Chapter 16 – Did we … you know?
Buffy opened her eyes slowly and met darkness. She felt a soft pillow under her head and a warm cover over her body.
She looked at a clock that was on the bedside table. The green numbers that glowed in the dark told her that it was 10pm. She yawned a little then turned her head and saw spike lying next to her asleep. Her eyes froze, what had happened? She asked herself in confusion. She lifted the cover a little and noticed she was naked. ‘Oh god’ she thought as she covered herself more with the cover. ‘What have I done’ Things from earlier in the day started to come back to her.
“Oh god” she said out loud this time. She slid out of the bed slowly and walked across the room and found a dressing gown on the back of the door. She pulled it around her and tied the rope loosely around her waist.
Spike stirred.
Buffy stood perfectly still as spike reached out an arm to the empty bed next to him.
Spike opened his eyes when he found Buffy wasn’t in the bed next to him. He sat up slowly and glanced around the big dark room. He saw Buffy standing by the door. The moonlight just touching her feet. He leaned back against the head board, “You ok luv?” he asked her.
“Emm I dunno” Buffy said.
Spike watched her, “why whats up pet?” he asked her. The moonlight was on his face making a perfect spot light.
“Did we…. You know” Buffy said not finishing her sentence.
Spike grinned a little, “yeah luv” he said.
“Oh” she said looking down at the ground.
Spike got out of bed and pulled on his jeans. He walked over to Buffy who was still looking at the ground. He put a hand on her shoulder gently. “Hey luv” he said gently.
Buffy looked up into his eyes but didn’t say anything.
“You know I love you” spike said. “And I know you love me to, so maybe we could just try and work things out between us. Have a fresh start”
“I don’t know. I’m not sure why I …..We ……” Buffy didn’t finish because there was a knock on the apartment door.
“You want me to go?” spike asked her as he let go of her shoulder.
“No its ok, I’ll go” she said as she walked out of the bedroom.
Spike sat down on the bed.
Buffy walked into the hall way and opened the door. Light spilled into the dimly lit hallway and living room
. Buffy had to wait a moment for her eyes to adjust to the light.
She looked at the man standing in the doorway, it was Carlo.
