Summary: Buffy and Daniel discuss their problems.
Complicated
Buffy grabbed Daniel’s hand and pulled him out onto the dance floor. “Dance with me,” she ordered, wrapping her arms around his neck.
Daniel hoped that submitting now would get him out of dancing later as he wrapped his arms around her tiny waist. He was just surprised that it had been Buffy who had asked him to dance and not Vala.
“Are you ever going to tell her?” Buffy asked over the music.
“What?”
“Are you ever going to tell her that you care about her?”
“Who?”
Buffy rolled her eyes. “Vala.”
“Well, of course I care about her. Just like I care about you, or Carter, or…”
“No, not just like us. You like her,” Buffy said.
“That’s… That’s preposterous.”
“Is it?”
“All we, all we do is argue.”
“Foreplay.”
“That’s… No!… I mean…no.”
“I think you protest too much,” Buffy said with a smirk. “What’s stopping you? The fact that she kicked your ass the first time you met?”
“What?”
“Don’t let your pride stop you.”
Daniel frowned. “It’s not that.”
“Then wha…” Buffy stopped and stared up at him in surprise. “It’s fear, isn’t it? You’re afraid. But of what?”
“It’s complicated.”
“Only because you’re making it so,” Buffy said, moving them again. “You deserve someone to make you happy.”
“And you don’t?” Daniel shrewdly asked.
“Huh?”
“Is it your wounded pride that keeps you from Mitchell?”
Buffy blushed. “It’s more…”
“Complicated?” Daniel finished for her.
“Yeah.”
“We could… try to uncomplicated matters,” Daniel suggested.
Buffy looked to where Vala and Cameron were dancing. “We could.”
“Starting now?”
“How about tomorrow? We need a plan.”
