Oh nicely done. I like the twist of the thought that Zoe's issues with Gillian stem from Gill's relationship with Em.

Also, Ben! *sobs* COME BACK TO THE SHOW GOD DAMMIT. WE MISS YOU SO HARD.

Interesting. Zoe jealous of Gillian's relationship with Emily. I like that and I like that Zoe accepted that because Emily still loves her, no matter what. What a crazy emotional ride through Zoe's eyes. I loved every part of it. I LOVE that Reynolds is back (omg, I miss him so incredibly much. I'm like his biggest fan lol) helping out because he'd totally be there if Gillian went missing. I love that we see Zoe come to respect Torres and accept Cal/Gillian for who they are. Very nicely done. Even without all the details, I felt enough emotion to go crazy like Zoe. Brilliant.

That's an amazing fic, darling! Amazing!

I loved that you told the story from Zoe's POV. We only knew what she knew, and it was even more angsty that way. I loved that Cal completely broke down when he realised that they took Emily too. Both his girls were in danger, and he couldn't protect them.

Oh, and Ben! I'm so glad you used him here! And Zoe! I wish we could see her more, really. I loved that she realised that she has no problems with Gill's relationship with Cal, and that everything actually comes down to her relationship with Emily. But she hasn't lost her, and she'll learn to share her.

And the kiss between Cal&Gill! Just one question though: were they together before this whole ordeal, or was this their first kiss? Because I can't quite grasp it, and both could work.

Anyway, amazing work, like I said!
