Chapter 1 - Brooding about it.

In the beginning he was angry, very, very angry. He broke everything that he managed to get his hands on, until the former headquarters for Angel Investigations was completely trashed. Every item was Spike in his mind, every thing that he threw was his anger. He was supposed to have achieved the shanhsu, it was supposed to be his destiny to become human once again, but no, Spike was now human. He had his soul for more than eighty years, Spike only had his for a little over one year. Wesley had told him that it was because Spike had sought out his soul, that he had worked for it, passed the trials that he was put through, apparently stay celibate and saving the world every day wasn't enough.

Of course Buffy came she was overjoyed that Spike was human. They talked for a long time she told Spike that she meant it when she said that she loved him, but he had to wonder weather she would have still loved him if he were still a vampire, if he were still immortal. They kissed, it made him sick to see it and in the end they decided that they would give their relationship a try. Buffy has since moved to LA and they go out on dates like every other human being on this damned planet they go to the movies, walks in the park in the daylight no less, Spike was giving Buffy everything that Angel couldn't, hell one day there might even marriage and children.

Spike, well he took it all very well he was happy, thrilled, hell words could not explain how happy he was. He managed to consume four pizzas, a box of Twinkies, and a full course meal in an hour when he first came back, and when he got sick from everything he ate that made him even happier. He dragged Fred outside to watch his first sunrise in over a hundred and thirty years, followed by a trip to the beach a few days later, what pissed Angel off was that Spike managed to get a tan on that first trip. To the others he was called William but Angel continued to call him Spike, in his opinion this was not the William that Angelus had trained to become a master vampire, the same one that had killed two slayers, and become a legend for his use of spikes. Yes he had to admit that part of the reason that he still called him Spike was out of jealousy, and he had been called on it by Gunn, and they talked about it, Angel had to admit that he was thankful for Gunn he was the only one that has managed to stay indifferent to this human Spike, there for he was someone that Angel could talk to about it.

Willow came, not because she wanted to meet the new and improved human Spike, but because she was worried about Angel and to give him a little gift, a permanent soul, he could not lose this soul if he were to achieve perfect happiness, not like that will happen anytime soon, but it was the thought that count. He and Willow sat down and talked for a long time, she offered her own brand of comforting words and a shoulder to lean on if he needed it. But eventually she left and Angel began to brood about it going through the stages of becoming angry and then sad, and finally accepting that Spike was human and he wasn't that he gave up him one opportunity of being human.

Long after the hotel became a complete mess Angel came to the realization that he was alone, that he would be alone, he was once again back to being the only vampire with a soul, that he was no longer like Buffy because she was no longer to only slayer In the world no longer the chosen one. Everyone else that he was friends with were all human, they would all die one day, sure he could turn them if he wanted to, but he wouldn't, they didn't deserve that damnation. However it was after that thought that he realized that he wasn't really alone he still had one person left someone that would live as long as he did, someone that really loved him almost worshipped him, and sure he had tried to kill her but it possible that she would have forgiven him by now. He wasn't alone as long as he had her.

His baby girl, his beautiful dark haired childe, his Drusilla.
