Chapter 7


Buffy had been home for over an hour and still hadn’t been able to calm
down. It was getting close to midnight, and she knew she wouldn’t be able
to get much sleep tonight. Her mind kept going over everything that had
transpired over the past few hours. William showing up looking like Spike,
the different attitude, the fight.

She was starting to realize what William was going through, and she was
beginning to feel guilty for yelling at him about something as mediocre as
changing his hair and clothes. It was his life. Who was she to tell him
what he should or shouldn’t be doing with it?

However, Will wasn’t the only reason she was still awake. It was Spike’s
voice that filled her head whenever she tried to relax, the tone his words
had taken on as he stood belittling her to make himself feel better. The
way he looked when he was yelling at her for leading him on. Buffy paced
her apartment as his voice kept coming back to her.

She didn’t mean to make him feel that way, to make him feel as if he had to
lash out at her. She knew that he enjoyed a flirtation with her, but she
had no idea what his feelings toward her were. Buffy had just assumed that
he wanted to get under his brother’s skin by flirting with her. She knew
that he seemed happy when she’d admitted that she probably would have dated
him if it weren’t for William, but she had simply attributed that to male
pride at the fact that she would have given him a chance.

Buffy rubbed her arms, trying to ward off the chill she felt coming over
her. She was beginning to feel a headache threaten to overwhelm her as her
thoughts drifted back and forth from one man to the other. She knew she had
to make it up to William for the way she’d been acting lately. She thought
about the hurt look on his face whenever Spike was even mentioned. She knew
that she would be devastated if she was in the same position, so why was she
making it even harder for him?
She didn’t love him, it was true, but she didn’t love Spike either. Maybe if she were given enough time she could fall in love with William. It was better than risking what she had with him on a chance of something she wasn’t even sure of. Now all she had to do was apologize.

Buffy’s thoughts were running wild when she heard someone knock on the door.
She glanced at the clock with a puzzled expression on her face. She saw
that it was exactly midnight and frowned. No one came over at this time of
night, unless it was Faith, and she always called beforehand. Buffy made her
way to the front door and hesitated a moment. “Who is it?”

“It’s me,” she heard the soft voice answer through the door.

“William,” she said softly before unlocking the door. She pulled it
open to reveal him on the other side. He looked up at her
with sad eyes full of insecurity as she timidly folded her arms across her chest, wondering if
he was coming to finish their fight. Buffy decided she should tread
lightly, not wanting to hurt his feelings any more than she had already done
tonight. “What are you doing here?” she asked quietly, stepping aside to
let him come in as she tried to keep her voice soft and neutral.

He looked up at her with sorrowful eyes as he stepped into her apartment. “I’m sorry.”

Buffy almost didn’t hear the whispered confession, but she gave him a small
smile as she shut the door behind him. “I’m sorry, too.”

Buffy stared at him uncertainly for a moment before she slowly stood on her
tiptoes and planted a soft kiss on his lips, bracing her hands against his
strong chest, waiting to see if he would respond to her. He moaned slightly
as his arms went around her waist, dipping his tongue into Buffy’s mouth,
delicately tasting her. Buffy felt her heart rate speed up at the tender
display before twining her arms around his neck and deepening the kiss even
further.

Buffy relished the feel of him against her. The gentle, but passionate,
kisses that he was lavishing on her lips. She began to feel lightheaded as
his lips broke away from hers and descended down her neck.

Pulling away from him, she looked up with a lust-filled gaze before
grabbing him by the hand. Not thinking before she acted, Buffy quickly headed toward her bedroom, practically dragging him as she made her way over to the
bed. Once she got to her destination, Buffy spun around again, pulling him
down for another kiss. She felt his body push against hers as she was
enveloped by a pair of strong arms. She eagerly pushed back, trying to get
closer.

Pulling away, they quickly divested each other of their
shirts and pants before fusing their lips together again. Buffy moaned as
she was gently pushed to the bed. She started panting as her bra and panties
were stripped from her, before he began crawling up her body, coming to rest in between
her thighs. She wrapped her arms around his neck again, leaving a soft kiss
on his lips before pulling back to look into his navy eyes.

“I need you,” she whispered softly, pulling gently on his newly bleached
hair and claiming his mouth again. “Please, baby.”

“Shhhh,” he whispered soothingly as he looked down at her. Buffy gasped as
she felt the tip of his shaft slowly entering her. She moaned as he gently
pushed further inside her, scratching at his back as she arched her hips
into his, trying to speed up the pace of his thrusts.

Buffy could feel him tense as he came to a stop, burying his face in the
crook of her neck, trying to stave off his climax from simply being fully
imbedded inside her. She knew he was trying to wait until he pushed her
over the edge before following, and she stayed still beneath him as she
waited for him to move again.

She gasped again as she felt him begin to move at a faster pace than she
expected. Buffy moaned as their pelvises began to grind together on every
stroke, arching her back as she felt one of his hands gently palm her
breast.

As their thrusting sped up, Buffy slowly began to feel the tightness begin
in her stomach, signaling her approaching orgasm. She moved more
frantically, trying to seek her release.

“Please,” she whimpered frantically. She gasped when he began lengthening
his strokes, pulling almost completely out of her before plunging back into
her hot depths. She arched against him again as he began stroking against
the sensitive bundle of nerves, hitting it at the perfect angle with every
movement their hips made. Buffy moaned as she threw her head back into the
pillow, feeling herself spiraling out of control with each thrust of their
bodies.

Buffy began writhing underneath him as her body exploded in ecstasy. She
felt his hand wind around her body to rest on the small of her back, just
above the swell of her butt, as he pulled her closer, plunging into her with
lack of control. Before long, Buffy could feel his body begin shaking as he
began pulsing deep inside of her, shooting stream after stream into her
waiting body.

Looking at each other in the calming aftermath of their love making, their
lips met in a tender kiss as they tried to steady their erratic breathing.
Buffy felt as if her body was melting into his at the tingling sensations
running through her.

Still joined together, he pulled away from her slightly, letting his eyes
drink in the sight of her as she lay beneath him. He let his hands weave
through her hair, enjoying the feel of the long, silky strands slipping
through his fingers.

“You were amazing,” he whispered huskily as he stared at her.

She smiled, reaching up to trace the sharp contours of his cheekbones. She
pulled him down to claim his lips in another searing kiss before pulling
back and looking deep into his eyes. “Because of you.”

“No one’s ever made me feel the way you do, luv.”

Buffy froze, her entire body tensing at the one word. “Spike?”

“Yeah, who’d you…”

His face seemed to turn to stone as he looked down at her panic-stricken
features. Before either could say another word, a loud knocking resounded
through the small apartment, coming from the front door.

“Buffy, it’s me.”

Buffy felt the air rush out of her body at the sound of William’s voice.




A/N I'm really curious to know, was I able to trick you?
