"Rest" by Chris (PG-13)

Fandom: BUFFY
Pairing: Spike/Buffy
Length: Dabble/Short fic
Author on LJ: Unknown
Author Website: Chris' archived stories on All About Spike
Why this must be read:

I know, again, a short fic, but this is a deep and intense little moment set immediately after Beneath You. And this one has some lines that just stick with you:


"She is overwhelmed. She should say something, but what possible response can there be? Words are the bane of her existence. They slip and slide, boomerangs of intent, casting accidental meaning in their wake."
