Characters: Giles, Ethan
Setting: Pre-Buffy
Word count: 100
"I promise."
"You say that with conviction, almost as though you mean it."
"Giles, you have to learn to trust me."
"Shall I count the ways, Ethan? You promise, then you do as you please. No more magic. I'm serious."
"Yes, dear boy, you've become boringly so. I'll put away my toys." He put his hand on his heart, "Girl Guide's honor."
Giles hoped that'd be the end of it. But, of course, it wasn't.
There were conversations, then shouting and slammed doors. Reconciliations and betrayals. Drinking and sulking.
What could there be then? There was one last word. Goodbye.
