AN1: This piece is just an experiment in style for me, both in writing
from the viewpoint of only one particular character, and the format I use
to
tell the story. Those who know my work will see it's a bit different to my
usual stuff. Does it work? If not, why not? Anyway, thank you for reading.

-----------------------------------------
It was so sudden - I hardly felt it. I just saw blood on your T-shirt and
then - nothing.
Oh, how I miss you.
*
I knew you loved me, but I had no real idea. I saw how you fell too, down
into a despair that so nearly killed the world. I just never realised you
loved me quite that much.
Thank Heaven for Xander.
*
And all the time you were in England, I watched over you, just like an
invisible Giles. I don't think the witches were aware of me, or if they
were
they never said.
And now you're back, and once again the world's about to end.
*
And so it seems it's time to fall in love again. I don't blame you - half
a
year is long enough to be alone. But Willow, oh Willow, how could you?
That
girl?
A Kennedy?
*
Willow, I will wait for you, however long it takes, though I'm so lonely
here.
Think of me sometimes, and if you do, Willow, weep for me.
