AN: Sorry, honey, not paired, but possibly a precursor?
LOL And it seems I am breaking my own rule, it's technically AtS not BtVS.
Willow rose. She was tired, he noted, the bone-weary sort of tired that no amount of sleep could cure. Her pain-filled, haunted eyes captured and held his gaze, and he knew.
"It's Buffy," he stated, saving her from having to say the words.
She nodded, her face crumpling.
He didn’t remember moving—wrapping her in his arms. She held rigid for a moment, and he started to loosen his hold, but then she was holding him, her fingers bruising, her slight frame shaking as she buried her face against his chest.
They clung together, silent and alone, surrounded by noise.
