kristin face to face to talk about the the baby, the past/future and the plague that remains inside her.
Pretty please!

Ha, I'm working on another one right now.

An awesome first go! Really fabulous, and it has something distinct about it, too.

I loved so many lines, this one in particular:

He’s the best thing for her, but that doesn’t mean she never aches

I think it sums up what a lot of authors of this particular pairing try to capture, but in fewer words.

I also like the idea of Idina singing Defying Gravity in the shower, as a not-so-quiet way of indulging her nostalgia.

Thank you! I actually love Idina and Taye together and I had trouble trying to fit an Idina/Kristin relationship in with that, but I eventually worked it out.

Oh my.. This gave me goosebumps!
I've always wondered why people don't explore Idina's pregnancy. It's great that someone has finally decided to do it.. and one who writes well and isn't cheesy I might add. :D

This story is absolutely captivating.
My favorite line was: “And you know what, you know the fuck what? When she found out, she thought of Kristin fucking Chenoweth.”
Ouch! That line hurt my heart to read! Poor Dee... it breaks my (angst-loving) heart!

I hope you write more chenzel, you did an excellent job! :]

I wondered the same thing and decided to change that! Thank you so much!
