You know something is seriously up when you start getting sympathy from the former vengeance demon. Not that Anya could not have her nice moment, it was just usually when she did they were so short and littered with backwards insults it was hard to really appreciate them

I decided to check up on Dawn. Words couldn't express how relieved I was that she was ok. I decided not to ask her anything about her running away act; I knew why she'd done it and that was enough. I'm sure she didn't need me piling guilt on top of her grief.
"H-hey, Dawnie," I said, tapping on the door, "it's me, Tara. Can I come in, sweetie?"

I nearly jump when Tara enters the room. I was not really expecting her but I was guess I was happy she was here.

"Hey Tara." I said suddenly realizing she was probably mad at me for running away. She was really the last person I wanted to hurt when I did this but I was certain she was the person I hurt the most.

“How are you doing?” I asked taking Spikes poem and sticking it away. She might not understand, heck I was not even sure if I understood.

"I-I'm fine, Dawnie." I sat down on the bed next to her. "I saw you having some dinner with Anya. That must have been, um, interesting," I smiled. "How are you feeling?" I asked gently. "I mean, did it - did your little, um, adventure" - I didn't want to say running away - "help you at all? Did it make you feel better?" If her 24 hours away had soothed her grief even a little, I couldn't be mad at all. I just hated seeing her hurt.

"No." I said and shook my head. It really didn't make me feel better, but it did not make me feel worse. "I guess I just needed to get away." I looked at my hair and check it for split ends.

"Not better, not worse, just different. Sorry I did not mean to make you worry. I did not do anything horribly exciting though, saw Spike and well.. he was typical Spike." I roll my eyes than smile at Tara. "Can't expect much from a vampire I guess." I than think of Xander and how mad he was about Spike.

"Not that he did anything to hurt me,.. well no physically, just was a jerk."
