As the weeks went by, Buffy and Seeley didn't get the chance to spend as much time together as they wanted. Every time they would get a chance to get together Dr. Brennan would always have Buffy go work down in Limbo. Buffy was well aware that Dr. Brennan had romantic feelings towards Seeley. When she brought the issue up with Seeley, he gave a chuckle and told her that his feelings towards Dr. Brennan were purely professional. Buffy gave a sigh of relief when she heard this, for she was falling hard and fast for Seeley.
On the odd chance that they could get together, it never felt like a real date. It was always getting together before or after work. Buffy wanted a real date with Seeley. One where she spent hours getting ready, wear a knock-out outfit, and maybe some serious kissing at the end. As if he was reading her thoughts Seeley appeared in front of her, and he seemed to be a little nervous she noted.
Seeley gave her a smirk. "Buffy, I was wondering.."
Seeley lost his train of thought when Buffy looked up and gave him a smile. It seemed that her smile could always make his knees weak, and turn him into an inexperience teenager.
Buffy smiled at him. "Seeley? Are you ok?"
Seeley regained his train of thought and took a deep breathe. "Yeah. I'm ok. Buffy, I was wondering if you would like to go out on a date with me? An official date. One where it isn't before or after work."
Buffy forgot to breath. She couldn't believe it. He actually asked her out. When she glanced at Seeley, she couldn't help but giggle at his nervous expression.
Buffy gave him her best smile. "Yes, Seeley. I would love to go out with you."
Seeley couldn't help but leave out the breathe he was holding. "Great. I will pick you up tonight at 6.
Buffy beamed. "Six would be great."
As Seeley walked away Buffy couldn't help but let out a squeal of excitement. At this time Angela walked by.
Angela looked at Buffy and took in her happy appearance. "Well it seems someone is in a good mood."
Buffy couldn't take the smile off of her face. "In a very good mood."
Angela waited for Buffy to elaborate, but when she didn't Angela continued onto her office.
When Angela walked away, Buffy began to think about what she was going to wear for her date tonight. She had a killer black dress that she has been dying to wear out. This seem like the perfect time.
When Buffy got off of work, she hurried home to get ready. She was happy that she manage to get out on time. For once it seemed that Dr. Brennan wasn't around to make her go work down in Limbo. It seemed that she just got it and was beginning to get ready when the doorbell rang. She looked at the clock to see that it was five minutes to six. She gave one final look in the mirror then went to answer the door.
When Buffy opened the door, Seeley forgot how to breath. She had her hair up in an elegant twist, a tight black dress that accented her curves, and her legs seem to go on for miles. While he was checking her out, Buffy was checking him out. He had on dark wash jeans, a deep red silk shirt (with the top two buttons undone), and a leather jacket. With the top two buttons undone, Buffy got a good look at Seeley's well defined chest.
After a while they both realized that they were staring and looked away in embarrassment.
Seeley cleared his throat. "Wow, Buffy you look great."
Seeley was awarded with a blush. "Thank you Seeley. You look great too."
Seeley gave her a sexy half smirk. "Well we should be get going."
It took everything Buffy had not to take his hand and lead him back to the bedroom. He just look so sinful.
When they reached the restaurant, Wong Foos, Seeley did all the gentlemanly things such as open doors, and pull out her chair. Buffy usually didn't like when men did things for her, but when he did them it made her feel wanted and appreciated. The conversation flowed over dinner and wine. Not once was work mentioned. They continued to learn more about each other, laughed, and joked. After what seem like a couple of minutes, but were actually hours later, Seeley walked Buffy up to her door.
Seeley looked down at Buffy. He couldn't believe have small she really was compared to him. All he wanted to do was take her in his arms and protect her. At the same time Buffy looked up at Seeley. He just seemed to tower over her. But instead if feeling intimidated she felt safe.
This was when they both realized how close they were. Seeley leaned down and captured Buffy's lips in a sweet kiss. When their lips connected, it seemed like the world stopped. All that matter was them. When Seeley went to move away, Buffy wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him in for a deep kiss. When Seeley's tongue passed over her lips, Buffy obliged and made the kiss even deeper.
After making out for a couple of minutes, the both broke away gasping for air. When they both looked at each other they couldn't help but smile at each other.
Seeley reluctantly pulled out of her arms. " I should get going. But, I wanted to ask you one more thing before I go."
Buffy looked up at Seeley. "Yes?"
Seeley took Buffy's hand. "Would you be my girlfriend?"
Buffy never felt more ecstatic. " YES! I would love to your girlfriend."
This cause another make out session at Buffy's door. When Buffy pulled away, they both were once again gasping for air. After the made plans for another date, Seeley finally managed to get away, neither could keep the smile off their face.
The next day....
"Hello Ms. Summers. My name is Dr. Sweets." Dr. Sweets greeted.
Buffy gave him a tight smile. "Please call me Buffy, Dr. Sweets."
Dr. Sweets gave her an encouraging smile. "While I have reviewed her file that Dr. Giles had sent me. And I am shocked about your past. What I would like you to do is to tell me your past in your own words."
Buffy took a deep breathe and began. "It all started when..."
