[i]Oh[/i]. That was absolutely gorgeous. My heart, watch it shatter into tiny pieces. You convey Michael's agony so well, it's absolutely incredible. And David - my God, now I'm falling in love with his fictional version as well? I'm currently biting my nails for the real David and the fake one, because this cannot possibly end well. It's sad when I have to worry about a fictional persona, alas, but your writing is so poignant that I have no other choice. Please give them a happy ending?
