AN: OK First things, first is anyone afraid of flashlights? if so please hit yourself on the head, spin around in circles and seek mental help...
Sorry for the brief moment of insanity due to a two hour long phone call with my best friend here's chapter sixteen...
The floppy eared demon smiled as he saw his old friend.
Clem: Sorry, Spike... I didn't see you there
He looked at Clem strangely, he had no idea who the demon was but he felt no dangerous vibes from him.
Spike: Who are you?
Clem looked a little taken back, he looked at Spike, his eyes worried.
Clem: It's me Clem, your kitten poker buddy, remember?
Spike shook his head confused.
Spike: Kitten poker?
Clem: Never mind that, your Spike, a vampire you live at the cemetery right down the street and you love Buffy
Spike: (eyes widen) Vampire?
That's when Clem noticed Spike's chest rising and falling
Clem: Ok scratch that you're human
Spike: Who's Buffy?
Clem: The person I am taking you too right now... Come on

Willow was in her room studying when Tara appeared before her, Willow jumped but then smiled at the spirit.
Willow: Tara, you scared me
Tara: (smiles) Sorry, I just came to tell you that he's here and he doesn't know anything and just help him find happiness with Buffy please
Willow: He made his choice? Wow he risked everything just to be with Buffy
Tara: Yeah, just make sure he can find his place with Buffy, I don't know where he is right now but... (trails off)
Willow: Don't worry Tara, I'll make sure everything turns out ok
Tara smiled and disappeared.

Buffy walked back home, tears still rolling down her face, she knew it was the vampire, but just the sight of Spike made her forget everything, god how she missed him, she wiped her tears away not noticing the floppy eared demon and the white haired ex-vampire across the street.
Buffy: (to herself) God I just wish he would come back to me.
Then she heard someone calling her name from the other side of the street.
Clem: Buffy! Hey Buffy!
Buffy turned to the floppy eared demon, he was walking next to... Spike. Buffy's heart must have stopped for a second when she saw her lover.
Buffy: Oh god Spike
She wrapped her arms around the man she wouldn't allow herself to admit her love, he didn't return her hug and Buffy noticed a weird feeling she had never felt with Spike before... warmth.
Spike: Are you Buffy?
Buffy looked at Spike tears running down her face, she didn't understand, why didn't he know her. She looked to Clem for answers, he shook his head.
Clem: He didn't know anything when I found him, are you going to take him home with you?
Buffy nodded and looked back at the man who didn't know her.
Buffy: Your going to come home with me, I live with Willow, Dawn and Giles, do you remember them?
Spike shook his head, and looked into Buffy's eyes they were so warm, kind and full of love, Spike fell in love with her right that second.
They said their goodbyes to Clem and started towards Buffy's house.

Xander watched Anya as she flipped through channels on the TV, he had all of these feelings he couldn't describe, he was going to be a father. Something he hadn't really thought about but he was happy he was with Anya.
Anya: (turns off TV) What?
Xander: Huh?
Anya: You were staring at me, now explain yourself
Xander: Oh sorry, just admiring how beautiful you are
Anya smiled and laid her head on his shoulder.
Anya: Oh Xander...
Xander: I have something to ask you Anya and you don't have to answer me now...
Anya: (looks at him suspiciously) What is it Xander?
Xander smiled and hoped he wouldn't get slapped in the face again. He got down on one knee and looked up at her, engagement ring in hand. Anya gasped then smacked him. Xander looked at her smile gone from his face, he held the ring out to her.
Xander: I know I'm ready this time and I promised you, so Anya will you marry me?
Anya looked at him and he noticed tears in her eyes, Xander looked at her, his eyes pleading.
Anya: I will marry you Xander Harris and if I have to put a leash on you I will.
Xander grinned and embraced the woman he loved.

Willow waited outside for Buffy to come home, she was going to tell her about Spike then they both could go out and look for him, Willow wasn't expecting Buffy to find him first. She gasped when she saw Buffy walk up to the house, Spike by her side, her face was tear-stained.
Buffy: (to Spike when she sees Willow) That's Willow
Spike nodded and Buffy looked up to see her shocked friend.
Buffy: (to Willow) Clem found him... He doesn't remember anything
Willow looked at her friend sympathetically and the three of them walked into the house.
Giles: (looking at Book) Good Buffy your back did you... (looks up and drops book) Good lord
Spike: Your Giles right? (looks at Buffy who nods)
Giles looked at his sadden slayer who just shrugged. Giles gestured to Buffy to go in the other room while Willow and Spike sat in the living amongst some of Giles' books.
Giles: (in Kitchen with Buffy) What happened Buffy? You said he killed himself
Buffy: He did... I don't know what happened, Clem said he just found him and he
didn't remember anything... his name, where he was... me.
Giles: Buffy, there must be some explanation for this, I have no idea how a vampire could be resurrected
Buffy: (looks at Giles her eyes wide) That's the thing Giles, he not a Vampire.
AN: Sorry for the shortness, the next chapter should be longer hopefully, then next Chapter Buffy meets up with Uther once again Spike at her side.
