whatever you do don’t think about amy and gina growing closer over these months jake and rosa are in jail, amy approaching gina first since she knows gina is in to rosa, even well in to carrying a boyle cousin’s child, she has studied the way gina looks at her, the hard edges of her cold face would melt and soften in to admiration and gina just pulls her by the hand in to the supply closet, slams the door dramatically (like how every time she enters a room, amy notes) and engulfs her in the biggest hug and this is the first time anyone has really held amy other than jake, and she’s in shock but she drapes her arms over gina’s shoulders and they cry and they cry and cry together as they get everything out of their system and this has become their daily routine, meeting in the supply closet every day as therapy. gina promising that amy won’t have to wait 15 years for jake, amy encouraging gina to announce her feelings for rosa as soon as they get them out and they grew so close that gina even made amy a mix cd (and amy smiled, another indication that gina had definitely spent all her time with jake growing up) and the first song is somewhere only we know by keane, amy frowned when she put it on in the car, seeing as it’s not gina’s taste, but when she heard the lyrics she started sobbing, the words were so relevant to what they were going through and the somewhere only they knew they went to so they could cope and those are the same words they blare in the car together, they sing at the top of their lungs on drunken nights, the same words amy is softly and timidly singing to gina as she squeezes amy’s cold hand in pain when she’s in labor, amy being the only person who could push her through it, resulting in gina making her new baby girl’s middle name “amy” and the little girl becomes a distraction for both of them, a cute little happy distraction with gina’s big eyes to hold them over until the loves of their lives return
