Interlude
*M&m's, Kit-kat, gummi-bears........Ah*
Spike grinned like, well, a little kid in a candy store as he grabbed a
bag of Hershey's kisses of the rack and threw them into his shopping
cart. Which was looking rather empty, come to think of it. He frowned at
the solitary packet in the cart. Then reached for a couple more bags of
kisses and dropped them in.
Much better.
He grinned goofily again, completely unaware that this ritual was
somewhat similar to that followed by one Xander Harris every Tuesday.
Boys will be boys, after all, no matter how grown up they might feel.
Satisfied Spike headed to the counter to make his sinful purchase.
A flash of pink and gold caught his attention as he walked past the
magazine rack.
Buffy.
Her back was turned toward him and she was arguing amicably with her
little red - haired friend over some trivial article.
An unexpected feeling of warmth washed over him as he watched them- her.
His heartbeat grew slightly excited, making him frown once more, and his
knees weakened somewhat as his cheeks heated up.
Puzzled, he decided to stop at the pharmacy and buy a thermometer on his
way home.
*****************
Lateness is due to a combination of laziness, exam ness, coldness and
lovesickness which has consequently lead to a lot of confusion (ness?)
and complication in my life. So basically, to sum up in a word I'm late
due to _drum roll_ College!
PS- I want to dedicate a chapter to Miss Kitty because her reviews really
make me laugh. But this is too small a chapter so the next one is
dedicated to her. Go Miss Kitty!
