Chapter seven: "Father and Friend"
Spike woke up with a start and headed toward Buffy.
"Angel!" Buffy screamed and hugged him so tight he gasped for air not knowing he didn't need any.
"Buffy- Spike. Spike?"
" 'Ello mate."
"Angel I have to tell you something." Buffy brought him to the couch and Spike followed.
"Spike?" Buffy pleaded, "Can I talk to Angel for awhile.alone?" Spike nodded but hated leaving her alone with HIM. Spike left and opened the door to see Giles waiting at the door, "Da'!!!" Spike screamed. Giles really wasn't Spike's dad but if he had a son he would be exactly like him.
"Spike! Oh I've missed you so much!" He grabbed him in a hug.
"Buffy's in there talking to poof.you can join them but I was just on my way out. I'll be back in an hour or so though." Giles nodded and headed toward the living room.
"Buffy-" Giles let out a whisper.
"Giles!! Oh my god! It's really you! I haven't seen you in so long Dad!!!" Buffy too like Spike was not truly Giles' child but much like one.
"Buffy, Angel, You two look so different." He hugged them both although particularly he disliked Angel.
"I was just telling Angel here something about me that I should be telling you too."
"All right then, carry on." Giles said cleaning off his glasses and placing them back on the bridge of his nose.
"It's about Spike. Spike and me. We're together. I love him and he loves me. And you too look like you are going to die." She looked up at Angel's face which was so white, whiter than it was before if that was even possible. She looked up at Giles who was so happy and delighted. He hugged her and congratulated her.
"Buffy I am so happy for you!!!"
"Thanks Giles!!! It means a lot." Giles quickly stepped out the room and left Angel and Buffy to sort out what was bothering him.
"Angel I know this is a lot but-"
"Buffy, it's your life. I have no say. I-I just want you to be happy." He put his head down and looked at the carpet.
"Hey, Angel, look at me." He didn't move his head. "Hey! Hello!! Anyone there.Angel please look at me." She was practically sobbing now. Angel looked up.
"I have to go. Good luck." He walked out leaving her in the living room sobbing, good thing Giles was there to comfort her other wise she didn't know what she would have done. She just sobbed there on his shoulder and she didn't even realize when Spike came in and saw her crying and slipped back out the door to find the wanker.
