He says they wont be a problem for the show.
But Danny doesn't believe him. Danny can see the longing in his eyes, the sparkle that is nearly always present when the topic is Harriet.
He knows it.
He knows Danny's got his number. He's in love with Harriet and he can't fall out of love, no matter how hard he tries.
"We're so screwed."
"I know."
And he does know, with every fiber of his being. Harriet is the one for him. She is the end all be all for him. She just doesn't know it.
She doesn't know how his heart plummeted when he saw the email. He knew right away. He knew from the first word.
Matthew.
She called him Matthew, not Matt, not Matty.
There are only two situations where she calls him Matthew; when they're making love, and when she is gravely serious.
It could only be the second one.
Damn the 700 Club. He hates it. She knew how he feels about the show and she went on it anyway.
It all traces back to the 700 Club.
He now has another reason to hate it more.
He's about to go take a shower.
It's 100 degrees in September because there's a hole in the sky.
He says they wont be a problem for the show.
Danny doesn't believe him, nobody does. They all see it for what it is.
Everybody but her.
AN: I'm so sorry I'm missing. This is going out to my readers in the FRIENDS fandom. High School is crazy and I've got major writer's block. I wanted to write badly tonight but the moment I saw the blank document I lost my muse once more. I love Studio 60 so much, but I'm terrified to write fanfiction about a show that is so incredibly well written. So here's to trying to revive this small but dedicated fandom. Here's to a show that should have lasted longer. Here's to Matt and Harriet.
