Author's note: This is my first fic, all comments greatly appreciated!

Buffy was wandering around England; she had a few hours to kill before her flight and was feeling rather antsy. She had a strong urge to kill something.

After dusting two fledgling vamps she came across a night club with its entrance hidden down an alleyway protected by a glamour, it reminded her of Caritas in LA As Buffy entered the club, she could feel magic all around her, though none of it felt evil. The club was dark and the dance floor was full, a favourite song of Buffy's came on and she found herself walking to the floor and she began to dance.

Sometime later she felt someone watching her, as she looked up she saw a man about her own age with startling green eyes watching her every move. Although Buffy couldn't explain it, she was drawn to the man. There was something in his eyes that captivated her. Slowly they moved towards each other, and in silent acceptance his arms encircled her waist and they moved in time with the music.

Five songs later they were still wrapped around each other, Buffy could feel the desire burning inside waiting to be unleashed.

Her thoughts where taken back to the night after she first met Willow and the advice she had bestowed upon her

"Live in the moment" she'd said.

"When was the last time I took my own advice" she asked herself.

Buffy looked up into his eyes and, for some unknown reason, she trusted him. She couldn't explain it even if she tried. She felt that they were kindred.

"Do you want to get some air?" she eventually asked

He looked into her eyes and one word escaped his lips, "Sure."

The two made their way outside the club back into the alleyway, He reached down and took her hand in his, Buffy looked up at him and smiled, for the first time in a long while it reached her eyes.

A few steps later Buffy felt a familiar tingle, alerting her to the arrival of a vampire. "Shit" she said and quickly turned around.

There were four vampires behind them, as she turned back their was another five in front, Buffy calmly reached into her jacket and produced two stakes, she handed one to him and said, "Aim for the heart."

With that she lunged at the vampires, she could hear her companion speaking Latin and felt the magic in the air, different from Willow's Wicca magic but good magic all the same. Once she had dealt with the vamps at her end she turned to watch the last one being taken down by her companion.

He turned to look at her, and she looked at the two sticks he was holding, one was her stake and the other ... was that a wand?

The pair stood and looked at each other, neither wanting to be the first to explain their actions. Suddenly Buffy's earlier words came back to her.

"Live in the moment."

She slowly walked forwards and as he was about to open his mouth to speak, she placed a finger over his lips and shook her head.

He looked into her eyes and knew that the same need he was feeling was mirrored in his own eyes.

Neither knew who moved first just that they were suddenly devouring each other with their lips, Buffy wrapped her legs around his waist and he placed her against the wall. Neither one spoke as their bodies joined as one, it was quick hard and fast, but it was what they both needed. Their foreheads were pressed together as they both came down from their release. Buffy slowly lowered her legs and moved to straighten her skirt; once they were both decent Buffy leant down and picked up her thong which she placed in her companion's pocket with a wink.

The two looked at each other and laughed, just as it occurred to Buffy that she didn't even know his name, she saw his friend's leaving the club- a few of which had obviously been in a fight after two many drinks- she could tell they needed a hand. Buffy looked at her watch, it was already 2.30am; she had to be at the airport by 3.30 to catch her flight to LA With one last kiss Buffy sent him to help his friends, and in a blink of an eye she was gone. Buffy knew she would never forget their tryst in the alley, she didn't however know their would be consequences.

Five weeks later Buffy sat on the toilet a white stick in her right hand and a watch in the other, the minutes ticked by slowly, when the allotted time was up she turned the stick around ... two blue lines had appeared.

"Oh god" she said through her tears.
