"SPIKE!" Dawn said and rushed and gave him a hug. From the look on his face
it looked like she had knocked the breath out of him. That is to say if he
had any. He awkwardly hugged her back.
"Hey there little bit." He said and looked at them. She finally let go
"Oh my god I mean your really here." Dawn said to him
"Oh course I am" He said it in a sincere fashion not sarcastically as before. Willow went over and hugged him to. That was a surprise to him. But he hugged her back.
"I'm glad your back. And don't worry we'll find out why you're here. Giles and I brought books." She said happily
"Well you'd better because I for one want to knew why Spike is here when he is supposed to be a pile of dust." Cordelia said
"Way to help Cordy." Fred said
"Yeah, I have to admit I'm happy to see you to. You know with the whole saving the world thing. " Xander said
"Glad to be of service."
"I must agree with Xander, welcome back" Giles said
"Ohh wow praises form the watcher, now I have everything." Spike said
"Not everything." Xander said
"We got this for you." Dawn said. She took out a bag and in it was a leather coat. It was exactly like the one he had.
"Yes, well we had Willow use some magic to fix it up." Giles said
Spike looked shocked and grateful. No one had ever done anything for him. Not like this anyways. He couldn't even remember the last time he had gotten a present. He picked it up and put it on. It was exactly the way he should look.
"Thank you." He said to them. And you could tell in his eyes he meant it.
"You deserve it." Giles said. It had been Xander's idea surprisingly
All this time Buffy was in the back. She had seen him and it had just hit her. He was really back. She didn't know what to do. She just stayed there. When he put the jacket on, it was exactly just like nothing had happened.
Willow looked over at Buffy.
"So Angel wow this is a great place, why don't you show us around." Willow said
Angel was looking at Buffy the whole time. He had seen her reaction to Spike.
"What oh umm Fred can show you." Angel said
Willow looked at Fred
"I can but you know this place so much better than me" Fred said taking the hint.
Xander also took the hint.
"Yeah I mean wow, law offices. Can I sue someone?" Xander said
They sort of made their way to the door
"Yes, and we can get started on some research." Giles said
"Buffy you can umm stay here and umm yeah.." Willow said she didn't want to push it but everyone knew what she was talking about.
"Come on Angel." Fred said
"Yeah really we should leave Spike and Buffy together." Cordelia said
"Cordy." Willow said
"What I'm just saying since Spike died and Buffy was all miserable." Xander pushed her out the door.
Dawn was at the door but turned quickly and gave Spike another hug.
"Sorry just making sure." She turned a little red.
The door closed behind and Spike and Buffy were alone in the same room for the first time in 4 months. He looked at her. God he missed her. He wanted her. But this wasn't the time he knew that.
"Damn, I haven't had that many hugs in..well forever." He said smiling trying to lighten the mood
Buffy had tears in her eyes now. She just ran up and hugged him.
******************************* Upstairs
"Wow cool, you have your very own library." Xander said looking at all the books around the room
"Ohh well yeah, it's not a lot I mean you guys probably have more stuff at home." Fred said but you could tell she was flattered.
"Ok, I think that we should start looking." Giles said
"Oh research party!" Xander said sarcastically.
Angel was looking downstairs form the hall way. Although he couldn't see anything he kept looking.
"You know stalking is so not cool anymore." Dawn said form behind him. Angel smiled
"And what are you doing" He asked and turned around. Dawn always reminded him of Buffy
"You need to get over it." She said
"I am over it. See I'm up here and they are down there." Angel said
"She'll always love you." Dawn said
"I know." Angel said. That's one thing he like about Dawn she always said the truth, even at times when she should be quiet.
"Good, then you can join the party." Dawn said a little happier
"Party? What party?" Wesley asked. Dawn turned and saw him. He was without a doubt one of the hottest guys she had seen. From the way Buffy had described him. He looked like a younger Giles.
"Ohh umm the research party Xander." She realized it was a joke.
"Hi there you must be Dawn." He said to her
"Yeah, how did you know?" She asked
"You look like Buffy and you ask questions like her to." He said and smiled at her
"Umm guys a little help here." Xander said form the room. They smiled and went in
************************************** Downstairs
Buffy just hugged Spike it was all she could think of doing. He felt so right to her. His strong chest next to her. Those arms holding her. She felt at home for the first time in 4 months. She felt safe.
He held her. He smelled her hair, still the same as always. He just never wanted to let go of her. And then he did.
"Its ok pet." He told her "I'm here now"
"Oh god Spike your really back. I have dreamt about this for so long." Buffy said tears falling down her face. He wiped them off
"I knew you dreamt about me." He said and smiled. She hit his arm
"It's not a joke. You have no idea." She said, it was just like Spike to be insensitive at a time like this.
"You shouldn't cry over me. I'm not worth it." He said to her. Still holding her face.
"Yes you are." She said and kissed him.
***************************************** Upstairs
"So what are we looking for." Xander asked
"Anything that tells us why Spike is back." Angel said still reading a book
"Xander stop complaining and read, if u can." Cordelia said
"Ok I think we need to find out how many vampires have come back form being killed." Willow said. They all looked at Angel.
"Ohh right, me." He said
"Can you remember anything?" Fred asked
"No, I just remember being stalked with a sword then going into the portal. Then the next thing I know is I'm lying on the floor naked."
"Thanks for the visual." Xander said
"Well, can't we can do some kind of magic." Dawn asked
"What do you mean?" Giles asked her
"You know memory retrieval that sort of thing. We can use it to see if Spike has been anywhere since he died." Dawn said
"Well watcher junior has got a good point." Cordelia said
"I think it's brilliant." Wesley said and smiled at her. Dawn smiled and blushed.
"Then where changing books?" Xander asked
***************************************** Down stairs
Buffy was kissing Spike. She had wanted to this for the longest time. The last time she had kissed him was before they went to defeat The First. Buffy had spent the night with Spike in the basement. Her last to be exact, until now. He was the best kisser of them all. He kissed her back. He knew this would lead to more but he wasn't stupid.
"Buffy." Spike said
"Shhh...please." She told him
He pushed he against the wall, and kissed her harder. He moved down and kissed her neck. She pulled on his shirt. She went under it and she could feel his muscles. Those abs that just drove her crazy when she saw him.
"Wait." He pulled away.
"What? Don't you want to?" Buffy asked him
"Of course I want to. That's not the point. Everyone else is up there trying to find out why the bloody hell I'm back and I'm here with you. Not that that's a bad thing."
"Spike what's the matter, since when have you been against this while everyone else did research." She asked
"Since I know why I'm here."
"Hey there little bit." He said and looked at them. She finally let go
"Oh my god I mean your really here." Dawn said to him
"Oh course I am" He said it in a sincere fashion not sarcastically as before. Willow went over and hugged him to. That was a surprise to him. But he hugged her back.
