What keeps you up at night? [148]
Not many things keep me up at night any more…
When Willow and I were in Sunnydale there was almost always something going on that would need our attention; it didn't matter what time of day it was. When Buffy died, Dawn's nightmares would keep me up with worry; I wanted to be there if she needed me.
"Your shirt…"
My own nightmares have started to go away, it's been so many years since I've been back.
"Tara, baby…please…don't leave me..."
But there are nights when I wake up in a cold sweat after remembering the morning I died. I can almost feel the chill that seeped into my body as the bullet pierced my flesh, my blood pouring and soaking my shirt as my life slowly slipped away. Willow's voice sometimes echo's in my ears…
Just thinking about that gives me the chills.
There are times that I think to call Spike or someone that I knew back in Sunnydale, but I never do… Someday I'll be able to just pick up that phone.
