Chapter 2
Spike stayed in the bathroom until Buffy stopped crying, savoring the moment of touching. Of course it wasn't a lusting feeling but he relished it all the same. Spike had no idea what Buffy had been talking about. He knew it was about their past, but why was she crying and apologizing?
"Spike.." She looked up into his eyes tears streaming down her face. Then he saw it. The necklace she had been wearing. A blue circle with a tiny gem in the center. The charm of Temutus. He knew what it did. It made you watch your past over again and realize your true feelings for someone. She must have seen how she treated him.
"I need help" She stared into his eyes with longing. She had been so evil to him. Only someone out of their mind would act the way she did to him. Someone evil.
"Shhh." Spike calmed her and brought her to her feet carefully guiding her out of the bathroom and up the stairs.
On the 9th step it happened. It was a small sound. Nothing more than a thud. How could something so small cause so much destruction?
"Spike?" Buffy's heart started beating faster and faster. Spike could hear the blood rushing out of her. She looked up at him with horror then down at the arrow sticking out of her gut and fell on her knees.
Spike was panicking. He couldn't loose her again. He swept her up and sprinted down the stairs and laid her on her side on the couch. He couldn't stop the bleeding. "Come on baby, Don't leave me." He whimpered hastily dabbing the wound with a blanket. "HELP!!! SOMEBODY. please." The last part came out as a whimper.
Nobody was home.
"Spike.." Buffy rasped..
"Shhh, don't talk. I'll get help." With that he ran to the phone and called an ambulance. Keeping hold of the cordless phone he ran back to Buffy's side and gently stroked her hair from her face. She didn't deserve this.
"I love you." It came out in a whisper closely followed by tears.
"Luv, you're just saying that, now don't talk, the ambulance will be here so-"
"That's what I saw." He knew she was telling the truth now and stroked her hair some more before a team of doctors burst in the door and prepared her to get in the ambulance. Once in the vehicle he held her hand the whole way. Her grip was tight almost as if she let go she would die.
She loved him. She had loved him all along. In heaven things were simple and emotions were mellow. She had realized how much she loved him there, but since she was pulled out she didn't remember everything. The emotions stayed, but the world was complicated. She was the slayer and he was the vampire. So their relationship was complicated and turned out not how it was supposed to. Maybe it's not too late to start over.
~*~ sorry I didn't update sooner, My life got in the way. I wasn't planning to in the first place but I had inspiration to show my ending to the first's destruction before it aired. Please supply feed back! It's a drug. And there will be either one more long chapter or two shorter ones. Sorry for the short ness.
