CHAPTER 4

Late but on Time

Giles stepped in the lady’s backstage room.

“Girls, it’s about time. You’re on in 5 minutes. Break a leg.”

And with that he was out of the room and the girls could hear the same loud knock on the door to the room beside them.

“OH MY GOD”

“Buffy, calm down.”

“CALM DOWN?”

“I’m nervous too, get over it. It’ll turn out great.”

“Willow, listen. I’m not nervous, I’m sick, I don’t have butterflies in my stomach, it’s a freaking airport in there.” Buffy pointed to her tummy for emphasis.

“I’m not excited. I feel like throwing up.”

“Talking of vomiting. I really gotta go to the bathroom. Be back in a sec”

And with that Anya left the other girls alone.


Anya came out of the bathroom when the door to ‘the happy place’, as she liked to call it opened.
She stopped walking and tried to get a glimpse. Inside there was a guy what looked like tuning his bass. Her cheeks flushed and for a moment she dreamt about having sweat bringing, mindless, bunny sex.
‘No, no bunny sex, uhm just sweat bringing and mindless… What was it with all the bunny talk anyways?’
She had no time to find the answer as the door closed again and she heard her name being called.

“Yes?”

”C’mon, we’re on.” And with that Anya walked towards Dawn, who was the first to leave their room.

The girls put their hands together and yelled “CHICKS” and ran onto the stage.

The lights in the club were dimmed and turned on fully as the first sounds were heard from Anya’s guitar.

They started with an ear shattering intro and went straight to their opening song for tonight.
You could tell they were having the best time in their lives, gone was the nervousness. The knowledge of playing here in a sold-out club, while the band of their dreams was just one room away was exciting like hell.

After the last accords of their first song the girls welcomed the mostly female audience.

“I know you’re here to see the band of your dreams, and we’re thankful they allowed us to play but we’re proud that you guys welcomed us with all you got.”

The audience yelled, screamed and clapped. Buffy laughed.

“We’re Sunny Fried Chicks and this is the first song we’ve ever played live… called Jasmin!”

The song started with a fantastic drum solo, Willow was totally freaking out and the girls could only laugh cause they all thought Will never played THAT enthusiastic before.
Then Dawn joined Willow and the simple sound of the drums and the fantastic bass lines made the audience go nuts.

After a few seconds Buffy joined them.

You said you loved me
And I believed you
And then I saw you
La Lalala La
Her name was

JASMIN

All the girls screamed ‘Jasmin’ into their microphones.

The song passed too fast, same as the whole showcase.
Soon the girls found themselves playing the second to last song.

“Only two songs left, you better enjoy yourselves guys!” Dawn said while winking at a guy that stood in the second row.

“Before we leave you alone we wanna introduce ourselves.” Buffy said with a festive voice.

“To my RIGHT, we have the lovely, adorable guitarist. ANYA!”
The audience screamed, some guys were roaring in a low voice.

“Behind me, the innocent, beautiful and for sure unpredictable Drum Freak Willow!”
Willow slammed on the drums while the audience clapped.

“AND to my left. My extraordinary sister, bass player from hell. DAWN”
The audience went nuts. The guy Dawn flirted with earlier nearly fainted when Dawn smiled at him and licked her lips.

Now it was Dawn’s turn.
“And right in the middle of the stage, we have to most talented singer on earth! Give it up for ...”

“BUFFY” all the girls yelled and immediately started with the song.



Spike pulled the car into the parking lot right in front of the Bronze.
‘Bugger, 15 minutes left and I gotta be up on stage.’

Spike pulled out his guitar from the back and went into the Club.
He wanted to get through the club as fast as possible.

‘Thank god the fans don’t recognize me, yet’ he thought as he made his way through the guys, passing the bar in the back.

Suddenly his thoughts were disturbed by a lovely voice. He hadn’t even notice the band on stage, now he was looking up and couldn’t do anything else than to watch them.

He leaned against the wall, his guitar in his hand forgotten.
She was amazing. Long blond hair framing her face, sweat making her skin shine. Even from the back he could see her beautiful smile.

His brain seemed to stop functioning as his eyes drifted down her body. She was wearing a black tank top that excellently presented her breasts. Her legs were covered by an excuse of a skirt.
The girl turned around and pointed to the one playing the drums.
Her tight black leather skirt neatly covered her perfect formed bottom.

Spike felt a bulge rise in his pants. He couldn’t help it, the girl was enthralling.
He watched her like an animal on the hunt. He took everything in. Her movements, her smile, her words. Even though he didn’t understand what she was saying as his brain stopped working when he first saw her.

He bit his lower lip. Licking it as soon as his teeth let go of the soft flesh.


“Now guys, this is our last song. Thank you for lending us your ears” Anya smiled.

“This one is a cover version of Buffy’s favourite Song, and we’re playing it cause it’s tradition to end every gig with it.”

“ROCK ON GUYS” Willow screamed and the girls couldn’t help but burst out into laughter at the first accords of Soundgarden’s ‘Black Hole Sun’.

Buffy felt her heart skip when she saw a pair of sea blue eyes darting into her.
Way in the back there in the shadows stood a male figure with the blondest hair on earth. She smirked.
That smirk soon faded as the guy started making it through the audience.

Black hole Sun
Won’t you come
And wash away the rain

The guy now stood in the middle of the room.
It seemed like the world around him just stopped.
It seemed like he was the only one standing there.
The audience became kind of blurry, and the only thing left was this man.
Standing there, a guitar in his hand, a black leather duster on, bleached hair and blue eyes that felt like the eyes of an animal. Aggressive, frightening and as adorable as one’s could imagine.

To Buffy it felt like she wasn’t even singing. She couldn’t even understand why she didn’t forget the words.
But she sang, like a machine, her brain ran through the program while her body responded anything else than normal.

She felt the sweat coming out of her even more. She felt tingly on places she never thought she had and with the wet fluids flowing freely between her legs her body told her that she was ready for him.
That her body already invited him in it’s life.

“Black hole sun” and with that the last notes of the song ended.

Dawn noticed the state Buffy was in and tried to find the reason for it but couldn’t make it out.

The three other girls went to Buffy’s side and yelled “THANK YOU”.
Dawn grabbed her by the arm and led her off the stage.

The moment Buffy felt someone grab her Buffy looked away from the guy and realised the gig was over.


Spike snapped out of his fantasy as the girl turned around and ran off stage.
It felt like a release to be able to think again, at the same time his heart screamed because of the great lost of the special moment he just experienced with the perfect blond girl on stage.

He realised there was a reason he was in the Bronze.

‘DAMN! Gotta get ready!’

With that he ran into the direction of the backstage area.


The guys stood at the end of the stage and watched as the girls went into the direction of the stairs that led off stage.

“Damn, where’s Spike”

“ ‘m here”

“Man, FINALLY! Where were you???”

“Stuck in traffic. But ‘m ‘ere now, am I. So let’s go”

“We’ve got another 10 minutes, they’re rearranging the instruments and monitors.”

“Oh, ok. Where’s Connor?”

“Back, Harmony.” Gunn smirked, pointing to their backstage room.

The four girls passed them, each of them looking up.

“Hey” they said in unison.

“Oh, hey girls, you were great” Gunn told them.

The other guys were too stunned to say something.
Xander noticed the beautiful guitarist the moment he stood here.
Even Oz lost his ‘calm face’, Gunn hat to laugh out loud
‘Did that guy just blush???’

The last girl leaving the stage was uffy. He passed the boys locking eyes with Angel, blushing lightly. The blush soon vanished as she heard a light growl and brushed her arm against something hard and smooth at the same time.
She looked up and looked into the beautiful face she couldn’t see that good when she stood on stage and he in the audience.

He was amazing. The hard texture his face consisted of. The nice tan, the smooth neatly lightening in the dark corner.

She gave him a small smile and he felt like he’d explode any second.
He smiled back at her and she decided that this were the most handsome features she’s ever seen in her life.

Willow ruined the moment as she called for her.
“Buffy, c’mon.”

And so she did. She turned around to look at him again, instead Angel stood right where the strange stood 2 seconds ago and smiled sweetly at her.
He winked and she blushed a little.

Spike stood near by and watched the scene.
‘Bloody Great. Now she’s one of the Angel addicted too…’

Dawn prepared to walk again as the door to the boys’ room opened.
Out came a guy trying to button up his shirt.
He looked up and you could almost see the sparks flowing between them. But then she looked behind him, seeing the blond bimbo straightening up and she rolled her eyes at him before she walked passed him and into their backstage room.

Connor couldn’t believe that even as he saw her the second time this evening it felt even more intense than the first time.
He could’ve beaten himself for being a hormone driven jerk.
He narrowed his eyes at Harmony and wanted to hit himself for even considering being with this totally stupid girl.

He didn’t turn around twice just let the door slip closed and went for the stage.
As soon as he reached it Giles announced the band and the fans were screaming so loud he was scared about losing his ability to hear.

The Dingos entered the Stage, welcomed the fans and started with their no 1 single ‘It’s Nothing’.


‘OH MY GOD. WHO IS THIS GUY?’
Buffy couldn’t help but repeat the scenes with the stranger over and over again in her mind.
The way he made her skin glow, tingle and itch.

“You were great guys! Fantastic.” Giles stuck his head in the room.
“You were better than ever before. Sure practiced a lot, am I right? Well, you were amazing. Don’t you want to watch the show of the Guys?”

“Oh, thank you Giles. And yes, we’d love to watch them. Just have to get ready.”
Anya smiled sweetly at Giles with a wink she shushed him out of the room, happy about the light shade of red she turned Giles face in.

“Isn’t he a gentleman. Always nice and considerate.”

The other girls were busy changing their clothes and putting new make up on.
Less than 5 minutes later they all stood at the edge of the stage, every single one of them a sparkle in their eyes.
