William the Bloody had faced all manner of challenges over the years; Slayers, demons, vampires and mobs alike. He was a warrior, a fighter, possessing speed and strength that few could handle, and he had laughed in the face of death over and over again. Yet here and now it seemed as if the bleach blonde vampire had finally met his match...as he struggled with the shopping cart and it's one squeaking sticky wheel. "Oh for the bloody unlife of me I swear this sodding thing was forged in a hell dimension! I mean, the noise alone is enough to drive anyone bonkers, but it keeps trying to swerve into the shelves as if it has a mind of it's own." Spike's attempts to fit into this strange human filled world; his efforts to reign in the demon and be a kind of man that was worthy of her...well it hadn't been easy. Still with Buffy as his guiding light the vampire had been making great strides.
Since arriving in Madison Valley, since meeting her, he hadn't harmed so much as a hair on the head of the humans wandering about the place. Well aside from the few he chucked out of the strip club. Hell he had even gotten a job there since he was doing his best to avoid stealing as well. Which in turn led William here...to the grocery store. For the most part he hadn't ever bothered with places like these. Oh he'd grab a bite to eat at a pub, or some smokes and alcohol from a liquor store when the need arose. Yet shopping like a normal person, actually having a list (mostly of things he thought she'd like) and going so far as even having cut out coupons too...it was a new world, and he was doing his best to fit in for Buffy.
Of course even as he struggled with the shopping cart those eyes of his glanced over to her. That smile tugging at the corner of his lips when he spotted Buffy gazing back his way too. "Right then, probably best not to just trash this damn cart...but if I catch it outside alone some time, well all bets are off, luv." With a soft chuckle the vamp playfully winked at her, pausing in the aisle to check his list before nodding to himself. "What do you think, luv? Cereal the sort of thing that you'd like? Or are you more an eggs and bacon kinda girl?"
