BtVS Drabble Prompt: Elbow
It was hanging in the closet, like he might come back for it any moment.
Brown and green, worn leather patches at the elbow - it instantly took her back to high school.
Back when she was hiding her calling from her mother – if only her mother was still here.
Back when she was sighing and crying over Angel –it had been months since they’d even spoken.
Back when life seemed so hard – but she’d been so protected.
She boxed the coat up for Goodwill. There was no point keeping it. Giles wasn’t coming back.
You can never go back.
