Looking for a Season 2 fic I can't seem to find on Search. Spike is mad about Dru being with Angelus, and concludes the whole situation is the Slayer's fault. He seeks Buffy out and goes on to beat her senseless. Buffy doesn't put up much of a fight as she agrees that everything Angelus has done was ultimately her fault. Spike nearly beats her to death, but stops as he doesn't feel right about killing her if she wasn't going to fight back. Buffy was too badly beaten to go home, so Spike takes her to a motel so she can recover through the night. He ends up staying and they spend the entire night just talking. Buffy realizes she really likes Spike as a person, and a relationship eventually develops from there. They may even end up claimed in the end.
I've searched everywhere, so any help in finding this fic would be appreciated! |
