Why this must be read:

This story is one of my favorites and I was kind of suprised that it hadn't been recced yet. When I want a long satisfying read that still manages to have plot, this is the one I go to. I'm a sucker for a good chunk of angst, that is resolved well- and has a happy ending.So many fics have Duncan hurting Methos somehow, for whatever reason--be it over the horsemen or over Amanda. This one however, is reversed.

“Can someone love you too much?” Methos asked. “Can you lose yourself in them?”

“Yes, you can,” Cameron replied seriously. “It’s a form of emotional abuse. Did he try to keep you away from your friends?”

“No,” Methos said, shaking his head.

“Did he try to keep you from doing things you liked to do?”

“No.”

“Did he tell you how to think or feel?”

“No.”

“Why did you feel like you were getting lost?” Cameron asked.

“I’ve never been loved that powerfully,” Methos said. “He loved me with everything he was. I was afraid he wanted me to love him that completely, and that I wouldn’t be able to do it.”

“Don’t you think he thought you loved him just enough? That however much you loved him was just the right amount?” Cameron questioned.
