Aw that was sad.. I liked it though..good insight on what couldhappen

[slybrunette]

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

Ok, part of me wants to cry. Its so sad, but the ending is open for us to decide whether Izzie is going to run away or come back so I suppose it could end happily. And I'm glad she finally said it back to him.

Agh. Poor Alex.

What song is the title from?

[slybrunette]

They are sad. At this point in time, it's almost more painful them being together than it was when they were apart.

Title comes from "Must Get Out" by Maroon 5.

Thanks for reading and reviewing hun!

[ladybeth]

Seems like it.

Hmm...I might have that one. Sounds familar. Was it on thier first CD?

[slybrunette]

Yeah, it was. Songs About Jane. If you don't have it I can upload it.

I really think that the one good thing that MAY come out of all this ghost sex and other craziness is it will be a great opportunity for the writers to explore Alex (and we all love a little Alex exploration!).

Izzie and Alex's relationship (I believe) is one of the few on the show that is totally and utterly believable. Their chemistry, the reasons they got together, their history, everything about them I can justify.

I loved this telling of what may come. Hopefully the show's writers handle it just as eloquently.

[slybrunette]

I think it will be good for that -- if they bother, which they really haven't. He still remains an extension of Izzie, IMO, at the moment.

Alex/Izzie has always been my OTP, simply because I find them very believable -- as you said it is all justifiable which is rare in television.

I'm so glad you liked this! Thanks for reading and reviewing!

[waltzmatildah]

I think they started to indicate that they might go there with Alex by giving him that scene with Addison in the most recent episode. It was good to hear vocalised what I was assuming must be true (and lets face it, lots of what makes Alex Alex must be assumed 'cause the writers sure don't give us much!).

Forgive my ignorance but what is OTP? If it's anything like I think it is then I agree wholeheartedly (yes, they are believable, but it kinda helps that they are both so smokin' hot, too!!!)

I can sometimes be a very slack reviewer, but I love all your Alex/Izzie stuff. Can't wait for the next one.

[slybrunette]

Yeah, I'd been expecting him to be feeling something like what we got in that crossie -- and I'm very glad for that scene (makes me glad at least 2 mins of that crappy show was worthwile).

OTP = One True Pairing. Not ignorant, a lot of people don't know it.

And you're not a slacker hun, you're an awesome reviewer -- certainly better than I am let me tell you. Thanks again!

[geekrock]

I don't even watch Grey's. That was lovely.

[slybrunette]

Wow, I'm mildly surprised that you read it then, much less liked it. Thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[tchu_tchu]

you write Alex beautifully!
So in character...
and Izzie with her craziness...
But that was beautiful... and really sad!
Great job

[slybrunette]

Aw thanks! I really do try a lot with Alex. I'm glad you liked this!
