"We can't keep this up. What if they find out?"
"They won't find out because we're not broadcasting it to the whole bloody world."
He grabbed the girl around the waist and pulled her close to his body. The leather trench coat he always wore seemed to wrap around the both of them like a cloud of smoke. She tilted her head up to look into his eyes and was instantly lost.
"I remember you once saying that you would never dance with me, that I was beneath you."
"That was back when I still thought he would come back."
"He is never coming back, not when he'll turn evil because of you."
This snapped her out of the trance, and caused her to take a step back. He allowed her to, but kept a loose hold on her waist. She didn't try to pull completely out of his grasp, but allowed him to keep in contact with her.
"Please don't remind me."
Her eyes were downcast and he slightly regretted his previous comment. He knew he had hurt her, but she needed to move forward with her life and forget about the past.
"C'mon luv, why don't we go find ourselves some things to kill and we forget about everything?"
He gave her a quick kiss on the head before releasing her. She gave him a half smile before pulling a wooden object from her pocket.
"Let's go then Spike."
The blonde Vampire followed behind his Slayer. He never told her that he loved her, and she never told him she had feelings for him, yet they both knew that without the other there was always something missing. Ever since Riley left she had never been the same, and he was the only anchor she had to Angel but he wasn't going to be choosy about it. When the time was right he would confess and she would accept him, fangs and all.
