Aww cute

I loved the strength of Mary here and the tender way she understood Matthew and his disposition, especially when referencing Sybil's death and the nightmares. That seemed to hint at so much about the ying and yang quality of their beautiful relationship and marriage. Bringing George the little dog was a spot on perfect touch.
Oh the determination, the fiery passion of love and heartache all walking a tightrope together that filled this story was fantastic.

This was so lovely! Thank you! :)

A very touching tale. Thank you very much for adding to the chronicles where Matthew lives.

What a lovely story. This is how I imagine Matthew and Mary's life should have been.

Awwww, this was so special, thank you for this lovely gift. And I quite agree, I think part of why they were so blissfully happy in their marriage even with all the fights was because they'd been so much apart, and through so much pain. This is lovely, and I'm always glad to read about my OTP :)

Thank you again!

This little snapshot of what their married life could have been is so sweet. Thanks for sharing with us.

Very well done. The emotions are so tangible and the relief that flows through all of them at the end is lovely.
