(Ok I'm glad some one reviewed and I'm glad you like Rain and Connor's relationship. I'll try to put Spike in there more.)
Rain's POV
Angel, Willow, and Connor just stared at me. I was scared I didn't know if I wanted to rescue Iris after all.
"Why did she kill me?" Connor asked taking his gaze towards Angel.
"She thought you were trying to kidnap me."
"What gave her that idea?" Willow asked.
"Well cause Connor and I were fighting he grabbed my arm and started dragging me away." I wrapped my arms around Connor's waist in a hug.
"It's going to be ok. No one's going to hurt me." He whispered while running his hand in circles on my back.
"Willow we're here." Justin turned around.
"All right thanks. See you tomorrow."
"Willow don't tell Buffy of anyone about my dream. That goes for all of you."
"But Rain maybe your sisters will tell Iris not to hurt Connor."
"Promise me?" I looked around the car.
"I promise." Connor draped his arm around my shoulder.
"I promise." Angel faced the front.
"I promise." Willow shut the door.
"Justin?"
"Who am I going to tell?" He looked at me. I glared at him. "I promise lil sis." He sighed and started driving again. I sighed and rest my head against Connor's chest.
"I love you." He whispered.
"I love you too." I whispered back.
"You guys better stay serious about that." Angel turned around and looked at us.
"Dad nothing could tear us apart."
"That's what Buffy and me thought." He turned away.
I had not known that at one time Buffy and Angel had been in love. I had no idea if what Connor said was true but some reason I felt like something would.
"Rain won't lose anything, she never has." Justin glanced at Angel.
"I'm not talking about losing; I'm talking about keeping your word."
"Rain keeps her word always has and all ways will."
"Angel I love Connor. So both of you can stop it."
"Yeah dad I love Rain and I won't hurt her."
"All I'm saying sometimes falling in love is not the easiest thing. You'll face choices that are very important." Angel looked out the window.
"Angel tell me what you're talking about?" I pulled away from Connor frustrated.
"What do you mean?" He didn't even look at me.
"You're hiding something like from the past."
"Maybe some other time when we're not so tired."
"Let's just rest." Connor laid his hand on mine.
"Connor I'm fine."
"Rain you have school tomorrow. You have to sleep." Justin turned up the radio to end a fight before it started. He always did that it meant for me to be quiet. I sank back into Connor's arms; he kissed my forehead as I yawned.
I give up everything I own for you, won't think twice
Almost a shame how I'm mesmerized, such a shame
I lose my thought when I look in your eyes
I know why, because your kisses make my lips quiver
And that's real, and when you touch me, my whole body shivers
I can feel, now I can see how another life
You have the power to take over mine, 'cause you're my...
Connor looked at me and smiled. "It's how I feel about you." I smiled held his hand and closed my eyes.
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby (baby, I love you)
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
I love it when I hear your name
Got me saying', baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, (baby, I love you)
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Baby, I can't see my world living here on God's green earth
You don't know what you've done to me
I never thought I'd need you desperately
It's kind of sick how I'm stuck on you
But I don't care, 'cause I need you
And how I feel will remain the same
Cause you're my baby, listen
And when the world starts to stress me out
Where I run it's to you boy without a doubt
You're the one who keeps me sane and I can't complain
You're like a drug, you relieve my pain, may seem strange
You're like the blood flowing through my vain
Keeps me alive and feeds my brain
Now this is how another human life
Could have the power to take over mine
Cause you're my...
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby (baby, I love you)
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
I love it when I hear your name
Got me saying', baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, (baby, I love you)
"The Caremark Inn." Justin stopped.
"Come on Connor." Angel got out. "Thank you." He looked at Justin and shut the door.
"Yeah and sorry about him." He unbuckled and opened his door. "Love you." He kissed me quickly.
"Love you too." I got out behind him and sat in the front with Justin.
"Rain be careful." Justin turned and looked at me.
"What is that suppose to mean?"
"Don't fall too hard to fast. You'll just end up hurt."
He started driving and turned up the music. I felt like grabbing the knob and turning it down, yelling my head off at Justin but instead I sat back in my seat, looked out the window and thought about everything that had been said.
"You're our sister." Those words slammed into my head. I was adopted and the family I thought to be as my own wasn't. I used to have 4 brother now I had 8 sisters. "We still love you like blood." Justin's words hit me. I didn't lose family I gained new members. Justin, Ryan, Rob, and James would always be family so would Jewel and Robert. I was a Summers and an Amazon.
"Justin, I love you."
"I love you too Rain." Justin smiled.
I looked out the window; we drove past the cemetery. "Stop!" I yelled.
"What is it?" Justin stopped on the brake.
I opened the door and jumped out, dashing towards the cemetery. "Rain stay back!" Spike yelled.
He was fighting with 2 girls. "What are you doing?"
The girl turned around they were vampires also. "Spiky who's she?" One of them asked.
"I thought you 2 were dead." Spike stepped back.
"We are." The brown head asked.
"No Dru I mean dust."
"O, that no way."
"So Spiky who's she?" The blond one asked.
"None of your concern Harmony."
"I want to play with her Spiky." Dru pleaded.
"Dru she's not to be played with." Spike grabbed her arm. Dru gave him a puppy pout. "Don't give me that Dru."
"Please Spiky let me play with her."
"No!"
"It's ok Spike let her play."
Justin jogged up behind me. "Rain you have no idea what you up against."
Dru started moaning. "Dru?" Harmony said.
"O, she's in love with Angel's son." She smiled at me and turned towards Spike. "No one told me Angel had a son."
"You leave Connor alone!" I pulled out my stake.
"What are you?" Harmony laughed.
"Slayer in training."
"And we're her sisters." Ivy, Buffy, Lily, Spring, and Winter appeared from the direction of Buffy's.
"The slayer. Get her Spiky." Dru smiled at him.
"Things have changed Drusilla." Buffy stood in front of my sisters.
"I want to play with the little slayer." Harmony whined.
"You and me?" I stared laughing.
"Why's she laughing Dru?"
"Harmony you're a whip." Dru ran at me and tackled me. She was pulled off me and thrown against the tree. Buffy helped me up.
"Slayer." Dru hissed.
"Stay away from our sister." Ivy spat.
"You're an Amazon." Dru stated.
"Yeah what's it to you?"
"Nothing."
"Dru I want to rip the lil slayer head off."
"O, Harmony shut up." A guy vamp walked out from the shadows.
"Sorry Mitch." Harmony looked at him.
"Mitch she's so small." Dru whispered.
"I know you think they'd get bigger slayers."
"Her friend seems like the best person." Dru smiled evilly.
"Angelus's son?"
"Stop talking about Connor!" I screamed.
"Bit they wont' hurt Connor cause they know Angel will rip their head off."
"No Spike his mind is busy with something else." Dru touched her face. "The slayer." She looked at Buffy. "But something is standing way." She pulled her hand down her cheek slowly. She then looked at Spike.
"You bitch! You leave Spike, Buffy, and Connor alone!" I stepped towards Dru.
"O, she's in love but that won't last long will it Mitch?"
"No pet love dies." He grabbed Dru's hand and turned away.
I stepped forward but Spike grabbed me. "No it's not time." They walked away with Harmony trailing behind.
"What do they mean love dies?"
"I don't know it could mean all sorts of things."
"Let's get home. We'll talk about it tomorrow. Spike maybe you should come with us." Buffy looked at me then Justin.
"Ok come on Justin. See you tomorrow."
"Bye love." Spike, Buffy, and my sisters walked in the direction of Buffy's Justin and me walked to his car.
"Rain don't go getting yourself hurt."
"I won't."
"Justin you got to do something for me if you're around when Dru comes again and Connor's with us you've got to take him some where safe."
Buffy's POV
"Spike we never got to talk about earlier this evening."
"What about it?"
"Let's talk about it when we get to my house."
Some days I sit staring out the window, watching' this world pass me by
Sometimes I think there's nothing' to live for. I almost break down and cry.
Sometimes I think I'm crazy. I'm crazy, oh so crazy. Why am I here? Am I just wasting my time
But then I see my baby, suddenly I'm not crazy. It all makes sense when I look into her eyes
I opened my door, walked inside. "Ivy, Spring, Lily, Winter you guys can sleep in the living room. I'll get you some blankets." I walked upstairs into the linen closet.
"Buffy your home." Dawn walked drowsily out of her room.
"Hey Dawnie why don't you go back to sleep and we'll talk in the morning."
"Ok goodnight Buffy."
"Goodnight Dawn."
Cause sometimes it feels like the worlds on my shoulders. Everyone's leaning on me
Cause sometimes it feels like the world's almost over, but then she comes back to me.
I walked downstairs to find the girl ready to lie down. I handed them pillows and blankets. "Spike come with me. Goodnight you guys."
"Thanks Buffy." Lily smiled.
"No problem."
Spike and I went back upstairs. "Wait right here." I went into my room and changed into my pajamas. "Ok come in." I opened the door.
My baby girl keeps getting' older. I watch her grow up with pride.
People make jokes cause they don't understand me, they just don't see my real side
I act like shit don't phase me, inside it drives me crazy. My insecurities could eat me alive
But then I see my baby, suddenly I'm not crazy. It all makes sense when I look in her eyes.
"Why didn't you tell me before?" I asked sitting down on my bed.
"Pet what was I suppose to say? Buffy you know I've tried to kill you but you know what I've grown feelings for you will you let me be the next Angel?"
"Ok no maybe you should have told me that you were feeling something let me have known. Somehow."
"I was surprised Dawnie didn't tell you."
"What Dawn knew?"
"Yeah of course got to share secrets with her."
"What does the whole world know?"
"No but if you kept yelling like you are they will love."
Man, if I could sing, I'd keep singing this song to my daughter. If I could hit the notes, I'd blow something as long as my father
to show her how I feel about her. How proud I am that I got her. God, I'm a daddy, I'm so glad that her mom didn't *censored* (want her)
Now you probably get this picture from my public persona that I'm a pistol packing drug addict who bags on his mama.
But I wanna to just take this time out to be perfectly honest, cause there's a lot of shit I keep bottled that hurts deep inside
of my soul. And just know that I grow colder the older I grow. This boulder on my shoulder gets heavy and harder to hold,
and this load is like the weight of the world, and I think my neck is breaking. Should I just give up or try to live up to these expectations?
Now look, I love my daughter more than life in itself, but I got a wife that's determined to
Make my life living hell.
But I handle it well, given the circumstances I'm dealt. So many chances, man, it's too bad - could have had someone else
But the years that I've wasted is nothing to the tears that I've tasted, so here's what I'm facing…3 felonies, 6 years of probation.
I've went to jail for this woman, I've been to bat for this woman. I've taken bats to people's backs, bent over backwards for this woman.
Man, I should have seen it coming. What did I stick my penis up in? Wouldn't have ripped the pre-nup up if I' would have seen what she was fucking.
But fuck it, it's over. There's no more reason to cry no more. I got my baby, baby the only lady that I adore
(Hailie). So sayonara, try tomorrow, nice to know ya. Our baby's traveled back to the arms of her rightful owner.
And suddenly it seems like my shoulder blades have just shifted. It's like the greatest gift you could get. The weight has been lifted.
"Sorry but what would you say if someone told you that they had a really big crush on you?"
"Well it depends if they are someone I like."
"Well ok I don't do good with news."
"I know you freak out."
"I do not freak!"
"I need a cigarette."
"No you don't I'm not going to waked out on again." I grabbed his arm.
"Well what do you want me to do pet?"
"Sit on the windowsill."
He opened the window, sat down, and took out a cigarette. "So may ask how you feel about me?"
"Well I'm not sure about it. With what Dru just said Angel still has his mind on me too."
"Yeah forgot about King Angel."
"But he wasn't around when I needed him like when my mom died or he wasn't there for Dawn when she just wanted to talk. You were." I pushed his feet away so I could sit next to him. "I'm very grateful for that." I laid my head on his shoulder.
"So what does this mean?"
"Angel goes back to L.A. soon and you will always be there for Dawn and me."
"So what you choose Angel or me?"
"Spike I choose you." I did something I never thought I would do unless I was under a spell I kissed him.
Cause sometimes it feels like the worlds on my shoulders. Everyone's leaning on me
Cause sometimes it feels like the world's almost over, but then she comes back to me.
(What did you think? I know you wanted more Spike so there you go. Please Review.)
