They sat across from each other, Spike making his confession as if it was going to change anything at all.
“I want you to know I did save you. Not when it counted, of course, but after that…dozens of times, lots of different ways…something faster, more clever. Every night I saved you.” He could barely look her in the eye, his feeling of failure still so hauntingly fresh in his mind.
