Buffy opened her mouth to reply but a loud voice interrupted her.

"DEMONS, LADIES, WHATEVER YOU ARE! PLEASE DIRECT YOUR ATTENTION TO THE STAGE. WE HAVE OUR FIRST PARTICPANT FOR TONGHT'S OPEN MIKE SHOW!" The pair swerved around to see a scaly demon talking on the microphone. A few demons clapped but most of them just eyed him and went back to their talking.

"Tonight's open mike?" Angel asked himself.

"PLEASE WELCOME, A GOOD FRIEND OF MINE, WHO LOST A POKER GAME AND NOW HAS TO PERFORM........................SPIKE!" The demon announced. Buffy and Angel's out popped out of their socket and jaws dropped to the ground with a thud.

"Sp-spike?" Buffy whispered as she saw the familiar bleached blonde climb up on stage.

"Dammit Spike." Angel said, not realizing he said it out loud.

"You knew he was back? YOU KNEW HE WAS BACK?" Buffy asked as her voice got shriller. But Spike's voice over the microphone turned her attention away from Angel to the bleached blonde.

"Umm... ok...I didn't know what to sing but this song came to my mind. I made it up a few years ago, for a girl. It's a little sappy, I know, deal with it." Spike said as he cleared his throat.

"I died, So many years ago. But you can make me feel, Like it isn't so. And why you come to be with me, I think I finally know, Mmm, mmm. You're scared. Ashamed of what you feel. And you can't tell the ones you love, You know they couldn't deal. Whisper in a dead man's ear, It doesn't make it real." Spike stopped for a breath as Buffy pushed through the crowd in front of the stage. Spike was about to sing when he spotted her in the crowd. Their eyes met before Spike started singing again.

"That's great. But I don't wanna play. 'Cause being with you touches me, More than I can say. But since I'm only dead to you, I'm saying stay away And let me rest in peace. Let me rest in peace. Let me get some sleep Let me take my love and bury it, In a hole six foot deep. I can lay my body down, But I can't find my sweet release. So let me rest in peace! You know, You've got a willing slave .And you just love to play the thought

That you might misbehave. But till you do I'm telling you, Stop visiting my grave And let me rest in peace." Spike was on the floor standing in front of Buffy by now, their eyes never leaving each other. Angel watched jealously from his spot as Spike stroked Buffy's cheek with a hand and started singing again.

"I know I should go. But I follow you like a man possessed. There's a traitor here beneath my breast. And it hurts me more than you've ever guessed If my heart could beat, it would break my chest. But I can see you're unimpressed

So leave me be. And let me rest in peace. Let me get some sleep. Let me take my love and bury it. In a hole six foot deep I can lay my body down, But I can't find my sweet release... Let me rest in peace. Why won't you, Let me rest in peace?" Spike finished the song and threw the mike back. The crowd was silent as he grabbed Buffy and smashed his lips on her's. They went back to talking a few seconds later but Buffy and Spike was still kissing each other. They came up for air a few minutes later.

"I love you so much Buffy." Spike said, Buffy didn't say anything but just kissed him passionately again. When they eventually broke apart again, Buffy looked into the blue eyes that she missed so much.

"I love you too." She whispered stroking his face; Spike froze for a second before holding her close to him and burying his head in her hair. Spike pulled away a few minutes later.

"How did you get here luv?" He asked.

"I was gonna ask you the exact question." Buffy replied, taking his hand.

"How bout we see what Peaches is brooding about first?" Spike suggested.

"Good idea, then I can kick his butt to next Wednesday for not telling me you came back." Buffy said, before they started walking hand in hand towards the table. Gunn was sitting there talking to the brood master when they reached it.

"Oh look, the couple returns." Angel mumbled as he sat there.

"Why didn't you tell me Spike was back?" Buffy asked, her voice cold.

"I thought it was for your own good." Angel replied, looking up at Buffy.

"For my own good? It's always about what You think is for my own good. You left me cause YOU thought it was the right thing, and now you keep me away from the man I love cause YOU think it's the right thing? You've gone to far Angel." Buffy ranted.

"How should I know you loved him?" Angel asked getting up, "You just told me the cookie needed baking and that you weren't ready!" The room was silent as they watch the drama unfold before them.

"Well, now the cookie is done. And its for Spike." Buffy replied before turning to the other vampire, "Can we go?" Spike smiled at her before nodding.

"You don't still drive a piece of old junk around right?" Buffy asked as they walked away from the confused lawyer and the pissed vamp.

"Nah, got myself a new car. It has all these James Bond like gadgets in it." Spike replied, smiling at the slayer.

"How did you come back Spike?" Buffy asked, when they got into his car.

"I'll tell you on the way if you explain to me the whole cookie thing." Spike offered. Buffy just smiled and gave him a chaste kiss before he started the car. ************* "What just happened?" Gunn asked, sitting beside the older vampire confused. "Spike got the cookie..." Angel said as he got up, "Lets go, we need good rest before Wesley figures out what's going on." The confused man just nodded and they walked out of the bar quiet.
