What do you say to your the woman you planned to marry when you come back after four months of being gone? Hell if I knew. I'd spent the entire drive from the hotel to Buffy and Spike's trying to come up with some kind of explanation that would pass the questions she would have. If she even had questions for me. I'd left without giving her a chance ( Read more... )

Buffy and Spike were out for the night doing....well, whatever it was that they do. I think Buffy went on patrol and Spike decided to tag along or something. I heard them arguing about the dog before they left for the night. I only keep track of her when she's at work, I can't be expected to know where she is when it's after work time. And you wouldn't believe how many people expected me to ( ... )

I wasn't sure what to say or do when she opened the door. For a moment I thought she was going to hug me. The light in her eyes, that light I lived for, it was there, and then it was gone. I'd hurt her in a way I never wanted too. Who was I to judge Dad for the things he did, when I was the one to hurt Cordelia ( ... )

"I didn't get hurt by James. I got hurt by my fiance." I pointed out to him, raising an eyebrow in his direction. Getting kidnapped by James? So not very fun. But he didn't really hurt me and in the end I wondered if I was payback or just a bribe to convince Grace to start working there or whatever. Not that it mattered, that was months ago and I hardly thought about it anymore. But Connor? I had thought about him everyday.

"You covered it in the letter to me?" I glared at him. He was lucky there was nothing that could be used as a projectile within my reach because I would throw it at his head right now. He covered it in a letter. He did what he thought was best for everyone and he didn't even think to talk to me about it? I wasn't like Angel and Faith and Harry and Spike and everyone else who just ran around doing whatever seemed like a good idea at the time. Why couldn't he trust me ( ... )

All right, I deserved that. I winced a little at the words and the tone of voice. Mostly it was knowing it was the truth. Cordelia was strong, and it would take a lot to hurt her. Only the people she loved had that power, and I'd used it to wound her ( ... )
