                “What’s wrong?” He asked his mortal enemy.

                “I don’t wanna talk about it.” Her eyes were haunting, so sad. He’d never seen eyes so pained.

                Spike sat down and put the gun down behind him. He looked over at the slayer and patted her back, unsure of what to do. They sat for some time, quiet, looking out beyond the trees, into nothingness.

                “Spike?” She said after an hour of silence.

                “Yes?”

                She didn’t look at him, but continued to stare off into nothing. “I’m sorry.”

                “For what?”

                “I wouldn’t wanna die at just any demon’s hands.”

                “What?”

                “Suppose the day does come when… you’re the only one I’d wanna dance with.”

                What? He asked himself over and over. Had this not been the girl who a couple hours ago said that he was beneath her? He just sat, taking the information in.

                “Just promise me something.”

                “What?” He asked her.

                “Promise me that when the day comes, that you’ll make it quick.”

                “Won’t hurt a bit.” He replied.
