ENDING FIVE
"God, Im probably going to regret this but.... I wish that Buffy would tell me how she really feels about me." Melina gasped at Spike and then smiled, she gave him a quick kiss on the cheek, then held her forehead to his, their noses touching, their eyes closed and replied, "Done." Buffy had, had enough of this, she stormed over to Spike and the girl sitting at the table, even though she didnt know why she was so angry. "I need to talk to you." Buffy didnt understand why she all of a sudden felt compelled to tell Spike what she felt about him. "Spike my work here is done." Melina whispered into his ear, she kissed his gently on his lips and then gave Buffy one last look before she left. "Yes Buffy?" "There so much that I want to say but I dont ..." Buffy began. "Just say it Buffy." "Fine" She paused swallowing hard before she continued. "Spike I know that I was pretty cruel to you the other day and well .... I ... I just wanted to tell you that you were right about somethings." Spike waited for her to continue. "We do have something here. God I cant believe that Im saying this. You're right, its not pretty but it is there." She drew a deep breath and continued. "Its just that, you and me would be more complicated that me and Angel. And Angel and I were complicated, enough to last a lifetime. No matter what feeling I may have for you they cant ever see the light of day. And I wont lurk in the shadows anymore. My heart been stomped on, stepped on and kicked. I really cant go through that right now. Im sorry." Buffy turned to leave, but Spike grabbed her arm. "Fine then, a dance. Its all I ask." Buffy passively agreed as Spike led her to the dance floor. As soon as the song began to play Spike wondered if Melina had requested it for him.
Buffy kept a safe distance from the vampire not wanting to give the wrong idea.
There'll be some lovemaking heartbreaking soul shaking
What's it gonna be
Buffy moved closer toward Spike resting her head on his chest.
There'll be some lovemaking heartbreaking soul shaking
What's it gonna be
Buffy swallowed hard as the words of the bridge resonated in her mind.
What's it gonna be Cuz I can't pretend I said that youve got the right to loose control yeah Dont let go Dont let go cause I cant take it
Spike rested his chin on top of her head.
What's it gonna be Loose control yeah Whats it gonna be Dont let go Dont let go
As the song ended Spike could hear her heart pounding in her chest. She looked up at him confused and walked back toward the gang who looked absolutely flabbergasted at the Slayer. Spike smiled to himself and whispered to himself, "Im not giving on you Buffy."
