Chapter 3: Welcome to Sunny hell
"Hey Xand!" Buffy rushed forward to hug her old friend.
Spike lagged behind and as soon as Buffy pulled away he stuck out his hand, "I'm William, nice to meet you." Spike's rough accent and weird words were gone and replaced with a stuffy accent and sweet demeanor despite the hair and duster.
Buffy blinked at his transformation from rebel hottie British punk, to junior Giles.
Xander looked a little puzzled but shook his hand, "Xander."
"I've heard a lot about you from Buffy, nice to finally meet you in person."
Xander still looked a little lost, "Thanks."
Buffy looked around not seeing anyone else, "So…where's everyone?"
"So how long have you and William been going out?" Xander asked anxiously clapping his hands together trying to avoid Buffy's question.
Buffy and Spike glanced at each other quickly. "Two months, but don't change the subject, where are they?" Buffy demanded crossing her arms protectively across her chest.
"They were busy getting ready for the wedding, so they sent me" Xander explained not looking Buffy in the eye.
"Too busy to come get me?" Buffy asked quietly not really expecting an answer, hurt was written clearly all over her face.
"It's alright Luv" Spike said putting his arm around her waist. Buffy leaned into him feeling butterflies again in her stomach. Xander noticed the small gesture and cleared his throat to get their attention.
"Come on your mom's waiting for us back at the house." He said.
"I'll go get our luggage" Spike said leaving Buffy and Xander alone.
"Who is that creep?" Xander asked once Spike was out of earshot
"HEY!" Buffy exclaimed "He's my boyfriend Xander." 'Or at least for the week' she mentally added.
"Sorry Buff" Xander quickly apologized.
"So what's new?" Buffy asked him.
"Besides Dawnie getting married to your ex fiance, not too much." He replied nonchalantly making Buffy laugh.
Spike watched as Buffy's angry facial expression was quickly changed into a laughing one.
'I wonder what the whelp said to her' Spike thought feeling oddly possessive of her. As much as he hated to admit it, he liked her… a lot. Picking up their suitcases he slowly made his way back to them 'She's mine for a week' he thought 'And she's paying for it' his conscience was quick to add, shaking his head he realized he had almost collided right into Xander.
"Sorry mate" Spike quickly apologized. "Wasn't watching where I was going"
Buffy looked at him her mouth slightly ajar.
'What happened to the fire in him? I liked that' Buffy thought following the guys towards the parking lot. Buffy sat in the back seat along side Spike, who reached unconsciously for her hand. Buffy's eyes stared at their hands for a few moments, until Spike interrupted her thoughts.
"Is something wrong Luv?"
"Huh? What? No." She replied pulling her hand away Spike smirked at her and she blushed. He leaned over and whispered in her ear, 'You're bloody cute when you blush." Which caused her to blush even more. Xander looked at them in the rear view mirror and raised one eyebrow but all he got was smiles….
XxXxX
"Hi mom" Buffy said hugging her.
"Hey honey, who's your boyfriend?" she asked looking him up and down.
"This is William" She said hooking her hand around his elbow lovingly.
"Nice to meet you Ma'am" Spike said holding out his hand.
"Psh! None of this ma'am stuff call me Joyce." She said pulling him into a hug making Buffy smile gently at the sight.
"Let's get you into your room" Joyce said walking up the stairs "I figured you two would want a room together.' She said at the top of the stairs.
"It's two doors down on your right." She told them pointedly.
"Ok thanks mom" Buffy said picking up her bag and giving her mom another small hug.
"Come on Will" Buffy said teasingly pulling him towards the bedroom.
Once they were inside the room Buffy laid down on the bed and sighed and was about to close her eyes when she realize Spike was about to lay down too. Not entirely sure what to do, Buffy rolled over and let him lay next to her. Since the bed was only a queen size bed they were touching when Spike laid down.
"Spike?" Buffy said quietly a few moments later.
"Mhm" He murmured since he was almost asleep.
"What do you thinks gonna happen?" Buffy asked softly.
"What do you mean pet?"
"I mean, my sister is a spoiled bitch and my ex-fiancé is going to be here."
"Don't worry about it Luv, let me handle making your ex, and sister for that matter completely jealous" he said gently pulling her over to him. "And you are going to enjoy every bloody second of it….."
