Chapter 2- A Night's Surprise
The club was dark and comfortable. Buffy walked in with Willow and the two looked like complete opposites. Buffy wasn't afraid to wear a short black skirt and a fishnet top. Willow was wearing a conservative long black skirt and a pink top. Buffy looked around at all the people dancing and felt a little alone. Her she was with Willow and that nerd Xander, when she could have easily became a popular girl with Cordelia. But she didn't want that life, the life in which she lived in the spotlight and was scrutinized if she made a mistake. "There's Xander." Willow said. She bounced happily over to him and Buffy followed sullenly.
"What's up with you?"
"Nothing." She said in reply to Xander's question. Buffy sat, watching the people on the dance floor. She spotted Spike, the guy from the hallway, and her heart skipped a beat. She didn't understand why he had such an effect on her, or maybe she did. He was the most popular guy in school, with all the money and the attitude. He was the guy that she would have loved to date at Hemery. But she had decided not to live that way, not to date guys who were like that. He was fighting with some dark haired girl that she hadn't seen at school. "Who's that?" She asked Willow.
"Who?" Buffy pointed to the girl with Spike. "Oh. That's Spike's on and off girlfriend, Drucilla."
"Does she go to this school?" Willow shook her head in response.
"She goes to Sunnydale University. Although she treats it as a whore house rather then a school. I heard she has been with almost every guy there and several guys here. She's crazy too."
"Like seriously?" Buffy said. She had stopped looking at the two and was concentration more on Willow and her story. Willow nodded.
"Like she should be in a mental institute. She went psycho on day and bit Spike on the arm, yelling that he cheated on her. Problem was he never did cheat on her. He's real loyal to the girl he is dating; he's been that way since middle school. He loves Drucilla and she just runs around with whomever she wants."
"Sound's like he has the bad end of this relationship." Buffy said. She turned her attention back to the dance floor, only to see Drucilla dancing with someone who wasn't Spike. "Sound's like she doesn't deserve him." She said in a low whisper. Willow didn't hear.
Later that night, after convincing Willow to loosen up, Buffy found herself on the dance floor. Willow was crazy, dancing like she had never danced before, when it occurred to her that someone was watching them. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw his blonde hair come closer to them, and she desperately wanted to leave, before he wrapped Buffy into the bitter feud between him and Drucilla. "Buffy!" She yelled. Buffy turned to her, but was so wrapped up in dancing with some guy that she didn't seem to care about anything Willow had to say. Willow stepped away from the dance floor and looked back. "Damn it." She said to herself.
Buffy was dancing with some guy when she though she heard Willow call her name. She turned around and the girl was gone. Oh well. She thought. She returned to dancing with the guy, when someone tapped her shoulder. She spun around and almost fell from shock. In front of her was Spike. "Mind if I cut in?" He asked, his English accent seducing her to say yes. He began to dance with her, touching her arms and back, making her feel like heaven. A slow song began and he looked at her for permission. She nodded and he took her in his arms. "Sorry I scared you earlier love." He whispered in her ear.
"It's fine." She said. After the shock of dancing with Spike wore off, she remembered the fight she had witnessed and Drucilla with the other man. It was then that she realized she was being used to get Drucilla back.
"My name's Spike."
"Buffy."
"What kind of name is Buffy?" He asked with a smile that made her heart melt.
"What kind of name is Spike?" He spun her, then spun her back into his arms as the song ended. He kissed her, and then let her go.
"Find me and I will tell you." And he left, out of the club and into the night, followed closely by Drucilla. Buffy's night just got amazingly better.
Willow had warned Buffy to be careful; Drucilla was crazy and would really hurt her if she thought that she was with Spike. But Buffy didn't care. She walked home, her head in the clouds, thinking about what Spike had said. 'Find me and I will tell you'. She wondered what that meant. She found her house easily; cause there was someone sitting on her front steps. Despite her better judgment, she just walked up to them. It was Spike. "Hey love." She was shocked to say that least, that in one night she would have so many encounters with the guy.
"How did you know that I lived here?"
"It's a small town." He said getting up. "Not that many people move in here without anyone knowing." She smiled at him.
"Okay. Then what are you doing here?" She figured that the best way to get the guy, despite her better judgment against him, she should play hard to get. She walked past him and sat down on the chairs on her front porch. Her mother wasn't home yet so she had nothing to worry about if she didn't go in.
"I was bored. I figured I'd talk up the new girl."
"And maybe get your girlfriend jealous in the process."
"Ahh." He sat down in the chair facing hers. "You've heard about Dru."
"Not nice thing's I am afraid."
"Yes. She is quite a crazy one. Love her to death though." Buffy had to admit that her heart sank with the thought that he loved her.
"Still haven't told me the real reason that you are here."
"I don't know to be honest. Just wanted someone to talk to who doesn't know my whole life story."
"Un huh." She said trying not to care. "What happened to the big bad guy who thought I was just some loser?" Spike had gotten up and was sitting on the railing of the porch directly in front of her.
"No loser..." He said walking around behind her and leaning to whisper in her ear. "Would wear that to a club in a town she just moved to." He said, letting his lips stay close to her ear. God she wanted nothing more then to kiss him. She said nothing at all to him. He returned to face her, then walked off the porch. He turned back to her and smiled. "Later Buffy." He said and walked away. Buffy sat there until her mother got home, thinking about him.
Buffy walked over to Willow that morning, wearing a pair of black jeans and a tight fitting black tank top. She had worn eyeliner that morning, making her look kind of dark. Willow was slightly amused at Buffy's not-so-subtle attempt to be the girl of Spike's dreams. All Xander cared to see was how hot she was. "Hey guys." She said cheerily, landing beside Willow. Willow smiled at her.
"Did you have a good night?"
"He was at my house when I went home." Willow was kind of shocked. She really thought that he was just using her to make Drucilla mad.
"Tell me about it." She said and Buffy began to tell her about the conversation. She could tell that Buffy liked Spike, but this wasn't the kind of guy that you wanted to get involved with. And Drucilla wasn't the kind of girl that would let you steal him away. Willow tried to listen; she could hear how much Buffy liked Spike, yet she didn't want Buffy to fall into his trap.
Buffy's day was pretty boring and her mom had forbidden her to go out that night, after she found her in a trance on the front porch the night before, four hours after curfew. After telling Willow and Xander that she couldn't go out, she walked home and opened the door. She skipped upstairs, put her stuff up and then looked around the house. Her mother wasn't home. She walked into the kitchen and found a note on the fridge. I went to L.A. for the night. I will be back in the morning. Don't go anywhere. And don't have anyone over. And that was it. That was all that her mother ever really said to her anymore anyways. I am going out. All she did was go out. She must have met someone. Buffy walked into her mother's room and began to run the water in the tub. She put bubbles in and let it run until it filled. Then she cut it off. She slipped her clothes off and went into her room to get candles and her pink satin robe. There was a knock on the door. 'Damn.' She said. She put the candles down, put on the robe and walked down that stairs. "Who is it?" She yelled.
"Spike. Mind if I come in?" She wondered what the hell he was doing here. She went to the door, gathered her self, and then opened it.
She opened the door in a pink satin bathrobe. He was a little surprise, but figured that he had caught her off guard. "Hey love." He said. He placed his hand at the open door and leaned in, trying hard to be sexy and persuade her.
"Hey. What are you doing here?" She instantly felt bad about her harsh tone and he could tell. "Sorry. I mean what's going on?"
"Nothing. Mind if I come in?" He needed a place to crash, but he wasn't about to tell her that. He could tell that she had a crush on him and that she didn't know him very well or Dru for that matter. He figured he would take advantage of her while he could. Maybe even get a little action out of her; he sure as hell wasn't getting any from Dru.
"You can't." He put on his biggest pouty look at her answer. "I don't keep meaning to sound mean, honestly. It's just that my mom isn't here, probably will not even come home at all, and I can't have anyone here." He smiled.
"Come on love. You don't ever dream of goin' against mum's word?"
"I can't Spike. Why don't you stay at Drucilla's?"
"Huh, thought of that. 'Cept I kind of value my life." He winked at her. "Come on. Let me stay." He shot her another sexy look.
"Fine come in." Sweet victory. He thought to himself. He walked in and smiled at her. "I am going to go ahead and take my bath. We have a basement through the kitchen. You want anything let me now."
"Sure thing. Thanks love."
"Yeah." She left up the stairs and Spike made a point to wait until she was in the bath before he insisted that he needed something. His evil little mind at work.
Buffy lit her candles and reran her bath water before getting in. She laid there, thinking about what was happening. She was in a bath and the guy that she had a major crush on was downstairs. Things couldn't end up well.
Note-
Okay so this is the second chapter. Don't worry, I am not making them be together or anything. At this point I think that it is best that Spike doesn't like her. Plus you have to get to know more about her past. Angel might make it into the next chapter, he is in all my stories at least once (got to love him sometimes).
