Usually she would drag herself from the mattress and make a hasty escape, despite the shadows under her eyes and the trembling of her limbs.

Great imagery, especially the trembling.

The tangled sheets were a mocking reminder that all she was ever going to be was borrowed heat, and he threw them to the floor, slept on cold stone.

Now, as he stares at the ceiling and waits in vain for her to slam open his door, he wishes he hadn’t been quite so hasty.

Ouch, and lovely.

Angsterific! Love "all she was ever going to be was borrowed heat" and Spike sleeping penitentially on the floor.

The poor darlings, hurting each other so!
