Chapter three:
Spike got home just in time. His thoughts went from Buffy to
Carmen; he couldn't wait to go to sleep. When he got home he
headed straight into his basement where he slept. It had no
windows and every crack was sealed. Spike made sure of that as he
plopped down on his bed and drifted into a troubled slumber.
"Spike help I need help." It was Buffy. He could hear her voice but
he couldn't see her. "Buffy where are you I cant see you luv." It
was so dark he had no idea where he was or how he had gotten
there. "Please Spike, hurry I need you, hurry before its to late." He
grew frantic and frustrated that he couldn't see her, "Buffy where
the bloody hell are you? What's wrong?" But she said the same
thing she had said before, "Hurry Spike please, before its too late."
He continued to search for her but there seemed to be a never-
ending darkness. Then he heard a scream, "Buffy!" He ran, he
didn't know where he was going but he had to help her. It seemed
like he was running through a never-ending tunnel. He finally
reached the end of the tunnel and there was Buffy lying on the
ground in a pool of blood. "Buffy no!" he gasped when he
approached her blood soaked body and held it, "No Buffy, you
cant be gone not again." Suddenly he heard a voice behind him. It
was Willow and Xander along with all of Buffy's other friends.
"Its your fault! You didn't protect her! You didn't come when she
called you and now she's dead!" Spike couldn't believe it, they
were blaming him, "I tried. I couldn't find her. I loved her. It's not
my fault. Oh Buffy, Buffy!" He sobbed and cried her name
repeatedly. Spike awoke in a pool of sweat. "It was a bloody
dream," he said as he came back to reality. But he couldn't help
feeling worried about Buffy. He wanted to go after her to see if she
was okay, but he quickly changed his mind. "It was her choice to
leave me. I shouldn't be worried about it," he mumbled to himself
as he took a shower and got dressed. He had called Carmen earlier
and they were going to a club later that night. He went to the
fridge, poured a mug of pig's blood and drank it down. "Now
that's bloody refreshing," he said with a smirk on his face. He
watched a little of the tube and headed to the club where he would
be meeting Carmen, forgetting about the dream and the uneasiness
it had caused him. He was moving on and hopefully something
could happen with him and Carmen.

"Buffy, where are you? Dawn's been worried." Buffy had called
Willow, her best friend since she had first come to Sunnydale.
"I'm in LA, tell Dawn I'm fine." "What are you doing in LA?
When are you coming back?" Willow asked. Buffy stayed silent,
she didn't know what to say. "Buffy, are you still there? Are you
okay?" Buffy didn't want to worry Willow, so she lied, "I'm fine
Will." Willow had known Buffy long enough to know she was
lying, "Buffy you can tell me what's wrong. Did something
happen?" Buffy wanted to cry but she held her tears back even
though she knew Willow couldn't see her, "I . . . I Spike and I . . ."
She hesitated with word. When she was finally able to get the
words out and by the time she had finished telling Willow what
had happened, she was no longer resisting her urge to cry, "I broke
up with Spike because I thought I was still in love with Angel. So,
I went to LA and he was with Cordelia," she spit out really fast.
"Oh sweetie, its okay, don't cry. Where are you now?" Willow
said, trying to comfort her friend as best as she could over the
phone. "I'm at the bus station. I know I should leave LA but I'm
not sure if I can face Spike after the way I dumped him. I realize
now that I was so stupid and that I made a mistake and that I love
him, only him." Willow didn't know what to say. She was glad her
friend realized how stupid she had been and felt hurt that Buffy
had ran off to LA without consulting her best friend first about the
situation. But it was too late for that now, she needed to be there
for her friend. "Buffy you aren't going to run away again. You
know you cant just run away from your problems," Willow said,
remembering what had happened after Buffy killed Angel and had
run away. "No Willow, why would you think that? I know now
that I cant run away from my problems. Don't you remember what
I promised? I'm just so confused right now and I feel so stupid,"
Buffy said, pitying herself. 'You should be,' Willow thought. She
shouldn't have assumed things just because of one night she and
Angel shared. She had betrayed Spike but he loved her enough to
forgive her and move on. But she hadn't let it go, "Buffy stay at the
bus station. I'm coming to pick you up. I'll make sure someone is
watching Dawn so don't worry," she said knowing how much her
friend loved her little sister. "Okay, I'll be waiting," Buffy said and
the two hung up their phones.

Carmen couldn't wait for her date with Spike. They had so much
fun the other night and she was finally able to be with him. The
night he left, she had prepared a nice dinner and she was going to
tell him she loved him but he had up and disappeared. She was so
heart broken. But now, he was back in her life and she wouldn't let
him slip away this time. She took a bath and got dressed while
reminiscing about the wonderful times they shared together. Just
thinking about him put a smile on her face. She put on her make up
and added the last minute accessories before heading out the door
to Club Sunrise. Even though the name was about day, all the
action happened at night. She walked into the club, wearing black
boots with a black mini skirt that had a slit and a semi slutty red
top. She could tell Spike liked it because his eyes lit up when he
saw her . The eyes of the other guys in the bar were also on her as
she walked past them and sat next to Spike at a table in the middle
corner of the bar. "Whoa luv, you look sexy," he said as he licked
his lips. "Its all for you Will baby," she said as she brought her lips
to his. "What was that for?" He asked, recovering from their kiss.
"No reason will," she said with a devilish smile on her face. "Lets
dance Will." He smirked, "Have you forgotten pet? I don't dance."
She looked at him with a puppy dog expression on her face.
"Please Will," she said as she teased him with yet another kiss.
"Alright, bloody alright. Just stop teasing me. Save that for later,"
he said, flashing her a sexy smile. They went onto the dance floor
just as a slow song came on. It was one of Buffy's favorites and it
made the pain come back. "Will, what's wrong?" Carmen asked,
worried as she noticed his tension. "Nothing luv. Lets just continue
to dance, okay pet?" She nodded and they continued to hold each
other. But something was wrong, Spike couldn't shake the feeling
that something was going to happen to Buffy and the feeling was
slowly gnawing at his nerves and emotions.
