Chapter 5
Buffy wakes up in a hotel room where she sees all her clothes in the corner were there are suitcases. When she sit up that's when she see Spike sleeping in a chair by the door. "Spike" Buffy calls out softly at first. "Spike, come on now I know you are awake." Spike hears her and sits up to see the pretties' girl he has ever seen. He can't stop looking at her.
"Buffy are you alright?" Spike asks as he is walking to the bed.
"Where are we Spike?" Spike starts explaining that he took her into Waco and got a room for them so she can cry and nobody will look at her as if she was a freak. She looks away from him. She starts to remember why she was crying. (I have nothing keeping me here now, she says to herself.) Spike asks if she is hungry or maybe wants to take a shower. He sees the pain in her eyes.
"You know I have not told you much about me. Were to start," he says while thumping his finger on his leg. "First of all the reports of me being a fake blonde is so true. I bleach my hair, my true hair color will never be known by anyone expect my hairdresser." He looks at her and she is smiling. He thinks (she has a great smile and I hate seeing her sad, so if making an ass out of myself to get a smile then bring on the laughs). He starts to dance around the room, and then takes her hand to dance.
"Stop it, my mom was just found dead and you want to play games." Buffy screams at him.
"No, but I know how it feels to be sad at the lost of a mother. I was just trying to get you to smile is all?"
Buffy looks at him to make sure he is serious or not, "You lost your mom too?"
"Yes, she died when I was younger. She had cancer and died soon after my 13th birthday. She is the one who told me to reach for my dreams and not to give up." Buffy didn't know his mother had died; she hadn't heard that about him, and she had a secret crush on him before now, so she tries to find out a lot about him. Now she knew why he was playing with her, he knew that it was better to laugh then to cry.
"Why is all my stuff here and not at home and what happened to me, how did I get here? How long have I been here?"
"Whoa, slow down Blondie. You have been here all night and its noon so all morning too." He says as he looks at his watch, "I had to bring you here when you passed out in the store where you work. I wasn't going let you stay at that house another night. After getting us a room, I went back for your clothes."
To change the subject he asked her, "Do you remember when you said that you work for the money you get and were not for sale?"
"Yes, I do remember saying that to you. Why?" She thinks now he is going to ask me for sex, to pay for this room.
"Well I have a job for you to do. You are going to come back with me as my personal asst., if that is all right. You will help me to remember to pack other colors besides black when I travel, keep me in line. Make sure I remember to keep my head out of the clouds and no bigger then it already is. Basically you can keep grounded and remind of my goals other then the ones not about my career."
Buffy says in loud voice, "So just like that I am going to leave my life and go with you?" Spike walks to Buffy and kneels in front of her.
"Buffy think of it this way you don't have anything holding you here anymore. You can start a new life, be who YOU want to be. I am just giving you the world and you have to choose to enjoy it. Go for big gold ring on the carousel, it's up to you to do it now." Buffy agrees with him about not having a future here. Therefore, they make plans to go to the next concert together, boss and employee. With strict tasks she will perform for him as his asst. She was not going to be a burden on him she was going to work her butt off.
