"But I really don't think it's fair to all the others," Willow
protested.

"Oh, come on Dear," Joyce said, "surely there must be one?"

"No, how can I choose just one?" Willow looked up into Joyce's eyes,
pleading. "They're all so beautiful."

Joyce met her gaze then looked back at the puppies in the pet shop
window. Their tiny little faces. The pleading look in their puppy-dog
eyes. "I know, Dear." In the short time that she had known Willow, and
in the even shorter time that they had been lovers, she knew why she was
so in love with the young Wicca. Such purity and innocence, and the
heart of an angel. She smiled back into those beautiful greem eyes.

Willow didn't take her eyes off Joyce. She took hold of her hand
and squeezed it gently. Joyce squeezed back. "Besides, I think it's
cruel," Willow told her. "Asking me to choose a favorite color is like
asking me to choose one of those puppies."
