Summary: Post - BtVS S6 / AtS S3.
Cordy sees the newest vamp with a soul.
When Cordelia Chase became a higher being, she didn't believe that there would be anything out there that could still shock her.
Then she saw him.
Spike. William the Bloody, fighting for the restoration of his soul. But then the reason for his quest became known to her, so she refused to be impressed.
But, she was intrigued. So she watched him, as he struggled with madness, sought to free himself from evil's control, until finally he became his own man again.
And she couldn't help falling just a little bit in love with him.
Her tears flowed when he died to save the world.
