Chapter 3
It was almost sunrise by the time she reached her destination. She walked through the graveyard passing rows of headstones. She knew she'd have some explaining to do to all of them, especially Riley. But right now none of it mattered to her as she stood out side a crypt…Spike's crypt. She knocked on the door and a few seconds later it flew open.
"Well well well…since when do you knock Slayer?" He asked with a grin and Buffy just stared at him. She hated when he called her Slayer.
Just then she realised that he was waiting for some form of explanation or an answer… she missed the old Spike, the one that didn't need explaining the one that just understood her…or well tried to anyway.
"Can I come in?" She asked softly and Spike stepped aside letting her in.
"So…what brings you here?" He tried to sound as casual as he could but ever since those dreams he couldn't get her out of his mind… And that incident at the Magic Box…. Spike just didn't know how to take that.
'It's a spell' he told himself so many times, but he really wanted to believe it was more than that.
"I uhh just wanted to talk to you…. I missed you" Buffy whispered hoping that he wouldn't hear the last part but he did.
"You mean you miss beating me up and then chaining me up in your watcher's bath tub?" He said with a low chuckle. But Buffy's reaction completely stunned him. Her eyes started watering and her face turned red.
She felt her cheeks burn no it wasn't from those memories after she was brought back to life…well maybe those too, but she was ashamed of how she treated him.
A memory flashed of her beating him up in the ally near the police station when he was trying to stop her from making a mistake. And another when he told her he loved her… she yelled at him and was so damn close to beating him up…again. And those two hurtful words that she told him…. 'Beneath you'…. she hurt him so many times, but he still tried to help even if it was in his evil twisted ways. He kept his promises better than anyone else did…all this because he loved her. But all she did was use him over and over and over again until he had enough and left only to return with a soul.
Maybe she didn't deserve him…. Her weakness caused him pain. She was weak compared to him. No, not physically…emotionally. She called him a thing incapable of any feelings so many times, when in reality she was the thing that was unable to admit her love, until it was too late…
Her thoughts brought her to tears…she has been blind for so long. But now she had the chance to correct it all…. to right the future wrongs.
"Slayer, will you bloody say something?" He asked, his voice sounded annoyed, but she knew better. She looked up at him and gave him a weak smile. And as she did all the annoyance and perhaps anger was gone.
"I uh…I don't know where to start" Buffy finally spoke. He didn't ask questions he didn't push he just stood there silently waiting for her to go on…when she was ready to do so.
"I'm sorry…for everything…. For hurting you…"
"Alright… it's not everyday that you hear a Slayer apologizing to you…. and I'm not complaining…but why are you apologizing?" He was confused now.
"Do you have any feelings for me?" The Slayer asked bluntly as she watched Spike. He looked like he was caught red handed. Slight surprise and shock followed by silence and his eyes studying the floor told her everything she needed to know.
"You once told me that I belonged with you… in the dark." She started. She saw Spike's eyebrow rise as if silently questioning her.
"You were wrong" Just as he thought he had a tiny chance…a possibility…. hell who was he kidding it was the Slayer. A stubborn girl who saw the world in black and white colours. He knew she'd never understand the whole love thing. For all she cared he was a thing unable to have any feelings apart from hate and anger.
She slowly got up from the chair but before she did she put an envelope on the small coffee table.
"You were wrong Spike," She repeated again. Spike let out a sigh…she was enjoying this, repeating the same sentence over again as if to see if he'd get a different reaction.
"You belong with me…. in the light" She whispered in his ear and then pressed her tender lips against his and with that she was gone…. into the light.
He just stood there not sure of anything anymore. A few minutes after standing like a statuehe walked to the table and picked up the envelope that Buffy left for him. He opened it and saw the ultimate gift that the Slayer could give him…the Gem of Amara.
