~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Buffy was tired. Not sleepy tired or anything like that. Just tired of going on. Living with the burden of knowing that there is always evil around. Of knowing the fact that the vampires she hunts at night were once friends or people she went to school with or people that she saw around the town. And of knowing the fact that the one man she truly loved had gone back to being evil because of her and he was now out to kill her and her friends. That's why when a vamp attacked her, she didn't give it her all. Of course there was those couple of punches and kicks every now and then but when she was knocked down and the vamp bit her. She didn't resist. She felt her life draining away and then all of a sudden it just stopped. She looked up to see that Angelus had staked the vamp and then she blacked out.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Angelus was walking around the graveyard thinking of something good to do to the Slayer and her little friends. He was still thinking when he came upon Buffy and a vamp fighting. He stood against a tombstone and watched them. He noticed that something was a bit off by the way she way she was fighting. He saw the vamp knock her down and then bite her. That was when he rushed over and staked the vamp only to see Buffy look at him and then faint. He picked her up and took her to his new place. He couldn't take her to the mansion because of Spike and Dru and this was the one thing Spike needed to get back at him for all those wheelchair jokes. He layed her down on his bed and put the blankets on her. He checked her neck and saw that it was healing but he needed to clean the wound. He got up and walked in to the bathroom all the time wondering what the hell was he thinking.
(For this is going to hurt like hell.
She's the slayer for crying outloud. I mean she made you feel human. Are you going to let her get away with that? He asked himself. He glanced back at the bed and looked at her sleeping form. He turned back to the bath room to get everything he needed. Pansey ass
(What is it in me that refuses to believe?
He took out the medical supplies and walked back down to the bed. He took out the cloth and cleaned her neck. Then he got a bandage out and put it on her neck. He walked back over to a chair to sit down and wait for her to wake up.
(My love, let nothing come between us.
He thought about turning her right now. It's not like she would be able to stop him. He could have her by his side for eternity. She wasn't like the other slayers he had known. He had killed a couple in his day but they were all fight and no spunk. He liked that spunk with her.
(So now you're sleeping peaceful,
She started to move a little and she opened her eyes. She had no idea where she was. Buffy sat up and looked around the room. Her eyes came to rest on a figure in the darkness sitting on a chair. She couldn't tell who it was.
"Awake now Buff?" Angelus asked.
She just stared at him in shock first before finally answering.
(Oh god if you're out there wont't you hear me. I know
"Angelus. Where am I?" she asked
"My place. Just one of many." He smirked.
"Why have you brought me here?"
"You know..I don't have the slightest clue really. But let's not talk about that. Let's talk about how you just let a vamp bite you?"
"Why would you care. If I'm not mistaken I've been on your list to kill lately," she said while glaring at him.
"That's different."
(So now you're sleeping peaceful I lie awake
"And this isn't?" Buffy just stared at him
As Angelus stared in to Buffy's eyes he saw all the pain in them.
"What do you want Buffy?" he asked.
"To just end it," she whispered. "Please. I can't go on."
(Now you're sleeping peaceful I lie awake
"You can't know what it's like to go on. Day after day knowing that the safety of this world is in your hands and your hands alone. I'm not helping it that much you know. I mean people are still dying. The vampires that I stake at night are people that I just talked to the day before." Tears slipped down her face as she was talking.
He just stared at her trying to figure out what to do.
(Hold on, hold on to yourself
