Welcome home Buffy."The killer whispered to himself as he followed her car with his eyes,"I will taste you again."He licked his lips and walked out from behind the sign rubbing his rough hands together.
Buffy continued to drive down the streets of Sunnydale, looking behind her every once in a while making sure that no one was following her.
She slowed as she drove up to The Bronze.She recognized the bouncer at the door taking the peoples money and letting them in."Calm down, Buffy. Everything is going to be fine.There is no reason to freak out."She told herself but after that last word there was a thumping at her window.
She jumped and almost hit her head on the top of the car.She looked out the window to see Xander and Cordielia peering in at her.She rolled down the window slowly,"Hey guys."
"Buffy,you look,um...incredible?"Cordielia said but she sounded like she was asking if Buffy looked incredible not telling her.
"Yeah.So.What are you doing back in Sunnydale?"Xander asked bouncing on his heels as he held Cordielia's hand.
"Um,spring break.I'd ask what you do were doing here but surprisingly you two live here.Together.Still.Unlike any of us."
"Thanks.Well it was nice seeing you bye."Cordielia turned to walk away but Xander firmly held onto her hand.
"You wanna come inside with us.Oz's band is playing?I think they just got back from Arizona."
"Oz playing at The Bronze,"Buffy began,"Are you guys sitting with the rest of the gang or is it just us doing a flashback to high school?"They all laughed but Cordielia sounded bored not entertained,"I guess I'll come inside."She parked her car on the curb and dug out her wallet.
"Hey Tyrone."She said to the bouncer as she handed him her money then hugged him.
"Buffy!Hey.How's law school going?"He asked returning her hug.Saddly she hadn't even gotten a hug from Xander or cordielia.
"Well,boring but it'll pay well."
"Okay.See you later and don't be a stranger."
"I won't."She walked inside and heard a slow rock ballad playing.
"Let's dance.Buffy our table is over there.Watch our drinks."Cordielia pointed to the table that they all used to sit at.She looked into one of the drinks and saw her reflection.Then someone else appeared behind her but she couldn't make out who it was.
"Well,well,well look what the cat dragged in."Buffy recognized the voice immediatly and turned around.
"Darla hey!I mean hi."
"What no hug?"She pulled Buffy into a hug and Buffy quickly pulled away and saw a the look on Darla's face.She looked hurt.
"So,what school do you go to?"
"Um I go to UCLA.Like we had planned to do but I guess that didn't work out.How about you.What school are you going to?"
"I go to California Western School of Law.I'm gonna be a social services lawyer."
"Oh.Well,have you seen Angel.I heard that he was coming home for spring break."
"Well you heard right.Hi Darla.Angel will be here in just a minute."It was Spike.
Buffy felt flushed like she was gonna pass out.The last time she had spoken to him was at the end of junior year.She remembered exactly what happened.
*******
Buffy ran up to Spike and hugged him tightly,"I love you."She kissed in passionatly on the lips but he pulled away,"What's wrong?"
"Buffy things aren't working out."
"What do you mean?"
"Buffy,"He began.
"Stop saying my name like that."Tears were welling up in her eyes because she knew what was coming.
"Buffy,things aren't working out,"He said slower this time,"Ever since he raped you,you won't let me touch you even see you.I need more than,Oh I love you Spike.Kiss kiss hug hug."
She slapped him across the face,"You bastard.How dare you talk to me like that!Do you even care about how I feel?No,don't answer that.I know you don't just by saying that."
"Buffy please calm down.It's not that I don't care I am so-"
"Apoligize to me and I'll kill you.How dare you!"
"Buffy."
"Get the fuck away from me.I though you loved me.No, I thought I loved you."She stormed off crying and when she turned around she saw Spike making out with Harmoney.
*******
"Buffy.Buffy.Hello."Darla said moving her hand in front of Buffy's face.She came out of her daze and looked at Spike.
"Hi Buffy."He said leaning in for a hug but she backed up.
"William."
"How've you been?"
"Well I was fine,until I saw you.Darla when Cordielia and Xander are done dancing tell them I went home.I can't be here any more.It was good seeing you again Darla."
"You too Buffy.I'll be by later maybe."She was about ot give Buffy a hug but she had already left.
"Bye Tyrone."
"Bye Buffy."
