(no subject)

This week's challenge was great. I can go back and do drabbles for all the challenges I missed! I doubt I'll get that many in, though. This is the beginning of them. It might be all, but I sure hope not. I delved into some pairings that I don't usually write, but love anyway. Enjoy!

DISCLAIMER: It's like the subject 'you.' It's understood that I don't own this.

Challenge: 047 Truth and/or Lies
Title: Blinded
Fandom: Buffy the Vampire Slayer, S7 Post-Conversations With Dead People
Summary: Andrew contemplates Jonathon’s murder.
Rating: PG
Pairing: Warren/Andrew

There were plenty of noble reasons to kill best friends: ending their lives because of terminal illnesses, sacrificing their lives for the lives of thousands of others, and saving them from becoming tools of evil. Those were all fine, acceptable reasons, but they weren’t why Andrew killed.

Andrew killed for a love that would not go away, no matter how hard he cried himself to sleep. Deep down, he knew that Warren never . . . He knew that Warren couldn’t be alive. But he was, and he said all the right things.

Andrew killed Jonathon for a beautiful lie.


Challenge: 037 How Long?
Title: Secret
Fandom: Buffy/Angel, Post-series.
Summary: Andrew’s hiding something.
Rating: PG
Pairing: Andrew/? (I’m not giving it away just yet)

The music was loud. The glasses were full. The bodies couldn’t stop moving. It was the perfect club. No one cared who you were. It was a different sort of atmosphere. Andrew reveled in it.

He didn’t know how long he could keep this dream alive. The Council was bound to find out. At this moment, Andrew couldn’t have cared less.

He moved closer to the body behind him. Strong arms wrapped around him and parted lips ghosted over his neck. Andrew laughed and tilted his head back. If only Buffy knew what the Immortal did on his business trips.

I love the first one, so much. Very well done.

Lovely! That first one is so bittersweet - he knows he did wrong, but Warren was so very important to him. And then - The Immortal! Hee! Now I'm imagining her disbelief - not that the Immortal has cheated on her, but that it was with Andrew of all people! :D

Ahhh... Poor Andrew - poor Jonathon!!! Perfect dear! Just beautiful!

And this last one was a good chuckle! That chickie never seems to be able to keep track of her boyfriends... *VBEG.....*
