FORETOLD FUTURE (1/2)
 

Willow stumbled through the crowd. It was getting loud. She looked at
the clock and frowned. 11:35pm. Almost midnight on New Years Eve 1999
and she was alone. She made it through the people to her and Buffy's
dorm. She closed the door and sighed. Thank Goddess. Peace and quiet.
She had tried to enjoy the party. She really had. She just wasn't in a
festive partying mood. She would assure Buffy that she had done her duty
as best friend. Willow lay on the bed and watched the clock. She
wondered if this was a sign of what the rest of her life would be like.
Her alone and miserable. She'd heard that whoever you were with on New
Year's was who you would spend the rest of the year with. If that was
true, did it also stand for centuries? She imagined, with her luck, that
it did.

Xander and Anya were together. Buffy was at the floor party with Riley.
Giles was with some old friend. Oz was somewhere. She didn't know
where...she didn't care. She was over that. If only everyone would
believe her when she told them that. But no, they just smiled politely
and nodded, as though she were a child. Everyone except Spike. He just
didn't care. He ignored her completely, when he wasn't trying to kill
her. She saw the minutes changing. Closer to midnight. She closed her
eyes. She didn't want to see the 12:00 flash.
 

Willow felt someone move beside her and sat up. What the hell.....The
room was dark. She listened and heard no noise from the party. She
looked at the clock, but it was no longer on her desk. She looked
closer. There wasn't even a desk there. (I know I had nothing to
drink.....) She felt movement and then a hand on her back. She almost
purred at the reassuring, familiar (?) touch. She looked around the room
until she spotted a clock. It read 4:30. I must have fallen asleep.
Buffy probably moved me....must have wanted her privacy. She felt the
hand move around her waist.

"Bad dream, luv?"

She turned sharply and her eyes widened. Spike. Naked Spike. In her bed.
In his bed? What? Suddenly, he smiled that sexy smirk. "Let Spike make
it better."

He leaned in and captured her mouth. She felt a slow fire start to burn
deep inside of her and spread out to every nerve ending in her body.
What was she doing here with Spike? She felt his cold hand on her
breast. She suddenly made a decision. Fuck it. She reached around him
and pulled him closer.
 

FORETOLD FUTURE (2/2)
 

Willow felt him shift on the bed, laying her underneath him. He chuckled
against her mouth.

"Luv....you act as thought we haven't done this before."

Willow pulled away and looked into his blue eyes. "We have?"

"Bloody hell...don't tell me you forgot. Only every night for the last
ten years."

Willow sat up and looked at him. "What? I haven't known you for ten
years."

"Willow...sweetie...I don't know where your mind is. I've known you for
over twelve years. Remember? Me, Dru--killing the slayer and all that.
1997ish. You were sixteen....lovely even then." He smiled.

"Spike...I don't know what game you're playing, but its just now 1999.
Well, actually, I guess its 2000. New Years Eve and all that."

Spike looked at her and then started laughing. "God, Pet. You almost had
me there. How sweet. Remembering our first night together......That's
when you realized you loved me. I'd always known that I loved you...Took
you a bit longer. Ah...what a night. I still can't believe I almost
missed you. I can't imagine my life without you. It would have been
miserable."

Willow was shocked. She must be dreaming. She was going crazy. She saw
the love and tenderness in Spike's eyes. For her? She suddenly knew that
she loved him. Had loved him for years. She looked around the room. They
lived together. Here. Had for ten years. She couldn't explain this
knowledge. It was just there. Turning back to him, she smiled. She moved
to him and drew him in for a kiss. She felt him give in. His hands
slowly undressing her. She laid back and gave herself over to him. He
licked and kissed here stomach, her breasts, her neck, her thighs...when
she felt his tongue on her wet center, she thought she might die. She
reached down and gripped his head. Moaning his name as he pleasured her.
She felt herself about to cum. She closed her eyes and waited for her
release.

Willow opened her eyes. The room was light. Loud noise came from outside
her door. She groaned. She was alone again. Her body was aching for
Spike. A desire that only he could put out burned inside her. She got up
and noticed that the clock read 11:50. She had been asleep for less than
ten minutes? How? She felt a tremor pass over her. She needed him. She
had to find him.

She opened the door and ran into the party. She imagined she looked like
a madwoman. She got outside and looked at her watch. 11:54. She broke
out into a run. She only had six minutes. She got to his apartment and
hurried up the stairs. She heard noise from a part next door. She looked
at her watch. 11:58. She knocked. No answer. She knocked again. Still no
answer. She groaned in disappointment.

"Looking for me pet?" She heard from behind her. Turning, she saw him.
Her body called to him. She saw curiosity in his eyes. She looked
closer, deeper. She gulped when she saw the love, hidden in their
depths. She started down the stairs towards him.

10 - 9 - 8 -7 - 6 -

Her eyes never left his as she touched his face. She stood on her
tiptoes and touched her mouth to his. He didn't move.

5 - 4 - 3 -

Suddenly, his arms went around her, pulling her into his hard body. His
tongue entered her mouth, tasting her.

2 - 1 Happy New Year..... could be heard the apartment upstairs. Willow
and Spike were oblivious to the noise. Willow knew she was now where she
was supposed to be....in Spike's arms.
