Oh my God, Mary. This was just...the most heart-wrenching chapter you've written yet, without a doubt, and maybe one of the most heart-wrenching things I've read in my life ever. I had a really, really hard time not crying while reading this.
The scene with their last time together as a couple in Jon's office was just...oh my God. I can't put it into words. And all your quotes from earlier chapters in the fic, when they were happy, absolutely killed me. My heart is just broken. I felt like it was happening to me and that I had to say goodbye to the love of my life. I know it's awful, but I kind of hate Evie right now.
I shook my head and let out a choked sob. "I don't blame her. We've been assholes. I don't know why we even..."
I couldn't finish the sentence. Jon was staring at me with those damn blue eyes of his and I knew exactly why we'd started this.
"I love you," I choked and he gathered me in his arms once more.
THIS IS THE PART THAT SLAYED ME MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE. Oh, dear God. :'( I will be sending you my funeral bills shortly.
The only emotion that I feel stronger than my intense sadness right now is my amazement at what a wonderful writer you are.
Okay, to make myself feel better I'm going to stare at my icon for a long time, and maybe take away some of the angst that I was going to put in my latest J/S fic. XD I might have to write some wifeless AU after this.
