"Just a Crush-Or is it Destiny?"
(Sorry guys, I've been writing it wrong the whole time!)
The vampire spotted her walking in the cemetery. 'What is a young girl doing walking alone in a cemetery late at night?' he wondered. 'Oh well,' he then thought wickedly. 'She'll make a nice midnight snack!'
The vamp advanced on her in normal face, calling out, "Hey, pretty lady. What's a nice girl like you doing in a place like this at night?"
The blonde girl turned around and smiled. "Nothing much, just walking around, lookin' for vamps, you know, same old, same old."
The vampire's eyes widened in surprise. "You're- you're. . ."
"Having trouble in public speaking? Aww, let me help you," she walked up in front of the shell-shocked demon and produced a stake. "I'm Buffy, and youu'rreee history!!" she staked the vampire quickly and efficiently, turning it to dust.
"Impressive," came the now familiar voice from right behind her. She sighed and turned around. "I especially like the witty remarks. Do you think of them yourself?"
"Yeah, actually I do. What do you want?" Buffy said impatiently, knowing that this was their game, seeing how annoyed they could make the other person before they finally gave in.
"Come on, Slayer," he grinned mischievously. "You know full well what I want." He stepped suggestively nearer to her and she took a step back. Spike frowned. "You know, my witty remarks would be better if you listened to them." He went even nearer, and this time she didn't move back. "I-want- you." He pressed his lips on hers, waiting for her to kiss back, but all she did was giggle into his mouth.
"What?" he asked, annoyed, pulling out of the one-sided kiss.
"Sorry." Giggle. "It's just-" Giggle giggle. "You look so funny when you're trying to be tempting me."
Spike frowned playfully. "I wasn't trying. That was all me. Being tempting. Come on," he pleaded. "Tell me that you didn't find me tempting."
"Welll." she said, smiling. "Maybe a litttllle tempting. But not very."
"Oh, come on. How much does it take to be tempting?" he said, playing mock upset. He snapped his fingers. "I know. How's this for sweet? Just for now, until I can work my way up to tempting, that is."
He produced a small velvet box from his jacket pocket, and handed it to Buffy.
She pulled up one eyebrow in a characteristic look. "Uh-isn't this a bit soon?"
He laughed softly. "No, not that. Just a present."
Buffy opened the box and her eyes widened. It was a beautiful golden ring, a claddah to be more precise, with a red ruby cut like a heart at the top, two diamonds as the hands, and a crown shaped canary diamond on top of the heart. The Slayer wondered why she didn't drop it, since she had with the one Scott gave her, but this was different. She had gotten over Angel now, had more closure knowing he forgave her, and this was an adult relationship with Spike-if one could even call it a relationship.
"Spike," she gasped. "It's-gorgeous. Thank you-my God, I don't know what to say."
The vampire was obviously pleased with her reaction. "Did anyone ever tell you what it meant?"
Buffy glanced at Spike, knowing what it meant. "What does it mean? I want you to tell me."
"Well, the crown means loyalty, the hands mean friendship, and the heart means love. When you wear it pointing in towards you, it means you belong to somebody."
Buffy smiled. That had sounded almost exactly what Angel had told her the night he lost his soul and gave her the same ring. Except he hadn't said the word 'love,' Buffy thought.
She slipped the ring on her finger, but with the point facing to a clearly upset Spike. She smiled secretly. She walked up and gently brushed his cheek with her lips, making him tingle all over at her touch.
"For later," she said in explanation, and went home.
Sorry I haven't been updating in a while, I've been busy creating a new fic. It's called "BTVS High" if you want to check it out. ~Em})i({
