She was lying flat on the balcony, hair fanned around her, staring up at the sky when Danny stepped out there.
“You okay, Sunshine?”
Buffy nodded, staying quiet for a moment. “Sixth night of a full moon. It’s crazy out there.”
She knew that Danny’s job had been pretty crazy too. It wasn’t just the supernatural that went nuts during a full moon. Hers kept her up and out until dawn. She’d get a couple of hours of sleep and then go off to work. The exhaustion was starting to wear on her.
“You’re handlin’ it alright.” It was part affirmation and part question. She could hear the worry in his voice. It hadn’t been that long ago that she’d been dead.
“I eat apocalypses for breakfast,” Buffy quipped, the words not quite as peppy as she’d like them to be.
“That what we’re callin’ it?” Danny asked as he sat down next to her.
Buffy shrugged in response. “I don’t know. We don’t have enough information yet. Giles is researching. Oz is researching. Willow is doing her witchy thing but…we don’t know. Something this major…if we don’t stop it…probably.” She knew she should probably sugar coat things. She was too tired to sugar coat and Danny would figure it out eventually anyway.
“You’ll figure it out, Summers. Gotta believe that,” Danny said, bending over to press a kiss to her cheek and then her lips. Buffy leaned up into the kiss then sighed when it broke.
“And I need to patrol,” she said with a pout. She pushed herself to a sitting position. “I’ll wake you when I get home? We can pick up there.”
“Boom,” Danny grinned. “Be careful, Sunshine.”
“Nope but I’ll be back later,” Buffy said as she got to her feet. Careful didn’t ever figure into patrol but especially not during the freak things.
