Chapter Forty- Seven: Forfeit
When Alex or Lexy as she like to be called brought Spike to her place he remember everything except the fact he had a wife and child, Lexy decided to call the number marked home on Spike cell phone in his pocket
"Hello" Faith voice said down the phone
"Hi this is Lexy Jones is this Mrs Crawford
"That depends what you need from Mrs Crawford"
"I have got a William Crawford here, I'm looking for his wife" She said
Faith looked at Buffy who was watching a movie with popcorn balanced on her belly, Buffy looked at Faith after hearing her name
"What is it" Buffy asked
"Err, I sure hope this isn't some sick joke, but, this chick is saying she has got Spike with her" Faith said
Buffy jumped up so fast the popcorn went all over the floor, she grabbed the phone and
"Hello hello this is Buffy Crawford" Buffy said down the phone frantically
"Hi, erm I've got William here with me"
"Is he ok, is he hurt oh god please tell me he's not hurt"
"No he's fine, he needed some sleep but..."
"I have to see him" Buffy said cutting he off
Lexy gave Buffy her address and hung up, not giving Lexy a chance to tell her what she needed to tell her
*~*~*~*~*~
Buffy left Alex with Faith and drove as fast as she could to Lexys house, once she got there she ran as fast as she could to the door and knocked frantically
Lexy opened the door, Buffy didn't even ask if she could come in she just walked in and looked around for Spike She saw him and her heart leaped out of her chest as she ran to him
"Oh Spike, I thought Id never see you again, I've missed you so much" She said as she hugged him not caring that he wasn't hugging her back,
Spike looked up at Lexy silently asked whom this woman clinging to him was
"You don't know how much I love you" Buffy said into his shoulder Spike carefully pried Buffy off him and looked at her
"Look luv, I don't know who you are but I know I'm a good looking son of a bitch but we just meet, what's your name pet"
"Spike what are you talking about I'm Buffy, your wife" She said
"Wife, you're off your bird darlin' I aint got a wife, and by the looks of it some guy has already got you" He said pointing at her stomach
"Spike listen to me, I don't know what's wrong with you but you know me, we've been together for over 5 years, we've known each other for longer, you have got a son at home, please tell me you remember" She said clinging to his arms
Spike stepped back from her
"Sorry pet, got me confused with someone else, or I don't know maybe I don't remember you not quite sure, just give me some time yeah, I'll get back to you" He said turning her around as Lexy opened the door Buffy brought her hand to her mouth and backed away from the face she longed to see for mouths, she ran out and ran to her car, and she realised what was happening
"Sorry babe, no repeats, but there is a forfeit"
"Forfeit, what kind, I still getting you back right"
Buffy drove home crying the whole way
*~*~*~*~*~
When Buffy got home she was in shock, she walked through the front door and came face to face with Faith
"What happen, where is he, Buffy what's wrong"
"I just got my forfeit" She said before walking up stairs
Faith shook her head and grabbed Buffys keys and the address and ran out the front door
Once she got to the address she ran in and banged on the door, Lexy opened it and Faith barged past
"Doesn't anyone have manners today, this is my house dammit" Lexy said following Faith
"Well guess what, I don't give a shit" She said walking towards the living room she spotted Spike and walked up to him
Spike looked up and smiled "Faith, long time no see, how you been gorgeous" He said getting up in front of her
"Why are you here and not at home with Buffy and Alex" Faith said with her hands on her hips
"I would be doing exactly what you are saying if I knew what you are talking about" Spike said
"Buffy, you moron your wife" She said
"What the nutty bird that came round earlier, never seen her before in my life" He said turning around to get a drink
Faith spun him back round "That nutty bird has been your wife for 5 years and is probley crying over you again, so why don't you do us both a favour and come home, because I cant watch her cry anymore" Faith half yelled at him
"Well Faith maybe we split up or something and I erased her from my memory but..."
"Memory... forfeit... oh shit" Faith said to herself before running out
Faith drove back to Buffys and ran up stairs to her room, she found her not crying, just sitting on the bed, looking at the locket he had given her before he went, Faith walked over to her and hugged her, Buffy looked up at her then buried her head into her shoulder
"Its the..."
"I know forfeit, don't worry, I think it will where of, just give him time" Faith said
"Faith"
"Hmm" Faith said looking down at her
"I'm so glad you're here, don't go away again ok" She said
"I wont" She said to her friend
