part 2


'How could I have let this happen?' thought Buffy as she struggled to fight=
back the tears. 'How could I let this happen, to her of all people? She did=
n't deserve this. She deserved to live a life without having to worry about=
things like this. She deserved to be the happy, caring, nervous and shy pers=
on that she always had been. She deserved to grow old and die in the arms of=
a loved one. How could I have let this happen?'

"Hey Wills, wanna go Bronzin' tonight?" asked Buffy of her redheaded friend=
.

"Sure, meet you there at nine?" She replied.

"Nah, I'll get you at you're house. It's too dangerous to go on your own, w=
ith Faith on the prowl." Responded the blonde.

"Buffy, I'll be fine, don't worry about me." Willow said, but was interrupt=
ed by the bell for fifth period. "I'll meet you there at nine. Bye!"

*	*	*

'She said that she'd be fine, that I was worrying too much. I agreed to qui=
ckly, it's my fault. If I'd been more insistent, Willow would be fine, inste=
ad of?of'

*	*	*

Buffy anxiously looked at her watch. It was half past nine, and Willow was =
no-where in sight. This wasn't like her. She was usually so punctual.

"Where is she?" she asked impatiently, getting worried about her friend. Xa=
nder was also getting worried, and his eye was constantly on the door, anxio=
usly waiting for the quirky redhead to appear.

"I dunno Buff, maybe we should go look for her."

"Yeah, I think we'd better"

*	*	*

'If we'd gone looking sooner, maybe we would have found her in time. If I h=
adn't waited so long, maybe she'd be fine, maybe she wouldn't be?be?'

*	*	*

"Oh my God! Willow!" shouted Buffy as she noticed her redheaded friend lyin=
g in a pool of her own blood in an alley just outside the Bronze. "Call 911!=
" Buffy yelled at Xander who was just looking on, dumbfounded. "Xander! Go!"=
She yelled once more as Xander headed back inside the Bronze to find a phon=
e. Buffy cradled the inert form of her best friend in her arms, rocking it b=
ack and forth gently.

"Willow! Willow! Wake up! Please Willow! Please wake up!" Buffy screamed as=
she burst into tears.

*	*	*

'If I had been a better friend, if I had acted quicker, if I had done somet=
hing sooner, Willow would?its all my fault!' Buffy could no longer hold back=
the tears and soon was a blubbering wreck. 'It's all my fault. I couldn't p=
rotect her, and now my best friend is?is' Buffy curled up into a ball, and s=
till crying, she began repeating to herself over and over again: "It's all m=
y fault!" 


hope you guys liked
