CHAPTER. 16

"Come on Angel, it's an easy answer, why would Sir Capulet disallow Juliet from seeing Romeo?" Buffy asked Angel

"I don't know, might be because the loon wears tights.father wants his daughter to date a guy who wears loose fitting clothes"

"Argh" she yelled frustrated "this session is officially over"

"Why?"

"Angel, why are you really here.are you really here to study or what?"

"Well.I want you to really think.where are you and Spike going.and think about us"

"Angel, we will never be together, ever again"

"Find that really hard to believe"

"Ofcourse you would, not something you're use to, rejection that is, face it Angel, you hurt me, and I won't let myself get hurt.not again"

"So Spike would never hurt you?"

"I have more of chance of hurting him, then he has a chance of hurting me, that's how much I trust him"

"Bullshit.he is a guy Buffy, just like me, I was trustworthy for 3 & a half years.all guys cheat one way or another" Angel said as Buffy just shook her head, "Don't just not agree with me.because I can't promise that if I you gave me a chance, I know that I would cheat again, because I am a guy"

"Spike would NEVER hurt me," Buffy said

"Okay.if you say so," Angel muttered as the bedroom door opened

"Sorry I didn't knock" Spike said walking in seeing Buffy and Angel on opposite ends of her room "did I walk in on something?"

"No, Angel was just leaving" Buffy said as Spike just looked back and fourth between the two

"Spike" Angel said nodding his head to Spike

"Peaches" Spike replied

"Well.I was on my way" Angel said, "thanks for today's tutoring session"

"Last tutoring session.no more" Buffy said and walked in her bathroom and slammed the door

"What the hell did you say to her?" Spike asked Angel

"Better watch that girlfriend of yours Spiky, don't think she is actually quite over me"

"Is that right?" Spike asked

"Yeah, still pretty feisty" Angel said and walked out of the room, leaving Spike something to think about

"Is he gone?" Buffy asked from the bathroom entrance

"What happened.cos from where I was.I walk in and see you both in opposite ends of the room, you looking unconfutable, avoiding Angels gaze.then your mysterious disappearance.then him saying I better watch you, you seem to be being a bit feisty toward him-"

"BULLSHIT!"

"Oh is that right?" Spike asked not believing her

"Want to know what he said.that I shouldn't trust you.in his words... he is a guy Buffy, just like me, I was trustworthy for 3 & a half years.all guys cheat one way or another.and that upset me, he tried to put things in my head, make me think that you could be with some other girl, while with me" she finished

"And what, you just believe him?"

"No.it's just."

"Okay my turn to say. BULLSHIT!" he practically yelled "I will never hurt you.not after wanting you for so long, and now I finally have you, I'd be honestly stupid to ruin something this bloody good"

"I know," she said as they just looked at each other

"Do you actually think that I would hurt you?" he asked her afraid of her answer

"No.I'm more convinced that I have more of a chance at hurting you, then you do hurting me," she said as he just nodded.

"Okay then" he mumbled as he sat on her bed "sorry for getting angry"

"It's okay" she mumbled "had every right"

"No, I didn't.I just as usual jumped to conclusions"

"I hate when we argue"

"I know, and it's usually over that bloody Ponce" Spike added

"Seriously.sick of the name calling"

"Can easily say that I am bloody well not"

"Funny" she said as they sat there

"Buffy" Spike said facing her after a moment

"Yeah"

"Do me a favour?"

"What?" she asked curiously

"I hate seeing you both together under any circumstance" he started as she motioned for him to go on "I don't want you speaking to him ever again"

"What?" she said

"You heard me," he said standing up

"I know I did.it's just, if you trust me.you'd let me talk to him"

"I do trust you.just not him, so that is why I don't want to see you with him.if he comes toward you, walk away" he finished

"Fine.so what brought you by?" Buffy said changing the subject

"I'm playing at the Bronze soon.let's go"

"Now?"

"Yep.let's go Goldilocks"

"I look like shit"

"If you looked like shit.I would've said get decent and let's go.but no I am saying Let's Go, so Let's Go" He said.

"Ever?"

"Ever"

"Never ever?"

"Never ever"

"Wow" Cordelia said, "What do you think about it?"

"Well, I have decided to not talk to the guy"

"Buffy-"

"I don't want to ruin what I have with Spike"

"But still, you and Angel have known each other for god knows how long" Willow reminded her as she just stirred the straw around in her drink

"I know, and I know it will be hard, but Angel is trying to ruin everything that is going on between the both of us, and Spike is just trying to stop him" Buffy replied

"Don't really blame Spike" Cordelia spoke up as the three boys walked over and sat down.

"So Buffy, I hear there's a little get together for your 18th birthday.which is coming up in 2 days" Xander spoke up

"Yes, I am 18 in 2 days.no difference though"

"Why say that pet?" Spike asked as he sat next to her

"Still not legal to drink or go clubbing"

"Still have me though, see that as a bonus" Spike said smiling and looked at the entrance "Oh great" he muttered as Angel walked over.

"Spike.a word" was all Angel said and walked out of the Bronze as Spike stood up

"Spike" Buffy said as he looked at her, "behave" she then kissed him as he nodded and walked off "he won't behave" she muttered

"So, what do you want now?"

"Look.I didn't want you to hear this from anyone else but I though that you should know.god this is just-"

"Spit it out"

"Buffy.she told me she was pregnant"

"Buffy she is pregnant.what a load of rubbish"

"She told me this last week"

"How am I suppose to believe this"

"I overheard her talking with Cordelia and Willow behind the bleachers.I asked her about it and she said she was"

"Still don't believe you mate"

"Fine, don't believe me.but I wouldn't lie about this, I'd know something like this wouldn't tear you both apart, and at the moment you know how bad I don't want you both together"

"I still don't believe you, I know for a fact that you are lying.she would've told me"

"Oh really?"

"Yes, really.she'd know that I'd be by her side.so I know that she would never keep something like that from me"

"Then ask her?"

"Look.I have no idea what your bloody game is.but this is the worst that you have come up with.just give it up mate, she doesn't want you anymore, she will never want you again" Spike said stepping closer to Angle who just smirked. "Find it hard to believe"

"Find it funny mate?"

"Yeah, I do" he said casually

"Okay Then, you can find it funny.cause If I see you as to so much look at her for a second, I'll kill you" Spike said

"Just think for a moment there I felt a teeny bit scared that the Big Bad Spike could hurt me, but guess what.the damage you could do to me, I could turn around and do lit a lot worse" Angel said turning serious

"Prove it" Spike said

"Spike.let's dance" Buffy said stepping outside

"Be right there luv"

"No, now!" she said as Angel looked at her

"What do you know.I just looked at her," Angel said and stepping back as Spike raised his arm "go, hit me?"

"Not worth the energy" Spike muttered and walked inside pushing past Buffy

"Better keep that boyfriend of yours down Buff, making up stories that you are pregnant, with his child" Angel said and walked off.

"Why were you looking at me funny all night?" Buffy asked Spike as he walked her to her front door

"Why were you glaring at me all night?"

"I asked you a question first"

"You answer then I will answer"

"Why are you telling people that I am pregnant?"

"No, why didn't you tell me that you were pregnant?"

"Spike.I am not pregnant.so why are you going around telling people that I am pregnant when I am obviously not?"

"I haven't told anyone about you being pregnant.didn't even bloody well find out until tonight, when I spoke to Dark, Tall and Forehead" he mumbled

"He told me.that bastard!" Buffy yelled, "Oh, how I could kill him right now"

"If you want I wouldn't mind killing him for you" Spike said

"Don't"

"Fine.so Peaches tried to make us fight once again"

"I'm afraid so"

"Why are we always bloody getting fooled?" He asked her as she stopped pacing and faced him

"Maybe because he is making us not trust each other" she answered

"We do though.right?"

"For the hundredth time.yes Spike I trust you with my life, my body, my entire soul.right now you make me live.if you weren't here when Angel hurt me.I-"

"Hey.no tears"

"No tears" she agreed and forced a smile "I would still be a wreck right now.I'd be single.I'd be the third well fifth wheel in our group"

"That's how I was once"

"Me.focus please"

"Sorry" he apologized trying to hide a smirk as his girlfriend continued to babble, all he could do was zone out and just look at how beautiful that angel in front of him was, 'my god she is pouting' he said to himself

"Hello.is anyone in there?"

"Sorry luv, kinda zoned out for a moment there"

"Gee.Lot of love in this room.you're not even listening"

"Okay.1. We are outside.no room & 2. Zoned out for a very good reason.kinda got lost looking at you," he replied but quickly changed his tone to hide his romantic side "so it's your bloody fault.you and that pout of yours"

"Suck" she muttered after looking at him for a moment "I'm going to head in for the night"

"You do that" he said and just stood there as she raised her eyebrows "what?"

"Aren't you suppose to leave so then I can head inside and go to bed," she asked him

"Don't I even get a proper goodbye anymore?"

"Well I guess you can," she mumbled

"Good, even if you said no I'd still kiss you either way.did I ever mention how sexy you are looking tonight, actually I wouldn't mind coming up for an hour or two at the most.been quiet awhile since we last.well you know" he said as she kissed him to shut him up from his rambling.

"That felt nice," he said a little dazed as she moved away

"You ready to come up?"

"Yes, I believe I am Captain"

"Rules, be quiet, or you'll wake my mum and sister"

"Well.I'll be quiet if you promise not to scream" he replied as they walked into the house and quietly upstairs.
