Chapter 10
They were all outside in the cemetery after the events in the cave. Past Spike and Buffy were sitting on the ground by a tombstone with Buffy's head resting on his shoulder. "How do you feel?" He asked her and she looked at him.
"I think I'm starting to get stronger. That was a close one." He put his arm around her and kissed the top of her head.
"Yeah, a little too close." Past Buffy looked at the other Buffy and Spike.
"So, we did what we were supposed to, right? We both admitted that we loved each other, does that mean you're supposed to go back now?" Future Buffy looked at her.
"I don't know, nothing seems to be happening. Maybe we're supposed to be doing something else." She said looking at her Spike.
"I don't know what else there is to do." He told her.
"I may have an idea." Past Spike stated as he stood up and pulled Buffy up with him. She didn't know what he was getting at when he then cupped her face and kissed her gently on the lips. Her lips parted to allow him entrance and they continued like that for a few seconds when he pulled away to let her breathe.
"Wow," she commented and he smiled at her.
"My thoughts exactly." He told her. Future Buffy and Spike smiled at them when she felt strong wind and turned around to see the familiar white light. She looked closer and realized that it was a portal. She then turned back to Spike.
"Well, I guess this is it. We did what we had to and now we can go home." He nodded and they turned to the other two.
"We wish you didn't have to go. I got used to having another me around." Past Buffy told herself. Future Buffy smiled at her and pulled her in for a hug.
"You take care of yourself." She told her and the girl nodded.
"Same goes to you." Future Spike patted his past self on the back.
"You take care of her." He told him and past Spike nodded.
"Always," he replied. Future Buffy grabbed her Spike's hand and they both headed to the portal when Buffy then thought of something and turned back to her younger self.
"A few years from now something happens with mom. Make sure you get her to the hospital at the first sign of a headache." She told past Buffy and she nodded in understanding. She then took her Spike's hand again and looked at him. "You ready?" He smiled back at her.
"As ready as I'll ever be." With that they both walked into the portal.
