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 Seventeen
"Oh my God." Buffy exclaimed the realization dawned on her. "He's human, he's really human..."
"Wow." Willow said "I don't know what to say."
"I think I need to sit down." Buffy said as she sat down on one of the comfy chairs in the bookstore.
"Well... So you know what was he doing in the restaurant?"
"He owns the place. I assume he's Kent's business partner."
"Wow. What are you going to do?"
"I have no idea. I think I mean I guess I'm going to have to break up with Kent."
"What? Why? Look Buffy you've pined over Spike for years not caring about anyone else. Now you've finally met a guy that actually makes you forget about Spike and you're willing to throw him away."
"I know, but I don't think I can go out with Kent knowing his relationship with Kent."
"Excuses, excuses. Admit something to me Buff, do you love Spike?"
"I-I I just don't know... maybe."
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
After what seemed like an eternity of talking to Dawn on the phone (she made him tell her all he details of what happened), Spike was making his way through downtown New York trying to find Buffy's new gallery. Along the way people were looking at him and giving him funny looks. He was still carrying Buffy's purse after all. Finally he saw the building of where it was and went to the door but it was still locked.
'Where could she have gone?' Spike thought to himself.
"Stupid ass, home...duh." Spike mumbled as he crossed the street.
Spike was so busy berating himself that he ran into someone.
"Oh sorry..." Spike said as he look at the person he bumped into.
"Spike?"
"Oz."
"Spike. How are you? Doing pretty well for yourself I see. Seeing as that your walking out and about in sunlight."
"Well that little fact is only cause I'm human now."
"Human? Cool. Except for the whole diminished strength thing and that fact that you're not immortal anymore."
"Immortality isn't such a good thing all the time. So where you headed?"
"To uh... Willow's bookstore."
"To Willow? She's here too?"
"Yeah. Small world isn't it?"
"Can I come with? I want to shock her with the fact that I'm human."
"Um... sure why not. Free country and all."
They walked the few block to the bookstore in silence. After all, despite everything it's not like they were ever really great friends. Or friends at all for that matter. It was kinda hard to be with Spike trying to kill him and all.
*cling cling*
They opened the door and stepped inside.
"Hey Will guess what? You'll never guess who I ran into." Oz said with a smile as he spotted Willow.
"What? Oh who? Spike?" Willow said as she saw him with Spike.
"Hey red." Spike greeted.
Oz walked closer and spotted Buffy :"Oh hey Buffy. Didn't see you there with the bookshelves covering you and all."
When Buffy heard Oz, she knew she was found out. She was trying to sneak out or at least hide. 'Damn Oz! I think I liked it better when he talked less.'
"Hey Oz." She greeted as she stepped away from the bookshelf and saw him and Spike. Before they came, She and Willow were busy talking about Spike and whether or not she still loved him. Yet the only thing Buffy admitted so far was that she had FEELINGS for him and feelings don't necessarily equate to love. Willow though could see what Buffy couldn't admit which was that Buffy did love him. Willow could see it whenever Buffy spoke about him.
"Oz! Let's go to the storeroom and you can help me with inventory." Willow said as she took Oz by the arm and dragged him to the storeroom. 'No time like the present for Buffy to find out.' Willow thought.
"But what about your store? Plus is it good to leave the two of them alone. I mean Buffy may no longer be the slayer but I guess she's still got some skills and hey she doesn't know Spike's human." Oz said as they reached the storeroom.
"She'll figure it out." Willow said, not referring to the part about Spike being human but about Buffy's feelings since she already knew she was.
"I hope she does."
A/N: I promise that the next one will be a long one.
