Solitude
Thanks to Catt, TheShadowCat, Aisling, spikestheman, redwulf50, Natalie, and Shelly. You guys are fan-friggin’-tasic. Seriously. Hope u like this one as well. I know it’s short, but I had mega work to do. Hope to hear from all u readers out there.
“Solitude”
Buffy couldn’t believe what she had just heard. Giles was leaving- abandoning her. Not that she should be shocked, really. It was bound to happen eventually, right? But still, how could he after everything that he knows? How did he come to the utterly insane conclusion that she’d be stronger without him? If anything, she’d end up even more smothered by the gang than before without him there. But then, he hadn’t exactly been by her side the past few weeks. What does he want me to do? And listen to him, talking so nonchalant as if it were no big deal. Maybe it isn’t- to him. Why should I expect any more from him when my father, who I share genes and blood with, abandoned me as well?
Hey dad? Mom died. I really need you here. You coming to the funeral? Oh, you’re much too busy? Gee, I understand.
Hey Giles? I was in Heaven, and since my friends ripped me from there, I’ve been so depressed that I nearly committed suicide by dancing myself into flames. Oh, I’ll be stronger by myself, you say? Gee, I understand now. Go on to a whole other time zone across the vast ocean. I’ll be peachy. Uh huh. Fine. Buffy couldn’t take it anymore.
“Why don’t you just cut to the chase? Tell them how you’re-" Spike entered the Magic Box in that moment; he was a much needed distraction.
“Spike.”
“Holey Moley.” Giles and Anya said back to back.
“You need to give me asylum.” He burst into the shop in all his smoking glory (what was that suit?), ever the reminder to Buffy that he was a vampire. Her mortal enemy. A vampire she had never been able to, and probably never would or could be able to kill. In some crazy twist of fate, Spike snuck up on her and turned out to be her equal. Of course, I could never tell him that. He looks so adorable in that suit. Odd, and a little watchery, but cute.
As soon as Spike walked in, his eyes scanned the room for Buffy. She was directly in front of him across the room, sitting on the stairs. Her arms were crossed protectively in front of her. She’s doing that whole emotional shut down thing again. And she looked pretty down.
“No need to get cute.” Spike said to Harris as he walked towards her, stopping at the glass display case and sitting atop it. Close to her, but not so close that she’d feel smothered. A smothered Slayer would more than likely try to pick a fight- with him more than likely.
“Nasty fellow, him…” Spike’s main goal in telling about his sharky friend was for two reasons: to explain why he needed the Nancy Boy threads, and to maybe get a grin out of Buffy. All he got was an eye roll and a turn of the head. Well, a bloke had to try, didn’t he? But when he heard what Giles had to say, he could see why Buffy was so down. Nope. Not gonna be an easy fix. How could Giles? Leaving her just like that? Spike shook his head. He expected better from the Watcher. I mean, he’s like a bloody father to her. And here she is, feelin’ all betrayed and the like from her friends, and he goes and adds himself to the bleeding list of betrayal by leaving her. Stupid git.
“For real this time? Cause honest to Pete, a young shop keeper’s heart can only take so much. I mean, not that I want you to go-"
“I can’t do this, I…” Spike’s heart went out to her. It may be undead and no longer beating, but he knew all too well about abandonment. And having a sickly mum, utter humiliation, being labeled, and losing your first great love. They had a lot in common, and he silently promised that he would help her through this, no matter how hard she might try to push him away. God knows she will try…
“It’s like I’m dying, and-” But before Buffy could finish what she had to say, or Spike on coming up with a plan on how to help her, they all took a several hour nap.
A/N: Please you guys, if there was anything confusing or whatever it was you didn't like, please let me know and I will try not to do it again in the future. How can I change if you don't tell me?
