She felt it. A burning cinder igniting a blaze in the depths of her being. Saw it in the tender stare of blue topaz flashing with fire under her gaze, penetrating her soul. Lean hardness pressed intimately into her as her grip on the wooden spoon imperceptibly faltered.

Shaking her head to clear it, she stepped back quickly, afraid she’d been seared by that look for eternity. She couldn’t think on it now. He’d taken her friends and she had to do what was necessary to get them back.

The passion of our bruising kiss as his cool tongue glides against mine sends a flame pulsing through my veins. The need to feel all of him consumes me.

Suddenly, he changes our position, slamming me into the wall, giving me the pressure I crave. Desperately, I reach between us to release what I desire most and quickly take him into my body. There it is. That look I’ve been trying to ignore. The one that tells me his love is real. The one that started this hunger for him almost three years ago.

Revelation

Drabble set during the church scene between Buffy and Spike when his soul is revealed to her.
A/N Thank you so much Tam for the beta.

*~*~

Palpable pain.

Buffy, shame on you. Why does a man do what he mustn’t? For her. To be hers. To be the kind of man who would nev—To be a kind of man.

She was to blame.

She was the cause of the pulsing anguish in his eyes, mind, and body.

And she shall look on him with forgiveness and everybody will forgive and love… and he will be loved.

Stunned, a lone crystal teardrop slips from her lashes as she watches him drape himself over the ornate cross.

She was the monster of their relationship. The one guilty of driving him to this madness. Not him.

Never him.

Want To Feel

Spike decides he needs to have his say at the end of Crush

A/N Happy Birthday Kristina! I hope you have a great day and I really hope you like this. I had no clue what episode to use or if I should go with season 5 or 6 since you have the same problem as I do and have trouble deciding. LOL *bows* Thank you my wonderful beta, Spikeslovebite.

*~*~

My lips still burn with the feel of that soft, cool, whiskey and tobacco flavored kiss. The kiss that sent shivers down my spine and weakened my knees, causing me to cling to him, to hold myself up against his muscular frame. I want to wrap myself around him like a vine and never let him go.

Instead, I walk home in a daze, repeating to myself how wrong it was, how evil he is, but how can I convince myself of that with this out of control inferno blazing inside of me?

I wanted so badly to feel something…anything…besides the numbness of recent weeks and who did I turn to but the one person I’ve been able to truly count on since my miraculous resurrection; the vampire I claim to hate with a passion.

There’s definitely passion, but not of the hatred kind.

No longer numb. Haven’t been since the moment his lips took possession of mine. I need, I want, I lust, I fear, and am confused beyond reason. Things between us have changed forever, and I know that because of him; my life will never be the same.

Safe 

Summary: Spike’s thoughts in between Buffy coming to his crypt and getting to the Bronze in Fool For Love.

A/N And again I say Happy Birthday TAM! The last line was added by Betafish, so you got a little gift from him too. Thanks to Steph and Copykween who both took a look and said it was good.  Rating: PG (March 17, 2006) Disclaimer: We all know who owns it and it sure the hell isn’t me.

She wants to know how I killed the other two slayers. Goin’ as far as to offer me a nice bit of dosh for my story. I knew something was wrong with the girl when she pinned me to the wall. There was none of her usual bone crushin’ pain behind the move and she had the lingerin’ scent of old blood on her. Some nasty got a taste and has the chit runnin’ scared. Why else would she come to me? 

Of course, I’ll tell the insufferable bint what she wants to know and more besides, but can’t be too obvious with wantin’ to keep her safe. She’d bloody well think I was up to something if I gave over too easy. 

I guess I’ll be following her more closely from now on, just so this doesn’t happen again. Can’t let her go around gettin’ hurt, a man needs his peace after all.

In His Eyes

A glimpse into Buffy’s thoughts during Lie To Me.Disclaimer: It all belongs to Joss Whedon and Mutant Enemy. Disclaimer: It all belongs to Joss Whedon and Mutant Enemy. Completed Feb 10, 2006

*~*~

Holding Drusilla, threatening stake positioned for the kill, she could feel the tension flowing from Spike’s stance and see the terror at the thought of losing his love. Buffy’s heartache and mistrust for the one that was supposed to love her compounded, making it hard to breath. Never had she seen this kind of love in Angel’s eyes and wondered if what she’d told Ford was the truth.

If this creature before her was completely evil, why wasn’t he ripping into her? Vampires didn’t show concern. Emotional attachments weren’t possible. So why was he letting everyone go? Why was he stressing over the stake pressed to his girlfriend’s un-beating heart? And how was it possible - in his demonic state - to have such a soft look of loving awe while gazing upon Drusilla’s face?

Her world was turned inside out by just one small moment, never to be the same.
