Thanks that was fun
Don't forget no regrets
Except maybe one
Made a deal
Not to feel
God that was dumb
Everyone knows the deal fell through
I was hoping I could just blame you
When was it that I became so soft
This sentimentality doesn't look good on me
I thought that you would be begging to be with me
I'm the one on my knees
Jinx poured the last drop of her gin and tonic down her throat and signaled the passing waiter for another one. Noticing the disapproving glare of her companion she asked him for a double. So far all they had done was sit and glare at each other. It was getting boring…fast.
Well at least she hasn't tried to beat me up, Jinx mused. But mind you even that would be more interesting than this. Deciding to push her luck Jinx spoke first.
"So are we going to stare at each other all night or are we going to get on with the business of what this little excursion is about."
"What the hell is that supposed to mean" Jinx had to hand it her, Buffy could put just the right amount of sarcasm in a phrase.
"You dragged me out here so you could get all the smutty little details of what went on between me and Spike."
"What….. I did not…… I came here to find out about Jacob…. If you hid the stuff about Spike then I know your hiding stuff about Jacob."
"Number one, sweet cheeks, I have told you all I'm going to tell you about me and Jacob. Number two, if you came down off your high horse for two seconds you would realize that I am the only one you can talk to about Spike honestly."
There, thought Jinx, let's see what she does with that one.
"Spike and honesty don't really go together. What happened was a mistake. A mistake I am trying to erase from my mind, and I don't appreciate you skipping around in my memories trying to dig up dirt."
"Oh, I see, so it doesn't bother you that I was the first person with a pulse he slept with. Doesn't affect you at all that I got there first."
"Your disgusting, I don't care what Spike did before…..or now for that matter. He could screw you in the middle of main street and I wouldn't care."
"Really is that a fact." Reaching across the table Jinx plucked her gin out the slayers hand. "Stick to your coke honey, your too young to drink." Smiling at the girls obvious discomfort despite her words Jinx decided to push the envelope.
"So if it doesn't bother you, and being as I'm in a nostalgic mood, how about we take a little trip down memory lane. It was the summer after Woodstock. I had a sweet deal going at a club in San Francisco, fleecing the locals out of their hard-earned cash through some exceptionally good cons on my part. I was in the process of taking a sweet young man's money at the pool tables when Spike walked in. Now I don't care who you are, that man has sex toy written all over him."
Jinx grinned, Buffy was in the process of shredding all the napkins on the table. This was too fun.
"I let him lead me into the back hall, he was probably planning on killing me but I had other ideas. Before he could even think about biting me I was on my knees and------Hey…. Watch it!"
Jinx glared at Buffy as she wiped the remains of coke off her face. The stupid twit had choked and spit it out all over her. Figuring that the finer points of the relationship were going to get her covered in bruises rather than just coke she gave Buffy the edited version.
"Moving on then. We spent two weeks together, shagging like bunnies. It was some of the best sex of my life. The end."
"What do you mean 'the end'. That's it. No promises of endless devotion blah blah blah. He dumped your ass, didn't he. Points to Spike for getting the hell away from you."
Okay this was getting to be a bit much, was there no end to the girls denial. It was as plain as the nose on her face that Buffy felt more than disgust for Spike. A whole lot more.
" Yes, he dumped me. Dru came back from whatever little excursion she had felt the need to be on. He gave me some long flowery speech but it essentially came down to he loved her, not me. Haven't you figured out by now that when Spike is in love nothing on earth will keep him from that person. Not even really…….really……good sex."
Jinx was saved another coke shower by the appearance of the subject of this little discussion. She had been wondering how long it would take Spike to show up. She knew he didn't trust her alone with the object of his devotion for long.
"Dance , luv."
Jinx watched the determined vampire in front of her. He had obviously been there for a while, she could tell by the tension coiling through his body. He had heard every word they had said and now he was right pissed at his slayer. She could hear Buffy sputtering some crap about how she didn't want to dance and he should get lost.
Jinx took the hand Spike was holding out to her. It was time to have a little fun. Buffy wasn't going to know what hit her. Grinning at the stunned look on the slayers face as Spike led her towards the dance, she had to hold in the laughter at his parting comment to the girl.
"I wasn't talking to you slayer"
……………………………………………….
They had danced about 10 songs in a row and Jinx was starting to wonder what Spike's plan was ,other than repeatedly stepping on her feet. She had tried to talk to him but his answers had been short at best. He was sulking and it was pissing her off. The Spike she had known would never have let a woman, much less a slayer get to him like this. It was damn disappointing. She heard the first few notes of a slow song starting and decided enough was enough, if Spike wasn't going to do something, she was.
Shifting her hips closer to him, Jinx molded herself against him. She watched Spikes eyebrow shoot up at her actions. Pulling his body into the sway of the music she leaned in to nibble on his neck. Moving slowly up the length she whispered softly in his ear.
"You want the girl. I'm going to get her for you. Just go with this."
Spike's reaction was immediate, she felt a hand sliding into her hair as
the other one made a slow trip down her back. Pulling up for his neck she turned her face for his kiss.
Turning her attention away from the pleasant sensations his touch was invoking Jinx focused in on Buffy's mind and was delighted at the results.
'She's kissing his neck! And he's letting her! What the…. She's got her hand on his as…..Wait a minute he's playing with her hair. She's giving him sexy look number 9. You bitch that's my look. No… No….No…He can't…… He won't…..YOU ASSHOLE…….'
Moments later she pushed Spike away and walked back to the table the slayer had quickly vacated. Picking up her drink she faced the approaching vampire.
"Give her a day or so to think about it. She's jealous, cause it sure as hell wasn't disgust that had her running out of here like the place was on fire."
Taking pity on a still unhappy Spike she took his hand.
"Come on handsome, I'll let you buy me a drink."
