A/N Yes I brought in Lorne! Hope you like it. Oh, and 'Faith in Yourself' is an original song I wrote.
"I have to what?" Buffy asked.
"Sing, Lorne can't help you unless you sing. His power is connected to vocal melodies some how," Spike explained. "Please don't make me try to explain it. Actually it's quite fun."
"Fun for you maybe, I never sing. Okay maybe a couple of times at home, but in public, in front of an audience. Forget it." Buffy insisted.
"Spike, I see you brought the Slayer interesting choice, however I can see the attraction." Lorne smiled coming over to their table.
"Lorne, this is Buffy. Buffy this is The Host, he runs this place." Spike started the introductions.
"Nice to meet you," Buffy smiled. "How do you get everyone to get along so well?"
"Caritas has a protection spell which makes it impossible to physically hurt anyone in the bar." Lorne explained. "It helps, especially when someone is singing really badly. Although I can't imagine you having that problem."
"I don't know I've never sang in public." Buffy shrugged.
"Well if you're so scared I'll make a deal with you." Lorne assured her. "Put Spike on first and if you're still scared I'll do your reading in private."
"Really?" Buffy asked.
"Really," Lorne assured her.
"You've got yourself a deal." Buffy smiled.
"Wonderful," Lorne smiled back. "Well Spike you're up."
Spike headed over to the stage, sat down and began a soft love song.
He thought he loved you, but it wouldn't last.
You started slow, but ended way too fast.
Now you're all alone and moving on.
Suddenly you feel like hope is gone.
But you've got to have
Faith in yourself.
You'll pull through
Faith in yourself.
In everything you do.
No matter how hard it seems
You'll know what forever means
If you'll only have
Faith in yourself.
"I've never heard anything like it." Buffy gasped at the table.
Lorne smiled even brighter, "You couldn't have, He wrote it himself. So are you ready?"
"Yeah I think I am."
