Chapter 5 - The Song - Complete
Buffy sulked around the apartment in nothing but a robe.
She should have been happy that she was going out somewhere with
Willow, but the reality that Spike left her just hit her, and hard.
She would never see him again, never be held by him again, never make
love with him again, nothing. A big gallon of nothing.
She plopped on her couch with a pint of chunky monkey and a bottle of
very cheap wine.
She would eat a spoonful of ice cream then down some wine.
She flicked on the TV to "Passions". Spike loved that show.
Timmy was always getting stuck down that bloody well. She remembered
him saying to her.
Buffy's hair was a wreck and her make-up wasn't even applied.
She continued to drink the wine ti! ll she was tipsy then went to get
ready for going out.
Buffy had finished getting ready, her make up wasn't as dark as the
last few days and her skirt wasn't as short or her shirt to
revealing. Satisfied, she picked up the phone to call Willow.
Spike hated this, not being able to see Buffy, he realized he made a
huge mistake in leaving her, he was just scared like most guys were
but he had to figure out a way to work it out.
Just then the phone rang, Spike leant over to pick it up.
"Hello?"
"Spike its Xander, I'll pick you up in ten minutes."
"Fine." He said hanging up.
Spike really wasn't in the mood to get ready so he left his hair the
way it was, in curls. He slid on a form fitting shirt, his regular
black jeans and his duster.
Xander honked the horn again waiting for Spike. Finally he appeared
out of the door and walked towards the car.
"I'm coming you wanker. Hold on."
He said as he slid into! the car.
"So lets go." He said getting impatient. Xander d! idn't kn ow what his
problem was or if he just wanted to drink Buffy problems away, and he
was going to have a big surprise.
Willow honked the car horn once more.
Buffy finally walked out of the apartment. She saw her walk down the
stairs and she wasn't exactly doing it well.
Buffy finally made it to the car.
"Buffy, are you drunk?"
"Well, I'm drink enough to not be able to walk down stairs well,
but I'm sober enough to say I'm just a bit tipsy."
"Huh uh." Willow said as Buffy gets into the car.
"Lets go." Willow said, speeding off.
Willow and Buffy arrived at exactly twelve. They sat down
at the bar; Willow wondered why they weren't here yet while Buffy
ordered a drink.
Buffy was making fun of the people singing when Spike and Xander
walked in.
Xander spotted Willow and headed over.
"Hey guys" Xander said, Buffy turned around to be faced by Spike.
"What the hell?" Buffy and Spike said in unison. Buffy got up ! to walk
out when Xander grabbed her.
"No. We have decided we are going to make you guys stay here all
night until you workout your problems."
"What? No." Buffy said
"Or." Xander piped in.
"Or what?" Spike asked
Willow interjected. "You guys will sing one song together."
"Fine, I'd rather sing then stay here all night." Buffy whined.
"Me too." Spike said pouting.
Buffy and Spike honestly weren't in the mood to fight with their
friends and they felt singing one lousy song wouldn't hurt.
"Fine." Willow said. "You two go up there and we'll pick a song."
"Fine." Buffy said with her arms crossed as they she stomped on
stage, behind them was a dark red curtain that led back to a storage
room.
Xander and Willow looked through the songs. "I can't believe we
didn't think of a song for them to sing."
"I know." Xander said looking. "Lets just close ours eyes and pick
one."
They closed their eyes and their fingers lande! d on the same one.
They smiled as the music started playing! .
It sounded like country. The words appeared on the screen and Spike
started to sing.
"Living my life in a slow hell
Different girl every night at the hotel
I ain't seen the sun shine in three damn days
Been fuelin' up on cocaine and whiskey
Wish I had a good girl to miss me"
He continued to sing as he looked over to buffy standing next to him
and he smiled then continued.
"Lord I wonder if I'll ever change my ways
I put your picture away
Sat down and cried today
I can't look at you
While I'm lying next to her
I put your picture away
Sat down and cried today
I can't look at you
while I'm lying next to her"
Buffy saw her part was coming next and she started to sing.
"I called you last night in the hotel
Everyone knows but they won't tell
But their half-hearted smiles tell me something just ain't right
I've been waiting on you for a long time
Fuelin' up on heartaches and cheap win! e
I ain't heard from you in three damn nights
I put your picture away
I wonder where you've been
I can't look at you while I'm lying next to him
I put your picture away
I wonder where you've been
I can't look at you while I'm lying next to him."
Buffy paused as the music played then continued.
"I saw you yesterday with an old friend "
Spike's turn
"It was the same old same how have you been "
BOTH
"Since you've been gone my world's been dark and grey "
Spike
"You reminded me of brighter days"
Buffy
"I hoped you were coming home to stay
I was headed to church"
Spike
"I was off to drink you away"
BOTH
"I thought about you for a long time
can't seem to get you off my mind
I can't understand why we're living life this way
I found your picture today
I swear I'll change my ways
I just called to say I want you to come back home
I found your picture toda! y
I swear I'll change my ways
I just called to say I wan! t you to come back home
I just called to say I love you, come back home"
They finished and everyone clapped Buffy feeling a little embarrassed,
started to walk off the stage but spike grabbed her arms spun her
around and kissed her, hungrily.
Buffy pulled away breathing heavily. She looked angry but she smashed
her lips to his.
She jumped and wrapped her legs around his waist.
God they both missed this so much. Holding and feeling each other.
They had forgotten they were on stage. Willow and Xander high fived
each other thanking themselves on a job well done. Spike carried
Buffy behind the curtain never breaking the kiss.
He pushed her up against a wall and unzipped his pants and lifted her
skirt.
They had forgotten how good it felt to be together. He moved her
panties aside.
Spike grabbed his cock and positioned himself at her entrance. They
broke the kiss and just looked into each other's eyes and he thrust
in.
"I now pronounce you man and wife, you may kiss the bride." The
Minster said as Buffy and Spike kissed.
Everyone in the church clapped as they walked down the isle. All
this, and Spike was afraid of it. He had regretted leaving her but
they made it through. This second, this moment in time was the
beginning of the rest of their lives.
