“And they say romance is dead,” quipped Giles nervously, torn between the incongruity of a seven-foot demon carrying a large bouquet of red roses, and his own practical need to back the hell away.

Looking…for…Slayer.

“That would be good, about now,” Giles admitted, his voice an octave too high.

The demon smiled with sticky teeth as Giles felt the thud of brick wall at his back, cutting off any further retreat. The roses were discarded to reveal a blood-stained hunting knife.

Looking…for…Slayer.”

Buffy’s voice rang out like a bell behind them.

“You found me.”

Awww, just another one of Buffy's admirer's, right? Oh, maybe not. Haha! I really enjoyed this, especially poor Giles in those first stages of panic...adorable.

Oh clever drabble! And the thought of a Seven foot demon with flowers is hilarious! Was he trying to pretend he was a unassuming delivery boy?

A little artwork inspired by your drabble Saying It With Flowers. Hope you like.

I have tried to share this with you twice. However, sometimes my internet connection has meltdowns. Hopefully the third time will be the charm. Fingers crossed.
