AFTER THE KISS

Buffy and Spike pulled back from the kiss to breath, keeping their foreheads touching. "That was um…Wow" said Buffy.

"Can't think of a better way to describe it" Spike grinned.

Buffy looked up, into his eyes. She could see the lust in them, something she hadn't seen in any guys' eyes. Not even Riley. She had to admit that right then, she wanted him. That thought startled her slightly. She wanted Spike, really wanted him like he was some sort of drug she just got addicted to. Buffy repeated the words over in her head a few times. They were foreign and weird to think about.

Pulling back slightly, she sighed and stood up. "I-I gotta take a shower. It's been a long night." With that she left the room leaving a perplexed Spike in her wake.

Buffy walked into the bathroom wearing her bathrobe and sighed. Sitting on the edge of the tub, she watched blindly as the water filled the tub. She couldn't believe it. Of all the people in this world, she had to have Spike around in her time of need. That, she convinced herself, was the only reason she kissed him. He was there, she was heartbroken so technically it wasn't her fault. Turning the water off, she hoped in and drained the water and instead decided to take a shower, a cold one.

Spike sat downstairs on the back porch chain smoking. "She's gonna be the death of me" he kept repeating. "Lead a man on and…" he trailed off. He let out an annoyed growl as he heard the shower turn off. The erection at the thought of Buffy naked made his pants suddenly uncomfortable. "Bugger" he muttered in anguish before lighting up his third cigarette in the last five minutes.
