This is a perfect example of what I love about writing ML fic. There are so many opportunities to slip into the moments between.

My very first attempts at writing ML was to fill in those pesky commercial gaps. I love, love, love, what you've done here Lucky.
Filled in that pesky gap just before the camera rolled.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!

it appears that I have been reading to many children's books, Eloise at the Plaza in particular. :snicker:

I absolutely love this. Has anyone tackled those last several hours before Beth and Mick first meet before? I'm not sure! If not, it's about time! :snicker:

This fits so perfectly with the tone of the show, that I can see it actually being written and shot for the first episode, but edited for time before the episode aired. Well, done, my dear. :notworthy: :notworthy:

Shame on me, I have read this so many times and never commented. I looove how you point out the details of their feelings and their relationship in this little rendez-vous!

Beth is ready to move on and be swept off her feet by a gorgeous, mysterious man..and oh my god, poor Josh..

But what a prologue to Moonlight!

:flowers: :flowers:

Visiting old challenges. Poor Josh unfortunately for him he was not her Guardian Angel. I do love this peek into Beth and Josh just before Mick

Bravo, Lucky! :notworthy: :rose: I love everything you've done with the food -- Beth is spicy, while Josh is bland and predictable. The fortunes they received are perfect.

The inclusion of a certain pork bun-loving professor was a nice touch.

Thank you! :hearts:

I love this one! So nice to have it pop back up so I could reread it. Beth's on her way and Josh has a tummyache. Oh, deeear... that pretty much says it all right there. :eyeroll:

Thanks for the lovely new comments! You know, reading this over again, and the comments as well, may have given me a little idea.... not making any wild promises, but hey, you never know.

Gosh, it's been a long time since I read this one! I love this little peek at Beth's and Josh's relationship before Mick entered the picture (well, at least overtly entered it... I love Beth's little prayer to her guardian angel... and it looks like her hand WAS guided to pick the appropriate fortune cookie!).

I could have sworn... I was so sure that I had never read this one before. And then, there's my comment. :blushing:

Glad you bumped this, Alle! It was like reading it for the first time. Beth needed something more that what Josh was offering - she just wasn't sure what, yet. She'll find out soon!
