Buffy kissed him quickly and reached down to get her bags. He pulled her back up to him and kissed her again, slower. When they parted, she smiled at him and pecked him on the lips. "Goodbye, lover," she whispered and pressed her forehead to his.

"I love you, Buffy."

"Ditto."

He smiled at her and picked up a leather handbag and handed it to her. "I've got to go... Bye!" She ran down onto the train. At the end of the carriage she stopped at a window, blew on it, and wrote him a message.

Marry me?

"Hell yes!"
