Feedback: Please.
 
 
 

Willow stared at the ceiling in Cordelia's dark living room, mind in too much turmoil for her to be able to sleep.

Cordelia was not what she expected.  Sure she was bitchy at times and tact was still an issue but the visions seemed to have taken some of her edge off. Willow felt bad when Cordelia told her the story on how she got them.  The two girls weren't friends yet, but they were slowly moving towards friendship. They weren't enemies at least.

The change in Angel was amazing after she told him the news about the clause.  He seemed to lighten up a great deal and more relaxed.  He still wanted to work for redemption as she expected, but didn't run back to Sunnydale like she had kind of thought.  He told her that he was happier in LA than Sunnydale.

In Sunnydale he was shoved into a slot of Buffy's boyfriend and was expected to stay in the slot.  In LA he was given more freedom not being stuck in preconceived slots or roles expected of him.  She understood that, being placed in roles herself.

First she was seen at the hacker, being able to do just about anything with a computer. In fact, that was why she was in LA: helping Cordelia with the computer.  Then she was seen as the witch; although, that was modified to bad witch after she started messing up spells.  Spike still complained about being engaged to Buffy and told her to keep her "mojo" away from him.

Willow is sort of glad that she was on Cordelia's couch and not Angel's.  She's learning more about him away from Buffy and her crush on him is getting worse than it ever was in Sunnydale.  He's making it clear that he had moved on from Buffy. The question is whom is he moving on to?  She wants it to be her, but figures its probably Cordelia.
