I stood in front of Caritas my arms crossed, my eyes studying the vampire in front of me. He was deliberately looking away from me.

"We're here, pet, so tell me t'stay or go."He'd like that wouldn't he? Ask him to stay because a part of me really doesn't want to run into Angel by myself. I didn't think he was here, most of the time I can feel

((No problem, Buffy-Mun!))

"Do whatever you want..."

What? No scowls, no daggers shootin' from her eyes at me? She must've really gotten all riled-up about Angel.

Poor little lost Slayer.

I shrugged my shoulders, lit another smoke, and finally looked her in the eyes. God, she could kill me with those eyes.

Well, she could kill me a few other ways, but lucky for me, she hadn't. Probably wouldn't, either. Too many other things on her mind - avoiding the ponce, takin' care of the 'bit, tryin' to come to terms with how bad the shaggin' must've been with Soldier-Boy.

I knew that first-hand. Hey now, not that I was interested, not that I cared...I just

Plan? Yeah, one of those might be nice about now. The truth was, I didn't really have something mapped out. I was just looking for a good excuse to beat something to a bloody pulp. Between taking care of Dawn, Faith being in town, Spike's crush and this portal I was ready to rip something's head off.

The bar was empty, chairs placed on tables, the stage dimly lit. I sat in a char. "We're going to sit here and wait. Then we're going to kill whatever comes through there. Simple enough?"

I sat down next to her without bein' asked.

"We're going to sit here and wait. Then we're going to kill whatever comes through there. Simple enough?"

"Simple enough for me, luv."

But what about you, Slayer? I'll wager sittin' here, knowin' one ex has flown the coop and the other is wanderin' around town bein' all soul-havin' is just eating you up inside.

I could make it better. Know I could.

She won't let me.

I sniffed a bit, rubbed my nose, and leaned back in the chair. Arms draped a bit, showin' off my hot little body since - well, it is. Besides, it might get her t'notice me finally...

"So then. Here we are. Slayer and vampire, waitin'. Sittin'."

I nodded my head once for emphasis.

"Yup, just us now, pet. Alone..."

My eyes strayed to her face as I licked my lips.

Hmm. Better not push my luck.

"Alone and...waitin'."

I love you, Buffy. I need you. You're the dark that matches mine...God, how we could dance forever...

"So, what's new?"

[cookiedoughgirl]

Oh my God, if he started singing "I think we're alone now" I was going to have to break this chair over his head and put him out of his misery, chip or not.

"On second thought," I said, standing up. "What if whatever is supposed to come through here today has already come through here?"

He was making me nervous with all this alone talk. I walked over to the portal. Sure enough, on the ground infront of it there was the clear mark of a footprint. "I think we might be too late."
