Okay, it's been a while but I've been really busy and it's not likely to get better for a few weeks
White Avenger-Thanks for reassuring me about my apocalypse, glad to see you don't mind! I hope my update isn't too late for YOU!
Spuffyfan-1Great to have you reviewing, sorry I didn't review soon, hope you're still reading
FoxyRoxy514-Good to hear you like the Spuffy, someone emailed me and said they didn't! It's good to have you on board! I will continue to make this as Spuffy as I like
Zanet-you should get an account! I don't know why I'm lecturing you one thisâ€I just want the best for such a nice reviewer. Accounts are free and I had one for more than a year before I published anything because you get a favorite stories list to make and you can keep track of the stories you've reviewed! Glad to hear you enjoy the Spuffy, I enjoy writing it
I have included Spike and Dawn talking although I'm not very good at writing them, I was going to fix up the spelling and grammar errors in the other chapters but I thought people would appreciate an update more! Oh and sorry if my story is "so mushy it's unrealistic" but I write fanfic to show what I want to happen but I know never will, so you should probably stop reading because this story is fluffy and happy and above all Spuffy
"Okay who's doing Buffy and Spike wake-up duty" Dawn said bouncing into the living room. All eyes turned to Andrew.
"Turn around, touch the ground, bags not being it" Andrew yelled.
"Okay, look Dawn I'm a carpenter, the world needs me, I am SO not waking up Buffy and Spike" Xander spoke up.
"I have my whole life ahead of meâ€sorry" Dawn smiled
"I'm an educator, we're valued members of society" Robin raised his eyebrows as he questioned them "what's so bad about waking Buffy and Spike up anyway"
Faith laughed "well," she was cut off by Dawn before she could get any further
"Nothing, we were just playing aroundâ€you can go wake them up" Dawn spoke quickly
5 minute's later
"She threw a broken alarm clock at me"
"You got off easy" Faith smiled "B hates being woken up"
"Easy" Wood questioned "then she grabbed the doona and threw it over me, AND I had to see Spike naked"
"You saw Spike naked" Andrew asked admiringly "next time I'll wake them up"
A few moments later Buffy and Spike entered the room.
"Everybody listen up, we hit the air at 8:30, we have to be at the airport at 6:30 and it's 6 now, we don't have much time, we have two cars at our disposal. Wood you are driving whatever you came in; you're taking Faith, Xander and Andrew.
Willow, you'll have to take some luggage and myself in the mini that The Immortal gave me"
"Ummm...Okay one small problem, myself and the bit can't fly you know" Spike spoke up
"Make that two small problem's, my car won't fit Andrew AND our luggage" Wood said
"I have a plan love" Spike smiled "luckily, when I was in LA I had something sent over. Wood, Faith and Xander ride in his car with Andrew squished in a suitcase or something, you and Willow'll take the mini as long as red drives and the nibblet and I will take my car"
"Your car" Buffy groaned, piecing things together
"Wolfram and Hart had her removed before old Sunnyhell went kaboom, they thought it'd be a good incentive for me to work there" Spike smirked
"I hate that stupid car" Buffy sighed
"What sort of car have you got" Faith smiled "it must be a pretty hot set of wheels if it was saved from Sunny D and Buffy hates it "
"Spike loves that dumb car more than me" Buffy whined jokingly
"She's not dumb" Spike said defensively "and I don't love her more than you, I'd say you're equal" he smirked patronizingly
"And Faith, she's a De Soto"
Faith burst into laughter "a De Soto, I thought it'd be a bit flashier than that"
Before they could say anything Faith hit the floor
"Buffy" Faith looked up at her for affirmation
"You were asking for it starting on the car" Buffy giggled "Anyway, load up the cars, we meet at the airport"
Willow backed the car out of the driveway "manual" she groaned, "I can barely drive an automatic"
Buffy observed her friend as they drove, she looked happy enough, in fact she looked better than she'd seen her in a while
"How's Kennedy" Buffy questioned, trying to measure her reaction
Willow looked over at her "I don't actually know, to tell you the truth" Willow said, turning back to the road "I realized that she wasn't my type you know? She was fun for a while but I need someone a bit more grounded, Kennedy's nice but she's not"
"Tara" Buffy finished the sentence. Willow looked over at her and their eyes met, quickly changing the subject before she got teary Willow spoke to Buffy
"So, Spike eh?"
"Looks like it" Buffy smiled
"She knew you know, Tara, she told me you and Spike would end up together, she was like that, she could always tell how people really were, you couldn't lie to her" Willow looked at Buffy, she was looking down, it was obvious she was thinking about Tara, but even in this she didn't look as sad as she used to, in fact Willow didn't think she'd ever seen Buffy look better, she almost glowed. "Well, I can tell Spike makes you really happy and I'm glad" She said decisively as they fell into comfortable silence.
meanwhile in the De Soto
"God Dawn, don't pack too lightly. What if we're stuck there for ten years and you can only wear everything once" He said sarcastically, looking over his shoulder at the abundance of bright pink plastic suitcases
"Hey, it could happen" Dawn replied, then she grew serious "Spike, I really missed you and Buffy really, really missed you and I think even Giles and Xander missed you" she said this all in one breath before pausing "Well, maybe Xander and Giles not so much, but you sacrificed yourself for us and I just wanted to tell you that Buffy needs youâ€and I need you and I hope you and Buffy are really happy"
Spike smiled at her "I missed you too Bit" he said genuinely "so does this mean I don't have to watch out for methylated spirits and a match when I'm sleeping" he joked
Dawn blushed "yeah, sorry about that"
"I get it, it's okay, I love her too you know" Spike smiled and turned to the road
Okay, another chapter down, like twenty to go!
Thanks for reviewing, I want to make it to 50 for the next chapter, that's 7 whole reviews, but I'll settle for 5 Okay!
Well, that's kind of an empty threat, I'll update when I'm ready whether I have 10 reviews or none but I'd really like some and they WILL help me write quicker ;)
Hope this was ok, I can't wait to get your feedback on it and any suggestions. Thanks to all who reviewed, I mentioned you guys up the top
See you next chapter!
PS- sorry the chapter name is kinda lame, I could've done; cars and conversation but I've had conversation before... or traveling and talking but that sucks
