Here's drabble Four.

Aziraphale tries to avoid reading Shakespeare. It reminds him of things he'd rather forget.

Romeo and Juliet, especially.

For what could the Capulets and Montagues be but Heaven and Hell? Romeo's banishment reminds him uncomfortably of Crowley's Fall.

There was no happy ending for the lovers.

But Crowley looks at him with love in his eyes (though he cannot say the words) and swears that he will never let his angel come to harm.

Romeo and his Juliet had no happy ending, but if Aziraphale has anything to say about it, he and Crowley will have theirs.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

I think a recurring theme in my GO fics will be that Crowley, being a demon, can't actually say the words "I love you". He loves Aziraphale, but isn't capable of saying it.

Review, please. I like to know if anyone actually reads this.
