Couples Countdown Nr.6

Christina & Owen
(Grey's Anatomy)




Current status: Together, I think
The Beginning: Owen inturbated a man with a pen and pulled an icicle out of Christina's belly. They kissed and he left, going back to Iraq.
Course of the Relationship: When Owen came back, he was a changed man, traumatized by the war. He didn't really recognize Christina, but he then fell in love with her. He didn't want to be with her because he thought he was too damaged, but they couldn't stay apart either. They kissed, but then one morning, he choked her because he thought she was an enemy. He apologized, they slept together, but then separated because Christina was too scared. They admitted they loved each other, but couldn't stay together.
The End & Future: In the season 5 finale, Christina got Owen to see his mum. Owen asked Christina if they could try again and she said yes.

When I fell in love with them: I think it must have been when they kissed for the second time, in the alley. HOT! And dramatic. And sad.
Why I like them: They belong together, but can't be. They love each other, but his trauma gets in the way. He tries to be a better person for her, she tries to get over his mistakes. It's just a very "real" relationship: They're not perfect, but they're perfect for each other.
Best Moment: The kiss on the vent.
Saddest Moment: After they had sex, Christina is scared Owen might fall asleep and they break up.

Why Nr.6? Their passion is amazing but it's a really complicated relationship.
Miscellaneous: The shortest love story yet (only season 5), but already number 6. Christina is also the only person mentioned twice on this list.

Current Mood: Happy
