Buffy and Spike: The Return

48- Blood is blood

SPIKE'S POV

Giles came over shortly after Buffy had called him, he didn't sound happy. Willow had accompanied him with some books, but no one else had come.

'I can't believe you went behind my back with this Buffy' was the first thing he said when walking through the door

Willow walked past Giles ignoring what he had just said, 'I've done some research and I think it may be the same stuff that poisoned Angel when we were younger'

'But that cure was from slayer blood?' Buffy replied 'that... nearly killed me'

'I know' Willow replied 'I can keep looking up alternate options but I don't think there will be many'

'I'm not drinking your blood Buffy' I said to her watching her face as I could tell she was already considering it

'As long as you don't drain me I'll be fine' she smiled weakly

'No' I said again 'not happening'

'Yes I agree' Giles replied

'There is too much tension in this room!' Buffy snapped, she pointed at Giles 'you and Willow need to sort your problems out and the only person who has control over who drinks my blood, is me!' she stormed off upstairs

'There may be another option' Willow said sitting next to me on the lounge 'might be a little weird though'

'What is it?' I asked feeling confused and slightly frightened

'Well, Jessica is a slayer, and since she is a vampire now she can't die if you drain her blood'

'No' I instantly replied

'Why not?' Willow frowned

'Because vampires aren't meant to drink other vampires blood, it's sort of weird' I explained

'Oh don't be a baby' she teased

'What's going on?' Buffy asked walking down the stairs still clearly upset

'Nothing' I told her

'Spike doesn't like my other option' Willow mentioned

'Well, what is it?' Buffy responded

'I said he could drink Jessica's blood because she technically is a slayer'

'That sounds like a great idea, could it work?' Buffy looked at Giles

Giles was sitting glumly in the corner sulking but stood up and walked over to us, 'I guess theoretically it should work' he said

'That's great' Buffy chimed

'I don't want to' I told them 'that's the end of that' I struggled trying to pull myself off the lounge but found my arms had gone weak, 'think I'll stay here' I murmured to myself.
