Lilah put a bad taste in my mouth and left me in a foul mood. I really did not think anything could make me feel better, did not think anything could pull me out of my funk, but I vastly underestimated my boyfriend. I could still feel the soft kisses he had placed on my neck long after he had fallen asleep from sheer exhaustion. He was a bit

I rolled over waking up slightly and took in a deep breath. I loved the smell of Jenny's hair. Wait, that wasn't Jenny's hair. That was... it was just her pillow. I blinked slowly and slowly gazed around the room. Jenny wasn't there. Wondering where it was that she had gotten to after such an exhausting night. Flipping on a lamp that stood on my nightstand I pulled a robe around myself and went to go find my love

His hair was mussed and his eyes squinted in the light. Giles looked exhausted standing there looking at me. I had a feeling he wanted nothing more than to go back to sleep and to take me with him. He was also concerned and I knew despite his most basic wants he would patiently wait for me to explain to him what I was doing, why I was acting this way.

“Nothing.” I finally answered wiping the obnoxious tears off my cheek. I hated this tendency of mine to get sentimental. I never got this way before my death and now I often found myself fighting hard not to cry over the silliest things. “I am sorry I could not sleep so I decided to catch up on what happened to you. I did not realize what Angelus..” I started to cry again feeling stupid and wishing I could stop.

I knelt down next to the chair that she was sitting in and took her hands in mine. "Nothing?" I watched her sweet face, the tiny trails that tears had left down her cheeks.

I am sorry I could not sleep so I decided to catch up on what happened to you. I did not realize what Angelus..

"Oh." I said solemnly, looking back to the book that she had tossed on the table. I wished she hadn't read that. I had written that quite soon after being rescued and skipped over no details. "Jenny," I brushed her hair away from her cheek and left my hand on her neck. "Don't cry, please?" I leaned forward and kissed her softly. "That was such a long time ago." I stood her up and held her in my arms. "I made it out alright in the end." I said kindly.

Giles was going to comfort me to the very end and I knew this. After all he probably had a hard time with other people being in pain, he just wanted to protect me. He could not protect me though, not really. There were things I would have to do and the more I knew what Angel had did to Giles the easier these things would be.

“Yes I suppose we both came out all right.” I said pulling out of Giles embrace and looking him in the eye trying to relax. I touched his cheek with the back of my hand as my other hand rested on his heart. “What does not kill us can only make us stronger.” I said and than realized the oddness of my statement. “Well you know what I mean.” I leaned in and kissed him softly on his lips before pulling back.

“Ok I think I am better. Want to go back to bed? I know you are tired and this.. well this can wait.” I had a feeling in the morning he might have some words regarding me reading his personal diaries. Now though I was certain words were the last thing he had.
