That night, following graduation, Buffy awoke to the soft ring
of her alarm clock. She jumped out of bed, pulling her
suitcase out from underneath the bed and throwing on some
clothes. Dressed, she tiptoed over to Cordy's room and tapped
on her door, opening it a crack and whispering, "Cordy, wake
up. It's time to get a move on."
Buffy leaned against the wall to wait and moments later Cordy
emerged, handing Buffy her three bags.
Buffy looked down at the bags in her arms, dropping them to
the floor with a heavy thud
Cordy glared at Buffy and asked sarcastically, "God, could you
be any louder?"
"Well, that wouldn't have been so loud if you hadn't packed so
damn much. Cordy, you do realize we're only going for the summer?"
Cordy looked at Buffy and confessed quietly, "No Buffy, you're
only going for the summer. I'm not coming back. There is
nothing here for me. I need to get away from this place and
really live."
Buffy looked at her sister and could see. Their dad was on
Cordy's case even more than he was on Buffy's.
Buffy nodded. "Lets go hun," she said with a smile while
grabbing her bags. On the way out she slipped the note from
her purse onto the coffee table where their parents would see
it when they woke up.
Cordy looked over at Buffy in the driver's seat, "So my
dearest sister, what's our first stop?"she asked Buffy with a
giddy smile.
Buffy looked over and laughed as she saw the goofy smile Cordy
was wearing. "The first place we are making going to is to our
favorite club. We have to pick up something."
Buffy pulled into a parking space and the girls stepped out of
the car.
"Buffy, Cordy, over here."Andrew shouted to them from the club
door.
Cordy ran across the parking lot and straight into Andrew's arms.
"Oh my God Andrew, I haven't seen you in forever! What are you
doing here?" Cordy asked him.
Andrew turned to Buffy with a questioning glance beofre
turning back to Cordy and asking, "Buffy, didn't tell you I
was coming on the road with you?"
Cordy's mouth snapped open and looked toward Buffy.
Buffy lifted her hand to Cordy and said, "Don't even start. We
dont have time for arguments right now. Are you guys ready to
get out of here?"
Andrew looked down and his eyes grew wide, not sure how to
tell Buffy what he had to tell her.
"Andrew what's up?" Buffy asked.
"Well, um, you see Buffy, I kinda invited two other people
with us cause they have a gig in Sunnydale and no other way to
get there." Andrew told her quickly while looking behind her.
"Andrew - " Buffy paused mid-sentence as she turned to look
behind her, forgetting Andrew's statement, forgetting
everything cause, holy crap, the man standing behind her had
just set her heart pounding away in her chest.
He was of an average height, but boy did he make the most of
it. Everything about this man screamed "bad boy," from his
long leather coat, and his tight, faded jeans, to his platinum
blonde hair slicked back to his head. His jaw was strong, his
cheekbones high, and his eyes icey blue. His mouth looked as
if it had been created for the sole purpose of kissing. He
looked like a god.
He snapped his fingers in front of her face to get her attention.
She finally snapped out of her gaze and looked at the man
standing before her.
"Hey love, I'm a thinkin you need a drink you're lookin a
little tense." He told her with a warm smile.
She smiled and replied, "I think you're right. You're good."
A slight smile curved across his face as he responded, "You
have no idea just how good I am."
She giggled as her mind filled with thoughts of what he could
do. She had to give herself a little credit: only half were
porn related. Maybe over half but whatever, math was never her
strong point.
His voice pulled her out of her yummy daze, "Don't worry love,
there's no line. You wont have to wait that long."
Buffy noticed his suggestive tone and replied "You think
you're that good?"
The man chuckled deep in his throat and backed Buffy up
against the wall. "I've been told I can turn a few worlds
upside down. "He whispered into her ear, sinding shivers
through her body.
She knew she should have walked away and made him beg for
forgiviness for his presumptiousness, but she was so drawn to
him. No man had ever her feel a lust like this before. So
instead she decided to go with it, confidently grinning back,
"I've been known to turn a few worlds upside down myself."
His cocky grin was replaced with a tightning in his cheeks,
finally managing to reply, "So kitten likes to play huh?
She looked at him and said, "I've been to busy to play lately,
but it seems as though some time has just opened up in my
schedule."
Before he could say anything Buffy asked, "What insturment do
you play?"
"The guitar. Do you play anything?"
"Nope. I'm definitely not a musician."
He leaned into her a little more before saying,
"Really? Because I can see you playing the clarinet."
Her mouth opened and closed like a fish out of water. She had
a feeling he wasn't talkiing about the musical instrument.
"I don't even know your name" Buffy realized.
He curled his tongue behind his teeth before replying,
"The name's Spike. And I already know your name"
Buffy smiled before frowning, "What kind of a name is Spike?"
"It's a nickname."
"Why Spike?"
He backed off the wall and turned around to walk to Cordy's
black truck where everyone else was waiting. "You'll find out
soon enough."
Buffy took a deep breath and before following him to the car,
mumbling under her breath, "This is gonna be one hell of a ride."
