Author's note: Okay, I've decided to put up another chapter just to see it going. I just realized that the first fic doesn't give much ground for you to decide if you like it or not. He he…
Just to set the record straight. Willow and Spike are together and Buffy hates it. Willow never turned gay. Spike did fall for Buffy at first but then Willow helped him through his loneliness. Is this explanation okay for you all?
OOoooOOoooOO
"So s'is it luv?"
"Yup"
The two looked up the large building in front of them. Spike looked suspiciously at the worn out hotel. "Is it stable?"
"Stable enough for them to work in" Willow answered with a grin. "Come on, lets go in"
"Whateva, luv," as he took her hand in his and walked towards the building. "The sooner we get this over with, the better". With that Willow just giggled at his attitude of indifference.
ooooo
Pieces of shredded paper lay on the floor. The tension and anger was building up. Million questions rose up and were left unanswered. 'How could she do this? Why? When did all this began?'
Thoughts ran through Buffy's mind as she recalled back on what the letter has said.
Buffy,
If you're reading this then you already know I've left. I know you don't understand why I'm doing this, but I don't expect you to. I love Spike and you can't change that fact. I know it's hard for you to except this but it's true. I can't live without him in my life. You pushed Spike away just as Oz pushed me. We found each other due to the absence of another and we're not going to let this chance go. You can't tear us apart, and if you try, we'll fight you. Don't bother searching for us. Tell the others goodbye for me okay?
You're old friend,
Willow
"How could she do this!" Buffy asked out loud. "How can she fall for him! It's just wrong!"
Buffy kept pacing her room. She can't get the picture of Willow, her best friend, together wit Spike, the guy who was obsessed with her. "He said he loved me!" Buffy yelled as she punched what ever was closes to her, which was her closet mirror.
She watched as it shattered. The pain throbbing at her hand went unnoticed to her. Her mind was elsewhere at the moment. She needed to do something, but what she didn't know. She needed Willow back, she needed Spike back. She needed them both back for things to be back to normal. As normal as it could get anyways.
Not long during her frustration a thought came to mind. 'Angel!' She thought. 'He would know how to find them', as that realization came through to her a smile finally replaced the frown she once wore. Angel would definitely help her find them; he would do anything for her. With that everything was decided, she'll go to L.A. and get Angel to help her find the so called love birds and drag them back.
As Buffy set's her mind in paying a visit to the Fang Gang in L.A. Willow and Spike was just about to face them.
There they stood at the doorway taking everything in. It has been a while since Willow came to visit but Spike had a major surprise look on his face. The interior of the hotel looked way better then he expected. Everything looked clean apart from a few mess on the front desk. Though it had the late 80's vibe going on, it still seemed like a cosy place to stay.
"May I help you?" A petite dark brunette noticing them as she came out of the office.
"Hi, is Angel or Cordelia around?" Willow answered her. "They're expecting us"
"Oh! Are you friends of theirs?" The girl perked up. When the two nodded the girl's smiled widened a bit more. "They should be up in a little while"
Not long after the words came out, voices were heard from the basement door. "I kicked your butt and you know it!"
"You didn't, I just made you think you did"
"Whatever," Cordelia retorted back as she opened the door to a puzzled Willow, a grinning Spike and a Cheery Fred.
"Willow! I thought you said you'll be arriving tomorrow"
"I know" Willow answered hesitantly, "but the traffic was better then I expected".
"Oh, well at least you made it here in one piece" Cordy stated Behind her Angel had one of his arms around her shoulders. He just inclined his acknowledgment to Willow and glared at Spike. Just as he eyed Spike, he noticed their joined hands.
Cordy too noticing their linked hands just arched an eyebrow at Willow. "Okay, since you're early why don't you help me get your rooms set while the boys here bring up the bags?"
Willow just looked up to Spike shyly.
Spike looked at his beloved's face and answered, "Jus' one room please, cheerleader" with a cheeky smile plastered onto his face.
"Okay then, I'll show Willow the room while you two" pointing at the two vampires, "bring the stuffs up".
Rushing over to take Willows hand and dragged her upstairs before the two men object. Willow just laughed along while trying to catch up with Cordy's pace.
"Do you think it's a good idea to leave them alone?"
"No worries" Cordy eyes sparkled with surpass laughter. "They should work on their problems, besides we need to talk"
Willow had a sinking feeling about the talk that she and Cordelia were going to have.
ooooo
"So what's with you and Willow?"
"Nothin' that is your business, poof" Spike replied as they headed towards his car.
"Whatever, I'm not the one running from Sunnydale" deciding to ignore the stupid nick name Spike just used.
"Aren't you?" a sheepish grin was shown on Spike's lips.
"I was" Angel glared, "Not anymore".
Spike just arched an eyebrow. "You mean with the cheerleader?"
Angel's eye shifted for second, but he wasn't going to tell the idiot of a vampire here about his love interest. If he isn't going to talk then why should he. "That is none of your business" he replied.
With that Spike laughed as he took one of Willow's bag in one hand and another in the other. 'This is turning out to be a very interesting visit' he thought to himself.
ooooo
"So you and Spike really are..?" The two ladies sat side by side on the bed in one of the bedrooms on the second floor.
"Yes, we're in love" Willow whispered.
"Wow!" Cordy replied enthusiastically, which made Willow smile a little.
"Thanks" Willow answered.
"So…" An expectant look was on Cordelia's face.
"So what?" Confused as to what Cordy was wanting.
"Details girl!" She relied as a matter of factly, "How did it happen and when? And why did you guys leave Sunnydale? Come on!" Cordy urged.
Willow laughed at the urgency in Cordy's voice for the need to gossip. "I don't know how or when it happened, it just did"
"Okay, then tell me why you need to leave Sunnydale?"
"Well it's kind of a long story" Willow tried to explain. "Well basically, Spiked was obsessed with Buffy back then. I don't exactly know what happened between them but all I know is that we fell in love."
Cordy rolled her eyes, "Sounds like Buffy"
"Yea, well anyways, I gave Buffy a night off seeing as she looked a bit off lately. That's when I found Spike sitting by one of the statue stone at the cemetery"
/Flashback/
The cold night was making her spine stiff. She can barely walk properly with the cold weather. "Why did I suggest this in first place again? Oh yea, Buff," She mumbled to herself. Just as she was passing by a huge angelic statue, a sudden rustling sound was heard on the other side of the statue. 'Great, I'm cold and I can barely move, and now I might have to fight a bad-y!' she thought sarcastically as she quietly sneaked around the statue.
What she found was definitely a demon but a miserable looking demon. He sitting on the ground and his back was propped against the statue. His face looked solemn and tired.
"Spike, what are you doing here?" Willow asked, genuinely concerned. Spike has been a harmless vampire ever since he had the chip implanted into his head. He still can hit other bad demons but he's harmless to the innocents, therefore he has joined the Scooby gang in a way.
"Huh?" Spike raised his eyes to the person who intruded his thoughts. "Oh, it's you Willow." He whispered and looked back down to the ground.
Willow was now really worried. He had called her Willow and not by the nick name he made up for her. She decided to sit by him and try to find out what was bothering him. She didn't know why she felt that she needed to comfort the vampire next to her but she just feel the need to. 'Maybe because he looked so broken' Willow wondered.
"What's wrong Spike? Anything I can help with?" Willow asked quietly.
"Huh? What," finally noticing that Willow was talking to him.
"I asked you if you were fine"
"Oh yea, as fine as a vampire could be"
"Really? Then why are you mopping here alone?" Willow asked forwardly.
"We all got problems red, notin' more, notin' less" Spike answered back, never raising his gaze from the ground.
"Okay, but I'll keep sitting here till you're ready to tell me what's wrong"
"Do what ever you want red, but I ain't gonna tell you netin'"
With that said, both of them sat side by side in the dark cold cemetery in silence. Hours passed but neither one spoke until Willow found Spike leaning towards her a little. She looked over and found him asleep. Willow giggled a little but she tried to be as quiet as possible. 'Great how am I going to get a heavy Spike back into a safe place before sunrise?' She asked herself. Magic was the only option open to her right now; she couldn't possibly drag Spike into his so-called home. With that she floated spike into the air and carried him back to his place.
- - - - - - - -
'Thump' Just as Willow laid Spike onto his bed he was woke up with a start.
"What the hell?" breathing heavily.
"Spike, what's wrong?"
Spike turned to his right and found Willow sitting on the edge of his bed with a concern frown marring her face. He couldn't think properly, he just reacted in instinct. He quickly reached out to Willow and crushed her into a hug. He needed comfort and he needed it now.
Willow was shock would have been an understatement. She was practically stunned. Just as the whole thing finally registered into her mind, she calmed down enough to respond to his need.
Willow stroked his back as his head was on her shoulder. While doing about her task, she found Spike shivering. That got her even more worried then before. 'What's wrong with him?'
When his turmoil of emotion has subsided he finally realizes what he was doing. With closed eyes, he slowly released Willow and backed away little by little. He took an unneeded breath and then he finally opens his eyes. What he said shocked him even more then what he did.
"Thank you"
Willow smiled a little at this. "No problem Spike, I'm here for comfort"
Spike smiled back at her and his pain eased a little. He couldn't explain what was going on but suddenly Willow's presence at the moment had eased his broken unbeating heart.
Willow looked to her watch and suddenly she jumped to life. "I need to go now, but I'll be back to check on you okay?"
"I'm fine, you don't have to"
"Oh no! I'll be back I just need to get home before they get worried" Willow assured.
Spike didn't feel like arguing just nodded, plus he thought having her around would be better for him. 'She might be able to help me' Spike thought as he watched Willow walked towards his door. Dread crept up into his chest but he knew Willow will keep true to her words. She'll come back, no matter what.
/End of flash back/
"From then, Spike and I have gotten close" Willow explained, "Everyone became suspicious but we didn't care. Not long after that something grew between us, something more then friendship and understanding. It was love." Willow finished with a wide smile on her face and sparkles in her eyes.
"Okay, that explains on how you guys got together but why leave Sunnydale?" Codelia asked curiously.
OOoooOOoooOO
