Holiday Blues

by bad shot

Chapter 3

[reviews]

A/N: One more thing that may help this chapter. They never found out about initiative. Spike didn't come back to Sunnydale yet, and Adam never happened.

Chapter 3

Willow scrambled quickly out of the crypt so she could get a connection for her pager. She paged Giles and the others marking the file urgent. She ran back down and started to access the injuries on Tara. She let out a breath when she saw nothing life threatening. She quickly dabbed salve on her bruises and had started to disinfect the cuts when the others showed up.

"Oh god is she okay?" Dawn asked genuine concern in her voice.

Willow let out a small smile and said, "Yes. She will have a huge headache but nothing life threatening."

"Willow do you know who did this?" Giles asked starting to look over Tara himself.

Willow shook her head at him, "No, but she hasn't had a chance to talk yet."

Willow calmly shook Tara and rocked her back and forth, "W-Will is that you?"

Willow almost sprouted tears hearing Tara speak, "Of course I will always be here."

Tara took Willows hand and started to cry, "I-I-It w-w-as B-B-B-Buffy," she managed to get out in a very nervous and scared voice.

"Wait did she just say Buffy did this, because she can't I mean she was mad but this is kinda stepping over the line," Xander said pacing the dusty floor.


An hour later and they still didn't know if it was really Buffy who did this or not.

'Why would she do this?' Willow thought. The question was in a continuous loop in her mind and she still couldn't answer it.

She was still pacing the floor madly back and forth in her dorm room when her cell phone rang.

"Hello," rang the uncertain voice of Buffy on the phone.

"Buffy," Willow said somewhat angrily, thinking about her best friend.

"Willow I have something to say so please promise that you won't interrupt me," Buffy said waiting uncertainly on the other line in a old gas station.

"Fine Buffy try to make this quick," Willow said tapping her foot impatiently.

"Okay, first got to ask you why your being so bitchy right now?" Buffy asked.

"You didn't think that what you did would make me bitchy?" Willow said confusion now in her voice.

"Okay maybe I deserved that I know I shouldn't have walked out on you but you need to know... I love you," Buffy said sincerely.

"Buffy that was no reason to do what you did," Willow said in an almost motherly voice.

"Will I know I shouldn't have walked out but..."

"Buffy you think that is what I am mad about? I am mad about to fact that you beat the hell out of my girlfriend!" Willow yelled.

"Wait a minute I did what?" Buffy asked her voice getting smaller.

"Goddess Buffy could you at least take responsibility for what you did," Willow said starting to cry, "Buffy just go. Goodbye."

The last thing Willow heard from Buffy was, "Willow wait."


Buffy stood still holding the dirty phone in shock over what her best friend had just said.

'Did she say I beat up Tara?'

She walked out of the gas station mouth hanging open still thinking about how Willow could think that. She was still thinking about that when a dark figure came out of the alleyway and swung at her head with a bat. Almost as soon as she was hit she fell to the ground knocked out.

"Well Dru we finally have ourselves a slayer," Spike said lighting a cigarette and walking up to his insane girlfriend.

"When can we have some fun Miss Edith wants to have fun. The other blond wasn't that much fun," Drusilla cooed.

"Luv you need to show some patience she won't wake up for another hour at least, and you know it's so much more fun when you can see the pain in their eyes," Spike explained. Drusilla whimpered a littler but nodded and brought their heads together in a kiss.

A/N: Hope you like it keep the reviews coming and I will keep writing.
P.S: Happy Holidays. Don't worry this fic will get a little brighter in a bit.
