“I wish we could stay like this forever.”

So much of this week has been new – their first long vacation, no work stress or drama creeping in, two rings heavy on her left ring finger – but his eye roll is familiar and sexy and warms her to the bone, hotter than the sun could ever hope to be.

“Pretty sure you’ve said that before,” he shrugs, smirking at her as she returns his eye roll.

OR – Tim and Lucy honeymoon at the beach.

“Hailey,” he whispers. He’s said her name what feels like a thousand times today, but none has made her have to reach out to touch him immediately as much as this one.

She runs her hands up and down his back, over memorized muscles that have kept her safe on long days, kept her warm over long nights. When his gaze falls on her, heavy-lidded, she knows he’s right.

They can do this. They can figure this out.

OR – Hailey and Jay realize they’ve been saying the words all along in their own way. Post 8x11.

Okay so I wrote a long post about trauma responses and the importance of validation in response to tonight’s episode. I’ve seen some not so helpful comments about Hailey’s behavior and that got my counselor brain running! So, I wanted to share a little bit of psychoeducation!

The image that undid me? The moment that defined the episode for me?

Well, if you must know...
