Chapter 5
As soon as Buffy left, Spike raced to the phone. Buffy had to divorce the wanker and if it were up to her she would never do it. Spike hit redial and hoped for the best.
"Hello Angel investigations, We help the helpless, how can we help you" came a female voice.
"Yeah I need to speak to Angel"
"I am sorry Angel is busy right now cant I help you?"
"No I need to speak to Angel now" Spike growled "Its about Buffy"
"Oh alright" Cordelia grumbled "I'll get him for you"
Spike then heard the muffled voice yell "Angel there's some rude English guy on the phone he wants to talk to you, its about Buffy"
Spike grimaced as he heard the unmistakable voice of his grandsire. "Cordelia you know he can hear you right"
"So I am sure he knows hes rude"
Spike smiled this girl had some stones if she was willing to stand up to Angel.
"What's this about Buffy" Angel growled into the phone.
"Now now Angelus, is that anyway to treat your grandchilde"
"What do you want Spike?"
"Oh what's wrong, wake up on the wrong side of the bed this morning"
"I don't have time for this crap Spike what about Buffy"
Spike smiled he loved pissing him off. "I thought I would let you know that Buffy is staying with me"
"Ha ha Spike very funny, I might have actually believed that if Buffy hadn't called me ten minutes ago"
"Check your caller I.D thingy, where do you think she called from"
Angel looked down at the phone and realized Spike was right "What have you done to her she said she was alright"
"I didn't do nothing" Spike yelled into the phone "I saved her from that wanker and she is ALRIGHT here with me"
"Alright, alright then, so shes ok then"
"Well yeah physically, she will be ok, but Riley has really mucked her up"
"What did that bastard do to her"
"Well what did the Slayer tell you" Spike didn't want to reveal some thing he shouldn't. He figured Buffy told him about it out of necessity and he didn't want to betray her confidence.
"She told me that they argued all the time but I got the feeling that there was something else"
Spike sighed "Yeah I am guessing they were always fighting, that's stupid pratt, he hit her" he blurted out in anger
"What" Angel yelled
Spike mentally hit himself, maybe telling him wasn't a good idea. "He umm hit her that's why she is with me, I decked him then took her to my place, got a headache for my troubles too but it was worth it. Shes really messed up"
"How is she dealing with it"
"Yeah shes ok, the poor thing, a couple of hours away from captain cardboard has really done her good"
"Why how was she acting"
"She was really scared, and not of me, it was him. I think she felt comforted by a familiar face"
"Even if it is yours" Angel smirked.
"Yes even mine" spike sighed. "She looked like she was going crazy, kinda reminded me of Dru for awhile. She just kept rambling, he is my husband he has the right to do what he wants"
"Is she still like that, she seemed alright on the phone"
"Nah I think I have convinced her that shes Buffy Summers, not Rileys wife, its like she was brain washed, but I think there may be more to it"
"Well as long as shes ok, umm thank you for letting me know I guess"
"Hey hold on that's not why I called, you know some pretty powerful lawyers right"
"Yeah why"
"Well she is going to get that divorce but she says she has already tried. Riley must have some connections, but I figured you would have some better ones"
"Yeah I think I can organize something, they owe me a favour"
"Good I think it would be an idea to get one of those thingys were he cant come near her"
"Yeah I can organize all that"
"Good I want every thing done, I don't want her to have to see him again ok , any expenses take it out of my account"
"Your account" Angel stuttered. What was Spike thinking.
"Yeah, what of it"
"Umm why, Spike you realise Buffy is the slayer right, she tried to kill you, you tried to kill her"
"I owe her mother"
"But her mothers dead Spike"
"Yeah but she looked after me, she listened to me gave me chocolate, she invited me in even after she knew what I was"
"Yeah she did always like you better"
"Yeah well can you blame her. Look if she knew that I let her daughter get hurt she would come back from heaven and hit me over the head with another bloody axe"
"And that's the reason"
"Of course it is why else would I be helping her out"
"I don't know that's what I am trying to figure out. Look I can organise it in a couple of days, Spike can I come and see her"
Spike grumbled that's all he needed was that bloody poof swooning over Buffy.
"Alright but bring all that stuff with you"
"Ok not tomorrow night the night after I should be able to get everything then"
"Yeah yeah, look I gotta get off the phone, do you want me to tell her your coming"
"Nah I want to surprise her"
"Ok well see you then"
Spike put then phone down banged his hand down on the table. What had he done, Angel would come down and coddle Buffy making her believe that she is week. He just hoped that she wouldn't get to angry at him.
