I haven't written a story in years, so I don't expect to get very good reviews. But good or not, I would appreciate any advice you guys can give me. Sorry if there are any mistakes. Thank you.
Summary: This is a one-shot and a song fic. It takes place after Andy dies, and Prue is visiting his grave. It's Prue's memories, thoughts and feelings.

Song: "I love you" – Sarah Mclachlan
I have a smile
Stretched from ear to ear
See you walking down the road
Prue entered the cemetery. It was a sunny day, hardly a cloud in the sky. Despite the beautiful day, the graveyard was quiet and eerie. She made her way through the rows of graves to Andy's tombstone. It read:
Here lies Andy Trudeau
Beloved friend and co-worker
1971-1999
R.I.P
Prue placed a bouquet of flowers on Andy's grave. She sat on the ground and began to talk to him.
"Do you remember when we used to make excuses to get out of our houses and meet at the park? And how I used to sneak you into the house? You know, I found out that Phoebe used to eavesdrop on us when I brought you up to my room," she said, allowing herself a brief smile at the memories.
We meet at the lightsI stare for a while
The world around us disappears
It's just you and me
On my island of hope
A breath between us could be miles
Let me surround you
A sea to your shore
Let me be the calm you seek
"And then we found each other again… And we got back together… And it was perfect-" she broke off. Her nose stung. There was a lump in her throat and tears began to fall. Sadness welled inside of her.
But every time I'm close to youThere's too much I can't say
And you just walk away
And I forgot
To tell you I love you
And the night's too long
I'm cold here
Without you
I grieve in my condition
For I cannot find the words to say
I need you so
"I wanted to tell you about my power. I really did. I wanted to tell you everything. About all of us. But… I couldn't. It was too dangerous. And that broke us apart…" she trailed off.
A pause.
Then she burst, "Why did that stupid reporter have to find out? If he hadn't told you about my power, you wouldn't have died! And if you had just listened to me and stayed outside, then you would still be here!" Anger swelled.
Prue snatched a flower from the earth surrounding Andy's grave and tore at it viciously.
Oh and every timeI'm close to you
There's too much I can't say
And you just walk away
And I forgot
To tell you
I love you
And the night's too long
I'm cold here
Without you
"I'm sorry… It's not your fault. Any of it." Sorrow and regret replaced the anger.
"I wish you were here again. You said it was your destiny, though, to die…"
I grieve in my conditionFor I cannot find the words to say
I need you so
Prue got up and walked away.
