"How many times do I have to tell you, Harold, I'm just not attracted to you in that way." Then they proceed to have this adorable yet intense discussion in *very* close quarters.
I rolled about on my chair, laughing! Then I said, I know someone in Tennessee who'll be laughing at this! (is that 'LJ' or what?? LOL)
How much do I love that Andy comes to Harold before doing anything? They share pretty much everything now. I'm not sure I agree with Harold's advice here, but I love the whole "you're not in this alone" thing.
Also the "I could say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree" -- that Andy is like Ephram, he gets angry about things that aren't really what he's angry about. That shows Harold is watching Andy intently and figuring him out. :-)
I think Harold's advice was that the right time for Andy to tell is past, now it's up to Madison. My feeling is that Madison is now in the same position she would have been in if she had gone to a different doctor in the first place yet decided not to tell Ephram. In each case (real and hypothetical) she has the right to tell him at some point (for instance, she will need to if she puts the child up for adoption, because of rights of the father). The only difference is that Andy knew, and she will have to decide whether putting an extra burden on Ephram (harming/destroying his relationship with Andy) is worth the rush she'd get from vengeance on Andy.
I really need to write some fanfic that is not Everwood but I find that so hard at the moment! As my last one was post-first-kiss angst (have you read it yet?) it's a good thing this next one (popped into my head today!) is pure fluff. So far. (Well, they need some happiness.) I'll... it will probably take a few days, who knows, these last ones I've written pretty quickly.
Now I'll need to write my own squee -- later today probably, gotta get back to work.
