Proof

Summary: It's 7 years after Season 6. Buffy's no longer the slayer and Spike has never come back. Sorry not so good with summaries.

Author Notes: It would be great if you could feedback me. It's my very first fanfic so please be nice and thank you to those who have given me feedback. They give me the motivation to continue my story. Sorry about the conversation parts, I'm not so good with that yet. I tried my best though to make this chapter a little longer.

Disclaimer: I own nothing except maybe a few original characters but they're pretty easy to spot.

Chapter Eight

A million thoughts at once are going through Spike's head, but the one that clearly stands out is. "Oh shit! She's here."

"Well? Don't you want to see her?" Dawn asked

"Um. I don't think that's best bit. I think I'm just going to head out."

"But I'm sure Buffy would want to see you. I don't know what's taking her so long in the bathroom but I can call her for you." Dawn offered.

"I don't think so bit. I should really go anyway. Promise me that you won't tell her that we met?"

"Why?"

"Just promise?"

"Okay, I promise."

"Good. Thank you nibblet. It was nice to see you again. Anyway I really have to go, food's getting cold and all. Bye."

"Bye."

Dawn watched Spike walk out into the night and at that moment Buffy and Willow came back.

"Sorry we took so long Dawnie, it's just that there were so many people and I didn't want to line up again after if we decided to come back and wait. Are you okay?" Buffy asked noticing the farwawy look in Dawn's eyes.

"Huh? Yeah I'm fine why wouldn't I be?"

"I don't know it just seemed like your mind was elsewhere." Willow said.

"I'm fine, just a bit tired I guess, it getting late and all."

"Well we can go now if you want let me just pay the bill." Buffy said.

"Okay."

After Buffy paid the bill, they left.

On the street willow said her goodbyes and left to go home and Buffy and Willow headed home as well. Suddenly Buffy's slayer senses were tingling. Buffy stopped walking and Dawn asked her :"What's wrong why did you stop?"

"There's a vampire."

"Where?"

Buffy scanned the street once again but she couldn't see anyone.

"I guess I was wrong. There doesn't seem to be anyone. I must be really tired as well. Let's just go home."

And so they started again to head home. Once they were out of sight, Spike stepped out of the shadows and he thought to himself: 'Just as I thought, still as beautiful as ever.'
