Talking in My Sleep
A week later...
Spike's Office: Spike is working on some paper work when the mailman came in and gave Spike his mail. One of the letters was a postcard from Xander. The picture on the postcard was beautiful scenery in Utah, canyons. On the back Xander wrote "I know you are wishing you were here."
Spike smiled and thought 'He's right'. Spike took the postcard and placed it near one of his pictures so he can look at it. Then Spike took a deep breath and went back to work.
L.A: Buffy is walking on a busy beach. She's wearing a long skirt and a tank top and carrying her sandals. She stops walking and looks out into the ocean and sees a boat moving slowly across the water. Buffy just stared at the boat.
Spike's Office: A guy walks passed Spikes door but comes back with a surprised look.
Guy: Spike?
Spike: (Gets up and walks over to shake the guys hand) Hey Jim.
Jim: What are you doing home so soon? Car break down?
Spike: No... I just felt like getting back to work.
Jim: Xander must be bummed then.
Spike: No...he's still out there...probably in the middle of the desert somewhere.
Jim: He's all alone.
Spike: Yeah...I feel bad leaving him out there.
Jim: Then why did you?
Spike: It's complicated.
Jim: How far did you get to?
Spike: Denver.
Jim: Tell me, see anything interesting?
Spike: (Stopped and thought a moment) Yeah...
Jim: Really What?
Spike: Umm...nothing just—I got to get back to work Jim I'll talk to you later okay?
Jim: Alright...see you later. (Walks down the hall)
L.A:
Apartment: Buffy and a realtor are traveling through a nice apartment.
Realtor: The best part about the apartment is the deck... (Opens a sliding glass door and goes out on the deck and Buffy follows) this has a beautiful site of the ocean. It's truly romantic and beautiful at night.
Buffy: I bet.
Realtor: Well?
Buffy: (Looks around) I'll take it.
New York:
Spike's Apartment: Spike walks in and hears the sound of his empty apartment. He grabs an ice tea from the frig and sits down in the living room. He takes a sip of his drink and then puts it on the counter and then lies down on the couch. He closes his eyes and then when he opens them he sees Buffy leaning against the couch looking at him.
Spike: What are you staring at?
Buffy: You...you look tired. (Moves to the foot of the couch)
Spike: Maybe because I can't sleep with you haunting me in my dreams luv.
Buffy: If I'm haunting you wouldn't they be nightmares?
Spike: No there not...when it comes to you...it's never a nightmare. (Buffy smiles)
Buffy: You know you're sleeping again and when you wake up I won't be here.
Spike: (Softly) I know.
Buffy: It doesn't have to be this way. (Sits on the arm of the couch near his feet)
Spike: (Looks at her for a little bit) Where are you pet?
Buffy: I miss you Spike.
Spike: God Buffy I miss you so much it hurts.
(Spike catches her quick smile before he wakes up on the couch. He sits up and runs his hands through his hair)
Spike: (Mumbles) This has got to stop.
L.A:
Hallway of Buffy's Apartment: Buffy is walking to her door when someone in the hall stops her.
Guy: Hi.
Buffy: Oh...hi.
Guy: You're new, right?
Buffy: Yeah...I'm Buffy Summers.
Guy: Rupert Giles. (Shakes Buffy's hand)
Buffy: (Smiles) Nice to meet you.
REVIEWS PLEASE!! I was going to have Angel instead of Giles but...what can I say I change my mind a lot. (
