Song list – Wont Say I'm in Love – from Disney's Hercules
oOoOoOoOo
As Buffy lay on her bed the tears slid down her face, she knew Spike loved her but the song was truly beautiful and she didn't know how but she knew that THAT particular song was not part of the spell it was 100 percent Spike and his emotions. Clutching Mr Gordo to her chest Buffy rolled over to her side so that her back was facing the door. Her green eyes focused on the old New Kids on The Block poster, a small smile graced her lips her room was still filled with childlike innocence. From the teen-y bopper posters to the lacy princess canopy atop her bed though there were deferent changes throughout the years many pictures graced most of the available surfaces, scented candles in strategic places a TV and DVD collection in a corner. Buffy could feel her eyelids drooping and soon sleep claimed her, her dreams haunted by soft guitar melodies and heart-warming lyrics...
oOoOoOoOo
Half an hour later Dawn crept up the stairs she loved the Scooby's she REALLY did but at times they drove her crazy all Xander kept going on about was Spike
"Whys he still here?"
"Cant I just dust him? Do us a favour?"
"Stupid Captain Peroxide"
"What would I give for a good Staking"
Dawn rolled her eyes at the thought and those were barely 10 minutes of him. As Dawn reached the top of the stairs, she could hear soft whimpers coming from Buffy's room. Quietly opening the door Dawn slipped into the room Buffy was sleeping on her bed turning slightly in her sleep Dawn walked over to the bed and sat on the edge as she reached out a hand to wake her sister she heard Buffy whisper
"Spike"
Startled Dawn pulled back did Buffy just say what she thought she did
"S-spike" came Buffy's voice again "mmm" Dawn bit back a chuckle
"Will you stay?" Buffy mumbled "Forever... day... Give... heart"
Dawn decided it was time to wake her sister reaching out her had again Dawn grabbed Buffy's shoulder and shook her
"Buffy... Wake up" she said quickly moving out of the way as Buffy sat bolt upright
"D-Dawnie?" she said as she rubbed her eyes "how long was I asleep?"
"Ohhh half hour..." Dawn said with a shrug "Have a good sleep?"
Buffy smiled as she lay back down on her bed motioning for Dawn to join her as she patted the empty space next to her. Dawn quickly lay down Buffy smiled at her sister then she thought about what Dawn had asked ohhh yeah she dreamt about Spike, and the kiss they shared she relived it for the entirety of the dream with the song Spike sang in the basement in the background just lout enough for her to hear it. Definitely, a good dream she decided. Dawn watched as a smile spread over her sister's face she hadn't seen Buffy like that since she was brought back Dawn let out an evil grin mimicking the one Spike had perfected over time.
"Soooo dream bout anyone I know... a Bleached Vamp?" Buffy's face went red
"I-I don't know what you're talking about" she said
"I heard you Buff, you whispered his name in your sleep amongst other things"
"What... what did I say?"
"Ummm you said Spike twice and then Will you stay, Forever... day... Give... heart," said Dawn slowly
"O-oh" was all Buffy said
"Do you... like Spike?" Dawn asked 'tentively she knew how Spike felt for her sister but her sisters feelings were a mystery.
"Sometime" was all Buffy's reply emotion thickening her voice. The sisters lay in silence for a while. Each had their eyes on the canopy above them.
"Do..." Dawn started before she stopped
"What Dawnie?" Buffy asked Dawn took a deep breath
"Do you l-love him?"
"Love... wha... N..." the words got stuck in Buffy's throat as a soft violin melody started Buffy opened her mouth and started to sing... AGAIN to her dismay
-Buffy –
If
there's a prize for rotten judgement
I guess I've already won
that
No man is worth the aggravation
That's ancient history,
been there, done that!
Buffy and Dawn's eyes went wide Buffy couldn't believe what she was singing and she sent a silent prayer to the Powers to thank them it was Dawnie she was sharing this song with. Before she turned her thoughts to the blond vampire downstairs. Buffy couldn't help but think about her previous relationships they were disasters -Dawn –
Who'd'ya
think you're kiddin'
He's the Earth and heaven to you
Try to
keep it hidden
Honey, we can see right through you
Girl, ya
can't conceal it
We know how ya feel and
Who you're thinking
of
It was all so clear to Dawn, the looks Buffy had been sending Spike's way when she thought no one was watching. How she made him stay under the pretence that the needed to stay together when they both knew, it would have made it easier if he wasn't here not that Dawn was complaining she loved Spike... and so did Buffy a smile graced Dawns face
-Buffy-
No
chance, no way
I won't say it, no, no
'I cant... I-I don't' Buffy thought but she couldn't ignore the tiny warm fuzzy feeling in her stomach at the thought as she got off her bed and sat down in front of her vanity looking at Dawn in the mirror
-Dawn-
You
swoon, you sigh
why deny it, uh-oh
If it was the last thing she did, Dawn resolved to make her admit it to both herself and Spike
-Buffy-
It's
too cliché
I won't say I'm in love
'Who said anything about love?' Buffy thought
I
thought my heart had learned its lesson
It feels so good when you
start out
My head is screaming get a grip, girl
Unless you're
dying to cry your heart out
Oh
A tear ran down Buffy's cheek, she did she knew that she did... she Buffy Summers loved Spike
Dawn reached over and wiped the tear away
-Dawn-
You
keep on denying
Who you are and how you're feeling
Baby, we're
not buying
Hon, we saw ya hit the ceiling
Face it like a
grown-up
When ya gonna own up
That ya got, got, got it bad
'Come on Buff admit it' Dawn thought
As Dawn sang Buffy listened, did she really act like that... did he really change so much when he was there? Buffy shook her head of course she did he was the reason she was still here after being torn from heaven Spike wouldn't let her have her death wish he was the fire she needed to keep moving, smiling, LIVING.
-Buffy-
No
chance, now way
I won't say it, no, no
'stop being stubborn' Dawn wanted to scream
However, even as Buffy sang the words a silly grin fixed its self on her face as she thought of the passion, romance, love that Spike and her could share. He loved Dawn they would be a family...-Dawn-
Give
up, give in
Check the grin you're in love
'Even Dawn can see it' Buffy though-Buffy-
This
scene won't play,
I won't say I'm in love
'No I'm the chosen one, I can't its... wrong' Buffy though sadly just her luck he was a vampire but... as a vampire Spike was her equal he walked alongside her FOUGHT alongside her never trying to stop her like Riley and Angel. He knew her abilities and trusted them something she never experienced before-Dawn-
You're
doin flips read our lips
You're in love
'I've nearly got her' Dawn thought preparing to do her victory dance -Buffy-
You're
way off base
I won't say it
Get off my case
I won't say it
'no' Buffy thought another tear escaping from her eyes
-Dawn-
Girl,
don't be proud
It's O.K. you're in love
Buffy smiled maybe Dawn was right maybe it's OK its love, the gang could accept him they had accepted Anya hadn't they? Sucking in a deep breath she sang strongly turning around to look at Dawn-Buffy-
Oh
At
least out loud,
I won't say I'm in love
Softly the music faded and Dawn ran over to Buffy as she started to babble
"oh this is great Buffy" Buffy placed a hand over Dawn's mouth
"Dawnie can... can you not say anything?" Buffy pleaded
"What... Why you love him," Dawn said confused
"Y-yes I think... I'm sure I do but I-I just need time PLEASE" Dawn let out a sigh Buffy was going to be avoid-y girl again not good
"o-ok Buffy... but I think it's great," said Dawn as she walked towards the door with her had on the door knob Dawn turned back to her sister
"Talk to him" she said softly as she walked out the door closing it behind her. With Dawn gone Buffy was once again left alone with her thoughts... she really did love him as she stared in the mirror at her reflection she noticed the smile actually reached her eyes this time, something that hadn't happened since long before she died on Glory's tower... and the reason for that was a bleached vampire who she needed to talk to. Getting up Buffy walked out her door and headed downstairs. As she reached the bottom stairs, she heard something that made her stop dead in her tracks.
