A/N I know I shouldn't be starting a new story when I don't even have time for my other story, but this idea just wouldn't leave me alone. Italics are Spike's thoughts.
Day 1
No, no, no, no...Please, God, no.
Xander stiffly carried Anya back to the Summers' home. Tara and Willow clung to each other, Willow sobbing loudly as silent tears travelled down Tara's face. Giles, as British as ever, guided Dawn, who was surprisingly calm, behind the two witches. Spike refused help from anyone. Blood and tears mingled and fell down his face, spilling over his beaten and bruised body as he struggled to return back to Revello Drive.
Upon reaching the house, it hit Spike like a ton of bricks. She was gone. He fell to the ground as loud sobs racked his body.
"It should've been me," he whispered. "Why wasn't it me?" He screamed. Dejectedly he continued, "I don't know how to live without you, pet."
He sat down on the back porch, remembering the night he found her there.
I am beneath you.
He prepared himself for the first time he would meet a sunrise in over one hundred years.
As dawn approached, Giles came outside to sit on the porch beside him. "We still need you, Spike. Buffy needs you. To help us and to protect her."
"Til the end of the world, even if that happens to be tonight," he mumbled softly.
But my world did end tonight, why couldn't I end along with it?
You had such grace in the end.
I wish I could remember what colour your eyes were
but every time I looked at you my mind went blank.
You had the best damn Sunday dress at the end of the world.
The wall of flames that consumed you and everything that was good,
"not with a band but a whimper."
What would you do?
Arms spread welcoming the impending nothing.
You had such grace in the end.
I wish I could remember what colour your eyes were
but every time I looked at you my mind went blank.
So what do you guys think? I promise it won't be totally angsty and Buffy will make an appearance, but it won't be like how she came back on the show. Is it worth continuing? Please review and let me know what you think. The song is "Jubella" by Alexisonfire
