__Surprised__
By Andrea
Flipping through the stack of mail, Giels spied a red
envelope. Plucking it out of the pile, he gazed at the
front, smiling as he recognized the familiar
handwriting.
Tearing it open, he pulled out a small card decorated
with beautiful flowers. Opening it, he read,
" Giles,
Happy Valentine's Day!
Surprised to hear from me, aren't you?
Don't be. I remember all my friends on Valentine's
Day. And since you're my friend....
Well, anyway, your ex-Watcher-in-crime just stepped
in, and if he sees me not working, well..... lets just
say he reacts the same way that you used to when I'd
bring back overdue library books.
So, once again Happy Valentine's Day and if you eat
any candy make sure it isn't tainted. (J/K)
Love, Cordelia "
Touched, Giles carefully put the card back into the
envelope and put it in the small drawer of his desk.
The secret one.
Where a tape, an printout and now a card all took up
residence.
