"Oh my god!" Cordy cried as she and Faith pulled Buffy into a group hug.

"Hi guys" Buffy said "You remember Spike right?" she asked, gesturing towards Spike.

"Of course, how could we forget" Faith replied.

Buffy and Spike had snuck across the town and to the airstrip. Where they met up with Cordy and Faith in the jet.

The jet they were in looked a lot like the one they had gone from LA to England in.

At one end Faith was sleeping and Cordy was reading a magazine. At the other end Buffy and Spike were sitting on a couch watching TV. When the jet started to take off Spike grabbed onto Buffy's hand. Buffy couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Oh my god, you're afraid of flying" Buffy accused.

"I bloody well am not" Spike scoffed.

"Then why did you grab onto my hand?" Buffy questioned.

"I thought you might be scared and I wanted to comfort you" Spike replied.

The jet started to move faster and Spike tilted his head back. He took three slow breaths. Buffy put her hand on the side of his face and forced him to look at her.

"Don't worry I won't let anything happen to you. Remember my job is to protect you" Buffy said in a sweet voice to try and comfort Spike.

The jet started to incline and Spike tightened his grip on Buffy's hand.

"Hey, I thought I told you not to worry!" Buffy said as she leaned up and started to kiss Spike.

Faith and Cordy were too distracted to notice the couple making out in the back of the jet.

When they arrived at the airport there was a limo waiting there for them. It was a 20-minute drive to Spike's vacation mansion on the water.

The vacation mansion was a huge, but beautiful brick building with fences and security guards everywhere. When you first enter the house there is a beautiful marble staircase, a hallway to the left and a hallway to the right.

"If you guys every need anything there are staff everywhere, just ask them. They'll be glad to help you" Spike said as he lead them down the hallway to the left.

"This is the guest wing" Spike explained "There are seven guest rooms, you can take your pick" he added.

"Thanks" Buffy said.

"I'm going to go and take a shower. Your bags will be brought to your room. Dinner is at 6:30, I'll see you then" Spike said as he walked away.

"Bye" the three girls called.

"Oh and you're free to roam around, but my brother's study is off limits" Spike called over his shoulder as he disappeared around the corner.

'Spike has a brother!?' Buffy's mind screamed. Why didn't he mention him?

Faith and Cordy thought nothing of the brother and started looking through the bedrooms, to pick the one they wanted.

****

The room Buffy had chosen was huge. The walls were off-white with a forest green comforter and beautiful wood furniture. It even had it's own bathroom. Cordy had chosen a bedroom with lime green walls and blue accents. It too had it's own bathroom. Faith had chosen a bedroom with dark blue walls and a dark blue comforter to match. It also had it's own bathroom.

The girls quickly unpacked and went for a walk around. They soon found the back yard and it was amazing. The mansion was right on the water. On the right there was a tennis court, basketball court and beautiful green field. On the left there was a hot tub and a very large swimming pool.

Cordelia could not understand why they would have a swimming pool if they were right beside the water.

"After dinner we just have to go for a walk on the beach" Cordy said.

"I wonder if Spike has an extra surf board. I haven't been surfing in so long," Faith added.

"What are you doing here?" Someone shouted from the beach "This house is private property. How did you get past the security?" the person shouting was wearing a wet suit undone hanging around his waist and he had a surfboard tucked under his arm. He had brown hair and looked to be about 25 years old.

"We're staying here" Buffy replied as the man walked closer to them.

"That's not possible. The people who own this house never rent it out" the man replied.

"Xander there're staying here with me," Spike said as he came up behind them.

"Spike it's good to see you" Xander said, grabbing Spike's hand and giving him a quick 'man hug'.

"Where's Willow?" Spike asked.

"I'm here," Willow said as she ran up from the water.

"Willow!" Spike exclaimed as he pulled her into a hug.

"It's good to see you too Spike" Willow replied.

"Aren't you going to introduce us?" Xander questioned.

"Right........Sure, Xander this is Buffy, Faith and Cordelia. Girls this is Xander and Willow. They live right next door" Spike said, he pointed to their huge mansion.

Spike moved closer to Buffy and put his hand on the small of her back. This gesture did not go unnoticed to Faith and Cordelia.

"Sorry about earlier. This is a private beach owned by three families. Mine, Spike's and...." Xander started to say.

"This chit Harmony down the way" Spike said.

"It's fine, we understand. You were just watching out for the property" Cordy replied.

Spike looked down at his watch.

"Dinner will be ready now. We should get inside" Spike said.

"Okay" Buffy replied.

"Do you guys want to stay for dinner?" Spike asked Xander and Willow "I'm sure the cook made extras," he added.

"I was waiting for you to ask" Xander joked.

The six of them headed inside and didn't notice the girl that was watching them. She noticed the way Spike was looking at Buffy and she was boiling mad. Nobody touched 'her' man.
