Chapter 1
Buffy walked through the graveyard twirling her stake. "Hear little vampies," She said and clicked her throat as if calling a dog, "I'll give you a treat!" "Ooh, is it a cookie?!" Spike said with false excitement as he walked up behind her. Buffy turned around to see him and a smile crossed her face, "Hey," she said walking backwards, "Sorry, just a little slow around here.kinda creepy actually." "And havin a sodding vampire attack you isn't?" he asked tilting his head slightly. She thought for a moment, "Good point.hey, wait, you were supposed to be watching Dawn." "Yeah, Will came over and she said she'd take over Dawn-watching for a while," He answered pulling out a cigarette, "and could you blame me for taking up the opportunity, all that talk of 'cute boys' and hair products made me a little antsy to say the least." Buffy smiled, "Yeah, sorry about that but somebody had to do this and well, you got the short straw." Spike sighed and leaned against a headstone, "Ah, not like I got anything better to do." Buffy leaned against another headstone. "Looks like it's gonna be a slow night," Spike said lighting the cigarette, "why don't you head home?" "I kinda just wanted to get out of the house." Buffy replied, "I've been feeling a little alone-timey lately." "Yeah," he replied, "I've felt like that before.come to think of it, I've felt like that for about 100 years." Buffy sighed and looked up at the stars, "You know," she said still looking up, "It's weird to think, I spend most of my waking hours outside, at night, in the dark, but I never really stopped to look at the stars." "Ah, you're not missin' much," he answered looking up also, "I spend all my waking time in the dark, and it gets kind of bloody annoying sometimes." "What do you mean?" She asked looking at him. "Well, it's all I see, all I have to look at, and It's supposed to make you feel all serene and calm and all that bloody mumbo-jumbo about God and the holy spirit but all I feel Is that I'll never get to." he cut off. "What?" she asked looking at him sadly. ".That I'll never get to go to Heaven or." He said and looked at her, "Bloody hell, I sound like a sodding child whining about how bad my bloody life is." "No," she said standing up, "You don't." His eyes softened at her sweet words. Something sat watching from the bushes. "You should go," he said, "the niblit'll be worried." She sighed and looked at her watch, "ah, you're probably right.you coming with?" "Nah," he answered, "thought I'd get in a bit of violence before bedtime." She smiled and walked off. The thing from the bushes steps out as Spike walks out of sight. It had red eyes and black scaly skin and had sharp teeth. "I think I'm going to love Sunnydale." it said and smiled.
