"What made you want to leave your wife?" Buffy asked Spike over a piece of bread.
"Dru?" William asked. When Buffy nodded, he continued, "We'll, I should start from the beginning…
I got married to her several years after you disappeared. She was from a rich family, that was soon to fall apart. Her mother died in child birth along with Drusilla's younger sister. Her father was getting old, and was on his death bed. They had no relatives, and he was afraid that if he died, who would get the right man for her. He needed to get his daughter married soon so that she wouldn't grow up as an old maid.
And there I was. Lonely and best of all, single. She didn't like me at first, she kept calling me a 'lost puppy'. But I was a ponce, I was infatuated with her when I first saw her. She was so beautiful and different. After we got married, I still was head over heels with her.
A few month's later, her father died. She loved him dearly. After he died, she went a little crazy. There wasn't a moment of the day when pixies, stars, daisies, or dolls didn't speak to her. She was always having conversations with them. They always told her secrets. She was crazy.
But I still loved her, and I knew I would, no matter what.
But later on during the marriage, I started to get theses ideas that she wasn't being faithful. She would disappear sometimes for hours, and she would come home tired and exhausted. And those ideas became facts when I caught her with one of my dear friends.
I had trusted Oz, all of my life. I would have done anything for him, and he would have done anything for me. Or so I thought. I came home after a business trip. He and her were on my bed, making love. But I was foolish. I forgave her, and then I kicked Oz out of our life. I haven't seen him in six years. No one has.
We went on with life, did everything normal couples do. She got pregnant a few months ago. Then the 'daisies' told her that our child was a spawn of the devil. So she killed it. That's when I didn't like her anymore. She was a murderer and a slut. The child isn't mine. I know it. But I had enough, and here I am, with you."
"With me?" Buffy smiled, "I like that."
"It does have a nice ring to it, 'Buffy and I'." William said.
"Spike and Buffy." Buffy said. William looked at her.
"Spike? Where'd that come from?" William asked.
"I don't know." Buffy blushed, she shrugged, "It just came out."
"Well I like it." William said.
"So, Spike…. Where are we going next?" She asked
"Oxford." Spike said.
"And on to Oxford." Buffy smiled.
