Summary
“Josh.” She enunciates carefully, keeping her voice calm and quiet as she slips the gear shifter into park. Annie’s words from this morning echo in her mind: Just tell him how you feel, as if they existed on a plane where that were even possible. Still, if she’s brave she just might be able to get there in a way that doesn’t make her want to bang her skull against a wall, by talking in tighter and tighter circles around it.
“What’s wrong?” Josh asks, already almost vibrating with a concern that’s ready to be churned into action. He cranes back to check on the kids; Maddie huffs out a breath and turns her face further into the car upholstery, but neither of the kids wakes.
“What exactly do you think love is?” The question is directed at him but Donna’s gaze is directed at her hands, still grasping the steering wheel of the rental car at ten and two.
*** a happy ending fix-it follow-up to all i ever wanted (was a life in your shape) aka one of the many possible universes; in which, Donna pulls that car over and tells Josh how she feels and then there's a lot of mutual pining across the midwest ***

Vogue have come to do their 73 Questions interview with Congresswoman Donna Moss-Lyman
- -
“You’ve mentioned your husband a few times, former White House Chief of Staff to President Matthew Santos, Joshua Lyman. When did you first meet him?”
“In a campaign office in 1998, New Hampshire.”
“And what was your first impression of him?”“Incredibly disorganised.”
“Did that impression last for long?”
“I’ve known him for thirty-odd years, married for more than half of that time, and he is still frazzled at all times. It was my job for a long time to keep him in line, but since we’ve been together, I’ve just left him to orbit me with his chaos.”

Summary
The room is quaint, if a bit tacky, one sad sprig of holly greeting them at the door. A fine representation of how she feels this Christmas.
// prompt: there was only one bed! trope + holiday season (bonus points if they’re snowed in somewhere together)
