Disclaimer: Don't own the characters and certainly not the song!
A BIG thank you to everyone who reviewed: Vivid Butterfly, Spikaholic101, Konzen, Neri, M.R.Zero and Kenren Taishou.
Sorry I've taken so long to upload but I have to plead a crashing computer, exams, another WIP fic and having writer's block concerning this particular fic!
Spikaholic101: Of course I've continued it, I couldn't leave poor ol' Spike in such a bad situation, could I!?! (^.~)
Neri: Cecily is only shown in one episode as far as I know, 'Fool for Love' in Season 5, (my personal fav episode cause there are loads of flashbacks about Spike! ).
Btw, if anyone would like me to answer questions more quickly you could leave your email address and I'll get back to you as soon as I can!
The song used is 'Bring me to Life' by Evanescence (actual lyrics in italics/quotes). After running away from the party, William meets Dru who sires him…
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
To fall in love with the one who kills you
Running down deserted streets.
An emptiness inside me so deep.
Worse even than the initial pain.
Then through the darkness you came to me.
"How can you see into my eyes like open doors"I felt you seeing into my mind. Feeling each and every thought.
"Leading you down into my core
Where I've become so numb…"
I did not think it possible that I could ever feel again.
"…without a soul
my spirit sleeping somewhere cold"
I was lost.
"Until you find it there and lead it back home"You brought me back to my senses.
"Wake me up inside"Give me a new reason to fight.
"Call my name and save me from the dark"Pulling me back from the edge with the words you spoke.
"Bid my blood to run before I come undone"A stab of pain at my neck. My life force ebbing away into your mouth.
"Save me from the nothing I've become"
You killed me before I could destroy myself completely.
"Now that I'm without"What I had left, you took.
My blood.
My life.
My soul.
"You can't just leave me"I wouldn't survive being rejected again.
I need you.
"Breathe into me and make me real"You gave me back some of what you had taken.
Though I was so weak, I felt a fleeting moment of strength.
"Bring me to life"I was dying.
But I knew that I would not remain dead.
I could see it in your eyes.
"Frozen inside without your touch without your love"You had to let me go for a while.
"Darling only you are the life among the dead"I know you'll be there to embrace me once more when I awake.
You have made me yours for eternity.
"All this time I can't believe I couldn't see"I was so single-minded – and so sheltered form life.
"kept in the dark but you were there in front of me"
I never realized what lay inside me.
You were the only one who saw my potential.
"I've been asleep a thousand years it seems Got to open my eyes to everything"Everything takes on a new shape when one dies.
I must learn again from the start.
"Without a thought without a voice without a soul"My surroundings fading to black.
I draw the last breath I will ever need.
"Don't let me die here there must be something more"
In my last seconds of consciousness I feel you pick up my lifeless body and carry me away.
I knew that you wouldn't just leave me there.
"Bring me to life"That is what you gave me.
The gift of life.
For it is once I awaken from death that my life shall begin.

A/N: Sorry bout the last chapter cause some of the italics uploaded and some didn't, hope that the same thing doesn't happen this time. I also got some comments for this and my other songfic that the songs aren't exactly well known, well, those are unreleased but if you haven't heard this one, well, what planet are you from!?! *grin*
Please review! Pretty please! (^-^)
