It was 7 o'clock and Buffy and Giles had come back to the warehouse. Spike was waiting and the rest of the gang were still gone.

"Hello Buffy," said Spike.

"Hi Spike," replied Buffy. She turned to Giles," could you leave us alone. If you don't mind."

Giles nodded his head and turned over to the door and went off to the coffee house.

"I need to speak to you Buffy. I mean about what's going on. I know that this is putting alot of pressure on you and that I am sorry that you were the slayer that would have to be it," said Spike. She was sitting on the couch and Spike was walking back a forth behind the couch, pacing. Nervous.

"Spike I really do have to confess something," said Buffy, now turning to look at Spike. "I am now sarting to have my feelings for you again."

"What do you mean?"

"I mean that I love you, Spike. I will always now forever love you," asid Buffy.

"Buffy I-"

"I mean it. I love you."

"but how can i be sure of it. Last time you said that, you went and loved another bloke and loved him," said Spike now sitting next to her.

"I can prove it."

"How-" Buffy kissed him and continued for awhile.

"There does that prove anything?"

"Yes."

*~*~*~*~*~*~*At The Coffee House*~*~*~*~*~*~*


Giles entered the soffee house and saw that Willow, Xander and Wood at the table. He walked over and joined them.

"Hey Giles," geeted Willow.

"Hi there," returned the gretting to all of them. "have you seen Andrew?"

"No. Why?" asked Wood.

"Because I needto speak to him about Buffy," replied Giles.

"Why? What happened?" asked Xander.

"He didn't accept the idea," replied Giles looking down at the ground.

"Oh man. Oh does Buffy feel?" asked Willow.

"She was quite upset. Tough when we went back to the warehouse she ended up talking to Spike, alone. That's whyI'm here," explained Giles.

"Oh. Andrew went off to someplace. Don't know where. But he must be thinking quite hard. He seemed really upset when he left," said Wood.

"Oh I hope he doesn't go back to the warehouse yet. Spike and Buffy are still talking and I don't want anyone to interupt them," said Giles and he took off with the rest the gang heading off to the warehouse.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*Back At The Warehouse*~*~*~*~*~*~*


Spike and Buffy continued talking when Andrew walked in.

"So I take it that you are not going with the plan. Huh Spike?" asked Andrew from the doorway. Buufy and Spike turned around and saw him there.

"I'm sorry mate. But if I start that stuff, I will for sure be killed and I don't want to put anyone in danger at all," said Spike.

"Well thank-you for being generous. Well Buffy, I guess we're just going to be friends," replied Andrew.

"But you always be a great friend with a big heart," said Buffy. She walked over to him and hugged him, then gave him a kiss on the cheek and sat down with Spike. He rubbed his cheek and blushed.
