"Well?" The Red-head questions when the Blonde
doesn't respond. Buffy's face suddenly clears up as if a light had suddenlygot
turned on and she had figured out a hugh puzzle.
"I guess I don't have to kill my friends in order
to have an epiphany." Buffy mutteres to herself. "What?!" Willow questiones,
becoming more confused and concerned about the blonde in front of her, just
standing in the middle of the living room, talking to herself. Did she say
kill her friends? Willow's eyes bugs out again for the second time that
night. I Thought she was cured from the poison? Willow's face becomes
one of complete concern, quickly taking her friend's arm and leading her tothe
couch to sit.
"Here Buffy. I'm worried about you, Why don't you
sit down." The Hacker says softly, Well guess I can't have that heart to
heart I wanted with her. Willow frowns inwardly, thoughts quickly passing
her already preoccupied mind. "Once you fall for Willow you stay fallen."
Buffy says to Willow trying to convince her of Tara's Love. If she only
knew. Willow shrugs her shoulders at her thoughts then sits next to the
Slayer.
"Willow! Really. I'm fine. I mean, Yeah staring off
into space, isn't fine, but really it was a good stare!" Suddenly Buffy starts
to pick absently at her shirt, not looking at Willow, Before Willow could
restate her question that was still being ignored, Buffy was up like a jack
rabbit, pacing in front of the Red Head. Goddess, If I didn't knowany
better I would think she was nervous about something. Willow wonders
to herself. Meanwhile Buffy, had stopped in front of WIllow, apparently coming
to an unresolved issue in her head. Then taking Willow by complete surprise, the
Blonde drops to her knees in front of Willow. Oh boy! Here she is in front
of me, probably needing some kind of friend-comfort and all I can think of all
the naughty things she cold do to me, while she was down there! Willow
blushes furiously as her thoughts take a turn toward the gutter. Willow's breath quickly becoming rapid, her heart rate
speeding up.
Do you need me
Like I need you
Or am I standing still
Beneath a darkened sky
Or am I standing still
With the scenery flying by
Or am I standing still
Out of the corner of my eye
Was that you passing me by
"OK Will. I've been doing ALOT of thinkinglately.
What with thinking this whole slayer deal was all an illusion. First, I want to
start by saying..." Buffy suddenly takes hold of Willow's hands, "..You aremy
Best Friend. And I would never ever mean to hurt you.." As
Buffy continues to talk, Willow begins to have a panic attack. Oh my
Goddes!! How did she?? Tara and I just talked..I don't see how???.. Asthe
panic filters across Willow's face, Buffy immediately picks up on it.
"Will! No! You didn't do anything wrong!. I just
..just.." Buffy sighs, "There's really no easy way to say this." Buffy suddenly
looks Willow directly in the eyes. Hazel eyes holding green ones. "Since coming
back from..well, death, ..I..I started having sex with Spike." Buffy suddenly
closes her eyes.
Wh..what??!! Spike?! Vampire?! Spike?!How?!
Where?! What?! Willow blinks. "I..I.Huh?"
Buffy tries to let go of Willow's hands, wanting to
turn away from the incrimination she's sure to see in the most-forgiven-person's
eyes. Willow, sensing what Buffy is trying to do, won't allow the movement,
keeping the Slayer's hands in her own.
"You're in love with Spike?" The red-head
falters a bit, a little bit of her world and heart crumbling. Maybe black
magics aren't so bad after all , comes Willow sudden darken
thoughts.
"What?! Love??!! No-no. Definately a negative.
I-I just. God! I was lonely. I..I..have no excuse, other than, I felt
horrible about coming back, thinking something was wrong with me. Then feeling
horrible when you found out about me and Heaven. Then finding out
Spike can hit me, so something's got to be wrong with me, then..."
Buffy's ramblings start spiraling out of control. Willow would have thought
it cute except...
"Spike can hit you?!!" I'll Kill that no good
bastard, touching MY SLAYER..He'll pay. Wait! My slayer?
"Huh? Oh yeah. No big. Tara told me, my
molecular-what's-a-ma-jigger got moved
around. That's why. I'm the only one he can hurt."
What?! Is she serious? That's enough!
"Buffy. Wait. Spike can hit you. you're having sex with him, but not in love
with him. Tara knows. AND you're unconcerned??"
"Willow, please. Don't blame Tara. I..I.Broke down
and told her..I..just..she was easier to tell then you. You were dealing with
all of your problems with magic, last thing I wanted was to burden you. I begged
her not to tell you.
Begged?? What the Hell,did you do,havesex with
her too?? "I..You know you could have told me. I just get the feeling you
don't trust me" Willow now tries to pull her hands away from the burning look
the Blonde is giving her, worried she is right.
"Wha..What? Trust-Willow! Of Course I trust you!
I..I. Oh boy. This started all wrong. I..I'm not having sex with Spike any more.
I stopped. Buffy shakes her head. Looking Willow directly in the eyes, a small
smile forming on her lips. "I'm IN love with you Willow."
Do you love me
Like I love you
Or am I standing still
