Alicia & Peter || my love.

720p HD + headphones for this disaster. Voiceovers transcribed in description if you need them.

Well, if any of you recognize the beginning of this video it's because I started this once upon a time nearly two years ago and posted a preview for it but I could never get through it. I don't know, maybe it's too sad and painful but, that's exactly what Alicia & Peter are, to me.

Anyway, the reason this video saw the light of day again is because I'm currently enrolled in a video editing contest and the current round is to "vid something you like, about something you dislike" and I thought of this video. I love Alicia & Peter, they're my OTP of the show, but I hate what they've been through and continue to go through. I hate that they hurt each other so often, but I love the drama and electric scenes it creates for the two of them. Never a dull moment! It's an emotional roller coaster ride that refuses to let you off. Always up and down with these two, I must be some sort of masochist to ship them as much as I do. sigh

Anyway, I haven't even totally decided yet if I'm going to use this as my entry but, it's definitely in the running. Does that idea make any sense to you guys when you watch this video? #help

Peter: I hurt your Mom with other things.
Zach: With someone else...

Alicia: You slept with my best friend.

Peter: When I cheated it didn't mean anything!
Alicia: Well then that was a waste, because when I cheated it did!

Peter: That's what this is about, isn't it? You and Will.

Will: Then punch me.

Alicia: What do I want? I want a happy life.

Peter: I've fallen in love with my wife again.

Alicia: They used to be married. They liked each other. They forgot, that they were supposed to hate each other.

Peter: I loved you. I still love you.

Alicia: I don't know Peter... Love is a word that is so exhausted, I wish it meant something to me.
