Will
She looked up into his face and smiled, grey eyes twinkling.
" Always." she whispered, and he kissed her. He heard a loud thump behind her and glanced up.
He crashed back into reality.
Will gasped and woke up sweating, sheets twisted around his legs. Shaking he forced his breathing to slow, and his heartbeat to calm. In. Out. In. Out. I have to stop, he thought fiercely. But he knew he couldn't. Even now, after not seeing her for a week, he could still smell the lavender scent that clung to her, could still see that little dimple that peeked out of the corner of her mouth when she grinned. By the Angel. She was beautiful. He sighed and ran his hands through his hair in frustration. Why Tess? Why? I love you. I have never stopped loving you. But that doesn't matter now, he thought bitterly.
You can't love me.
I can't have you, and I never will.
