Summary. AU BtVS Season 6. Dark. Buffy wants
her gift from Spike.
She had made him promise.
The night when they literally brought the house down, Buffy had wrung a promise from Spike. Fool that he was, he had vowed to do whatever she asked of him.
Now she was asking, and he wished more than anything that he could deny her what she wanted.
But the truth was that he never could.
Buffy came to him the night after Christmas. After spending a perfect holiday with her friends, she was back in the arms of the undead, seeking her gift.
Come morning, the Slayer lay peacefully on her mother's grave, her lifeless body showered with dust.
