-Spikes Room-

By the time Buffy got to Spike's room he was no longer there. She opened the door and walked straight to the bathroom for a shower. Out of all the girls she had trained Fred was something special and Buffy knew it, high hopes lingered inside Buffy and she knew Fred would make her proud. The slayer though put all thoughts on hold and cleared her head as she enjoyed her shower. It lasted a good 45 minutes or how long it took the hot water to run out before she wrapped a towel around herself and exited the bathroom for her clothes. As she walked out she only grabbed the clothes left for her on the bed by Spike and then the clothes she needed from her bag before making her way back into the bathroom to make herself ready for the big night.

-Angel's Office-

Angel had just finished throwing on his leather coat as Gunn and Spike made thier way into his office. They were soon followed by Wesley and Fred who looked a little tired from thier long day. Angel smiled at how everybody had cleaned up, "Wow, so this is what happens when we all have a night out?"

Fred shrugged, "Actually I kind of prefer my club clothes last night!"

Wesley smiled and gripped her hand, "You always look beautiful."

Spike had to interrupt the moment, "Look at the little lovebirds."

Fred turned a little red as Wesley avoided everyones stares. Gunn smiled, "It's nice to see a normal realationship for a change..." He looked directly at Spike and then at Angel, "...not one full of drama."

Wesley had to change the subject, "Speaking of Buffy, where is she?"

Gunn went with the conversation, "I'd kind of like to know that too. I'm her driver."

Spike was all ready to answer like he knew everything about Buffy but Angel cut him off with a smile, "She takes a while to get organized and packed. Everythings got to be perfect."

Spike glared at him before adding a small tidbit, "She's probably still in my room, that's where all her stuff is."

Angel only glared back and before anything was said between the vampires Fred stepped in, "Alright, so then why don't we all head down to the club and Gunn can go get Buffy now."

Angel nodded, "Okay." He looked at Gunn, "You take care of her."

Gunn smiled, "I was taking care of that girl longer then any of you boys were and I didn't even fall in love with her." The vamps only put on sarcastic smiles as Gunn walked to the door, "See you guys at the club."

As he exited Angel pulled out his keys and started throwing them up in the air and catching them while slowly walking to the door, "I'm driving."

Spike shook his head and walked faster passed while grabbing the keys mid air and right out the door, "Wrong again boss man, Spikes turn to drive."

Fred and Wesley only laughed at the anger written in Angel's face as he stalked after Spike. Fred looked up at Wesley, "Tonights going to be fun."

-Spikes Room-

Gunn knocked once and then walked into the room, "Buffy?"'

She poked her head out from the bathroom, "Just putting on my earrings. I'm almost ready."

Gunn nodded, shut the door and walked to sit on the bed. He noticed the two bags and looked towards the bathroom, "So, you're all packed?"

Buffy walked out of the bathroom and noticed Gunn's stunned face when he saw what she looked like but answered him like nothing was different, "Yep. Looks like by this time tomorrow I won't be here."

Gunn tried to say what he thought Buffy would want to hear, "You know that fantasy you've been thinkin about where right at the last minute Angel tells you to stay, I'm thinkin it's going to come true."

Buffy smiled at his ignorance once again, "It's just a fantasy Gunn. The truth is we'll have a hard goodbye, Spike will ask me to stay and then I'll end up leaving L.A. Even if he asked me to stay Charlie I don't think I'd say yes; It would only be out of pity!" Charlie stayed silent so she continued and walked closer to him, "Thanks for trying but looks like I'm outta of here once again."

Gunn shook his head, stood up and walked over to grab both her hands, "I just got my best friend back."

Buffy smiled and she lent in to hug him, "I'll be around Charlie boy, you know me."

He smiled and rubbed his hand through her hair to mess it up, "Yeah you're right. Now let's get a move on so that you can show everybody how much you blend in with the whole vampire crowd."

Buffy looked herself over, "You think I look like a vampire?"

Gunn shrugged, "A little cliche with the silk and the little bit of pale make up but yeah. Should have bought a leather coat when you went shopping."

Buffy smiled, "Yeah well, I didn't know what I needed to wear until this morning."

"It's all good slayer, you look hot."

Buffy bowed and realized one thing, "So, how'd that date go?"

Gunn shook his head, "She liked to talk... a lot."

Buffy smiled and slugged him in the shoulder, "You'll find a girl, I promise."

"I got lots of time."

Buffy nodded, walked over to the bathroom to grab her purse and then walked back to Gunn, "Everyone already there?" He nodded, "Good, I like to make an enterence."

Gunn held out his arm like a date and she gracefully accepted. As she finally faced the door she noticed a leather coat hanging from the doorknob and put on a huge smile.

-Club-

Lorne was already mingling and talking but when he walked over to Angel and the rest of the group he looked really worried. He ordered another drink from the bar and then stared back and forth between Angel and Spike, "Where is she already? I mean people are going to get bored."

Spike smiled, "Our girl likes to make an enterence."

Angel agreed, "Yeah, she'll be here, I promise."

Lorne accepted his drink with a sarcastic smile and turned to go mingle when she noticed Gunn and Buffy make thier big enterence. Lorne stood with an open mouth at how amazing Buffy looked. When Fred, Wesley, Spike, Angel, Cordy and Xander saw Buffy and Gunn their mouths flew to the floor also. It didn't take long for Buffy to walk over to Lorne and everyone else but when she did she was greeted with shock. "So what do you guys think?"

She turned into a full circle. Cordelia was the first to recover, "A little dark but it suits you."

Xander nodded and walked over to kiss his slayer on the cheek, "You look amazing."

Fred agreed, "He's right, you look awesome."

Wesley smiled, "Good luck tonight Buffy."

Buffy smiled and looked over to Spike. Before he could say anything she hugged him, "Thanks for the coat."

Finally everyone noticed that Spike wasn't wearing his coat and congratulated him. Angel couldn't believe it and looked at Buffy, "Is there anything that you're wearing that's not Spike's?"

Buffy shrugged, "I would have wore one of his bras but they didn't fit." Everyone had thier own laugh but then she seriously answered, "I needed to look a little vampish tonight. Well I didn't need to, it would just look really good if I did."

Angel scoffed at Spike, "So you picked him?"

Buffy smiled but Xander answered for Buffy, "Well deadboy, Spike kind of does look a little more like a vampire then you do. I mean you could pull off human...Spike on the other hand isn't even close to human."

Niether vampire knew wheather or not to be offended and it only made Buffy laugh, "God, I miss how you used to do that. You're the only one who could actually get under thier skin like that."

Xander shrugged, "It's a best friends right to give her boyfriends a hard time."

Angel sighed, "You only hate us because you used to love her too."

Xander nodded, "Yeah and now that I'm her best friend I have even more of a right to not like you." Before either one of the vampires could say anything he kept talking, "Not to mention the fact you guys killed people for fun for more then 100 years."

That shut them up but only made Buffy smile. It sounded like Sunnydale all over again, like she had never left. She was drawn out of her thoughts when Lorne grabbed her hand, "Well darling, I think it's time you mingle for a little bit and then set the band up with whatever you're singing. Two songs, one to open and one to close the night right?"

Buffy nodded, "Okay. One rule."

Lorne smiled, "Whatever I read stays between you and me."

Buffy nodded and looked at everyone else, "Thats my only rule."

Lorne nodded, "It's done. Now let's mingle darling."

Buffy smiled grabbed his hand and followed him into the crowd. Spike looked at Angel and made a statement that Angel knew already, "She fits right into that world."

The only reason Angel wasn't happy about that was because he knew that Buffy would never be able to fully enter that world due to the fact that in the publics eye people notice when you're not getting old. That's the only reason Lorne isn't a giant star by now. So Angel only nodded and had another sip of his drink while watching his slayer be happy in L.A. Really happy, not just a fake smile and sarcastic comments.

-45 Minutes Later-

Buffy was just finishing her talk with the band as Lorne walked over to the gang, "She's a handful, everybody loves her." He reached for another drink and smiled at the sight of Buffy on the stage. She walked to the mic and adjusted it to her height, "That should be her world."

Buffy wore Spike's black jeans with a black tank top and the red silk shirt over top with only the mid three buttons done up and then of course the famous black leather coat. Spike looked at Lorne, "I said that like an hour ago."

Xander looked over at Lorne, "So you're really into all this entertainment stuff huh? You think you could hook me up?"

Lorne smiled, "Well just what is it you do?"

Xander smiled, "Grade A comedian. I've been looking into it, the way I figure it I'm done not getting paid for being stupid everyday."

Lorne smiled, "Okay then, tomorrow I'll set you up with an audition for me and we'll go from there. I have to see what you got."

Xander smiled at Cordy, "Thank you Cordelia for being my practice audience these past 8 years."

She only slapped him in the shoulder and Lorne sighed before looking at everybody else. "Well guys it's time. I'm going to go introduce our girl."

He walked over to the stage as Angel lent over to Spike, "Have you actually ever heard her sing?"

"Heard her humm a few bars in the shower but nothin more. You?"

Angel shook his head, "I just can't believe it."

The whole crowd went silent as Lorne stood on the stage with that big hollywood smile of his, "We have a real treat here tonight for the big open. Some of you know her and some of you don't but I guarantee that by the end of the night you will all be shocked and aching to talk to her. Ladies and Gentlemen this is Buffy Summers or as most of you know her... The slayer!" The lights dimmed and a not so farmiliar rhythm echoed the room. Buffy stepped up to the mic and with no hesitation opened up those vocals which shocked her friends to silence.

-Come to my world, child of the night,
Come out of your darkness and into my light,
Looking for you all of your life,
Don't be afraid - it'll be all right...

God grant you serenity,
You bring out the best in me,
Let my love take you higher,
Guess what... i'm a vampire!

baby get ready - i'm coming for you,
i'm a vampire!
i want you - nothing you can do,
i'm a vampire!
watch me do my dance for you,
i want you - nothing you can do,
baby get ready - i'm coming for you,
i'm a vampire!

In your head you always hear me Close your eyes - i'm all that you see,
For lust, for life, my intimate fire,
Nightly dances, dance in desire...

God grant you serenity,
You bring out the best in me,
Let my love take you higher,
Guess what... i'm a vampire!

baby get ready - i'm coming for you,
i'm a vampire!
i want you - nothing you can do,
i'm a vampire!
watch me do my dance for you,
i want you - nothing you can do,
baby get ready - i'm coming for you,
i'm a vampire!

Buffy stared into the eyes of both her lovers as she continued to sing her heart out. Every once in a while everyone would look at how Lorne was reacting to her emotions and it almost scared everybody at how shocked he seemed. As she neared the end of her song a tear crept from Lorne's eyes and he couldn't believe how fragile this slayer was. Angel and Spike didn't need to know what he was reading from her voice because when they looked into her eyes they could see how broken she was. Every word she sang leaked a little more of her heart to her audience and she had never felt more relived and relaxed as she did when she sang.

(let's be together... don't be afraid... you called me... i was what you wished for... you held me here beside you... i was what you wished for... i came for you... i came for you... i was what you wished for... you taste like honeydew... be careful what you wish for... i wished for you your whole life... be careful what you wish for... let me be you tonight... tonight...)

baby get ready - i'm coming for you,
i'm a vampire!
i want you - nothing you can do,
i'm a vampire!
watch me do my dance for you,
i want you - nothing you can do,
baby get ready - i'm coming for you,
i'm a vampire!

When she ended the song a deadly silence lingered for a few seconds as she stayed frozen on the stage. Once everyone saw her move the crowd broke out into applause. Lorne ran up to the stage and spoke into the mic, "Wasn't that the most amazing voice you've ever heard? Stick around until the end of the night to catch her closing act."

Buffy hugged Lorne right there as she steadied her breathing and slowly followed him off the stage. She was headed right for her friends congrats but was bombarded with people congratulating her and telling her how amazing she is. It wasn't for a long while that she actually made it over to her friends with Lorne. She looked over at him, "I could get used to this."

Lorne had a small laugh, "Oh hunny, you were made for this."

That brought Buffy back to reality because she knew there was only one thing she was made for but that didn't have to ruin her night. She walked up to everyone smiling and still a little out of breath. Gunn stood up, "God you're an amazing woman!"

They gave each other a hug, "You've heard me sing before."

Gunn sat back down, "Well... You know what I'm talking about."

They had a smile and Wesley stood next to give her a hug, "You have a lot of talent Buffy!"

When he sat back down Buffy held on to his hand, "You didn't see that five years ago?"

She walked back over to Xander who stood but didn't give her a hug. He just grabbed her hand and wrapped it in both of his, "You know you're amazing Buffy so I'm just going to say that you looked good and you finally found something you'd enjoy, without it being a calling."

Buffy pulled him into a hug and didn't want to let him go. She did though when Cordy stood up and addressed her, "So I'm just going to say it sounded alright, you did good!"

Buffy nodded, "Thanks!"

Lorne jumped in, "Save the congrats for the last performance guys."

Fred agreed, "Yeah, it will be just as amazing as that last one."

Buffy nodded at her congrats but then looked at Lorne, "So let's put some music on Lorne. I kind of want to dance now."

Lorne signaled to one of the band members to play the stereo. Xander stood and looked at Cordy, "Let's dance."

Cordy stood up, "You couldn't even ask me nicely?"

Xander shrugged and guided her to the dance floor, "It's not in my nature."

As they walked off to the dance floor Fred stood up and grabbed Wesley's hand but met resistence, "Come on Wesley."

Wesley shook his head and showed her a smile, "I don't dance Fred, you know that."

Fred tugged once more, "I'm never going to kiss you again!"

Wesley looked around a little embarassed and stood up slowly. Fred obviously had a little to drink but it was amusing. Gunn stood and took Buffy's hand, "I guess that was my cue to lead the star to the dance floor."

Buffy looked at the vampires at the end of the bar but said nothing as they avoided her gaze. She couldn't even believe it and just took Gunn's hand, "You got it Charlie!"

When they left Lorne looked at Angel and Spike with a glare on his face. They avoided his stare because they knew there was disappointment in his eyes. Lorne couldn't take the silence anymore though, "You know she's leaving tomorrow right? This girl is a slayer you two love more then anything and she is just waiting for a reason to stay and here you two are scared out of your minds, so scared you can't even tell her how amazing she was on stage. You know I get the fact there are restrictions but you two are supossed to be her best friends in the whole world and you can't even play that part! Smarten up vamps or you are going to lose her." He then walked off to mingle and dance as Spike and Angel sent a few glares to each other knowing the perky green demon was right.
