Chapter 5

January 2013

They were conscious of the fact that they were just staring at each other in a mix of wonderment and trepidation, but they could not tear their eyes away.  It wasn’t until the waitress came to take their drink order that they realized they were in public, that they were sitting in London, having dinner, nearly 10 years after

Yay, new chapter.

A more complete picture is forming.

Now go get your Chipotle on.

[emmer23]

Oh girl. Chipotle was most definitely had. Though I also did not wait until I'd finished this chapter...because I have the self-control of a dog.

Glad it's all coming together for you!

Hmm don't know how well the "just friends" thing is going to work. And it's a good thing Arizona didn't say Rachel was the one!!

I love you's!!!!! Always the best. I'm glad Callie was able to snap Arizona out of her funk and realize she loves Callie too.

I think it's safe to say that the just friends thing isn't going to work at all. ;)

More is coming! Hopefully by next weekend!

Excellent chapter. I still feel frustrated and sad knowing that the break up is to come lol even if they end up friends years later. So Arizona couldn't commit was part of the problem? And the fact that she didn't live where Callie lived I'm guessing. I guess it makes it all that much sadder knowing that they loved each other and just let each other walk away

Always enjoy the present, how they nervously talk, I can feel the awkwardness between them yet at the same time Callie's feelings for Arizona, I'm finding it hard to pick up on much from Arizona, past and present at times but none the less really enjoying this

[emmer23]

You know I'm a sucker for a happy ending. Don't despair. :D

I'm really glad you're still enjoying it!

Another great chapter and once again my feelings have been both sadness and deep frustration for the present time and deep happiness for the past with their wonderful "I love yous". So Tim's death has been not the only reason for the break up but Arizona incapacity on commitment is part of the picture too, or maybe also the loyalty toward her family in Englad maybe she "sacrificed" her happiness convinced she needed to stay with her family after the loss of Tim? I'm trying to figure out the entire picture because I can't believe that some commitment fears let Arizona lose 10 freaking years of pure and amazing love, I have the sensation it can be a little bit more complicated than that or I'm just giving Arizona too much credit

[emmer23]

It's definitely complicated. They're very much in a wrong place and wrong time situation and so there are a whole host of reasons why they can't be together, unfortunately.

Young Callie is definitely lovely and I've loved writing her.

YOU rock, my dear! :D
