Lyrics this part from 112's "Peaches and Cream"

"Spike..." Buffy said breathlessly.

"Buffy…what are you doing here? I've been looking all over for you," Spike said with a faint smile on his face, relieved to just look into her eyes.

"I…I don't want to talk about it…I just need to get my bag from the room," she said as she quickly walked by him and towards suite 547.

Spike grabbed her arm and spun her around, bringing them face to face, their lips just inches from each other.

"Now luv, I think we need to have a talk…" Spike breathed into Buffy's ear. Then Spike thought about what she just said, and asked, "Why are you going into one of 'em rooms anyway?"

"You mean…you don't know?" Buffy asked, as it all came together.

"Know what luv? Is there something I'm supposed to know?" Spike asked with a smirk on his face.

Just as he asked, two hotel security guards came off the elevator, and Buffy, knowing that the children's parents probably think she had something to do with the dead body, pulled out her hotel key and grabbed Spike.

"Quick get in," she said as she pulled Spike by the collar of his suit.

"Hey, I'm not arguing with you," Spike said with a cocky grin on his face.

Once the door was securely shut behind them, Spike chose to speak first.

"Buffy, luv, what are we doing in a hotel room?"

"Did you not see those guards out there?" Buffy asked with a panicked tone. "They're after me because they think I killed someone, or something that just happened to look a lot like our good friend Maria. And there's some naked monster running around the Sombrero Society who killed her, and it's my job to find it."

"What?" Spike asked, then it hit him. "Buffy, no, Maria is the monster, the only monster."

"What…what are you talking about?" Buffy asked, totally confused by what Spike was saying.

"Maria…she is a demon…was, until I got to her…" Spike started to explain, until he was cut off by Buffy.

"So you're the naked monster the kids told me about?" Buffy asked, as she started to piece everything together.

"That'd be me," Spike grinned. "'Cept the whole 'monster' part…gave that up when I met a girl that changed that all," Spike admitted as he looked up and stared into Buffy's eyes.

"Ummm…I…" Buffy tried to find words, but was at a loss suddenly. She forced herself to look away from Spike's deep blue eyes, and try to concentrate on the matter at hand. "Okay, three questions…1) What kind of a demon was Maria? 2) How did you know she was a demon and 3) Why were you naked?" Buffy asked, the last question bringing a smile to her face.

"Ahh, what good questions…"Spike laughed. "Well, first off, Maria is what is known as El Demonio Córneo.."

"Uhh, Spike I failed French in high school," Buffy said.

"It's not French luv, it's Spanish," Spike said trying to hold back his laughter.

"Oh," was all that she said, embarrassed.

"Well, it translates to The Horny Demon, and I don't know much about it, besides the obvious fact that it's well, always horny…Watcher's the one who'll fill you in on all the details from those books of his," Spike said.

"That's seriously disturbing," Buffy said. "But how did you know she was a demon?"

"Well, this question actually ties into the whole why was I naked thing," Spike laughed.

"Explain…"Buffy said, an amused look on her face.

"I heard a voice comin from the sauna…I figured itwasyours," Spike mumbled very quickly, hoping that she hadn't heard that part, but she did.

"You thought it was me!?" Buffy exclaimed.

"Well, a guy can wish can't he?" Spike said, defeated. "Anyhow, I heard a voice, it told me to go into the sauna, so I did…I walked in, hopin to find you, but instead, Maria was there, things got ugly, I tried to leave, and she turned into a demon on me."

"How did you kill her?" Buffy asked.

"I locked her in there, turned the heat up, and before I knew it, she was dead."

"Well, at least we don't have to worry about her anymore…but we do have to watch out for those guards," Buffy said as she stuck her head out the door. "No one's there now, but they might come back…we should just lay low for a while, then we can head back to the party and find Giles and the others."

"Yea, that's a good idea pet," Spike said. "But, there's just one thing I've been meaning to ask you."

"What's that?"

"Why did you rent a room?" Spike asked with a mischievous look on his face.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Back at the party…

"Honey, have you seen Buffy or Spike recently?" Xander asked his wife. "They've been MIA for at least two hours, I'm starting to think something's up."

"Who cares?" Anya shrugged. "They're probably just getting it on, it's about time I say."

"You and the sex, should've figured that's the answer I'd get from you," Xander joked.

Suddenly, Xander heard a familiar voice over the microphone.

"Attention…excuse me all…can I have your attention please?" Giles asked.

"What is he doing?!" Anya asked, angrily. "He's ruining my party! We were just about to start the burrito eating contest!"

"I have a little song, I'd like to sing…for someone special in my life…Barbie, this one's for you…"

The music started, and 112's "Peaches n' Cream" started playing throughout the hall.

"It's the G, the I, the L, E-S…" Giles started singing.

"I think he's drunk," Tara stated, bluntly. "I've never seen him drunk before…I didn't think he knew what alcohol was."

"Yeah, but doesn't he look sexy?" Willow asked, as she dreamily stared at Giles.

"Well…he does look good in that suit…," Tara added.

"Girls, girls? What's going on here? This is GILES," Xander said.

"I don't think he looks sexy…he's ruining my fiesta!" Anya whined.

"Now the question that's running through my mind isn't whether or not the G-man looks sexy…it's how does he know this song?" Xander asked.

"Let me tell you what I wanna do…let me show you that I'm feelin you…wanna sex wanna ride wit you…wanna taste, wanna put my lips all over you…" Giles sang as he stared straight at Barbie.

"Oh my god….now this is just disturbing…" Xander said, not believing the words coming out of Giles' mouth.

"Can't get enough of you…Always taken of you…So sweet, so very wet…So good, girl you make me sweat…Girl I'm talkin' 'bout…"

"Oh…Giles you are too sexy!" Barbie screamed as she ran up to the stage.

He pulled her up, so that she was next to him, and continued singing.

"Peaches and cream…I need it cause you know that I'm a fiend…Gettin' freaky in my Citroen.…It's even better when it's with ice cream…
Know what I mean…Peaches n' Cream!" Giles sang as he started grinding against Barbie.

"Okay, that's it, I've seen enough…I'm now officially scarred for life…" Xander said as he tried to look away.

"She's so lucky…" Willow said, totally engrossed in the song, and Giles.

"Willow…remember your whole 'gay now' speech?" Xander asked. "This is Giles for god's sakes…the G-Man…old…watchery…"

"Sexy…" Tara added.

"I was going for wrinkly, but whatever you think," Xander said.

Giles continued to sing, until the song was over, and was met with a standing ovation.

"Let's get out of here…" Barbie whispered seductively in his ear.

"You don't have to ask me twice!" Giles answered, as he put the mic down, and him and Barbie made a quick escape for the hotel.

Things had settled down, until two security guards came into the hall.

"Excuse me, is there a Mr. Harris here?" Asked one of the men.

"That'd be me," Xander said.

"I'm the Mrs.!" Anya exclaimed.

"That's nice," the man said. "Has anyone gone missing from your party?"

"Well two friends…actually, one friend, and one annoying person have been missing for a while…what happened?" Xander asked, starting to worry.

"Well, there was a murder…"

"Oh my god…but what does this have to do with us?" Anya asked. "I just want to have my fiesta!"

"We need you to identify her…the victim that is."

"Buffy" Xander said, not wanting to believe what he was hearing.

"Come with us sir…you too Miss…," said one of the guards.

"That's Mrs. Now!" Anya pronounced.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Why…why I rented this room?" Buffy asked. "It's actually a really funny story…"

"Care to share?" Spike asked, loving the fact he was making her squirm.

"Not really…" Buffy said.

Spike moved over to the bed where she was sitting, and just stood there. He waited until she moved over, making room for him to sit with her.

"Well, that counts for something," he thought.

"Luv…you can tell me…"

"Noooo, please Spike, just drop it," Buffy pleaded.

"No, I'm not gonna just drop it, an' act like nothin happened…"

"Spike, you wouldn't understand…I'm not going to tell you…it's too embarrassing…," Buffy said.

"Buffy," Spike stated, as he grabbed her hands, and held them…and looked at her…really looked at her…it reminded him of the night he held her after she had been brought back by her friends.

"Spike, please…"

"Luv…I know why you rented this room," Spike said, waiting for her to admit that she had wanted them to make love, this very night.

"You…you know?" Buffy asked as she stared deep into his eyes…those eyes that constantly haunted her…but at the same time, brought so much joy and love to her life.

"Buffy, it was kind of obvious," Spike gently smiled. "I knew, I was jus' waitin for you to admit it, to both me, and yourself."

"But, I thought you never got the message…how did you know?"

"I just knew," Spike said.

"I was afraid you were rejecting me," Buffy said as she moved in closer to Spike. "I thought…I thought you didn't want me."

"Didn't want you? Buffy, have you lost it? I've wanted you since the first time I saw you…I may not have admitted it to myself then…but you've always been the one for me," Spike admitted, as he ran his hands through her hair.

"Spike…I rented this room tonight because I wanted to show you how I feel about you…" Buffy said as she leaned into his embrace. "God he smells good," she thought." "I wanted to not only show you…but tell you…"

"What did you want to tell me?" Spike asked.

"This." Buffy said, as she leaned over and ravaged his mouth.

"This feels so right," Spike said, as he continued to kiss her mouth, and started to work his way lower.

"Oh god….Spike…"

They continued to kiss for several minutes until Spike spoke.

"Buffy…I love you," Spike said breathlessly. There, he had said it. Finally.

Buffy stopped kissing him, and just stared at him for a moment, taking in what he had just said.

"Spike…I love…" Buffy started to say, but was stopped by the sudden shaking of the bed.

"What's going on?" Spike asked. "She almost said it…she almost said she loved me…she was going to," he thought.

"I don't know…is it an earthquake?" Buffy asked. "He said he loved me…wow…and I almost said it back…" she thought.

"If it was an earthquake luv, then everything else would be shaking," Spike added. "Only the bed it moving."

Suddenly, he heard laughter…coming from Buffy.

"What's so funny luv?" Spike asked confused.

"You…when you leaned back, you hit the vibrate button on the bed!" Buffy exclaimed, as she broke out into a fit of laughter.

Spike looked back, and saw that indeed, he had switched the "Vibrate Bed" button to "on". With the way everything had been going that night, Spike wasn't very surprised that this had happened. But soon, he was laughing too. The two of them were on the shaking bed, laughing their asses off, over the fact that the vibrating bed had ruined their first chance at making love.

"How ironic.." Buffy said. "I figured the vibrating bed would be a fun little extra."

"Well…it was funny alright…" Spike laughed. But his expression turned from funny to serious in a second. "Buffy, there's something I need to say though, and don't interrupt me until I'm done sayin it, alright?"

"Yes…" Buffy waited for him to start talking.

"I love you." He stated it as if it was the most obvious thing in the world, maybe that's because it was. "And I know, that you love me…even if you didn't get to say it."

"Spike, I…"

"Let me finish," he said firmly. "And as much as I want to rip off that hideous dress you're wearing and ravish you and make love to you like there's no tomorrow…"

"Yea…" Buffy said, wishing the stupid bed would stop vibrating.

"I'm not going to."

There was silence for about a minute, until Buffy spoke.

"Why not?" Simple, yet to the point.

"Luv…look where we are…we're in a place called the Sombrero Society, sitting on a sombrero shaped bed that vibrates…I mean, do you really want out first time to be here?" Spike asked.

"He has a point," Buffy thought. "But god he looks so yummy."

"I guess you're right, but…"

"Shh...no buts…" Spike said. "Let's just go back to the party, and then, we can see what happens from there."

"Okay," Buffy said as she grabbed her bag off the dresser.

Spike went over to the door to make sure there were no guards, and when the coast was clear, he motioned for Buffy to come. Before they walked out of the room though, Buffy just had to say one more thing to Spike.

"Oh, and Spike?"

"Yea luv?"

"Thank you…" Buffy said, as she grabbed his hands and kissed him on the lips.

"Anything for my Slayer."

They walked over to the elevator, ready to head back to the party, when they got a surprise. The elevator door opened to reveal Barbie and Giles, all over each other, in a total grope-fest.

"Oh, I knew you guys were doing it…but this is just a little too vivid for me," Buffy said as she stared at the couple.

"Oh, uh…hello Buffy…Spike…we're um, just…we'll be out of you way in a second…sorry to keep you waiting," Giles said, as he started to button his shirt.

"Get a room," Spike said.

"Why not have ours?" Buffy asked as she looked at Spike and smiled.

"You…uh..two have a room?" Giles asked.

"Yeah…why not…everyone's got one these days," Buffy joked, as she handed Giles her key.

"Well…thank you very much…Buffy, don't wait for me at the end of the party, I have a feeling we won't be heading home anytime soon," Giles said as he carried Barbie out of the elevator.

"Oh Rupey, you know how I like it!" Barbie yelled.

"We're out of here…now!" Buffy said as she grabbed Spike and pulled him into the elevator. The doors closed, and they immediately started kissing.

Meanwhile, in Suite 547…

"Rupey where are you going?" Barbie asked.

"Just to the fridge, to see if there's any uh, food we can bring to bed," Giles said with a wide grin.

"Mmmmm, well hurry back, I miss you, and this bed shaking feels funky," Barbie said.

Giles opened up the fridge, and was delighted with what he saw.

"Whipped cream and strawberries…the people around here sure know how to stack their fridges!" Giles announced as he grabbed a can of whipped cream and a bowl of strawberries, and carried them back to the vibrating sombrero shaped bed.
