Riley Finn walked glumly along the street, shoulders hunched, hands
thrust deeply in his pockets, his feet kicking at any rocks and sticks he
encountered along the way.
The week had started out fine. Just like any other week. Then things had
gone, well, he couldn’t exactly say ‘bad’ from there, but not quite as they
should have! And he knew exactly where the blame lay for his current
predicament. Her, that bitch, and that damned
peroxide menace as well.
His steps became more hesitant as he approached his destination, not
that he didn’t want to go home, of course he did. He
just didn’t like to see the look of disappointment on her face, and he knew she
was going to be disappointed in him, there was no doubt in his mind there!
Steeling himself, he squared his shoulders, fixed a happy grin on his
face and walked in.
“Hon, I’m back.” He looked around, where was she? A chill of dread
tingled its way down his spine, what if she had left, what if she didn’t want
him anymore? He knew he wasn’t everything she had wanted him to be, he knew he
had been a major let down, but he was going to make it up to her, he really
was! If only she would give him another chance, he knew he could get it
right next time, he just needed that chance. His eyes closed, attempting to
fight off the tears that began to prickle and sting.
With his eyes closed he did not see the blonde vision that swept into
the room, her face lighting up at the sight of him.
“Pookey bear! You’re home.” She threw herself
at him, her strong arms encasing his massive body in a tight embrace. “Tell me,
tell me all about it my little snookums!” She planted wet kisses all over
his face and he wanted to stay like this forever basking in the glow of her
adoration. He did not want to have to tell her he had failed, didn’t
want to see the light of love and adulation die in her eyes, to be replaced
with the almost ever present regret and disappointment.
“I..ah…,” he began
“well you see…”
“No! No, don’t tell me you failed! You know that isn’t what I want to
hear.” Her eyes flashed gold for a moment, before melting back to their usual,
beseeching blue. “You were supposed to kill her,” she stamped one dainty foot
petulantly. “You know how happy that would make me, so why didn’t you do it?”
“I tried, honestly, I looked everywhere, but I couldn’t find her.” Riley
desperately pleaded with her. “And then, I was hungry and so I came home, I will
kill her though, I promise, I just need… please?” He fixed her with what he
hoped was a look of complete adoration, she was his world, his Sire and he
needed her. Without her he was nothing. “Please?” he begged. Suddenly he
remembered the one thing that was sure to gain her forgiveness, reaching inside
his jacket Riley pulled out his token, moving it so that the light danced
across its surface, drawing her attention. Riley’s mouth began to water
as he watched, hoping for a sign that she would relent, would give him what he
so desired, what he needed desperately.
With a sigh of exasperation Harmony relented, he really was so cute, her
little pookey bear, and he was only a couple
of days old, she was sure that one day soon he would learn the stealth required
to successfully hunt his own food. He had also bought her that cute little
crystal unicorn that she’d had her eye on.
With a little squeal of excitement Harmony snatched the unicorn from
Riley’s hand before gently placing it on a small shelf that held a dozen
others. Stepping back Harmony admired her little family for a few
minutes, moving them each in turn so that they all looked their best, sighing
Harmony turned back to watch Riley.
He was fidgeting with his shirt hem while he looked at her with large
pleading eyes. Harmony giggled, he looked just like a big ole goofy puppy
when he did that! He was her childe, and she guessed that did make him her
responsibility, “alright, just a little.” She tilted her head to the side and
drew her long golden hair out of the way, exposing her neck to her starving
offspring, offering him the gift of Sire’s blood that he so desperately longed
for.
Riley reached out and grabbed her quickly in case she changed her mind,
his mouth watering at the thought of what was on offer. Lowering his head he
plunged his fangs into her delicate flesh and waited for the glorious rush of
powerful blood, the blood of his sire!
A slight trickle was his only reward; damn he had missed the vein,
again. Removing his fangs he took careful aim this time before once more
plunging them deep, this time one fang managed to pierce the vein and his mouth
filled with the sweet taste he had longed for. After a too brief amount of time
she shoved him off and he landed hard, butt first on the cold hard floor of
their crypt.
“That’s enough. Now get out there and kill me that slayer!”
“But the sun will be up in four hours,” his voice trembled with fear at
the thought of being caught out in those deadly rays.
“Well you better get a move on then, hadn’t you!”
Her foot stamped hard against the concrete in emphasis. Softening her tone she
lowered herself, planting teasing kisses along his jaw she murmured, “You want
to make Mommy happy don’t you?” Harmony wriggled her way onto his lap, smiling
as she felt his reaction to her nearness “And Mommy would be very, very happy
if you killed The Slayer”
His eyes lighting with delight at the promise her body was offering,
Riley struggled to his feet. “Yes, yes of course. I will, I promise.”
With that he left the crypt, once more heading out into the night in
search of the slayer. If he could only track her down he knew he could kill
her. She would welcome him into her arms when he fed her his sob story about
how sorry he was. He knew she was pissed at him, after the bleached wonder had
taken her to witness his night time activities, but if he layered it on thick
with the puppy dog eyes and the whole ‘I was wrong’ crap he should be able to
get her to forgive him, after all it worked on his Sire, and once he had her in
his arms…
Now all he had to do was find her! He had looked earlier, searched the
graveyards and checked out the house and The Bronze. He had not found her or
any of her friends. Maybe her Watcher’s apartment, yeah, that’s where he would
try next!
Rounding the corner of Giles’ street, he
ran head first into one of the slayer’s little friends. “Xander, how are you?
Have you seen Buffy anywhere?” He fixed the young man with his typical goofy
smile. His eyes flitting across the young man’s body as he began to form a
plan.
“Riley, my man! Ah, no, Buff’s not been
around so much the last few days, did you guys have a fight cause
she seemed pretty upset the last time I saw her.”
“Yeah, kinda,” Riley looked sheepishly at the ground while twirling his foot, toe first, against the pavement. “That’s why I was
looking for her, I really need to apologise. If you see her, could you let her
know I’m looking for her?” Riley watched Xander through his lashes, waiting to
see if he had picked up on the changes in him.
Xander frowned as he noticed Riley giving him a strange look “Sure
thing. Look, if you’re not doing anything right now, why don’t we head to The
Bronze, have a game of pool. You never know, Buff might show there later.”
Xander fixed the soldier with a hopeful smile, gee he looked up to this guy, he was so pleased when Buffy had started to date him. At
last a guy in their group and not a kooky supernatural weirdo like Angel, or Oz.
And not a pain in the ass like Spike, though why Spike had taken to showing up
everywhere and trying to hang around with their group he didn’t know, that guy
just gave him the major wiggins.
Vampires, he hated them, with a passion! And why Buffy, who’s job it was to
kill the evil bloodsuckers, seemed to spend an awful lot of time socialising
with them, in one form or another, he would just never understand.
Riley’s eyes lit up, “yeah sure, sounds like a fun.” He slung an arm
around Xanders shoulder as the two young men turned together in the direction
of the town’s only decent nightclub.
As they passed into the less well lit streets between the Watcher’s home
and their destination the former soldier struck, grabbing Xander from behind
and dragging him into the shadows. Pressing his body against Xander’s, he eyed him hungrily, “So Xander how about we try
something different before we reach the Bronze?”
Xander’s eyes grew wide as he took in
his situation, he was in a dark alley with his best
friend’s boyfriend, who was pressed up close to him, very close to him “Ummm Riley man I don’t um go in for that sort of thing.”
“And what sort of thing would that be?” Riley asked casually as he
studied Xander’s neck intently, now if he angled
Xanders head that way, and then tilted his head this way,
he should hit the vein first time.
Xander began to fidget, “Well you know An’s my girl and she keeps me very happy” Xander
gulped as Riley ran a finger across his neck, “really, really happy in fact and
we….” Xander stoped with a small high pitched squeal as Riley’s face shifted
and he sunk his fangs into his neck.
“Damn missed it” Riley lisped through his fangs “Hang on give me a
minute I’ll get it this time.” Lunging once more Riley growled in
frustration as a small trickle of blood hit his tongue “Ok, third time’s the
charm.”
