Sorry it's taken so long form to update, I moved, I had to unpack and my
computer crashed, I hate viruses! Anywho, I don't own the characters of
Buffy or Angel. I don't own reflections, Christina Aguilera does. Love ya
all, hope you like this! remember to R'n'R.
It had been two weeks since Willow had joined the group and they found she fit right in. Wesley and her and been slightly skirmish around each other for a bit but got over it. Gunn was happy there was another researcher, and Cordy was plain happy there was another female. It was raining when they pulled into Carita's.
"Man! Did you see that demon's face when Willow turned his arms into flowers? Oh man that was hilarious!" Cordy laughed. The rest laughed, and Willow just smiled. They walked into the club and a relatively normal demon was singing Meredith Brooke's 'Bitch'.
"Now that's just wrong." Gunn commented. They chuckled. Lorn came up to the group and smiled at Willow. She blushed.
"So babe are you going to sing for us tonight, we all want to see what a beautiful lady like yourself sounds like." Lorn asked her and she shook her head. He had been asking ever since they had met, and she had said no every time. He grinned and raised an eyebrow at Angel. Angel gave him a look. Cordy smiled.
"Come on Willow, sing for us. I've already sang, Gunn, Angel, even Wesley got the courage to go up there once. Please?" she was whining. Willow sighed, she was not going to give and she new that. Oh well time to face the music, literally! She nodded and walked to the table, She was looking through songs when she felt someone come up behind her. She raised her eyes to meet Angel's dark brown ones. He glanced at the songs and grimaced. He looked back at her.
"Y know you don't have to do this." Willow smiled.
"And have Cordy and Lorn on my back until I do, no thanks, I think I'll get it over with. I ju-" she abruptly cut herself off and stared at something behind him. He turned and saw Buffy, Xander, Giles, and some woman, who neither of them recognized. When Buffy made eye contact with Willow, she looked away, and walked towards Cordelia, Wesley, Gunn, and Lorn. Willow looked back at the lists and a song caught her eye. She grinned. She motioned for Lorn to come over. When he got to her she pointed at the song, he grinned, walked to set it up. Willow standing next to the stage, when she saw Buffy, Giles, Xander, and the woman, sit down. Near the front. She turned her attention to Angel, Wesley, Gunn, and Cordelia, who were sitting at a table close the others' but not too close. She smiled. She turned to Lorn as he began to introduce her.
"Hey everyone, we have a beautiful young woman, who will be singing for us, this is her first time, so lets give her a round of applause." He waited until the applause died down.
"Here is Willow singing, Reflections by Christina Aguilera." He walked off stage, and Willow sat down on the stool, she looked at Angel as the song began.
Look at me
You may think you see
Who I really am
But you'll never know me
Every day
It's as if I play a part
Now I see
If I wear a mask
I can fool the world
But I cannot fool my heart
Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?
At this point Willow was looking at the table other table. They appeared spellbound, as did Angel, Cordy, Wesley, and Gunn. She kept on singing.
I am now
In a world where I
Have to hide my heart
And what I believe in
But somehow
I will show the world
What's inside my heart
And be loved for who I am
Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
Why is my reflection
Someone I don't know?
Must I pretend that I'm
Someone else for all time?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?
She looked directly into Buffy's eyes, but her vision was slightly blurred by the tears threatening to fall, but she held them back. She kept Buffy's stare as she told her how much Buffy had hurt her.
There's a heart that must be
Free to fly
That burns with a need to know
The reason why
Why must we all conceal
What we think, how we feel?
Must there be a secret me
I'm forced to hide?
I won't pretend that I'm
Someone else for all time
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?
she finished, and smiled at the crowd. She smiled at Cordy, Wesley, Gunn, and Angel, as they clapped quite enthusiastically. A half an hour later after she had sang four more times, once with Cordy, and once with surprisingly, Angel. She was sitting down with Cordy when Buffy walked up and looked at Willow.
"We need to talk." Buffy was surprised when Willow stood up and motioned to Angel. When he got there she gave him a look that Buffy did not understand, and Angel looked at his watch and nodded. He motioned, towards the others they waked over. Willow looked at Buffy.
"Sorry Buffy, we have to get back before, the sun comes up, sorry you know how it is." She gave her and Angel a meaningful look and Buffy went slightly red. She walked back to Xander and them, as Willow and the group went back to the hotel, all of them proud of Willow, Angel and Cordy especially.
