Chapter 6: I'm Fine

Oz walked quickly over to the front desk. "May I have the room number of Buffy Summers?"

Spike quickly catch up Oz and peered over Oz's shoulder.

"Are you a family relative?" The nurse asked politely.

Oz shook his head. "We're close friends,"

The nurse fixed her papers on her desk. "Well, sorry sir, we can't give you the room number unless you are related to her,"

Spike pushed Oz to the side and leaned over the desk angry. "You bloody well better give us that damn room number or I swear to bloody god I will rip you into two," Spike said slamming his fist onto the desk.

The woman stood there with her eyes wide open.

Oz grabbed the Spike to the side. "We don't want to get kicked out man,"

Spike threw his hands in the air. "Don't these people have any bloody consideration?"

"Oz!"

Oz turned around spotting Willow. "Will!" He quickly walked over to her and gave her a light hug. "Is Buffy alright?"

Willow nodded. "She's just kind of out of it," Willow spotted an angry Spike peering at her. "Umm, and he looks angry because?"

Oz looked at Spike and looked back at Willow. "Long story,"

A nurse came up to Willow. "Are these two gentlemen with you?"

Willow nodded. "Yes they are,"

Spike walked up to where Willow and Oz were and looked at the nurse. "Are we able to see her?" He said softly calming down.

The nurse smiled. "Yes, you can,"

Willow smiled. "I already went you guys, you can go,"

Oz looked at Spike. "You go in first man, I'll stay here and keep Wills company,"

Spike nodded and walked towards Buffy's room.

Buffy played with her fingers and looked around the room. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

The pain that grips you, the fear that binds you

Releases life in me...

There was a light knock on the door.

Buffy quickly opened her eyes. "Come in,"

The door opened slowly as Spike walked in. "Hello pet,"

Buffy twisted her jaw and pursed her lips. "What are you doing here?"

In our mutual shame we hide our eyes

To blind them from the truth

That finds a way from who we are...

Spike closed the door behind him. "Well that was a nice way to say hello,"

Buffy took a deep breath and looked down.

Spike grabbed a chair and sat close to Buffy's bed. "Just came to see if you were alright,"

"Well I'm fine, you can go now," She said crossing her arms.

Spike was just beginning to give up. "What happened?"

Buffy looked away and spoke softly. "What makes you think something happened?"

Please don't be afraid when the darkness fades away

The dawn will break the silence, screaming at our hearts...

Spike bit his tongue lightly. "Why else who you have fainted,"

Buffy shot her head quickly to him. "Why is it any of your concern?" She yelled out to him.

Spike raised his eyebrow. "Bloody hell woman, I'm just trying to-"

"Trying to what, huh?" She said tears welling up in her eyes. "Want to know so badly? My mother died!" She looked away quickly.

My love for you still grows, this I do for you

Before I try to fight the truth my final time...

Spike stood there shocked. "Love, I'm so sorry, I-" He went to reach for her hand.

Buffy snapped her hand back. "Just leave,"

Can't wash it all away

Can't wish it all away

Can't cry it all away

Can't scratch it all away...


"Buffy," Spike said softly.

Buffy looked at him. "What do you want from me? You sure don't know what its like,"

Spike planted his lips together and took a deep breath. "My mother died also,"

Buffy lifted her head and closed her eyes. She was shocked. "I'm sorry-"

Spike shook his head. "I know what you're going through, bloody hell, I cried like a girl,"

Lying beside you, listening to you breathe

The light that flows inside of you, burns inside of me...


Buffy looked down.

Spike reached out to touch her hand. "It's just, you're not alone,"

Buffy didn't flinch this time. She watched his hand touch hers as she lifted her head to look in his eyes.

"But it hurts so much," She said not trying to make tears come down form her eyes.

Hold and speak to me of love without a sound

Tell me you will live through this

And I will die for you...

Spike lifted his other hand to touch her face. "But sooner or later, you'll find out, everything will be just fine," He touched her cheek lightly. "Just watch and see,"

Buffy closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

Cast me not away, say you'll be with me

for I know I cannot bear it all alone...


"Spike, I-"

Suddenly the door opens.

Spike replaced his hands on his lap as Buffy and he looked towards the door.

"You okay Buff?" Oz said softly.

Buffy nodded.

"That's good," Oz smiled.

Can't fight it all away

Can't hope it all away...

Spike got up and looked towards Buffy. "Well I should go; I got a bloody project to do,"

Spike stalked towards the door. "You be good, Summers," With a smirk on his face, he left the room.

Can't scream it all away

It just won't fade away...

Willow walked over to Buffy. "Buffy, are you going to be alright?"

Buffy watched as Spike left the room and smiled. She looked over at Willow and said, "I'm going to do just fine,"

I try so hard...

TBC...
