"I think it's cute!" Fred cried out, watching Spike and Angel talk together, in their own little world. Wesley, Gunn, Fred, Harmony, Willow and Lorne all sat in Angel's office at his table, having a meeting while Buffy watched the two vampires, happy and watching them with extreme curiosity.
"That's not cute, it's scary." Wesley disagreed, staring as Angel made a joke, causing Spike to laugh. Even Willow thought it to be a little freaky. "So explain this again Harmony…"
"I came into the office, and Angel and Spike were hugging. I think Buffy did something to them, I mean, that is so unlike them." Harmony said, almost nauseated by them.
"I guess we have underestimated the powers of Buffy. She did the impossible by saving Fred…" Wesley paused to glare at Gunn, who had let the sarcophagus inside Wolfram and Hart. Gunn looked down at the table, staying quiet. "And has altered the 'attitude' of Angel and Spike…"
"Buffy is like a god, except she is stronger. She destroyed a god that tried to take over Fred. She can change anything to her liking, and there are no consequences. She can end the world as easily as make her own." Willow said, speaking up, her eyes watching the Slayer.
The table was silent until Lorne spoke up, singing a song quietly. "It is picked; it stays alone, the tipping of the balance. It gets dropped on one side, if they take it, the tipping of the balance. It changes side if they lose, now they take it, the tipping of the balance. Death, life, it can do anything, befriend it, and you rule all, with the tipping of the balance."
Lorne finished and everyone stared at him, confused. He smiled nervously and said, "It's a song we would hear when we were young, kind of like nursery rhymes you had as children."
"Buffy is the tipping of the balance." Fred spoke up, causing everyone to turn to her as she got excited. "I mean, that nursery rhyme describes her. The two sides, good and evil, she was in a hell dimension, but nothing evil was able to befriend her. So she was dropped with us, and now…"
"We can rule the world." Wesley finished for her, as the song Lorne sang mentioned. "So we have the powers of everything in our hands, and the only two people who she trusts are…" Wesley looked over to Spike and Angel who were still talking. "Bonding."
"We need to get Angel to focus, and we need to figure out how to get Buffy to reverse the spell. I mean, it is nature for Angel and Spike to hate each other, and seeing them like this is… gross." Willow said, causing everyone to nod in agreement.
"I believe Buffy took an immediate liking to Angel and Spike is, well, despite being millions of years old, because the familiarity she had with them." Wesley said, sliding off his glasses. Willow perked up and was about to protest, but Wesley continued. "The intimate familiarity." Willow closed her mouth and sat back, knowing what Wesley had meant.
Angel walked up to the group, a smile on his face. Spike stood next to him, also grinning. Gunn stared at them both, ready to be sick. Angel spoke to the silence that all watched him, "So, what did we all come together for?"
"Um, Angel, we need you to tell Buffy to reverse the spell she did on you and Spike." Willow said carefully and slowly, not knowing what kind of response she would be getting back from Angel.
"Spell? What spell did the Slayer but on Peaches and me?" Spike asked, wondering why he was getting all the wide-eyes stared from the fang-gang, and Willow. Fred sighed and put her head down on the desk.
Angel frowned, understanding something was up. Everyone seemed a little angry at Spike and him, but Angel didn't understand why. He looked over at Buffy, who sat at his desk, pushing herself on the chair. She spun around and laughed, enjoying it. "Come on, you lot. Have some fun; there is no bad out that we have to deal with." Spike said, shrugging and pulling out a cigarette, lighting it.
Buffy perked up in the chair and sat on the desk, looking at them eagerly, smiling. "Spike wants you to have fun, so you will!" She smiled and everyone at once cried out, knowing Buffy was about to do a spell on them.
