Chapter three: Soul-mates
Buffy and Darren staggered clumsily out of the elevator and into the hallway. They had been drinking all night and Darren had bought Buffy another four tequila shots and two large screwdrivers before she suggested that they head back to her apartment. Darren placed sloppy, wet kisses on her neck as she fumbled with her keys and unlocked the door.
The door opened, and the two of them stumbled into her apartment before Darren closed the door by kicking it shut with his leg, as his hands were too busy groping Buffy. They were so engrossed in each other's drunken advances that neither of them heard Dawn Summers clearing her throat. The teenager tried this approach one more time before eventually giving up and yelling her sister's name at the top of her lungs,
"Buffy!" The older sibling put her palm on Darren's chest and pushed him away,
"Dawn! What have I told you abou…" Buffy stopped in mid sentence and covered her mouth with her hand when she saw the other presence in the room, standing there and looking mightily pissed off. There was a long silence, where only Buffy's heavy breathing could be heard. She looked across at Dawn who just nodded, and she knew he was real. It was really him. Her Spike had come home to her. Nobody knew what to say, and Buffy realised that she was still in Darren's arms. With a sound that stated pure disgust, Buffy broke away from him and signalled for him to leave. He took the hint and stormed angrily away, slamming the door behind him.
There was a few more seconds of silence before Buffy walked slowly up to Spike and wrapped her arms around his neck before meeting his lips with hers in a slow, tender kiss. Dawn suddenly became very interested in the pans that were hanging above the oven as the kiss continued and Buffy opened her mouth and moaned into his. She became confused as she tried to deepen the kiss and he pulled away from her, a look of…was that anger, on his handsome features. She frowned in confusion,
"What's the matter? Aren't you happy to see me?" Spike unwrapped Buffy's arms from around his neck,
"You have a boyfriend, and you're drunk" Dawn took this as her que to go into her bedroom and leave the slayer and vampire alone.
"I'm not that drunk, and what are you talking about Spike? I don't have a boyfriend" Spike raised an eyebrow,
"Oh so I just hallucinated that guy you were with just now" Buffy gasped, she had forgotten about Darren,
"Oh my God, Spike I am so sorry you had to see that but he's not my boyfriend" Spike looked confused,
"I don't understand Buffy, because were I was standing it looked like you two were gonna…oh"
"Oh what?"
"Oh, I understand perfectly now."
"What?"
"You do this often do you? Go out, get drunk and sleep with some random guy?" Buffy felt tears begin to sting her eyes. She couldn't look at him, how could she explain to him that in the ten months without him by her side she had been doing exactly that at least three times a week? Oh God! He was gonna leave her, she had messed up and the love of her life was gonna walk out of her life for good. She realised that she had to say something,
"Spike…listen to me. It's been so hard living my life without you…"
"Oh don't give me that tortured act…" he was getting really angry now, she could tell, "…I came back to you but now I'm not so sure that I want to have the local slut as my girlfriend" Tears were streaming down Buffy's face now,
"Spike, please…"
"I'm gonna go" Buffy reached out and grabbed the lapels of his duster,
"Please don't leave me!" he shrugged her off and walked quickly out of the apartment, not bothering to close the door behind him. Buffy just stood, numb, in the kitchen for a couple of seconds before collapsing to her knees in tears. Dawn rushed out of her bedroom and knelt down beside her,
"Buffy, I heard" the slayer looked up, mascara streaming down her face in black streaks,
"He left me… and I don't think he's coming back Dawn. Oh God! I don't think I can lose him Dawnie, not again"
"He will Buffy, he loves you" Buffy shook her head,
"No he doesn't, not anymore…he hates me"
"Buffy. Spike doesn't hate you. He worships the very ground you walk on…he's shocked that's all"
"You think so?"
"I know so, Buffy this time tomorrow you and Spike will be the happiest couple in California" This made Buffy smile a little.

The next day, Dawn was up first as usual. She had been thinking of ways to make Spike come back to Buffy sooner rather than later and had remembered that he had given her his cell phone number whilst they had chatted earlier. Not bothering whether he was awake or not, she dialled the number on her own cell and waited for his reply. It came after a couple of rings,
"'ello?" Dawn frowned, he sounded ill,
"Hey Spike, it's Dawn."
"Oh Hey Nibblet"
"You sound weird, what's going on?"
"Nothing much, just got a wicked hangover is all" Dawn's eyes widened, God! That guy had some nerve,
"So you're telling me you got drunk last night"
"Yeah but…"
"You got drunk after yelling at Buffy about her crappy lifestyle"
"Um…yeah"
"Spike, you and my sister are soul mates. Get your skinny ass down here right now and make up with her…she is distraught!"
"Daylight"
"Get an umbrella" she hung up just as Buffy was dragging herself out of her bedroom. Her eyes were red and puffy; she had been crying again.
"Hey sweetie, you okay?"
"I didn't sleep well last night, Dawn what if he doesn't come back?" Dawn smiled,
"Oh, he will"
"I just love him so much y'know?" Dawn nodded and pulled out one of the kitchen chairs for Buffy to sit on,
"I know you do"
Hours passed. Dawn had gone out with Rory, leaving Buffy at home. It was just coming up for seven and the slayer had only just changed out of her pyjamas. She was just about to go and pour herself a little drink to help ease the pain when a knock on the door made her jump. Sighing, she walked up to answer it and looked down at the floor when she saw who it was.
"Spike" she gasped, the vampire was stood there with a black umbrella in his hand, "Do you want to come in or are just popping round to say goodbye?" Spike didn't say anything, just took her into his arms and hugged her tightly before pulling back to look into her emerald eyes,
"I'm here to stay…if you still want me to. After the way I behaved…" she cut him off by pressing her lips to his,
"Of course I want you to stay…I love you" he smiled and she saw tears forming in his sapphire orbs,
"You really do?"
"I really, really do. Spike, please don't leave me ever" He shook his head and kissed her again, deeper this time and their tongues danced together. Buffy's arms wrapped around his neck and toyed with his platinum hair and his hands roamed their way from her waist to her ass, squeezing it gently. The kiss was broken when Buffy needed to breath and they looked deep into each other's eyes again,
"Dawn's not gonna be home for hours…" she whispered as she took his hand. They stood there for a moment before Buffy lead him slowly into her bedroom.
The couple sat on the double bed and their lips met again, Buffy took his hand and guided it to her right breast. She moaned into the kiss as his hand slipped under her skimpy top and he took his nipple in between his thumb and forefinger and rolled it as it hardened. They broke the kiss again to remove the top half of their clothing and Spike gazed in awe at her naked breasts. She smiled almost shyly but remained calm as he slowly lowered his head and took one of her rosy nipples into his mouth, sucking at it and teasing it with his expert tongue. She placed gentle kisses on his blonde head as she gasped and moaned with the sensations that were running through her body.
He broke away from her nipple and came up for another kiss before pulling her skirt down her smooth, tanned legs to reveal a small, black piece of material that passed as a thong. She kissed him passionately as she undid his belt buckle and unzipped his jeans, pulling them off him and throwing them somewhere else in the room. He did the same with her thong and the two didn't waste any time before they were completely all over each other, they found it difficult to get under the sheets on the bed without breaking the kiss but somehow managed the task.
Under the covers, both of them were tired of foreplay, they just wanted so much to make love. She rolled on top of him and there eyes met again for what seemed like an eternity before he slowly thrust into her soaking core. Neither of them thought that they would get the chance to make love to one another ever again, and tears began to silently fall down Buffy's face before Spike leaned in and gently kissed them away.
"Shh…pet don't cry, I'm here now" She kissed him lovingly as he thrust deeper inside her, making her scream as she climaxed.
"I love you" she whispered as she came back down from orgasm,
"I love you too" he smiled and his thrusts became faster, making her scream his name. Hearing his name on her lips thrilled Spike so much that he unintentionally vamped out, unable to switch back to his human visage he looked away from her as she climaxed for the second time. When she came back down she noticed what he was doing and began kissing tenderly the demonic bumps on his forehead, making him look at her again,
"Don't hide from me baby" she whispered, "I love you, all of you…even these" she gently kissed him on the lips and ran her tongue over his razor-sharp fangs, cutting her tongue a little on them.
Spike unconsciously sucked on the cut, tasting her coppery blood and staring into her green eyes with his golden ones. The taste of her blood and the way she was moaning as he sucked was too much, and he came as she climaxed for the third time.
As they both came back down, he was thankful that he was able to control himself enough to change back into his human visage, and he kissed her again. She broke the kiss and whispered,
"Stay inside me tonight" he nodded and she snuggled into his chest,
"I love you so much" Spike never got tired of hearing those words,
"I love you too pet"
Spike was the first to nod off, and, before she went to sleep Buffy knew that tomorrow she would start work towards becoming the Buffy that he fell in love with four years ago. With him by her side, she felt like she could do anything in the world.
