OKAY, SO DID THAT LAST LINE MAKE YOU WONDER? WELL IT'S ALL LEADING UP TO THE. . .SERIES FINALE (LOL) ANYWAY, PLEASE READ AND REVIEW.

"Spike leave me alone," Buffy said angrily as she walked away from him.
"No, get back here!" he screamed in fury.
"I said go away!" she said and slammed the bathroom door.
"Buffy if you don't open this door I'm going to bloody break it down!" he yelled and pounded on the door. She opened it and went into their bedroom. "Where in the bleeding hell were you all night, huh?" he asked, anger building.
"None of your damn business, I'm a big girl Spike, okay, I can do what I want!" Buffy yelled and went into her closet.
'What are you doing?" he asked, trying to calm down, but the resentment was still quite in his voice.
"I'm going out" she said and got out a black red leather skirt and a black long-sleeved peasant top.
"Not in that you're not" Spike said taking the skirt and heading towards the closet.
"Give it back" Buffy said and took it back. "You cannot tell me what I can and can't wear okay."
"Buffy I'm warning you. . ." he said.
"You're, you're warning me, ha!" Buffy laughed and got undressed so she could put on the skirt and peasant top. After doing that she got out her tall black boots. She put them on and then went into the bathroom to do her hair.
"Who are you going out with?" Spike asked, very annoyed.
"Some people, Jack, Leon, Reggie-" Buffy began.
"All guys" Spike said.
"No, Reggie is a girl, her name is short of Regina" Buffy said. After doing her hair she left the bathroom and Spike followed.
"And what about the kids, huh? Did you forget about your two children?" Spike said grabbing her by the arm and turning her around.
"No, I didn't, don't worry, your precious 'time' will not be disturbed, I called Dawn and she's going to watch them, I'm taking them over there" Buffy said.
"That isn't that point, I don't care to watch them, look Buffy, I don't know what wrong with you, but I really don't care all right" he said.
"Oh no of course you don't" Buffy said and walked down the stairs where Charlotte and Robbie were in their playpen. Spike came shortly after.
"Buffy-" he began.
"Look, I'm going okay, I don't have time to talk" Buffy said and gathered all the kids' things and took them out to the car and came back for them. "Come on babies." She picked them up and took them out, Spike following.
"Here" he said and took Robbie while Buffy put Charlotte into her car seat. After doing that she went over to the other side of the car and took Robbie from Spike and put him in his seat and then got in herself. "Buffy, damn it, talk to me."
"Honey, I'm late" Buffy said and left.
Buffy arrived at her mother's house and was met my Dawn.
"Hey Buffy" she said happily and kissed her on the cheek.
"Hey sweetie, thanks for watching Robbie and Charley for me" Buffy said.
"No problem, anytime" Dawn said and took Robbie. "Spike called."
"What did he say?" Buffy asked.
"He said to ask you what's wrong, is there something wrong honey?"
"No, nothing" Buffy said.
"Okay, I'm gonna take your word for it, but if there's something that you want to talk about, you know you can talk to me right?" Dawn asked.
"Of course" Buffy said. She got the babies' things and she and Dawn walked into the house.
"I mean I may be only fourteen, but. . ." Dawn continued.
"I know sweetheart, so, where's mom?" Buffy asked.
"Oh, she went out with this dude from work" Dawn said. Buffy set Robbie and Charley's playpen and Buffy and Dawn put them in it.
"A dude, really, a cute dude?" Buffy asked, amused that her mom as going out with someone.
"Yeah, pretty much, I mean it sickens me to say that an old guy's cute, but. . .he kinda reminded me of Spike" Dawn said.
"Really. . .oh she is such a copycat, I have the bad-boy, that's my thing" Buffy pouted.
"Get over yourself" Dawn teased.
"Okay, I have to go, thanks again sweetie" Buffy said and kissed Dawn and headed out.
"Buffy" Dawn called after her.
"Yeah?" Buffy said, turning back around.
"If there is something wrong-"
"I know, I can talk to you" Buffy said.
"A-actually I was going to say, talk to Spike, though you can talk to me, you love him don't you?" Dawn asked.
"Of course I do" Buffy said.
"Then do you really want to lose him over something stupid?" Dawn asked. Buffy looked at her for a second and then smiled slightly before leaving.

*Later*

Buffy arrived home with the kids at about 12:00 midnight. She put them to bed and went into her and Spike's room and it was empty.
"Spike?" Buffy called, but there was no answer. This put a cold chill down her spine. She moved closer to the bed and saw a piece of paper that red.

Dear Buffy,
We need some time apart. I don't know what your problem is, but you should figure that out alone. I just can't take this anymore. I love you more than anything, but there's only so much a person can take you know. Anyway when you figure out what's wrong call me, I'm at Xander's, see ya. Tell Robbie and Charlotte I love them.

Spike.

Buffy's mouth dropped and she sat down slowly realizing that her husband had left her.
"Oh my g. . .god, no" she whispered to herself as a tear slid down her cheek. She got up and called Willow and Cordelia right away.
"Hello?" Cordy answered.
"Cordy" Buffy said quietly.
"Buffy? Honey what's the matter?" Cordelia said.
"I need to talk to you, I already called Will, please?" Buffy said, trying to hold back tears.
"Of course, I'll be there, ASAP" Cordelia said and they hung up. Both Willow and Cordelia arrived within ten minutes.
"Okay, we're here, what's wrong?"
"I-" Buffy began, but there was a knock at the door. "Oh, that must be my mom." Buffy answered it and Joyce and Dawn were standing there.
"Hey honey, what's up" Joyce said.
"Yeah, it's really late" Dawn said sleepily.
"Well you said I could talk to you anytime right?" Buffy said as she and everyone else sat down.
"Of course, I was just being whiny, what's up?" Dawn asked, rubbing her eyes.
"Uh, i-it's Spike he. . ." Buffy tried to explain.
"What is it sweetie, what's wrong?" Willow asked taking Buffy's hand, Joyce took the other.
"Spike. . .Spike left" Buffy sniffled.
"Left what?" Cordy asked.
"Me" Buffy said with tears in her eyes.
"What?" Dawn asked.
"Why?" Joyce asked.
"How?" Willow asked.
"Because I've been. . .horrible, I just. . .I don't know, oh god" Buffy said as she broke down and started crying.
"Oh baby" Joyce said and hugged her daughter.
"I can't lose him, I don't know why I've been acting so malicious, I just. . ." Buffy said.
"Well you can fix it right? I mean all you have to do is apologize" Willow said.
"I don't know if he'll talk to me" Buffy said.
"Do you really want to risk it?" Cordelia asked.
"No" Buffy said.
"Go upstairs, call him- better yet, go to. . .where is he?" Willow asked.
"Xander's" Buffy said.
"All right, go to Xander's and talk to him" Joyce said.
"Okay, you guys are right, um, can you stay here and watch Charlotte and Robbie?" Buffy asked.
"Of course baby" Willow said. Buffy went over to Xander's and knocked on the door and Xander answered.
"Hey" he said.
"Hi, um, is Spike here?" Buffy asked.
"Uh, yeah" Xander said.
"Can I talk to him, please?" Buffy begged.
"Yeah, of course, come in" Xander said and Buffy entered his apartment. "I'll get him." He left for a couple minutes and Spike came out.
"What do you want" he said in monotone.
"Baby I. . .I'm so sorry" Buffy said.
"Well it's a little late for that don't you think?" Spike asked.
"I don't know why. . .I mean I. . .I love you, I don't want to lose you, please" Buffy begged.
"I think. . .we're better off. . .apart" he said. She backed away taking in what he said.
