You know, I didn't really cry when Tony disappeared--when he was kidnapped by terrorists, I mean. I was definitely terrified, and there were very bad days, but mostly I just focused on the job, and tried to keep things together.

But when they said they'd found him? I lost it. I honestly think that if it were physically possible to bawl my eyes out, I would have. Tony even noticed when he got off the plane. I had to make a crack about how I hated job hunting.

I think part of it was the relief, and part of it was realizing just how much I missed him. And that's before he and I were ever a couple. So if you look pathetic now, I had to look even worse then.
