Hide from the ones you love

[sike_thebloody]

Who: Spike - Open for anyone

Where: Hiding in an office of some random worker he threatened

When: Very late afternoon

Spike couldn't help, but wonder what the hell he did to deserve this. First he sacrifices all he has to save the world, and then poff here he is at Wolfram & Hart just popped right out of a bloody amulet and now to make matters worse

After leaving Wesley's office Lilah, wandered around the offices until she found Spike hiding out in one of the paralegal's office. She walked in and closed the door. "So you get sucked back out of the amulet and the first thing you do is hide in a paralegal's office? Wow you're more pathetic than I thought." She smirked and leaned against the desk.

Spike was just sitting in the office when all of a sudden that horrid women showed up and began to insult him.

"I'm not hiding." He pauses "I'm just ... Testing the offices this one is pretty nice bloody well needs a fish or two though. Bugger. Fine look just keep it down last thing I needs is more of you bloody annoying people in here."

Her smirk widened a bit. "Of course you were, let me guess you're hiding from a certain blonde slayer." She sighed. "Honestly I don't see what all the fuss is about she's just a girl." She pushed herself off the desk and started to walk around the room. So far this was turning out to be even less fun than bothering Wesley. She stopped and looked out at the darkness. She hadn't been back on earth for long, but she was really starting to miss the sun, along with a few other things, sometimes it just wasn't any fun being dead.

Spike was really getting tired of Angels little gang bothering him.He watched her walk to window and look out side.

"Look I don't really know you all that well, but I know that I don't like Angel and I don't like Evil, well at least not anymore. Your one of the two given that you work here. So bugger off unless you got something interesting to bring to the table. I am bloody well tired of this."

Spike pulled out a cigarette and lit it. Not even thinking about if this room might have smoke sprinklers in it. He thought about it reconsidering for a second then figured that they probably didn't put them in each individual office and if so, what the hell who cares.

Lilah sighed as she listened to him talk. When he mentioned Angel he managed to get a genuine smile out of her. "Well seems we have something in common then, because I hate Angel too, more than you know trust me." She watched him light up his cigarette. "If you're so tired of being here, then why don't you leave?"

[sike_thebloody]

Spike listened as she mentioned that she didn't like Angel. HE had to admit he at least likes her a little bit now. Why doesn't he leave? Thats a good question one he has thought about a lot since he came back.

"Well let's say I do leave. What then? What is it that I am suppose to do ? Where do I go? The truth of the matter is I got nothing else. I guess there are quite a few reasons I stay. I like to annoy Angel that's for sure also I know whats happening here is important and I would like to be apart of that no matter the outcome. Now that Buffy is here though I can stay for her."

He realized after he said it that it's kind of stupid to stay for Buffy and never go see her.

Lilah listened to him talk, while she continued to look out at the darkness. "Maybe so, but it's nice to have the option of leaving, you at least have that I don't." She sighed. "I really didn't think being back here would be this hard...” She finally turned away from the window to face him. Being here even in the last few weeks was starting to get to her. She smiled and hid the tears and her still broken heart from the world, everyday she came into the office. Everyone only saw the smart ass lawyer not the broken woman that lay beneath the mask. Lilah could barely get through a meeting without glancing at Wes at least one. If one looked close they could easily see that being around him was killing her, because she still loved him, and he no longer had a clue about exactly what they'd had.

While she talked Spike noticed a little bit of water in her eye. He could see she was holding something in. She quickly turned around, but he saw it. Spike knew then and there that he may of actually found someone in this hell hole that he liked.

"So whats your story?" He asked.

"and while were at it if your not a friend of Angel then what are you? Don't tell me your evil." He added.

[notquitegood]

Lilah decided that liked Spike, and that he might be someone that she could actually talk to. When he asked what her story was she laughed. "You got five hours?" She crossed her arms. "I work for the Senior Partners of this firm I answer to them and no one else, most of all his broodyness" She gave him a small smile.

[sike_thebloody]

Spike couldn't help but smirk at the fact that she didn't actually answer his question about her being evil. He knew that meant she wasn't evil but liked the image that she was.

"Captain Forehead wasn't always a jerk you know. There was a time the two of us were best of friends."

Spike sat for a minute but decided that it was getting late and he wanted to hit the street save a few lives and maybe hit a few bars.

"Well I'm done with this office it's about time I head out and do me some good old fashion life savin. I'll grab a few beers while im at it. You can tag along if you want just stay out of my way." He said.

Now he just has to be careful and avoid bumping in to Buffy on his way out.

"It's hard to picture Angel being any other way." She replied, as she watched him start to leave. When he mentioned going out to save lives and then have drinks she raised an eyebrow then shrugged. "Well saving people isn't really my thing; the drinking however would be nice...” She sighed she had no idea what to do with herself; she knew she had work, but she wasn't interested in actually doing any of it, and she could use a break from being cooped up in this building.
