Spike looked down at the gaudy amulet he held in his hand. He wasn't sure what would happen after he slipped it on. Whatever it was, he was sure it wouldn't balance out all the harm he'd done over the past hundred plus years. He wasn't even sure if he were equal to the task. But Buffy had chosen him, and he wouldn't let her down.

He glanced up at the sound of footsteps on the stairs. Her voice trembled slightly when she asked, "You ready?"

Spike slipped the chain over his head and nodded.

"Let's go save the world."

Drabble: Reflections on love

Setting: Post Becoming 2

Buffy's POV


It hurt so much. Sometimes she'd stop breathing; her breath halting for what seemed like hours until she'd gasp, feeling light-headed and sick.

And she wished the dreams would stop. Every night he came to her and held her and then crumbled to dust in her hands. She'd wake up crying out his name, heart aching, shivering from cold even though the room sweltered.

She wanted to die, to forget, to go back in time and fix things.

But she couldn't.

Angel had taught her many things. And at the end he'd taught her a very important lesson.

Love kills.

He's evil. They all told me he was, but I always defended him. I thought he was my friend. He protected me. How could he be evil?

But Xander told me what he did to Buffy. He tried to... to... He kept saying he loved her. But I guess he didn't really.

Because people who love you don't do... that.

So, yeah, I guess he is evil after all. And now he's gone, run away.

Well good! I'm glad he's gone. I hope I never see him again because if I do I'll...

I'm just glad I never loved him.
