Chapter 15: Make Me Forget Please

Saturday soared by with them enjoying a leisurely morning of making love and eating breakfast. It was nightfall and Buffy was lying in Spike's arms counting the stars. "Are they still the same stars in England? Will you get to see the same stars?"

Spike nodded, "They will just be in a little different section of the sky but should still be there. Buffy promise me, when you look up into the stars, you will think of me. Every night you will look out and think of me thinking of you."

Buffy nodded, "I wish you didn't have to leave in August. Right after your birthday too! I thought it was September 1st."

Spike frowned as he turned to look at her, "I have to start work on September 1st and to do that, I have to know what I'm doing. The advisers will spend three weeks in August teaching me everything they have learned over the last twenty or so years…"

Buffy frowned but nodded her understanding as she whispered, "Make love to me Spike. Make me yours."

Spike didn't have to be asked twice as he flipped her over so he was over her. He carefully untied the strings holding up her bikini and lowered the cups uncovering her breasts. He knew they would make love many more times before he left but he wanted to at least make her forget for a little while their impending separation.

He leaned down nibbling slightly on her breast while massaging the other and toying with her nipples. He knew she loved him to play with her breasts and that in itself would get her off but today, he wouldn't do that. Today would be all about them.

He nibbled on her breasts then down her rib cage to rest at her belly button. He tongued the hole as though he had found her entrance way and as he did that, he used his hands to lower her bikini bottoms down her waist and off of her completely.

Buffy's hands weren't idle as she had lowered his swim trunks off his lower body and tossed them on the pile of clothing that was in the corner of the boat. She giggled as she rolled over so she was on top using his erection to rub against her. Both of them moaned in pleasure as she did it again and again until both of them were drenched in her juices.

She lowered her head to nibble on his nipples until he growled rolling them over so he was on top again. He lowered his lips to her breasts resuming his teasing until she screamed out a plea, "Please, dear God, I need you!"

Spike nodded, as he didn't even warn her, slamming hard into her. She clutched onto his back so hard he knew there would be nail marks in the morning but didn't care as he repeated pulling all the way out of her to slam back in.

She was withering under him and matching his movements with grace and ease. Everything they did was perfectly in sync and their lovemaking was the same way. Each knew exactly what the other needed even before the other could often speak it out loud. Spike knew hard and fast would make both of them forget about their troubles and create such intense feelings that would be lost in them and it would help them to sleep releasing them.

He felt himself being flipped over as Buffy took over in charge. She rocked hard against him driving him further into her until he hit her cervix with each and every inward motion. Her breasts were moving above his face and he couldn't resist bringing his hands up to toy with them even as she threw her head back fighting against the pleasure he was causing. Sometimes such as today, their lovemaking was more of a battleground than a love fest.

After Buffy struggled to keep up the with the rhythm being so close to finding her release, Spike flipped them over one last time whispering near her ear, "Let go luv. I have you."

Buffy clung hard to him as he shuddered nearing his release as she found her. She screamed out into the night sky, "God Spike I love you so much!" as her body contorted into a powerful orgasm.

Buffy's inner muscles clamped down so hard on him that he was forced not to move but with her muscles contracting so strongly, as always, he found his release seconds later as the night sky was filled with his groan and a sharp growl as he shuddered in pleasure yelling out, "Bloody Hell Buffy I love you so bloody much."

He then lowered his mouth as their bodies shook together as he smothered her in kisses. She closed her eyes as her breathing returned to normal as she whispered, "Thank you for always knowing exactly what I need even when I don't."

Spike grinned placing a kiss on her nose rolling her over so she was next to him as she snuggled into the crock of his arm to rest her head on his chest. Crossing her leg over his she smiled, "I mean that."

Spike nodded and closed his eyes resting his head on his coat, which was rolled into a ball, "I know luv. Believe me I know."

There they slept without a care in the world enjoying the feel of each other's naked body up against them making them feel safe.

Well, as time often does, it continued to go by. The day for Senior prom came and the performance was similar to that of Buffy's junior prom. The duo spent their nights making love on Spike's boat and their days swimming in the water, and laughing about things that weren't funny.

The day of graduation was quickly approaching and Giles seemed happy about the couple. He wasn't really but knew time was ticking away when Spike would leave in August making their relationship impossible. Nothing lasted long distance especially when it was separated between an ocean and in a whole another country. It was just a crush and things would be better once he was gone. Giles was sure of that although Joyce wasn't.

Joyce insisted love could make it through everything and was constantly reminding her daughter of that. She was determined to give Spike and Buffy every chance to work especially if they were meant to be as she believed they were. She found Buffy looking at Spike and the way she looked at Giles and Spike looked at Buffy the way she had always dreamed Hank would look at her.

Hank never had though which is why he was able to run away with his secretary without a glance back towards them. Spike was so kind around Buffy. Sure the guy had gotten into a few fights at school but that was when someone was harming Buffy.

He had saved her life a few months ago when Buffy had been walking home late from Willow's house and had been almost jumped by two gang members. A night in jail with Jenny bailing him out hadn't helped Giles's opinion of him.

In Joyce's eyes, he was a hero but in Giles's he was only proving the point that he couldn't control his temper and would always be a troublemaker.

The day before graduation, Buffy lay in Spike's arms at Jenny's house as they made reservations for their plane trip together to England the first week of July. Sure it was the Fourth of July week but that meant nothing to England. She grinned as he printed out their tickets. They would arrive that Friday on July 1st and stay at her grandparents that weekend until Tuesday. Then on Tuesday they would travel to the winery, which was only 30 minutes away from Giles's parents' house surprisingly enough. From Tuesday until Friday, Buffy would stay with Spike at the winery and take tours with him, be introduced to the staff but during certain meetings, she couldn't be included as she wasn't a Pratt.

Buffy would always remind him, "Not yet' with a grin and Spike couldn't help feel proud she knew already she wanted to marry him. They had another year before he would even consider it. By then Buffy would be 18 and he would be 19 turning 20 and he would be already finished his freshmen year of college and Buffy would be starting her freshman year.

Buffy pointed to the ad for Buckingham Palace tours, "Can we do that? I've always wanted to see a castle up close and in person." Spike laughed and nodded as he clicked on the link. So far they had planned to visit Oxford since Spike was going there in the fall and Buffy had been accepted in early admittance for her freshmen year, Buckingham palace, the Tower of London, and to do the famous London Showboat Dinner Cruise which Buffy's grandparents would be joining them on.

Thanks to Spike's new ties, he had actually arranged for the Buckingham palace tour to end at teatime and for Buffy and her grandparents as well as himself to meet the Queen of England. He didn't want to tell her this as it was a surprise for them all. He was excited about it though. The last place they had planned to visit was London Zoo. He had remembered how much fun Buffy had at the little zoo in Sunnydale and London's was so much bigger.

He felt Buffy yawn and smiled at her, "Take a nap while I wrap this up. You can sleep while I email this itinerary over to the travel agent that my father had worked with and we will be all set and ready to go."

Buffy didn't fight it as she felt the blanket cover her up as she closed her eyes. She had been having nightmares lately about Spike meeting some hot chick in England at his father's winery and falling in love leaving Buffy in Sunnydale. So sleeping in his arms was the only time she got sleep and stayed asleep without the nightmares haunting her all night long.

Spike placed a gentle kiss on her forehead as he went to work on things he had to arrange before July 1st which was only a few days away. Sleep would have to come later for him.
