-Previously on Bleeding from the Soul-

"Where are we," Buffy looks at Spike over her shoulder.

"Heartland, it's said to be a.haven," Spike glances at her out of the corner of his eye.

"He your husband?" the cab driver talks to Buffy watching Spike look out the cab window through the rear view mirror.

"Spike, Oh no," Buffy explains, and hears a small cough from Spike as he continues to stare at the road as it passes.

"What do you miss most about being human?" Buffy turns her head to the right and looks at Spike leaning against his back.

"Fresh air in my lungs, until." Spike trailed off.

"Until," Buffy urged him.

Spike turned to face Buffy, and she did the same.

"Until I met you," He smiled up at her and quickly and softly kissed her on the cheek.

Spike looked in Buffy's eyes a few inches away from her face, awaiting her fists of wrath. Buffy just looked at him, wide eyed, and reached her hand out pulling him in for a deep kiss.

Spike pulled back a seconds later looking at her in shock. Was he ready to just pick up like nothing happened? Until out of no where a man looking just like Spike was crouched down next to him, only he was all out in Spike's normal clothes and Spike was in a blue sweater and black jeans.

"Who the hell do you think you are, you think a little fluff a few words and a kiss on the cheek everything is all ok? No your not worthy of a catch like her, don't you remember what you did to her,"

He looked back at Buffy nodding his head in remembrance and tears pricking the corner of his eyes. "I'm sorry," he whispered and tried to lash his hands back, but Buffy held a firm grip. He looked at their hands, then back up at her. Tears filled Buffy's eyes as she watched her companion, her friend she dare say love. "Please, I'm not allowed," he tugged and tugged, but Buffy just held on with the same strength.

"No," She turned his hands over and rubbed the palms of his palms soothingly with her thumbs, "it's alright, were not it the same place and we get a chance to start over, nothing matters anymore," she looked at him trying to calm him down.

"No.No, I hurt the girl.hurt you, and I can't, am not allowed to." he trailed off. He looked to his right at a man that looked so similar to him, but there was something different about him, oh yeah, he was screaming at him. Spike rolled back on his heels and held his ears. "Stop yelling please," he chanted.

"Spike! Snap out of it," Buffy put her hand over Spike's and kissed his forehead.

"Look, I'm still here! I'm not going anywhere, I don't care what you did, this is here and now, so what ever it is that is bothering you tell it to leave or I'll kick it's a**." She hoped to coax a smiled from him.

And he did, a rare smile that she rarely saw cross his face, tugged at his lips.

"So, you ok now?" She took his hand in hers and looked hopefully.

"No, but.I will be," he forced a smiled.
