Buffy sighed as she awoke from a restful sleep. She stretched her arms and yawned. She looked around at the room confused, this wasn't her room. Then her memory kicked in reminding her that she wasn't in Sunnydale. Buffy pulled the covers off her and she stood up from the bed. Sleep had done her good, she was no longer tired.
Buffy grabbed her suitcase from the floor and placed it on top of the bed. She opened it and started rummaging through it. She found her tooth paste and headed for the bathroom. She returned from the bathroom placing her dental stuff back where she had found it. She grabbed a shirt, a blue sweater, jeans and headed for the shower.
She emerged from the bathroom refreshed and dressed for the day. She ordered some breakfast and ate it hungrily. She hadn't eaten since the food she received in the plane. When she had arrived in the hotel yesterday she had gone to bed immediately.
After breakfast, she watched some t.v. As she watched some show, she kept thinking about Spike and his whereabouts. And if she did find him what was she supposed to say? I came because I was afraid you wouldn't come back and I want to tell you I have feelings. Great explanation, and then it'll all blow up in my face when he says he doesn't want me and thinks I don't believe in his word, Buffy thought sadly. Buffy shook her head as if to shake away all the thoughts from her head.
"No more thinking for Buffy, thinking is bad," she told herself. She turned off the television and paced around the room. She needed to do something or else she would start thinking again. She grabbed her bag and decided to go for a walk and see the sights, after all it was a vacation for her.
She took a cab to the area of the city where shops were located. She paid the cab driver, and watched as he drove off. She had exchanged currency at the airport. She glanced at the sky, it was mostly cloudy, the sun was trying to come out from behind the clouds but it was unsuccessful. She walked around the various stores looking at clothes. A few hours later she stopped at a café. She ordered something to eat and drink. She had ending up buying a sweater for Dawn, a necklace for Willow, and a shirt for Kennedy. She hoped that when Dawn returned from Sweden, Willow and Kennedy would stop by.
When her order came, she ate it slowly. She turned when she heard someone approaching her.
"Hi," Matt said grinning.
"Uh, hi," she smiled.
"Mind if I join you?" he asked casually.
"Not at all," she answered.
He took a seat across from her. " I didn't think I'd see you again. It's not everyday you get to see one of your customers again," Matt said.
"I guess not," she replied.
"But 'f course it does happens once in a while. It's happened to me several times" he admitted..
"Ahh, and I was thinking this was the first time it happened to you," she joked.
"So what are yeh doin' here alone?" he asked.
"I'm not meeting the person that I'm visiting yet," she answered, which again wasn't exactly a lie.
"What are you doing here?" she inquired.
"I had nothing else to do, I just came from a party with my mates, thought I'd have a bit of coffee. I've got to study a lot tonight," he explained.
"You study?" she asked a bit surprised.
He nodded. "Driving a taxi is only part time. I'm studying to become a doctor," he explained.
"Doctors are good. Always need them when people get hurt," she smiled.
They talked for several minutes, when Buffy said, " I have to go now."
"Okay, I'll give you a ride. It's a long walk back to your hotel," he offered.
She agreed. She glanced out the car window. Dusk had fallen, a part of her was hoping that she'd see Spike in some street of course she knew it was stupid, but still. The car suddenly stopped, her hotel was in plain view.
"Thanks," she said gratefully.
"It was nothing," he said. He searched through his pocket and gave her a card, "If you ever need another ride here's my number." "Ok, I'll be sure to use this next time," she smiled
She stared at him, he leaned in closer. His lips were almost upon hers when she pulled away and opened the door. "Its late, you better go home and study. Thanks for the ride," she said as she closed the door. She walked up to her room. She closed the door behind her and dumped her bags on the floor.
Matt, was a good guy not to mention good looking but she wasn't interested in any guy right now other than Spike. She hoped she wouldn't have to see Matt again, unless it was necessary.
It had been two days later and she done her best at trying to find out where Spike was but she had come up with nothing. She had found several demon bars in the area, but Spike had not been there. She had pumped several demons for information but they were no help. She had called Dawn the previous two days telling her about her unsuccessful search.
Buffy was getting ready for bed when the phone rang. She picked it up and answered it, it was Dawn.
"Buffy I have news," her sister said excitedly.
