What Next?
Inside the Car: Buffy and Spike were asleep in the backseat. Buffy had her feet laid along the seat and her head in Spike's lap. Her hair was tucked behind her ear and she was in a deep sleep. Spike was sitting up on the right side of the car with his head against the door and his left hand under his head and the other on Buffy's arm. A truck honked its horn as it drove by and Spike jolted up and so did Buffy. They looked around and saw that it was broad daylight out and the highway was more active. A car door shut behind them and they both turned around and saw Xander and Harry's Towing Co.
Xander: Do you know how worried I was?!
(Spike and Buffy looked at Xander and then each other)
Auto Shop: Buffy, Xander, and Spike were sitting outside on a bench when a man approached them.
Man: Cars fixed...just need some oil.
Spike: Oh.
Man: Best to check that next time.
Xander: Yeah...so is the car all set.
Man: Yep just need to make out your bill.
Xander: Okay. (Followed the man into the shop)
(Spike and Buffy stood there and didn't say anything. Spike glanced at Buffy and wondered if he should be the first to speak up or will she about last night. However, the whole time was spent in silence till Xander got back)
Xander: Ready?!
Buffy and Spike: Yeah.
On the Road: Xander was driving and Spike was in passenger seat and Buffy in the back.
Xander: So how was last night?
Spike and Buffy: What?!
Xander: What'd you two do on the side of highway?
Spike: Well...we just—
Buffy: We...
Xander: Youuuuu?
Buffy: We just talked.
Xander: About?
Spike: About...about how we spent Fourth of July in the past.
Xander: Oh... (Smiles) (To Spike) Did you tell Buffy about the time in Central Park that Fourth of July in college? When you—
Spike: Xander!
Xander: When you got drunk and went swimming in the pond.
(Buffy giggle)
Buffy: Oh my god.
Spike: I was drunk. You do a lot of stupid things when you're drunk.
Buffy: (Mumbles) I'll say.
Spike: (Turns to Buffy) What?
Buffy: Nothing.
Gas Station: Xander was pumping gas and Spike was getting a drink at the vending machine. Buffy was sitting on top of a picnic table. Spike got his Coke and went over to Buffy and sat next to her on top of the picnic table.
Spike: So...
Buffy: About last night—
Spike: Yeah? (Turns to her with wondering eyes)
Buffy: I...I don't know what to think...I really didn't plan that.
Spike: Me either...
Buffy: What should we do about it?
Spike: Not sure...what do you think?
Buffy: I asked you first.
Spike: Well...I...
Buffy: I say we forget about it and just (Looks at Spike for a long time and so does he) Forget about it.
Spike: (Nods) (Whispers) Right. (Gets up) See you in the car. (Walks to the car and leaves Buffy there.)
(Buffy turns around to face away from the car and started to wipe away a few tears, that was one of the hardest things she had to do. She gathered up her emotions and walked back to the car. )
