I was bored and I just wanted to write something that took place after "The
Lies My Parents Told Me." I thought of Buffy and Spike talking about what
happened and how things might be when Faith shows up. I don't really know
what is going to happen, just thought I'd write my own version of what
could happen. I also added a little bit of humor in there because I think
we could all use it. Anyway, it's short because I wasn't gonna do much
with this, just something I thought of. I also don't own anything. Feel
free to let me know what ya'll think=)
Chapter 1
It was a quiet night in Sunnydale and Buffy Summers was sitting on her back porch listening to the quiet that she hasn't heard in a long time. Tears were forming in her eyes and slowly streamed down her face. It felt like she hasn't cried in a while, but she felt so hurt and betrayed that she couldn't hold it in any longer. She heard someone behind her and she knew who it was without even looking. "Nice night." Spike said as he sat next to her. "Seems like it's been forever since we've had peace and quiet around here." He said as he looked at her, noticing that she was crying. "Buffy, what's wrong?" He asked her, concerned. She looked down avoiding his gaze.
"Everything." She whispered. Spike nodded.
"Still upset about Giles?" This time she did look up at him.
"He left and this time I don't know if he's coming back." Spike wiped a tear from her face, hating to see her like this.
"You know he'll come back. He wouldn't leave you to fight this thing alone." Buffy shook her head.
"I wouldn't be too sure. I practically told him that I didn't need him anymore. I was just so mad at him for what he did." She looked at Spike with guilt in her eyes. "You know that I had nothing to do with that, right? I didn't know." Spike nodded.
"I never thought you did, love." He told her.
"I just can't believe that with everything going on right now that Giles would side with Robin to get me away so he could try to kill you. I mean there are more important things to deal with and he was just thinking about revenge the whole time." She took a breath and continued. "I know how hard it is to lose your mother and I do feel bad for him, but it's not like killing you will bring her back. I never understood the whole vengeance thing, it's just stupid." Spike nodded when she finished.
"Even though the timing is not so great right now, I do understand why he did what he did. Doesn't mean that I like him though." Buffy nodded and they just sat in silence until Spike spoke again. "You shouldn't really be mad at the Watcher, Buffy. He was only doing what he thought was right." Buffy gave a short laugh.
"Yeah, because trying to get rid of my best fighter is really what's right." Spike looked at her.
"I don't know if I would say that." Buffy took his hand and looked into his blue eyes.
"You are my best fighter Spike and you know that I need you." Spike looked at her and knew that she did need him. He just nodded.
"Well, some good did come out of all this at least. Bloody trigger doesn't work anymore and I can finally forget about that damn song." Buffy smiled.
"Yeah, thank god for that." He returned her smile and stood up.
"I'm gonna head back in, getting kinda hungry." He walked back into the house and after a few seconds Buffy stood and followed him in.
