Spoilers: season 7
Disclaimer:None of these characters are mine. I borrowed them from the nice men at WB and ME and Joss Whedon and anyone else they belong to.
Dedication: To my gorgeous fiance. I'm sorry for the rubbish phone calls :-)
NB: This is based on a song by the Indigo Girls can't remember which one i'm afraid.

"Hi Giles" the voice on the phone line greeted him
"Buffy! What a lovely surprise. how are you?"
"Not bad. Same old stuff ya know"
"Yes I know" He replied amusment carring down the phone line as both considered how silly that statment was coming from her.
There was a pause on the line as they both considered what to say next.
"Hows Dawn? The others?"
"Fine. Don't see alot of Anya these days after the non-wedding but apart from that. Fine"
"YesIt was a shame about that. Poor girl but what will be will be."
"Yeah.."Buffy replied tailing off and allowing the pause to return.
"Hows the museum"
"Good, good. The people are nice, don't see much of them out of work though...they wouldn't understand."
"...No they wouldn't" Another pause.
"Well it was nice to talk to you but I should go."
"Bye Buffy"
"Bye Giles"

As they hung up they both cursed themselves for the things they wished they'd said, should have said. But it was so hard to find the connection with all this time and distance between them. There was always next time.
