The End and Beginning
Chp19
" Well, Spikey baby, you are a walking anomaly. First of all I want to tell you. The thing I saw most was the love that you have for your little Slayer here. Even Angel didn't have that much love for her. It radiates off of your aura like a bright light. I don't think I've ever that much love for something or in your case someone, come off of anyone I've ever read."
"Yeah, Mate I know I love the girl, hell I've loved her so long I can't remember not ever loving her. She's my reason for everything. Everything I've done or said is for her." Spike says sincerely, meaning every word.
Lorne smiles seeing the truth behind his words, he says, "I can see that. Now I'll answer your question. The answer is yes."
"What, am I a human or a vampire? I don't like cryptic, Mate." Spike growls.
"Yes to both, it seems that for obvious reasons that you're human, but from what I got off of your reading you're also a vampire. Actually, a human with vampiric abilities. I don't know what abilities you have, but you have retained them. Also, it seems that you have human abilities, too. You will have to find which abilities you do have on your own though, the reading only told me you had them, not exactly what ones you have retained.
"Oh, this should be interesting." Giles sees research in the near future.
Buffy says "Oh, sparring match later." Looking hopefully up at Spike and squeezing his hand lightly.
He looks down at her and says, " If that's what you want to do, Pet. Maybe we can find out about the stamina too, later." Looking at her and smirking.
"I meant later as in tomorrow, it's a little late tonight for sparring tonight." She says.
"Alright, Luv, but we can still try out the stamina, right?"
"Oh, yeah, the stamina will be tried out tonight." She smiles "I'm suddenly feeling very tired. A bed sounds really inviting, right about now."
"I hear you, Pet." Spike says winking at her.
She giggles and the rest of the group collectively groans.
Giles wants to research this phenomena they call Spike.
"I believe that it would be good to find out what capabilities you have, Spike. I suppose that you and Buffy could have a sparring match, and we could see how good your reflexes and stamina and whatever else we can think of are. We already know that you have retained the hearing of a vampire, so we'll concentrate on the other vampiric abilities. He has totally missed the whole conversation between Buffy and Spike and the innuendo that Spike gave her.
"Watcher, I've just found out that I'm human, or somewhat there of, anyway. It's been one hell'uva day for me and I just want to go lie down and rest for a while. We can do all of this tomorrow." Spike rants grabbing hold of Buffy, which is standing beside him.
"Yes, yes of course, a bed does sound quite nice. We'll try and figure all of this out tomorrow, then." Giles agrees.
"Sounds like a plan, Rupert." Spike says.
"Will you come back and sing for us again?" Lorne asks Spike as they all turn to leave.
"Maybe, Mate, Maybe." He says over his shoulder, while wrapping his arm around Buffy.
Buffy looks up at him. " Would you sing for me again?" she asks innocently, with a hopeful look on her face.
"Depends, Luv. Will you sing for me?"
"That depends on what kinda singing you mean, baby." She says smirking up at him.
"Luv, I can make you sing like that, any bloody time." He smirks back down at her. "From what I heard the last time, you have a beautiful voice, and I'd like to hear it again."
She blushes at the compliment, because she thinks she sounds like a dying dog when she sings. She then has a thought, "Okay, I'll make you a deal. We sing together, but I get to pick the song."
"As long as it's not one of those Nancy, boy band songs, Dawn like so bloody much, Pet. Then it's just fine with me."'
"I promise it will NOT be anything like that. They get on my nerves, too. After all of the teen girls in the house and having to constantly listen to it. I never want to hear another boy band in my life."
"That's good to know, Luv. Then we're set anything not a boy band, and I'm happy."
'Can we go to the hotel now? We are done here, I soo bloody hope?"
"I think we are, and a warm and cozy bed sounds oh so nice, right about now." She says as they get to the door.
They walk out of the lounge. Everyone else behind them agreeing with her.
"Oh a real bed, liking that." Willow says.
"Yeah, Wills, I hear ya." Xander says tiredly.
