It's a definite Maybe
He glanced at her bathed in the moonlight. "What do you want spike?" Buffy snapped at him shaking him out of his stupor. He stared up at the stars accenting his cheekbones a little. "Pet, can I ask you something?" he walked up to her curling his fingers at her waist. "Spike please I-" she stopped abruptly before she was attacked with heart wrenching sobs. "Shhh, its ok Luv cry it all out" he held her tightly as he spoke soft soothing words to her. "Spike?" she said softly as her cries faded away. "Yes Luv?" he still held on to her because he was afraid if he let go she would run away again. "Since I know what you are going to ask I'm going to answer it now, it is a definite maybe" she looked up at him his eyes filling with tears. "I mean I can't love you because you're a vampire and I am the slayer" now her eyes were brimming with tears and they were threatening to spill. "Luv you don't get it. The man amd the demon love you, and even if I could you know I would never hurt you. So tell me Pet tell me what you feel," he brushed a thumb over her cheek to wipe away the lone tear rolling down her face. "spike I think I, I think I " she stopped and looked deep into his eyes finally trusting him with her heart. She smiled up at him and said "I think I just fell in love with you." He was frozen for a moment before he spun her around making her laugh harder than she had in so many years, and at that moment in time they knew that they loved somebody and that person loved them back.
