Chapter 6 School

Buffy sitting at her desk, during her first day of school, thinking back to the night she slept with Spike. She hadn't seen him since and she didn't know why she was having feelings of missing him. She never missed anybody. She grew up with people leaving her, why should he be any different. She hadn't spoken to her friends about her escapade with the British blonde, which also was not like her.

Willow stood up when the bell ring and Buffy didn't move she was so in her own thoughts. Willow shoved her lightly on her shoulder to get her attention , Buffy looked at her.

"Yeah, Will. Where's everyone."

"The bell kinda rung. Are you ok?"

"Of cause, why would you ask that dumb question? Not everybody noses stay in books."

Buffy said as she collected her bag and Willow shrugged, they began to walk out the class to the lockers across them. Buffy leaned against some lockers as Willow opened hers and began switching her books out.

Willow starts talking about her girlfriends upcoming birthday and was going on about not knowing what to get her. So she asked a distracted Buffy for suggestion but didn't get a response. So she slammed her locker and her friends jumped giving her a nasty look.

"What the hell? You didn't have to slam your locker just to shut it."

"I didn't mean to. Oh, wait I did."

"Get your mother those strange sage thingy, she walks around the house with. You know she loves the herbal shit."

"I would if it was my mom's birthday I was talking about. It's Tara's" said the red head as they found a seat in the cafeteria.

" Oh, well. I know one thing that wont cost a thing and would be exciting for both of you" Buffy said winking.

" I don't know, Buff. I don't think we're ready for that yet. I want it to mean something when we do it." Willow said not thinking about what effect her words might have on the blond considering her promiscuous nature.

Buffy shrugged her shoulders as her mind went back to Spike, which it did a lot of the past four days since school started. As Buffy was trying to come up with plans of looking for him without looking desperate her friends hand waving in her face began to agitate her.

"Your gonna have to stop doing that it getting freaking annoying, Will."

"What's going on with you lately? Ever since school started you've been in another dimension."

" Nothing."

"Right."

Willow knew Buffy since middle school, so she knew pushing Buffy for answers for weird behavior was only going to make her keep it in. So she decided to ask her about the night at the Bronze when she left with the sexy British guy.

"So, what happened with that guy at the Bronze Saturday? Did ya'll hook up?"

"You mean before or after he beat the shit out of Parker.?"

"Oh! That's what happened to Parker. He said her was mugged."

Buffy chuckled at Parker's attempt to ease his ego.

"He was being such in as last night her deserve it. Anyhow, we fucked. That's it"

"You did?" Willow asked excitedly.

"You fucked who?" came the raspy female voice behind Buffy.
