Chapter 1

Sunnydale, outside Buffy's house

It had been three months since the well "incident". Three long tough months in la but finally Buffy was coming home. She had started to realize that maybe life without angel might not be as bad as she thought it would be i mean who really needs a vampire boyfriend. Okay this was it she was about to walk into her house, she wondered what her mother's reaction would be she didn't take the fact that her daughter was a slayer to well. Buffy didn't know whether to knock or use her house she figured knocking would be better than just barging in so she settled on knocking.

Joyce heard a knock on the front door figuring it was probably some sails man she ignored it when she heard the second knock she got up from the coach she thought that a sails man would probably only knock once and then move on to the next house. When she opened the door her heart skipped a beat because there standing right in front of her was her daughter. The last time shed seen her she had been so shocked when she had found out the truth about what her daughter was that she was a vampire slayer that she had told her that if she went out that door not to even bother coming back at all and Buffy did just that. Joyce hadn't really meant what she said and know that her daughter was back she was so relieved that she hugged her right then and there.

"So you're not mad at me" Buffy said.

" no it was all my fault I didn't really mean what I said" Joyce said between sobs " now I'm going to make it up to you but first I want to know everything that has happened from when you first what do you call it were called to be a slayer".

So Buffy told her everything leaving a few things that she would never tell her mother in a million years "so that's it now you know everything"

"I still can't believe that that nice man was an evil vampire he seemed so good and the way he looked at you, with such adoration in his eyes almost as if he would step in front of a speeding bullet for you"

Buffy knew what she was talking about angel had still had feelings for even when he was evil "well angel was..."

"No, no not that one" Joyce had always disliked angel from the start it was almost as if she knew he was a threat "the other one, the one that helped you kill angel"

Buffy's eyes widened her mother couldn't be talking about... no that wasn't possible but it had to be him there was no other one that helped her kill angel. With hesitation Buffy said "spike"

Somewhere in South America, 3 months ago

Spike and Drusilla were out hunting, Dru was still furious with spike for what he had done back in Sunnydale spike didn't truly understand what had happened back there when he had seen the slayer about to be killed by angelus he had had the sudden urge to save her , but of course she hadn't died because if angelus had won the world would be gone or at least every one in it dead or alive would be, maybe that was all it was he just didn't want the world to end and maybe he didn't have any feelings for her at all. He looked over at dru, his dru and saw her glaring at him.

"It hurts it hurts" she cried out.

Spike ran over to her and scooped her up into his arms "what is it pet" he said to her

"The pixies in my head are whispering to me they say you love the slayer, and it's true I can see her dancing around you your covered in her, when I look at you all I see is her"

*Oh bloody hell*, spike thought to himself

Sunnydale, present time

Spike was sitting on top of a tomb stone he was still depressed that dru had dumped him three months ago. He had been secretly living in Sunnydale for the past three months actually he'd been here in the place that he swore he'd never come back to ever since dru had dumped him. He'd even promised the slayer that he would never come back ,well he'd never been big on promises anyway but there was something about her she was unlike any slayer he had ever come across, deep down every slayer has a death wish but Buffy she was different *I wonder if she's come back yet* he thought *wonder if shell kill me, that would be plain disrespectful if she did I mean I was there with her fighten angel 'n' all, well I should probably be off if she is back and she is gonna kill me then i probably shouldn't be out while she's patrolin*. Spike headed off to his crypt it had served as a pretty good home the past three months he'd even found an old tv in the junk yard and had surprisingly gotten it to work

When spike got back to his crypt he sat in his chair and watched some late night TV, a rerun of passions was on it was his favourite soap. He fell asleep while he watched which was odd because he usually slept during the day.

Spikes crypt

Buffy walks into spikes crypt with a stake in her hand

"So you've come to kill me then" spike said

"Yeah and what if I did" Buffy replied

"Can you really do it, do you have the guts"

"You know I have killed vampires before or did you forget what the word slayer means "

"Do it then kill me just make it quick "

Buffy did just the opposite she ended up kissing him the kiss went on for about five minutes then they finally broke apart

"Spike" Buffy whispered

"Buffy I love you" he said

Spikes crypt

Spike jolted upright in his arm chair awakening from the dream a look of shock was on his face

"God no, please no" he said
