Warning: this has high Fluffyness! And probable in a latter chapter there will be a torcher scene that'll be rated R, but don't worry the way I'll write the next chapter you'll be able to skip that chapter without getting lost and I'll put a warning the chapter before and on it.
To Love Again
Chapter 1
Confusion and Worry
Buffy was out on patrol with Spike. She was not herself that night, or to be more precise she hadn't been herself since they had sex by accident two weeks ago, and Spike picked up on it, she nearly got herself killed 10 times by her zoning out, nearly staked him 3 times for no reason, and tried to kill a vamp by staking it in the head.
"Huhh Buffy...are you okay?" he asked concern radiating from his eyes.
"Huh?...yeah I'm fine" she said trying not to show that she was happy that he cared about her, "why?"
"Are you sure Love? Cause you aren't acting like yourself" he said, stopping her from moving, so she was forced to answer him.
"Oh yeah I'm fine, I'm just...tired" she said and thought 'you bet I'm tired, tired of dealing with my heart and feelings!'
"If you're tired go home and rest, I can finish out here" he said in a caring and persuasive voice.
"No, I need to be..." she tried to say but was cut off.
"You're no good to us dead" or me he wanted to add.
"Fine, fine, But I want you to report back to me" she said in a defeated voice.
"I will, even if it's daylight out" he said seeing the uncertainty in her eyes he added, "I promise, now go"
Buffy sighed and moved to kiss him goodbye, but changed her mind and said them instead, then she tuck off heading for home.
Spike watched her leave, groaned at not getting a kiss, but he didn't stay like that forever for he had the rest of the patrol to do.
