Thank you so much, Allison, BuffyAndSpikeForever and Cordykitten!


Misunderstanding (II)

After an almost sleepless night, Willow got up earlier that usual to go to school. She liked doing that, especially when she was upset because she could stay in the library with no one around, reading a good book, although lately she preferred reading magic books instead of school related ones.
She was already in the corridor when she realized that she wasn’t the only one who had had that idea, because she heard someone in the computer room. She approached silently.
“Miss Calendar!” she exclaimed, amazed to see her there.
“Willow! I didn’t expect to see you here so early...” the woman said, walking towards her, mostly to keep Willow from watching what she was working on away on her PC, but she was too late.
“What are you doing? Because that doesn’t look like an informatics’ program!” the girl said roughly, trying to get closer to the PC, but Jenny placed herself in front of it.
“No, it’s too soon, you can’t see it yet!” the woman struck back.
“It’s about Angel, isn’t it? What are you going to do to him?” Willow looked at her coldly.
“Yes, it’s about him, but it’s nothing bad, believe me...”
“How can I believe you after all the lies you’ve told us?”
“Because I’m trying to fix something that I helped to break...” Jenny answered, showing her the screen. It was divided in two parts, on one side there was the scanned image of an antique parchment that it was written in an almost undecipherable language and on the other side there was a blank page with the beginning of a translation. There were just a few sentences, but they already said a lot.
“Is that what I think it is?” Willow asked, almost trembling due to the strong emotion.
“Well, yes and no. I mean... I’m still wondering how, but I managed to find this spell, I thought it was lost forever. It’s hard to translate, I’ve just begun and it’s not much for now. Plus, I can only work on this program with this computer, so until it’s not done I won’t be able to transfer it anywhere else...” Jenny explained, as Willow listened to her, touched.
She wasn’t the only one. Giles had just arrived and hearing some voices coming from the informatics room he had peeped in, watching the whole scene.
“You know, I feel so guilty, I had to do something, but it won’t be easy to do and I’ll need all your help...” the Principal went on.
“You couldn’t do something better for me, thank you, Miss Calendar, thank you so much! Sure, I will help you, although I’m not that powerful...” Willow hugged her. “Now, I’d better go to my classroom, first class is about to start... thank you again... and sorry for yesterday and a few minutes ago...” the girl apologized, leaving.
In the corridor, she saw Giles who, after seeing her, had walked away, pretending to have just arrived.
“She is a very special person and you can’t allow yourself to lose her. Mr Giles, go to her and talk...” Willow advised him.
“Thank you, I was already planning to do that anyway...” the Watcher explained.
“Good. Anyway, before leaving, please, there’s something I need to ask you...” the redhead added.

****************************** (In the meantime)

Checking her watch, Miss Calendar realized that she had to begin her scholastic activities once again. She saved her very precious program in the hard disk, turned the computer off and she headed towards the door, startling when she saw Giles in front of her.
“Rupert... hi... if you are angry with me you have every right, I know that I...” she started saying, but he cut her off.
“Just tell me, what we had between us ... was it a charade, too?” he asked her, abruptly.
“No, Rupert. Oh God, no! What I felt every second that I’ve spent with you was true... deep inside my heart. You can’t doubt that, Rupert, I love you and I’ll do all I can do to win your heart back!” she swore with tearful eyes, fearing his rejection.
“Jenny, you shouldn’t have lied to me all this time. But I know what it means to hide your true identity. I do that every single day. Plus, you did it to protect your people and that is not something I can blame you for...” he started explaining. “And now that I just saw everything that you are doing for Willow... It’s touching and I’m impressed. So, do you think that we can start all over again and be always true to each other from now on?” he suggested, smiling, as Jenny was beyond herself due to the joy.
“Oh God, Rupert, are you telling me that you still want me?”
He didn’t answer immediately, but he got closer, caressing her hair softly.
“Hi, I’m Rupert Giles, and I’m a Watcher!” he smiled at her. She wrapped her arms around his neck.
“Hi, I’m Jennifer Janna Calendar... and I’m a gipsy!” she whispered as some happy tears rolled down her cheeks, before her lips met his for a very intense kiss.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Although it was only afternoon, at the old abandoned warehouse three vampires were already more than awake.
Drusilla had chained Angelus for more than two hours, leaving him shirtless and had cut his chest with a sharp knife, knowing that that would please her Sire very much. Although Spike... well, he wasn’t as pleased!
“Dru, honey, don’t run down his batteries, we need him at full strength for tonight!” Spike reminded her, a little bit annoyed, after all, * he * used to be the one she played with.
But lots of stuff had changed since then and the gorgeous blond vampire did nothing but picture himself as he played those kinky games with a certain sexy Slayer.
“I’m just playing and Daddy likes playing!” she justified, without even turning to her Childe, engrossed as she was looking at Angelus who smiled back at her.
“Everything you do to me is pure pleasure, my baby, and anyway, you know that I’m gonna make you pay soon for that...” he growled at her lustfully.
“Not so soon, my dear, after tonight I’ll be stronger and you’ll become weak, weak, weak. So, I’m taking advantage of that as soon as I can...” she answered as she traced the blade of the knife with the point of her finger, ready to injure him again.
“Oh, this is so cruel from you!” Angelus pretended to scold her.
“But I’m cruel, my love...” she murmured, kissing him savagely as she sank the blade into his chest, making him groan between pain and pleasure.
Sick of the display, Spike left the room, lightening the umpteenth cigarette of the day, as he wished that the sun would set as soon as possible.

---------------------------------------------------
After tormenting herself all day long thinking if she should ask for information or not, Buffy decided to surrender to her curiosity, although she had promised Spike she wouldn’t interfere.
She got into the library when her classes ended for the day, waiting for her Watcher to be completely alone.
“Giles, I gotta ask you something very important... Do you know where St. Jimmy’s church is?” she asked nonchalantly.
“It’s for that research, isn’t it?” he smiled.
“Uh? What research?” she frowned.
“Oh, c’mon, Willow told me that your Literature teacher asked you to do a research about that place, so she asked me the same thing...” he informed her as Buffy felt a shiver run through her, dreading that something was about to go very wrong.
