Crowley: What are your adjectives?
Aziraphale: …You mean my pronouns?
Crowley: No, I know what your pronouns are! What are your adjectives?
Aziraphale: …I dunno. What are yours?
Crowley: Noisy and chaotic!
Aziraphale: I’ve never had something go from making no sense to making complete sense so quickly.

So, there's that theory that SOMETHING happened in 1941. Something that caused Crowley and Aziraphale to be awkward to each other in the 60s and make Aziraphale say:
What if in 1941, when they're in the bookshop after The Bullet Catch and after their little talk we seen in S2, Crowley asks Aziraphale to run away with him to Alpha Centauri for the first time????
Crowley may of suggest they run away together so they don't have another close call. Next time someone more competent than Furfur may show up or someone from Heaven might catch them.
At this point in their story, Aziraphale would not be down to run away and abandoned The Bookshop and his Angelic duties. They'd probably end up fighting and Crowley would storm off and then they'd barley talk.
Hence, why they're so awkward in the Holy Water hand off
It also explains Aziraphale's reaction to the other times Crowley asks to run away together.
In S1, at the band stand, Crowley mentions going off together. To me Aziraphale's first reaction always seemed weird to me, but not if he's heard this before.
It could also explain why Crowley was so quick to apologize to Aziraphale after the fight. Last time this happened they didn't talk for years and being on a tight deadline, Crowley apologize immediately to get Aziraphale to run away
And in S2, when Crowley brings up Alpha Centauri, I think Aziraphale probably would consider going off together at that point.
Because, being asked to 'go off together' by the demon you JUST realized you're in love with, would be to fast for Aziraphale. It's why when they talk in the 60s, Aziraphale suggests:
Aziraphale is literally saying "Maybe take me to dinner first before asking me to run away with you" !!!!
And they were probably "dating" after S1, so Aziraphale would be more willing to accept Crowley's offer at tge end of S2 if The Metaron hadn't offered him the Archangel position. Hell, Aziraphale kinda flips the script and asks Crowley to go off with him, but to Heaven.
I'm pretty sure we'll get another 1941 flashback in S3 and I hope I'm right. Thoughts???

Good Omens Song of the Day
When you run against the grain
Every step is hard to make
The heat it takes its toll
When there's nowhere safe to go
Lyrics
And it's slipping through your hands
As the weight comes crashing down
And the pain is hard to take
As your world it starts to break
When you run against the grain
Every step is hard to make
The heat it takes its toll
When there's nowhere safe to go
Well you ran against the grain
And there's only you to blame
And this life takes its toll
When you're a face that no one knows
And it's slipping through your hands
As the weight comes crashing down
And the pain is hard to take
As your world it starts to break

I just love this scene from season one so much. They’re talking on the bench after Crowley “delivered, well not ‘delivered’ delivered”, the antichrist. Aziraphale is confidently declaring his side will ultimately win the war between Heaven and Hell.
But then Crowley begins pointing out all the things Aziraphale won’t get anymore if Heaven does indeed win. I think this conversation requires a little translating though:
“No more fascinating little restaurants where they know you.” ➡️ No more dates for us to go on to spend time with one another.
“No gravlax in dill sauce.” ➡️ No more human indulgences we’ve become so comfortable in consuming.
“No more old bookshops.” ➡️ No more safe space for us to be together.
“We’ve only got 11 years, and then it’s all over. We have to work together.” ➡️ Our time together is limited, I need you.
Then they proceed to drink themselves into a stupor because they cannot handle the unbearable weight of possibly losing one another.
