A/N: My thoughts on the last scene in "What if".
She sees it in the way his eyes slightly widen. It is such a subtle change in expression. She shouldn't be able to detect it in the rearview mirror. But she does. And her heart stops and it hurts and she feels like she can't breathe.
"Please, remember me. Remember me", a repeating phrase in her head.
And then she hears her name. "Daisy", he breathes softly. He's confused, she can hear it in his voice. But she can also discern recognition. He remembers. He remembers her.
And suddenly her heart starts again and a sob erupts from deep inside her before she can stop it. All the tension leaves her body and she just slumps forward, covering her face with her hands.
"Daisy", she hears again. Still unsure, still disoriented. Concerned. She hears him spinning around and then hands are on her face. Warm, strong, big hands. Hands that she trusts when there is nothing to trust anymore.
And then the tears begin to fall. Running down her face while his hands try to wipe them away. A gently voice in the dark as she cries. "Daisy".
