(original words) in the song ADDED WORDS in the song all lyrics in bold

Summary: Angel had seen the previous scene with Buffy singing to Spike, now he wants to know what's going on.


Slowly Angel backed away from the crypt. Hoping that they were to caught up in each other to notice his presence. He wasn't as shocked as he could have been, but seeing them kiss was enough to make him want to get in his car and drive back to L.A. as fast as possible.

One of his demon contacts he still kept in contact with had called earlier that day. He had simply stated that something was going on between Buffy and Spike. Angel had assumed that Spike was attempting to add another slayer to his kill list. Obviously he had been wrong, unless he was trying to kill her with his tongue. And what was with all the singing?

Slowly he made his way to Revello Drive hoping she would eventually show up so that he could find out what was going on. Suddenly music came out of nowhere, growing louder, startling him as he turned in all directions trying to figure out where it was coming from.

So you're in love with someone else Someone who burns within your soul

He was finishing the second verse before he realized that the singing was coming from himself.
What the hell?

And it looks like I'm the last to know I hear you've never felt so alive So much desire beyond control And as usual I am the last to know

How could he not have heard about this sooner? And why Spike of all people..things...vamps? He left so that she could have a normal life. This is so not normal, and neither is this singing.

The last to know how you're feeling The last to know where you are The last to know if you're happy now Or if he's treating you like I treated you Or if he's cruel I'll be the last to know

At least he didn't have a soul to lose, wouldn't end up torturing her just to see the pain in her eyes. He was going to be reasonable about this. Make sure that it isn't a spell or demon controlling her, make sure she's ok. If everything checks out he'll go, but if he finds out that this is not what Buffy wants Spike is go to be dust.

We spent nights out (summers up) beyond the bay And you said that we had (these are) such perfect ways (days)
That if the bomb drops baby, I want to be the last to know

It's not like any of the Scoobies would beat a path to him anyway. They never wanted him in her life to begin with. Maybe not so much Willow but definitely Xander and Giles.

But now you're living up behind the hill And though we DONT share the same city and I DONT feel the samesun When your winter comes I'll be the last to know

Riley... he had understood about Riley, didn't make him like him, but he understood. Normal. But Spike was anything but normal.

Always the last to know how you're feeling The last to know where you are The last to know if you're happy now Or if he's pleading with you like I pleaded with you If you go don't let me be the last to know Don't let me be the last To know

Maybe Buffy was right all along, maybe slayers couldn't do normal. With everyone in her life that she had to protect maybe a "normal" boyfriend would just be one more person on the list. Maybe she felt that she didn't have to worry about if Spike got hurt because she knew he could handle himself in a fight.

Creation's gone crazy,the tv's gone mad Now you're the only sane thing that I have

He settled himself down on the front porch to wait and hope that she wouldn't smell of sex when she finally arrived. He wasn't sure if he could handle that right now. His nerves were already shot after witnessing the scene in the crypt.

The last to know how you're feeling The last to know where you are The last to know if you're happy now

He would find out what was going on. If this is what it would take to make Buffy happy then he would accept it. But before he left he would make sure to threaten a good staking if Spike caused her any harm. And what was up with all this damn singing?

Or if he's treated (cheating) on you like I treated (cheated on) you And you were the last to know

Suddenly hearing footsteps coming up the sidewalk, he glanced up in time to see Buffy and Spike walking hand in hand. She looked at the blonde when he stopped suddenly looking toward the house.

"Spike what's wrong...? Angel." Her voice lowering.

"Buffy. Spike." He couldn't help but growl as he said the vamps name. Trying to remember why he was supposed to be civil.

"Poof." Spike couldn't stop the smirk that came to his face when he realized that Buffy had not let go of his hand.

Angel looked away from their hands to stare into Buffy's eyes hoping to find a clue there as to what was going on. "Buffy can we talk?"

Reviews: When I said earlier that I would take just a couple of words I didn't mean that was all you could leave just that I would be happy to know whether everyone "loved it", "hated it", "thought it was ok" or "thought it was stupid". Just wanted everyone to know I was easy...not that I'm easy... just that you don't have to give make a big effort just to let me know what you think. ok I'm stopping now before I get myself in deeper.
