Author's Note: Thank you, to those of you that reviewed. Reviews encourage me to write more. Please review if you have a question, comment, or idea about my story, I'll try to answer questions in the author's note. By the way, I may not be following the events on "Angel" correctly. It's hard because 'Apocalypse Now-ish' isn't on until tonight. Thanks for reading! Only Spuffy, don't worry, there will be ABSOLUTELY NO BUFFY/ANGEL, except for a little bit of friendship.

Chapter 2: What Has He Done?
Buffy picked the phone up off of the receiver, then, she put it back down. 'Should I call him? He was a vampire who got his soul back. How would I explain about Spike, especially since they don't get along and I don't know the specifics of how Spike got his soul back. Damn, this is gonna be hard.'
She picked the phone up again, and dialed. After it rang twice, she was going to change her mind and hang up, when someone answered.
"Um, hello this is Angel Investigations. We help the helpless."
"Is Angel there?"
"Depends. Who is this?"
"This is Buffy, I'm sort of a friend of his." 'And his grandchilde' she thought.
"Oh! Aren't you that girl who died and came back?!"
"Yeah... who're you?"
"My name is Fred, Winifred actually. I'll go get Angel, he'll probably want to talk to you."
Buffy could hear a few other people in the background, and was waiting impatiently for him to come to the phone.
"Buffy?"
"Hey, Angel. Are you busy right now?"
"No more than usual since Cordy came back. Why?"
'God, how do I say this to him.' "Spike...."
Now she had his full attention, "What about Spike?" She could hear the anger in his voice.
'Shit! I forgot to tell Angel about Spike when we talked after I came back. And now I'm not sure if his chip still works.' "He's been in town for awhile, and-"
He cut her off, "How long? Has he hurt you?" The anger was rising in him and was about to explode.
"Spike has been in Sunnydale for a little over three years," she said, ashamed that she hadn't told him. Buffy knew they weren't in love anymore, but he was still a friend.
"Why haven't you staked him?! Why didn't you tell me?"
In the background she could hear someone ask, "Why haven't they staked who?"
"He was sort of my friend last year." 'My lover, too. I shouldn't think about that right now, he might have killed people. Of course, maybe his soul had a happiness clause... no, don't think about that, he loves me.'
"Why didn't you stake him before then?"
"He had a government chip in his head!"
"What?!"
"He couldn't hurt humans."
"Wait. You're using the past tense. Does the chip still work? Did it get removed?"
"I don't know, that's part of why I called."
"Can he hit you?"
"Yeah, but-"
"That means the chip doesn't work and you should stake him."
"There's more to it than that. Spike has been able to hit me since I came back."
"He's dangerous, stake him."
Tears started welling up in her eyes. "My William got something else, too."
"What did he get?.... Wait! You just called him YOUR WILLIAM! What the hell is going on, Buffy?!"
She was crying now. "He pulled an Angel on us."
"What do you mean? That doesn't answer my questions!"
Buffy decided to just shock him by just blurting a couple of things out. "I slept with him before he got a soul!" she said quickly.
There was dead silence. Angel was stunned. "Wha? I must not be hearing right, I thought you just said...."
"I did."
"You're kidding, right? Right?"
"No, I wouldn't joke about that."
"It was only one lapse of judgment, right?"
"No.... It happened a lot. But, the main issue is the soul."
"YOU SLEPT WITH SPIKE! MORE THAN ONCE?!"
"Yeah, but the soul...."
"What soul? What are you talking about?"
"What do you remember about The First?"
"The first what?"
"Evil."

Spike used the spare key he had to go bach into Xander's apartment. 'Killing isn't as fun as it used to be. Buffy will never forgive me.'
