Summary: Post - Never Leave Me. Buffy finds
something to be thankful for.
Before Buffy became a Slayer, she'd always wanted so many things for Christmas. She adored getting presents, most of which were clothes, make-up, and stuffed toys that were typical for girls.
When she was already a Slayer, she simply wanted the chance to spend time with her family and friends in as normal way as possible, without the burden of her calling.
By the time Christmas came around this year, Buffy was injured and beyond exhausted. But as she gazed upon Spike's face, as he slowly healed in slumber, it seemed that she had never felt so thankful in her life.
