Beautiful work. I love the fragmented thoughts interspersed throughout the fic. The tension between them is palpable, and that climax *swoons*. That's one hot kiss! :)

I really enjoyed this. Nice work. The dialogue interspersed throughout the story works nicely.

The kiss made up for all the angst (though I enjoy angst very much anyway, especially angst with a happy ending)!

You're right about the angst - I had a good cry while reading this. I think you portrayed Cameron's feelings at that time perfectly. Her hurt and confusion came across really well. A few lines really stuck in my mind - 'plastic, purposeless - too familiar for comfort' - that works well. 'She views them (his words) in fragments' - beautifully put. I've got a problem letting events and conversations go - I do exactly what you have Cameron doing - going over and over things until it makes you crazy. I could spent half an hour reviewing this but I'm going to be late for work! Thanks - it was a wonderful read.

hmm! it's full of angst but one heck of a kiss though.
