*In the car on the way to the airport*
"So how was it?" Willow was very anxious to know what Buffy was feeling. She had waited for so long to tell Spike how she felt, now that she had, Willow wanted to know everything.
"Amazing! It was better than I ever imagined."
"That good huh?"
"You have no idea. I am so happy he is back. I mean I know we were planning on bringing him back, but I had my serious doubts that it wasn't going to work. I was just holding on to that little bit of hope, then bam! He's back. I get my second chance to fix everything."
"Well I think you two are finally going to work out. It's about damn time. I always knew you had a thing for him. The way you fight together, everything is in perfect sync. Like you were meant to be together."
"You really knew the entire time?"
"All of us did. Well I had to point it out to Xander, of course he didn't believe it, but after a while he finally started to see it. Hey we're here." They arrived at the Sunnydale Airport. They went to the terminal Giles was at and waited for him to get off the plane.
"I wonder where he is! He is so gunna freak when he sees Spike's back." Buffy didn't see Giles come up behind her.
"Who's back?"
"Oh, Giles, hey. I'm glad you are back. I still wish you hadn't of left." Buffy went over to him and gave him a hug. Willow did the same.
"You know I had to leave. It was for the best. So who is it that is back?" Giles had left a couple of weeks ago. He felt he was holding Buffy back. He went back to England, but still planned to visit, to make sure there were no major problems.
"Oh about that! Ummm, you will just have to wait. We are going to breakfast and you will be meeting him there." Willow couldn't help but grin. She wanted to tell him Spike was back, but they wanted it to be a surprise.
"Him? Him who?"
"You are just going to have to wait and see. Come on lets go."
"Fine. It's nice to be back."
"It's nice to have you back. Things will get back to normal now." Buffy linked arms with Willow and the three Scoobies walked out of the terminal and headed for the restaurant.
*At the restaurant*
"So Spiky are you glad you're back?" Xander had met Spike and Dawn at the restaurant, along with Tara and Anya.
"Of course I am happy to be back. Why would I be? I get to see the women I love again and be alive. Who could ask for more?" Spike glanced over at Dawn. She was like his little sister and he missed her too while he was gone.
"Well maybe this time around you and I can try to be friends."
"I like that idea. Sure lets be friends." Spike and Xander shook hands, while the Tara, Anya, and Dawn looked at each other. They were amazed at the way the guys were handling themselves.
"How long does it take to go to the airport? When are they going to get here?" Dawn thought they would be here already. 'It's a bloody miracle' she thought as Buffy and Willow came through the door. 'Oh god I am even starting to talk like Spike. Ha-ha.' Buffy and Willow came over to the table and sat down.
"Where's Giles?" Anya was anxious to see him. She wanted to show him all she had done with the Magic Box.
"He's parking the car. He is going to freak when he sees you," said Buffy pointing to Spike.
"That he will." Spike motioned over to the door. Giles had just walked in. Xander waved for him to come over. Apparently he still hadn't seen Spike. Once he reached about half way to the table he saw him. Giles stopped dead in his tracks. Buffy and the Scoobies all looked at him with amusement. Giles finished walking over to the table and sat down.
"Whoa. What the hell is going on here? Spike why are you back? Buffy you didn't do that resurrection spell did you? How could you be so stupid? Something could have gone terribly wrong."
"Hold on a second Rupe's. She did no such thing. I was sent back to stop some apocalypse."
"Really? Sorry Buffy, I shouldn't have presumed."
"Don't worry about it."
"What happened? Why were you sent back? Can't Buffy stop it?"
"I don't exactly. I was given a choice to go to heaven or to come back and stop this thing. I chose to come back."
"You get to go to heaven?"
"OK how about I just tell you everything I know, and then we can go from there. First let's get something to eat."
"Alright." Everyone was starved. After they were finished eating Spike told Giles all about his time in Limbo and seeing Joyce.
"How about we go to the Magic Box and do some research on this new evil."
"Yes, let's go to the Magic Box. I want to show you all I have done with the place." Anya was very excited.
"Sounds good Rupe's. Let's get going." Spike was the first to get up and walk out. He really didn't want to be the one to pay for the food. They all went out to their cars and drove to the Magic Box.
