Why this must be read:

This glorious little piece was written for the

ficalbum challenge. There are spoilers for both series, as well as the very last episode.

This fic details Annie's reflections on Sam's actions throughout the two series. All those little crazy moments that Annie doesn't comment on in the show are now laid bare with sparse prose and to the tune of a breaking heart.

Sam Tyler. Well, Annie's not sure if he's crazy, but he's got his hand on her heart. (She wasn't pretending to read her psychology textbooks, at university.)

There's something sweet about him. Even if it's just insanity.

(Annie falls asleep thinking about those fingers tracking the beating of her heart. In her dreams, he never mentions a girlfriend.)
