Summary: A set of drabbles, inspired the Evanescence song "Hello." How is Wesley coping without Lilah?

Pairing: Wes/Lilah

Disclaimer: All characters belong to Joss Whedon and ME. I’m just borrowing them. Dammit. The song lyrics belong to Evanescence.

Author's Note: I was stuck on the train listening to the album "Fallen," when I suddenly realised that the song "Hello" could be used to describe how Wesley might be feeling after Lilah died. So, as I've never attempted a drabble before, I thought I'd try that, each drabble being inspired by a line from the song.

Wesley stares out the window, watching storm clouds gathering over LA. He can hear the low rumble of thunder, can feel the electricity crackling in the air. It reminds him of Lilah.

Everything reminds him of Lilah.

She made him tingle and buzz all over.

He remembers seeing her laying dead in front of him even as she whispered over his shoulder.

Sometimes, he thinks he's hopelessly screwed up. Then he thinks everyone else is screwed up.

The really screwed up thing - him and Lilah - is over, but it's what he misses most

She's what he misses most.
