Chapter 3 What does she look like
“ Ok, so, everything is set at the O2. We're there for four nights and then we're doing a couple of small gigs at The Carling Acadamy, then we're gonna go on to Wembley. We're there for 3 nights. See I listen!” Spike grabbed the tea his father had made him and then sat on the sofa. “I still don't see why I had to be up at some ungodly hour to go through all this”
“Well sometimes we all have to do things that we don't like. We need to be at the O2 at five for the sound check” Rupert Giles said as he sat down. “Now lets see what morning TV has to offer”
Giles picked up the remote and switched it on to ITV. He was glad William hadn't questioned him further on why he'd gotten him up so early. He knew that Buffy was going to be on GMTV and thought that this would be the perfect opportunity for Spike to see how well she was doing.
--------------------------------------------------
“And now for our special guest this morning..... Buffy Summers!”
“Morning Fiona”
--------------------------------------------------
Spike's head snapped up so fast he nearly got whiplash.
-------------------------------------------------
“Good morning Buffy. Thanks for coming”
“Thanks for having me”
“So, you've topped the US charts and now you're topping the UK charts. How does it feel?”
“Quite strange really. I mean I've wanted this for as long as I can remember. So it's hard to believe that it's actually happened.”
“Are you a lyricist as well?”
“Yes, I write all my own songs. I've been writing them since I was 15, so I've got a lot of them. Most of what's on my album was written about 10 years ago.”
“What about the one you're going to perform today?”
“This one was written about 10 years ago. I was going through a bad patch, as we all do. And when I got signed this was the one they chose to be my first single. Something about depressing love songs sell. Which lucky for me it did!”
“And it reached number one and stayed there for 3 weeks. And then stayed in the top 10 for 7 weeks. That's pretty impressive.”
“You're telling me. Everytime my manager called me and told me I just couldn't believe it.”
--------------------------------------
“She did it”
“She did”
“You knew?”
“Yes”
“How could you not tell me?”
“It wasn't my place”
“Bollocks!”
“William! Maybe if you listened to the radio or watched decent TV for a change you would've known”
“I miss her”
“I know. But what's done is done. You can only move forward.”
-------------------------------
“ Well Buffy. Again thanks for coming in. And now singing live in the studio is Buffy Summers!”
Buffy walked over to the microphone, closed her eyes and breathed in. As the opening notes started she breathed out, opened her eyes and looked straight into the camera.
I never thought that love could be unkind
'Cos your the type of guy I thought I'd never find
I thought I could forget you and be strong
But the love I have inside makes me hold on
And now I am beside myself
I think of you and no one else
You held me tight I felt so safe
And now I know I've been replaced
-----------------------------------------------------
“God, she's amazing!”
“She always had a good voice.”
“She hasn't changed at all. She looks gorgeous.”
“Having regrets?”
“When do I not? I just wish I could see her, so I could explain.”
“Why did you phone her?”
“Because I wanted to see if she would ask me to come back. I missed her so much. And I wanted to go back. I was stupid, I know that. But I just kept thinking that if I told her and she still loved me then she'd want me to come home.”
“You told her you were going to be a father”
“Well I thought I was!”
“William, she wouldn't have asked you to go back to her once you told her that!”
--------------------------------------------
What does she look like?
Why was she so right?
That you gave your love to her
Baby didn't I deserve
To hold you
Baby, to show you
That the love I have inside to give
Was enough for us to live
You'll never know the hurt you put me through
Cos you're loving her while I was loving you
You took my heart and ripped it into shread's
And now your heart is with that girl in your bed
-----------------------------------------
“I didn't think about it like that! I wanted to tell her I was sorry and that I shouldn't have left like that. But it just didn't come out. I fucked up. I was told the baby was mine but I knew it wasn't.”
“How?”
“Because I'd told her the week before that I was gonna go back to Buffy. And then she tells me she's pregnant. It was just after my meeting with Angel. She wanted me to stay with her and thought that was the way. Well it worked. That is, until I found her shagging him!”
----------------------------------------
I know I'm just a memory
But I will love you endlessly
You cherished me
You made me strong
You gave me strength to carry on
What does she look like?
Why was she so right?
That you gave your love to her
Baby, didn't I deserve
To hold you
Baby, to show you
That the love I have inside to give
Was enough for us
----------------------------------------
“So that's why you didn't take the contract with Angel?”
“Yeah”
“Why have you never told me this?”
“I dunno. Didn't want you to think I was stupid, cause it sounds ridiculous that I let some two timing bitch hold me back.”
“So you led me to believe that Angel thought you
weren't good enough?”
“Yeah, guess it sounds pretty stupid now”
“Yes, I would have to agree with you on that”
“What am I gonna do now?”
-----------------------------------------
Don't you think I'll sit there crying over you
Baby, don't you take me for a fool no, no, no
I'll think of you along the way
I'll get over you I hope and pray
If I was not the one for you
Why did you choose me? to make me blue?
What does she look like?
Why was she so right?
That you gave your love to her
Baby, didn't I deserve
To hold you
Baby, to show you
That the love I have inside to give
Was enough for us
----------------------------------------------
“ Mom's amazing” Adelaide whispered.
“I know” Willow whispered back. The pair looked on in awe as Buffy sang the song perfectly.
-------------------------------------------
What does she look like?
Why was she so right?
That you gave your love to her
Baby, didn't I deserve
To hold you
Baby, to show you
That the love I have inside to give
Was enough for us to live
As the song faded out, applause erupted from the hosts and crew members.
Buffy took a bow and smiled at the camera and then walked off to join Willow and Adelaide.
