Crushed Spaiku, Part 6: Fess Up (7/12)

This entry is part 12 of 33 in the series Spaiku

I.
Buffy bails, then halts,
arrested by chivalry.
Apprehension dawns.

*II.
The late-night stakeout,
the bogus suspects. The flask!
(gulp) Is this a date?

IV.
Something between us:
loathing, disgust, heat, desire.
Also? Denial.

III.
Entreats her to stay,
discover how much he’s changed;
he can be good, too.

IV.
Years of hurtful jibes
and cleaning up his messes
can’t be overcome.

VI.
Suspicions confirmed,
she repels his admission,
crushing fragile hopes.

*Found haiku taken verbatim from episode.
