In a Room

Chapter 6: The Fun of Truth or Dare.

The group sat in a circle, ready to start. Despite the unhappy Buffy, Xander was going to start. Xander wasn't so sure he wanted to go first, let alone play the game. Everyone but Buffy felt that way, though for fear of what the insane slayer would do they all played. Angel was a little, dare I say it, fearful of what Buffy would do if and when it came out about Dorelia.((I should've wrote this down, I don't remember how to spell it..... yes, am I not the smart one.... sigh well, oh well, you should all know who I mean and I will do my best to spell it right next chapter.. I will...)) He knew buffy had gone, well, insane. He wouldn't put it past her to do something much like she had done to the other vampire who my friend said was hotter,Spike. (I don't agree....)

"Can we get started now?"Buffy more of demanded then asked. The threat was clear in her voice, she wanted to start and start now.

"Well, ok.... Spike Truth or Dare?"Xander asked.

Spike thought for a moment,"Dare. I doubt you can come up with anything I would hate to do."

"Well, I dare you to stand in the bath room for twenty minuets,"he said simply. The thing about that was the fact it wasn't nearly as nice as when they all had first found it. A few people had made the place really not pleasant to be in.

After a glare, Spike walked into the bathroom. The group know had twenty minuets to wait to continue the game...

Alex ran and ran, she didn't know where she would stop. Tears fell from her eyes. "Miss, what's wrong?"a young girl asked. She had short brown hair and fair skin. She wore a bright green tee shirt with a jean jacket over that and a pair of jeans.

"Nothing that you could do anything about..."Alex cried.

"I'm sure I could. My name is Michaela and I'm sure I can help you. Just tell me your problem,"she said. Though Alex couldn't see, or didn't want to see rather, Michaela had an odd red tint to her eyes.

"Well... you see..."She soon told her everything that was going on. "Now I don't know what to do.. I can't let my brother kill them..."

A grin came over Michaela's face. "So, he wants to kill the slayer? Well, can't have that now can we? I'll take care of your brother, all you need is to lead me back to where he is.."

"Ok, follow me. Thank you..."Alex said.

"Xander, that was cruel!"Willow stated as Spike came out.

"Well, it's my turn now. Buffy, Truth or Dare?" Spike said.

"Truth,"she said simple. Angle looked at Spike knowing that Buffy was going to lean what she wanted to next turn. Spike just smiled and returned Angel's look.

"Who do you love more, Angel or me?"he asked,"or, was it really all a lie what we did?"

Buffy glared at Spike. "Spike, this isn't fair."

"Life isn't fair Buffy. Answer the question. Or, we could just stop the game right now and then none of us have to do anything."Spike said.

"I want to know this,"Angel said.

Buffy looked down,"I.... I don't know.... I really don't know....... I love Angel..... but... I do have feelings for Spike......."She said. "I'm not sure I want to play anymore... I want to think about this.........."she said, moving to the corner. Why did Spike have to ask that? Was it that he didn't want her to ask Angel was Spike told him? That had to be it. "But, I want to go first. Angel, truth or dare?"

"Buffy.. I thought you didn't want to play anymore..."Angel said.

"Angel,"she said, clearly upset,"truth or dare?"

Angel sighed,"Dare."

"I dare you to tell me what Spike told you, the thing you don't want me to find out about,"Buffy said.

"Buffy.. I don't want to hurt you... "Angel said.

"Angel, answer the question!"Buffy screamed.

"Well.. what happened was...."Angel soon explained everything about Cordy, Conner (sp?) everything.

Buffy gasped, and then looked down. She couldn't believe this was happening... Was it that Angel didn't love her anymore? Had him moving away really torn them apart? Why did she just want to cry now? Nothing made sense anymore... "Buffy, I'm sorry..."Angel said.

"Leave me alone, everyone! I want to be alone!"she screamed.

"This is all your fault! You know that?!"Angel yelled at Spike. "I'll kill you myself."

"No, I won't let you Angel...."Buffy told him.

"Buffy...."

"Don't even talk to me!"Buffy screamed at him. "Or, I will kill you! Don't.. Don't think I can't.... I can...... and... I will..... if I must...."

Angel looked down. He hated being trapped in here, but now it just got worse. He just wanted out and to get away. He couldn't help Buffy, no matter how much he did love her he couldn't help her. Being with Buffy again made him remember everything they had, everything they went through together... When he looked at how upset she was now.. it hurt him, it really did.

"Well, this is great,"Giles said, cleaning his glasses yet again.

"Giles, if you don't stop cleaning your glasses then I will smash then while they are on your face,"Spike threatened. Giles didn't say anything, but he did stop cleaning them.

"What do we do now?"Willow asked.

"Not much we can do.... we just have to hope this all blows over...... or, we're all going to die,"Xander pointed out.
