Disclaimer. I own none of these, they all belong to joss the genius. well never mind I can dream about Spike/ James. They can't take them away from me.

Chapter four.

"I think " she said quietly, although her head was spinning and her voice loud. " We have to ..." she paused and Spike pulled away suddenly. They were still standing in the carpark where Riley had just left her. Her husband Riley , had driven round the corner and here she was in the arms of the man she had just told she loved. Way to go with the complications.

"Yeah maybe you're right" Spike said pacing in front of her. "Maybe we should just not do this, maybe if I walk away now and get that transfer then this really won't be a problem. You can just carry on with your little life and I'll" He paused well he would be destroyed,but fuck he was actually trying not to influence her one way or another. He might as well get on his knees and beg. "And I'll get on with mine. " He stopped pacing in front of her long enough to look briefly at the anguish in her face.

"I was gonna say we have to be very careful " She shook her head at him and walked away, cursing loudly under her breath, words he had never heard her use.

"Oh fuck" he said as he ran inside after her. He ran through the entrance straight into Andrew, who glared at him.

"Whatever you have done to her you'll have me to answer to " Spike wanted to laugh in his face, but the look of pure venom that Andrew had mustered made him stop short and regard Buffy's friend with new respect and despite himself and even though he shouldn't have said it he turned to Andrew.

"I love her man." He walked away , as he left Andrew in a gooey mess by the door.

Buffy moved with speed and she put herself straight back to work, in her department full of people. She spied Spike as he came round the corner, he nearly ran into Angel the department manager.

"Spike , just the man I wanted! I need you up on grocery." Spike opened his mouth to object but was shooed away by Angel's huge hands. He looked frantically at Buffy, but she did not return his glance.

"Buffy, my office!" Angel boomed as Spike walked off. Buffy raised her eyebrows, she knew she had to offer some kind of explanation.

"God " she muttered to herself.

Angel had his office door open, he motioned her to sit down and she closed the door."What the fuck is going on Buffy?" Buffy stared at this man in front of her, aware she was about to involve him in something that she shouldn't.

"Can I not tell you?" she pleaded and gave him what she hoped was her puppy dog look. Angel glared at her and she was undone as she looked into the eyes of her older brother.

"Fuck off, Buffy. Now tell me what's going on with you and peroxide boy?" Buffy smiled despite herself. She knew Angel and Spike were good mates outside of work.She sighed again and put her head in her hands. Immediately Angel scooted round the desk and tugged her into his large arms. Buffy felt the tears again and this time she surrendered to them , in her big brothers arms she was safe.

Spike finished up on grocery and tried to saunter past Buffy's ailse, panic set in as he realised she wasn't there.

"Where's Buffy?" he asked a passing Andrew.He motioned to the office. Spike looked up at Angels's closed door. "Fuck this" he muttered. Without knocking he opened the door , saw Buffy crying in Angel's arms and panic set in and he lurched forward and grabbed hold of Buffy.She looked up at him with tears falling down her face and his heart broke. He hugged her to him and he silently pleaded with Angel for some alone time. Angel shook his head and motioned for them to sit down as he closed the door.Sppike knew better than to argue. He sat on the small chair and pulled Buffy onto his lap, where she nuzzled into his neck. I am never going to get off this chair now he said to himself ,as his trousers were about to cut his circulation off.

Angel waited for Buffy's tears to subside and he watched them carefully, he sighed when he realised that this was never going to be just a works fling.

"So." he spoke finally. Buffy managed to lift her head from Spike's neck to look at her brother, but not before she nipped it. Spike shifted beneath her and she heard the groan at the back of his throat. Angel raised an eyebrow and Buffy sheepishly slid off Spike's lap and into the chair next to him. She glanced up at his face and she squeezed his hand. Spike smiled and held on tightly. Angel coughed from his chair, he knew with more than three hours to go he would get no work from these two."Look you two need to sort this out, whatever's going on you can't bring it into work. Go on," he waved his hand "I'll clear it." They both stood still clutching hands, Angel glared at them.

"Buffy you go outside to your car whilst I sort a few details out with blonde boy here" Buffy looked at Angel with panic, but she had no choice. She smiled weakly at Spike and closed the door behind her.

Angel loomed in front of Spike with all his brotherly instincts to protect showing on his face.

"You fuck around with her and you'll be shit under my shoes.Best mate or not"

"I love her" was all Spike said in his defence, Angel sighed and shook his head.

"An I wish you didn' . You know how ugly this could get" Spike nodded his head and rubbed his hand across his face."Dru gets hold of this and my little sister will be.."He paused because they both knew what would happen, didn't Spike have the marks to prove that? "You look after her or else." Was Angel really giving his blessing, he frowned at his friend.

"What about Riley?" He asked . Angel gritted his teeth.

"There is so something not right about that bloke " Spike stared for a moment and then reached out to hug his friend."Go on, " Angel dismissed " Sort this. " With that Spike was gone and running to the car park.A set of headlights flashed at him from the other side of the car park and he set off running. He opened the door and threw himself in.

"Your brother is..." His words were cut off by the sweetest kiss ever, as Buffy pulled at his lower lip and licked along the edge until he opened his mouth and she gained entrance.Spike found himself not breathing as she battled gently with his tongue, she held the back of his neck and caressed the soft area there. Spike let out a soft groan as his trousers became unbearable. He knew that as he pulled her towards him, winding his hands through her hair, that this would be their undoing. He did not want a quick shag in the staff carpark. As Buffy groaned he pulled away to breathe, still clutching at each other."Not like this," he panted and he kissed her forehead. Buffy whispered some incoherent words, but she started the engine. She turned to him and touched her fingers to his bottom lip.Spike groaned and gently kissed her fingers.

"I am so going to get some bigger trousers" They both laughed as Buffy drove off , they both knew that outside of each other there would be not much to laugh about. They had both taken the risk and now there was no going back.

A/N:

Just a quick thankyou to those of you who by reviewing have pushed me on to write another chater so quickly. The trouble is the story has already taken over.
