"Oi, what's this about, poof? I ain't got time for pouncing abou………WILLOW?" Spike looked at the woman in the chair across from the desk with surprise.
"SPIKE?" Willow got up and flung herself at a very shocked Spike.
They shared a long hug, both checking that the other was real, then backed away.
"I thought you were dead!!!" They both exclaimed.
All of a sudden Willow felt a tug on her pant leg and looked down.
"Mommy, who are all these people?"
"Well, Alicia" she said as she picked up her 4 year old. "This is Spike. Spike this is Alicia."
Spike reached out and shook the girls hand.
"Very nice to meet you, pet."
"This is your aunt Cordy" and they shook hands.
"Next is your uncle…" Willow turned to Gunn. "What should she call you uncle Gunn or uncle Charles?"
"Hello I am your uncle Gunn." Gunn took Alicia's hand and kissed it, Alicia giggled.
"This is your auntie Fred and uncle Wesley. And last but not least your uncle Lorne."
"Why is he in a costume mommy?"
"I'll tell you later sweetie." Willow tried to keep her cool and not giggle at the look of seriousness on her daughters face.
Everyone I need help. There are people after me for my power, they killed Alicia's father. She knows nothing about this. Can we keep it that way?
Willow spoke to everyone in their heads. They all gave a slight nod and started small talk. The important stuff would have to wait for later.
After about 2 hours of chit chat Willow looked over to the couch and saw that Alicia had fallen asleep and was using Spikes lap as a pillow.
Everyone but the 2 red heads and vampires had left for the night.
"Willow, do you have somewhere to stay?" Angel asked.
" To tell you the truth I hadn't really thought that far ahead." Willow said.
" You can stay with me love. I have an extra room you can have if you like?" Spike said softly so he didn't wake up Alicia.
"Well if you're sure. I mean I don't want to intrude or anything."
"Yes, I'm sure. Bloody Hell, Red, you have people after you and you're still thinking about others." Spike looked over at Angel and they shared a knowing look.
"Willow does anyone else know that you're here?" Angel at least needed to know that much.
"Oh goddess, I forgot to call and tell her I arrived… oh, yes, Angel there are only 2 people who know."
"So who are they?" Spike asked curiously.
"Angel can I use your phone? I will tell her to come here is that okay?"
"Sure, Willow, but I must agree with Spike. Who is it?"
"You'll see when she gets here, but don't worry you both know her."
Willow walked over to the phone and dialled a number.
"Hello, yes, yes…I'm here, I'm fine…. don't worry about me so much…. no she's with me…. some to Angel's…. yeah…. uhhuh…. see you then." She hung up. "She'll be here in 10 minutes." She said as she sat down on the couch beside Spike and her daughter.
10 minutes later…
The elevator door opened and a raven-haired woman stepped out. She followed the sound of voices to an office she presumed to be Angel's.
As she stepped into the doorway she saw Willow seated beside Spike with a sleeping Alicia between them and Angel across form them in a chair.
She took another step in and knocked on the door while thinking about the past 5 years.
She had been sent pictures and talked on the phone and Internet with Willow constantly and had visited just as frequently. Then Willow had felt something out of place with her magic. Some people had come after her and killed her husband.
'God, that was just last month.'
The 3 adults all looked up at the doorway and Willow jumped up. Willow and the woman hugged.
"Faith, thank-you for coming."
A/N ooo cliff hanger kinda… R&R please.
