What I want By Natalie Elizabeth

Chapter 14

Spike nervously twitched in his seat on the plane. It had just set down and Spike was eager to get out of there. It wasn't that he didn't like flying, he did, it's just he wanted to get Buffy back. As soon as he was able, Spike was out of his seat and running off the plane, receiving looks from the flight attendants and other passengers. Spike was off the plane in a matter of minutes and was now scanning the crowd looking for Drusilla. He had no idea what she looked like but she said she would find him. Spike continued to look through the crowd and smiled when he saw someone holding a card with Spike on it. Spike ran up to the unusual looking girl.

"Hey are you Drusilla," he asked out of breath.

The brunette looked the man up and down and smiled. "Wow Elizabeth was right"

"Excuse Me," he asked.

"Nothing" she said grabbing his arm. "So do you have any luggage?" she asked.

"It's not a vacation I won't be staying long, just got this," he said holding up a very worn black bag.

"Well ok" she said pulling him towards the exit.

"So you're Dru huh"

"Yep and your Spike"

"Right so where's Angel" he asked.

"Oh he said he would meet us at Elizabeths'. He's going to check it out first"

Spike nodded then followed Drusilla in the direction of a beat up ford.

"Sorry my cars a little old," Dru said stopping in front of a convertible parked across three car parks.

Spike looked at the old ford then at the car Dru was getting in.

"This is old?" he asked in shock.

"Yeah you should see Buffy's"

Spike shook his head and got in the car. "I don't think I want to"

Dru started the car and tore down the road.

"So" Drusilla asked swerving through traffic. "You're going to rescue Elizabeth huh"

Spike nodded.

"Why?"

Spike looked at her shocked. "Cause she's my friend and I want to help her. I don't want her to marry that wanker"

Drusilla's eyes widened. "Oh my god. Heavens above. I do believe, our Spikey's in love"

Spike rubbed his eyes. "Am I that bloody obvious"

Drusilla nodded.

"Well you tell Buffy that. I thought I might have been able to start something with her, and then she goes and calls me her best friend. I have had to use that line on her just so I can spend time with her"

Drusilla's phone began to ring. "Will you get that for me, I don't like talking on the phone while I am driving"

Spike hurriedly picked up the phone. The girl was a bad driver with two hands he didn't trust her with one.

"Ello"

"Who is this and where's my sister"

"Calm down mate she's driving next to me mate, now who is this"

"Its Angel, are you Spike?"

"Yeah"

"Good. Look I am at Elizabeth's house"

"Is she alright?" Spike asked.

"I can't be sure. She has a bandage on her head and she is in her room lying down. How far away are yous?"

Spike turned to Drusilla. "How far away are we?"

"About ten minutes away. Tell him I jut past the house that looks like a jungle"

Spike looked at the girl strangely. "She's says ten minutes. Something about a jungle house"

Angel laughed. "I would hold on if I were you"

"Why?" Spike asked curiously.

"Cause that isn't ten minutes away and it's starting to rain here"

Spike looked up and saw the darkened clouds. It was only 4 o'clock but it looked later.

"Alright be there in a few"

Spike hung up the phone and quickly held on to the side of the door.

Ten minutes later a very scared pale and wet Spike fell out of Drusillas car. He then looked up at the house or rather mansion in front of him. "I thought you were taking me to Buffy house," he asked.

"This is Elizabeth's house" came a male voice.

Spike looked up and saw a large dark haired man holding out his hand to him. Spike reluctantly took the hand and was pulled off the muddy ground and pulled under the cover of a tree.

"I'm Angel by the way""

"Spike, so where is Buffy"

"Third window along on the second one up"

"Right lets go" Spike said walking towards the house.

Angel and Dru followed Spike closely. Spike looked at the side off the house and saw a drainpipe. Walking over, Spike assed the drainpipe. It seemed strong enough. Spike put one foot on the pipe and hoisted himself up.

"What are you doing" Angel asked.

"Getting Buffy" Spike said, "How did you see her?"

"From the tree" Angel replied.

Spike turned his head slightly and looked at the tree; there was no way he would be able to get Buffy out that way.

"At least take off that jacket," Dru suggested.

Spike shook his head. "Not on your life. Get back to the car before anyone sees you, I'll get Buffy"

"Yeah cause a guy all in black climbing a pipe isn't going to attract attention," Angel said running back to his car with Dru. Spike carefully scaled the pipe trying not to slip as the water ran over his hands. Spike got to the window Angel had said was Buffys and pecked in. Spike's heart clenched in his chest. Buffy was curled up on her bed, in the fetal position with a white bandage on her head. Spike knocked on her window.

"Buffy"

"Go away I told you I don't want to eat anything"

Spike shook his head. "How many people here call you Buffy and offer you food from the window pet"

Buffy rolled over and looked at the window.

"Spike" she exclaimed running to the window. Buffy opened the window and pulled Spike threw.

"What are you doing here?" she asked.

"I came to save you from this terrible place," he said looking around her room. "And maybe I think I should have called first"

Buffy laughed. "You came to rescues me," she asked.

"Well yeah, I mean you are my best friend"

Buffy ignored Spike best friend line and threw herself in to his arms, placing hard kiss on his lips.

"Thank you "she said pulling away and looking at him. Spike had a shocked look on his face.

"Umm ok" he said shaking himself out of his stupor "Umm yeah I umm came to take you back to Sunnydale. That is if you want come"

"Of course I want to come I hate it here"

"Yeah I can see why" Spike said eyeing her room, which was more than double his was.

"How are we leaving" Buffy asked.

"Same way I came, the drain pipe". Why didn't you try escape that way, it's not like they bolted the windows"

Buffy shrugged. I didn't see the point I mean there my parents they will find a way to get me back."

"So why are you leaving with me?" Spike asked

"Because I realize I do have something to live for in Sunnydale"

"And what's that?" Spike asked hopefully.

"My true family. You, Giles, Joyce, and Dawn and my true friends. Oh my god is Dawn ok I was supposed to get her some stuff from the chemist"

"She's fine," Spike said reassuring her. "She's worried about you"

"Well lets stop her worrying" Buffy said heading towards the window.

"Wait luv don't you want to take anything."

Buffy shook her head. "Nope this is my old life. I don't want it anymore"

Spike nodded then took off his jacket. "Here put this on, keep you warm and dry"

Buffy nodded and took the jacket. Spike moved in front of the window and climbed out.

"Be careful luv" he said looking up at Buffy. "Just let me get to the ground first before you climb out. I want to be able to catch you if you fall."

"Gee thanks for the vote of confidence Spike"

Spike climbed down safely to the ground. Buffy started climbing down the pipe carefully; she now knew why she didn't leave this way, when she first left.

"You all right luv" Spike asked holding up his arms waiting for her to get low enough for him to pull her down.

"Yep" she said feeling Spike's hands on her hips.

Spike pulled Buffy off the pipe and placed her on the ground.

"Come on" he said grabbing her hand and running for Angel's car.

"Hey you there, what are you doing"?

"Shit" Buffy said as she saw Ethan, the gardener, chasing them with a rake.

"Start the car" Spike yelled at Angel.

"Leave" Angel told Drusilla.

Drusilla and Angel started their cars. Drusilla drove away while Angel slowly started edging his car towards the road. Buffy jumped into Angel car and Spike dived in after her.

"Go" Spike yelled.

Angel hit the accelerator and sped out of the driveway. Spike realized that he was lying on Buffy and quickly tried to get off her.

"Thanks" Buffy said a little embarrassed.

"Um yeah" Spike said then saw Angel glaring at him in the rear vision mirror.

Spike sighed. What was that's guy's problem?
