Switched Chapter 4 (Spike and Angel have meet and greet. So sweet.)
"What you got there?" ask Spike curious about Angel's new toy.
"Nothing," replies Angel. "It doesn't concern you."
"It bloody well does," says Spike. He tries to take the trinket from Angel. The two act like little children pulling back and forth. "Give it."
"No, you can't have it," says Angel pulling it away. Spike raises an eyebrow.
"Are bloody twelve," says Spike. Angel looks at him with a serious expression.
"What do want to prove to Buffy?" Angel ask.
"I'm not out to prove anything," replies Spike and sighs. "Me and Buffy...We've gotten close..."
"How close?" ask Angel curious to know the answer.
"That's none of your damn business 'Dawson'", says Spike with a smirk. Angel rolls his eyes at him.
"You heard everything," says Angel about the conversation with him and Buffy.
"Yep, comes with the whole package," says Spike waving his arms trying to look like a scary vampire.
"I know why she didn't argue about my decision," says Angel.
"Why?" ask Spike curious of the answer.
"If you were gone in her life I couldn't be there for her the way she wants me to be," says Angel. "Also she knew you were lurking around and set us up." The two laugh.
"I think she has enough love from the both of us," says Spike. "Even from Xander and Giles."
"A champion needs to wear this," says Angel holding up the trinket. He gives it to Spike. Spike is confuse. "You're hers. I'll be the second front." Spike raises an eyebrow and sees that his old friend is being sincere.
"Pretty little thing," says Spike putting it on.
"You look like Liz Taylor," jokes Angel with a smile. They shook hands and embrace. Then they cough and release each other quickly.
"Well, I gotta go," says Angel looking away. "Start the second front."
"Yeah, um right," says Spike. "So long." They both turn away from each other then turn back.
"You tell anyone about this..." They look at each other and finish the sentence in their minds. Then they head their separate ways.
Buffy arrives to give Giles information on the Scythe. Giles, Anya, Dawn, Xander, Willow, Faith, Robin, and Kennedy gather up in the dinning room. Buffy hands the Scythe to Willow. Faith is sitting next to Robin who is trying to make eye contact. She looks at him and then leaves the room. Xander and Anya head out of the room as Willow and Giles sit down to look for more information on the Scythe.
"Giles, can I talk to you?" ask Buffy. Giles looks up and puts his book down. Buffy heads into the kitchen. Giles follows her. Buffy turns around as Giles enters the kitchen.
"Giles sit please," says Buffy. Giles sits down on one of the chairs. He tries to speak but Buffy interrupts him. "Don't. I've got something to say and it's not because the end of the world is coming." Giles gives a concern look.
"I wanted to tell you this like forever," says Buffy. "I wanted to thank you for being there for Dawn and me." Buffy walks back and forth then stops in front of him.
"I couldn't make it this far if it wasn't for you," says Buffy.
"Buffy, I don't think that's true," says Giles. "You have become a very mature and beautiful young woman. I think that you are giving a bit too much credit."
"Well, you deserve it," Buffy says. "You taught me a lot of stuff that I couldn't have learn on my own." Giles feels flatter by the words and smiles.
"I want to thank you for being the father that I never had," says Buffy in a meek voice. This got Giles' attention and he looks straight into Buffy's green eyes. He gets up from his chair and a whole 'Full House' mode (a hug) happens. Giles is getting teary and Buffy could hear it in his voice.
"I don't know...what to say," says Giles. He releases Buffy then looks at her. "It was an honor to be the father you never had." Buffy smiles and Giles smiles back. He gives Buffy a kiss on the forehead then Buffy heads into the living room.
Xander and Anya are sitting on the sofa surrounded by all the potentials. He is telling them the story about when Buffy fought Dracula. He did leave out the part about he being Dracula's butt monkey. His eyes find Buffy's and he smiles. Buffy smiles back and heads down to the basement.
Down in the basement Buffy finds Spike. He senses her, but doesn't turn around. Buffy walks closer to him.
"Hey," says Spike still turned away from her.
"Hey," says Buffy. She gives a stern look.
"So, you planned it," says Spike talking about his meeting with Angel. Buffy nods her head. He shook his head and turns toward Buffy.
"Looks good," Buffy says with a smile about the trinket.
"Thanks," Spike says. Silence covers the room for a minute.
"Why didn't you want me to have this," ask Spike about the trinket that Angel gave him. Buffy looks into his mesmerizing eyes.
'Oh no Tammy you are so right, blue eyes.'
"I care...for you Spike," says Buffy.
"Took you a while to spit those words out," he says.
"I didn't mean to say it that way," says Buffy. "Well, it's not like nobody has ever said it to you before."
"They haven't ," says Spike. He looks down then turns away.
'Oh great now I made him feel bad.' Buffy says in her mind.
"Spike..." Buffy begins, but he stops her by looking at her with those blue eyes.
'Stop it stop it stop it!' Buffy says in her mind.
"I don't want you to go away again," says Buffy trying to act like Buffy a little more. Spike grins.
"That's what Angel said," says Spike. "He says that I can make you happy." Buffy gives him a strange look.
"We are talking about the same Angel, right," says Buffy. "Tall, dark, and broody." Spike laughs.
"Yes," replies Spike. "I didn't believe myself, but I think he's got a point." Spike walks up to Buffy and she jumps a little because he is getting to close.
"You okay love?" ask Spike. Buffy stands straight and tall.
"I'm fine," replies Buffy looking away. "Um, do you think I could crash here with you tonight? I feel a little claustrophobic in my room." She walks over to the cot.
"What do I get?" ask Spike being cocky.
"Spike... Forget it," Buffy says and walks away.
"Wait," calls Spike. He tries to catch her before she heads up the stairs. "I was just kidding slayer. You could stay." Buffy turns around and walks over to the cot. Spike takes off his duster and the two climb onto the cot.
"Spike," says Buffy.
"What?" ask Spike.
"What would you say if Anya and Xander had sex on your cot?" Buffy gives a smile. Spike is looking up at the ceiling then turns to Buffy.
"I say that bloody whelp is going to get it," says Spike. "Is this true."
"No," replies Buffy. She smiles and Spike sees it.
"Are you smiling?" ask Spike. Buffy nods and tries not to langh.
"Spike," says Buffy.
"What?" ask Spike.
"Can I wear your duster?" ask Buffy.
"No," he replies.
"I had to try," Buffy says. Spike gives a grin and nods his head. "Good night Spike."
"Goodnight...Buffy," says Spike as the two close their eyes and drift to sleep.
In the middle of the night Buffy wakes up and begins to walk around the basement. She is waiting for the First to appear. It appears as Caleb.
"Gosh, it took you long," says Buffy. "Thought I was going to be waiting here forever." The First as Caleb gives a confuse look.
"That Faith killed my right arm," says the First.
"Isn't that too bad," says Buffy. "I would of done it myself, but..."
"But I got an army," says the First. "You are just one." The First turns into Buffy. "In every generation there is a chosen one. She alone...There's that word again. Alone. What you are . What you'll always be. Alone." The First says in the form of Buffy. Buffy gives the First a serious look and keeps quiet.
"What no snappy come back," says the First.
"You're right," says Buffy.
"Not your best," says the First. Then in the instant that it came, the First, disappears in the mist of the dark basement.
"I'm drowning in footwear," says Spike waking up all of sudden. "Weird dream." Spike rolls out of the bed. He sees Buffy standing up by the stairs.
"Buffy, What's wrong," ask Spike with a concern look.
"I just realize something," says Buffy. "We're going to win." Her eyes get wider as she looks straight towards Spike's direction. Spike still half asleep becomes confuse.
"What you got there?" ask Spike curious about Angel's new toy.
"Nothing," replies Angel. "It doesn't concern you."
"It bloody well does," says Spike. He tries to take the trinket from Angel. The two act like little children pulling back and forth. "Give it."
