Spike and Buffy had slept together. She never would have thought that she would find comfort in a demon without a soul. She just couldn't leave that house fast enough. The fear of Spike telling someone about this grew inside her and almost made her throw up.
When she arrived home she quickly went to her room fast in hopes of avoiding her sister, Willow, or Tara. How could she ever face them? When she reached her room and fell on her bed. Surprisingly, she fell asleep quickly, but in her dreams she only focused on that night. Hours later she awoke to the sound of angry voices.
"How could you Willow?" Tara asked with so much rage.
"Willow and her magic," Buffy said to herself.
Buffy walked slowly down the stairs avoiding the yelling in the semi-clean living room.
"Hey Amy, what happened?" Buffy asked.
It took only took that certain look to tell her what had happened. Tara had found out about Willow using magic to bring Amy back to a person. Now to top it all off Willow now has someone else with lots more power to influence her to continue on her destructive path with magic. Buffy agreed with Tara more than Willow because magic is way more dangerous than Willow was realizing. Right now it was like a drug to her and it had caused her to lose the love of her life. That couldn't even make her stop.
"When are you going to realize that you are addicted and that if you don't stop soon you will never stop?" Tara yelled.
But even before Willow could take a breath Tara was already slamming the door. When Willow came into the kitchen she was trying to hide her tears, but wasn't really doing a very good job. Amy had already made a quiet exit during the fight to avoid any problems.
"Wil, you okay?" Buffy asked sincerely.
"I don't really know and can you believe Tara to say those things to me?" Willow said knowing that Tara was completely right, "I mean really she acts like she knows everything."
After that unfair comment Wil knew what Buffy was thinking because she was thinking it too. She made her way to her room where she had herself a long cry to release all the pent up pain.
Meanwhile, Buffy had her own problems to worry about. She went out for a walk finally wondering about Dawn's whereabouts. School. That thing that she never finished. Well at least that would give her time to think things out without having to worry about all her sisters unnescessary drama. Somehow during her travels she ended up in the one place she thought she didnt want to be. Spike's crypt.
"Oh great, just what I needed," Buffy said sighing to herself.
"Buffy?" a smooth charming voice came from inside, "I didn't expect to see you so soon, but not that I am complaining."
"Oh please believe me nothing will happen like last night! NOT EVER..." she said trying to convince herself that she didn't want him.
Spike frowned a little, but then invited her inside. He had some information about this new demon tribe hanging around near his crypt.
"So what do you purpose we do?" Buffy asked realizing what a stupid question it was.
"Maybe I purpose you do your job and slay," Spike said laughing a little.
"Ohh that could help huh?" before she knew it she was laughing along with him even though she vowed she hated him.
Just then she went with the moment and kissed him. She began to pull away, but he held on to her and she could feel his body so close to hers. It was warm and she felt safe.
"I have to get home because Dawn will be out of school," Buffy said not really wanting to go.
"Well you could always come back when she goes to sleep cause you know that I will be up," Spike whispered to her smirking.
She knew that this was wrong and that she could never be with him, but something about him drew her to him. Spike was just irresistible to her and she knew it no matter how hard to tried to fight it.
