************ And you were nothing but a lonely all American girl But you were something like a dream come true.

************

Spike stared down at the girl in his arms, running his hands through her golden hair, he felt like the luckiest man in the world. He could not remember when he last felt this happy and at peace.

She was almost angelic, lying peacefully in his arms. Looking at her sleeping form, he smiled, she had marks where her mascara had run during now forgotten tears and her hair was ruffled from running earlier, but she was perfect.

Running earlier. Spike cracked a smile at the memory of the mad dash to escape the rising sun. Feeling the harsh rays on his back, Spike had feared that he would not make it. Luckily enough for the pair, there was an abandoned shed near the entrance of the park, diving in Spike had momentarily missed what would have been his end.

Buffy, swept from the run and the excitement of the night's events, had stood there shakily for a while. Spike, glancing to make sure she was all right, had caught her eye, and the two in the absurdity of the situation had fell into hysterical laughter.

A smile, like he had not seen since the death of her mother, almost a year ago had graced her face, warming his unbeating heart. In a wave of emotion, they had collapsed into each other's arms with quiet words of love and happiness, several hours later that is where they remained.

Buffy had fallen asleep quickly, the events of the last few days catching up with her. Spike realising that she was exhausted, left her to dream. Not taking his eyes of her, he held her close.

*********** For taking the rain when I'm feeling so dry, For giving me the answers when I'm asking you why My oh my, for that I thank you.

***********

Buffy dreamed, she hadn't slept in days and she hadn't felt this at peace for a long time. For months, her nights had been shadowed by her worries and fears, nightmares of death and the horror that had been her life. That was over now, she was safe, she could dream.

She dreamed of a time, almost a lifetime away, fighting against the strongest opponent she had faced. She had been young and naïve, the likes of military operations and hell gods had never been thought of, this man, this vampire had been the ultimate fight.

He was different from anybody she had ever fought, he was cunning and resourceful, she had never been able to kill him.

He knew her so well; even back when they were sworn enemies, he had known her better than anyone, even Angel.

***********

For taking the sun when I'm feeling so old, For giving me child when my body is old, Don't you know, for that I need you?

For coming to my room when you know I'm alone, For finding me highway and for driving me home, For that I serve you.

************

She remembered their uneasy alliance to defeat Angelus, and she remembered her anger when he returned months later.

She thought of the times he had spent with her mum, reminiscing over hot chocolate and mini marshmallows.

She thought back to Willows 'will be done' spell and remembered how good it had felt to be happy in his arms, and she recalled the disgust she had felt after.

************ For revving me up when I'm stopping to stall, For pulling me away when I'm starting to fall, And all in all, for that I want you.

For taking and for giving and for playing the game, For praying for my future in the days that remain, Oh lord, for that I hold you.

************

She dreamed about the way he cared for Dawn, even when she was away he had kept his promise. He treated her like a precious little sister.

She laughed at the thought of the bickering that was always present, the pointless verbal sparring, both fighting with their wit.

She remembered the first time he said he loved her, the way she had reacted.

Images of the times they spent together whizzed passed; him singing, them fighting, the sex, and over all the unhealthy relationship they had shared.

It was all passing her by so fast, the horrible way she had treated him, Riley's return, whispered break up, the letter, him, leaving and the last few days..

Most of all she dreamed about love.

************ Spike watched her sleep, her lips curled in to a tiny smile, he briefly wondered what she was dreaming but decided it could wait. The sun would be down in a few hours and they could go home, but there was no need to disturb her yet.

Home. How would everyone react? Dawn, The Scoobies.Xander, god, the boy would totally wig. It didn't really matter though, Sunnydale and the gang, that could wait.

Right now, he was in love. everything else could wait.

************

Ah, but most of all, For crying out loud, For that I love you.

When your crying out loud, You know I love you.
