The journey back seemed shorter then the journey to the cave. This time they completely by-passed the area, Buffy and Faith called the first slayers grave. The sun was just rising as the building came into view.

Angel and Spike ran ahead to avoid any burning, so it wasn't much of a surprise to see Giles and Oz waiting for the rest of them. Sensing they were tired they let the group get some rest before hounding them for information about the cave.

Spike was almost asleep when he felt someone enter his room. He tensed his body waiting for an attack, when none came he slowly sat up to glance around the room he was given. He almost didn't see her standing n the shadows.

"Buffy?" he couldn't believe what he was seeing. Spike didn't understand why she was here and not with his grandsire. That was until she spoke.

"Not quite, but you find this form very appealing" Buffy shimmered for a second before being replaced by Illyria.

"Hey Blue what can't sleep" Spike asked wondering what the god king wanted with him.

Illyria came and sat on the end of the bed.

"Lately there has been this feeling I cannot ignore, at first I thought it belong to my sister, but we can't share our emotions." Illyria looked at Spike liked he owned the answer.

"why the bleedin hell are you coming to me for then pet."

"Because when I'm around you the feelings are at their strongest"

Spike just stared at the God King, he couldn't believe what he was hearing, he got the almighty Illyria to have feelings.

"Well I don't control your feelings love, so I don't know what you want from me"

"Help me understand them, so I might get rid of them on my own." Illyria said

"Fine but not til I've gotten my beauty sleep"

"Very well" Illyria left the room and Spike lied back down but sleep didn't come easily to the blonde vampire.

A.N Im so sorry bout the shortness of this chapter, but I wanted to give you guys something this Spike/Illyria thing is hard to write. R & R please.
