Chapter 11

The next week flew by and Buffy felt like she had a permanent smile on her face. She hadn’t been so happy in her entire life and every time she looked at Spike she felt herself melt. They had spent everyday together just sitting talking or messing around throwing sand at each other. Life seemed so simple. So calm.

She watched in amusement as Spike splashed about in the sea getting bowled over by a wave. When he resurfaced spluttering madly she couldn’t help but let out a bellowing laugh that Spike heard. He looked at her with a mock offended look but it soon changed to a devilish look and Buffy almost fainted as he walked slowly towards her out of the ocean.

His hair was longer than when they had crashed and fell in wavy curls. It was no longer platinum blonde either it was more of a sandy colour with platinum tips. The water dripping off his body made her ache and she couldn’t help but lick her dry lips at the sight of his well tanned and unbelievably perfect body walking towards her with his eyes lit up with mischief.

He reached her and she stopped breathing not sure what he was going to do and she was shocked when he shook his body spraying her with the cold water. She squealed and shielded her face but she squealed even louder when his cold hands began tickling her bare belly. Her girly giggling had Spike groaning and he stared down at her with hunger in his eyes. When she noticed, her laughing stopped at she looked up at him too, unable to tear her eyes way.

He leant in and captured her lips. They were so soft and warm and he groaned when she poked at his lips with her tongue seeking entrance. After losing themselves in the kiss they both broke apart panting. He stared into her dazed eyes and smiled before capturing her lips once again.

This was as far as their physical relationship had gone and Spike intended to make the most of it. He lowered his body even closer to hers until he was blanketing her and her body was pressed into the sand.
She trailed kisses down his jaw and nibbled on a spot just below his Adams apple that she knew was a weak spot of his.
“Oh god Buffy, Stop.” he groaned his eyes tightly shut. Buffy pulled away and looked at him confused by why he wanted her to stop.

“You feel too good pet.” Spike whispered kissing her forehead and rolling to the side.
“Oh.”
“I mean…we aint ready for anything more and…well lets just say you affect me.” Spike grinned earning a shy smile from Buffy.
“Spike…?”

“Yeah luv?” Spike sighed blissfully. He was laying on a tropical beach, the sun was shinning down on him and he had the woman of his dreams laying next to him.
Could life honestly get any better?
“Will you stay with me tonight?”

I guess it could!

His eyes snapped open and he turned to stare at her.
“What?” Spike asked in wonder.
“Well I mean…Angel, Cordelia and Wesley share one…Fred, Gunn and Riley are in one Anya Giles Tara and O manage to fit into one and your with Xander and Willow…but I got the biggest one and no one shares it…I thought Willow and Xander might like the privacy and well we…” She stammered out looking at Spike expectantly.
“Hell yes pet.” Spike grinned swooping down for another kiss.


“And then she shut the door not realising I was still out there! I spent the entire night running around the campus butt naked with reindeer antlers on my head.” Xander retold his story with a mortified look on his face while the group all rolled on the floor crying laughing imaging a naked Xander running about.

“Fuck mate you’re a brave man!” Spike chuckled into Buffy’s hair.
They had all sat around to have dinner which tonight was wild boar and Buffy had quickly found her way to Spike’s lap with his arms wrapped around her. She had never felt this…comforted ever and she closed her eyes, savouring the moment. Spike’s warm body cradled hers comfortably and the heat from the fire bathed her skin keeping her warm. She felt herself begin to drift off listening to the happy voices drifting around her.

“Pet you wanna go to sleep?” Spike whispered in her ear noticing her eyes dropping almost shut. She nodded still not opening her eyes. Spike smiled and stood up cradling her practically sleeping body carefully in his arms.
“We’re gunna bed see you in the morning.” Spike announced before walking off, disappearing into Buffy’s hut.

The group all shared knowing looks but didn’t say anything all just continuing to eat their food.

Spike stared down at the sleeping Buffy with a soft smile on his lips. In sleep she looked even more innocent and beautiful. His stomach rolled at the thought of what she had been put through and he knew if he had gone through the crap she had he would probably be even more of a wreck than she was. Not only would he not trust people he probably would have locked himself away where no one could find him.

He stroked a fingertip gently up and down her cheek caressing the softness of her skin. She moaned in her sleep and Spike’s smile turned into a full out beaming grin. He placed a gentle kiss to her lips before pulling her so she lay partially on top of him, cradled against his chest and promptly fell asleep dreaming of the beauty in his arms.

Buffy woke up snug and warm. She so didn’t want to open her eyes right now so instead she burrowed her face even deeper into Spikes chest earning a chuckle form him. It was then that Buffy remembered last night and pulled her face back to look into Spikes. Spike could see the surprise there but wasn’t afraid. She wasn’t gunna run away this time and if she did he’d bloody well chase her down.

“Morning luv.” Spike smiled at her.
“Morning.” Buffy smiled back but Spike could tell she was a little nervous.
“What’s the matter luv?” Spike asked in concern.

“Nothing…just…I like this.” She smiled gesturing between them and Spike laughed at how sweet she was when she blushed. He kissed her and pulled back again.
“Yer I like this too.”

“What?” Buffy asked self consciously when she finally emerged from her hut and joined the five other girls who were sitting close to the waters edge. They all looked at her with smug looking grins on their faces and she rolled her eyes as Willow started whistling the wedding march.

“So…sleep well?” Fred smirked.
“I hope not! You should have had many orgasms.” Anya chimed in.
“Oooo we can have our own island wedding party!” Cordelia teased.

Buffy just shook her head and accepted all the teasing.
“Funny are we all finished now?” Buffy laughed as Anya faked a thoughtful look.

“Yeah we’re finished…how are things though? Are you two together now? Tara asked eagerly. Instead of getting her answer however the whole group shut up as they spotted Spike trotting over.
“Hey luv. Im gunna go get some fruit you want anything?” Spike asked Buffy.

“Nope im good thanks.” She smiled at him and blushing bright red when he kissed her on the lips before strolling off.
She looked back at the still silent group and sighed waiting for the next round of teasing to begin.

“Spike seriously! Where are you taking me?” Buffy whined trying desperately to see through the blind fold he had put over he eyes before leading her off.
“It’s a surprise.” Spike whispered in her ear causing a shiver to run down her spine.

Oh boy.

“Okay take it off.” Spike grinned.
Buffy ripped the blindfold off and stared at the sight before her. They were in a sort of clearing in the jungle. In front of her a blanket was laid out with plates piled high with fruit, fish and boar meat. A bottle of wine was sticking out of a bucket which Buffy assumed was filled with water and a crème candle burned in the middle of the blanket while around 10 other little red ones were littered through out the clearing.

“Oh my god Spike where the hell did you get that wine and the candles!” Buffy asked in wonder turning awe filed eyes to Spike.
“I’ll let you in on a secret I kind of kept a few things I found from the plane stored away. Nothing important just a few odds and ends I wanted. You like?” Spike asked hopefully.

“I love.” Buffy replied leaning up and kissing Spike happily. She melted into the kiss completely forgetting about the little picnic that was set out before her.
“I'm starved.” Buffy grinned plopping herself down and munching on a pineapple Spike had cut up. Spike just shook his head and joined her pouring the wine into a little plastic cup.

“Here you go luv. Cheers.” Spike smiled banging his cup with hers and quickly draining the cup grinning when he noticed she had done the same and was holding it out for a refill.
An hour passed before Spike remembered his little gift. He was so engrossed just sitting there talking to her it was unbelievable.

He had never been so interested in anyone in his life and her stories were amazing. Right from when she left her house to how she managed to travel the world.

“I got a present for you.” Spike smiled getting up and bending down behind a big boulder to Buffy’s right. She frowned at him questioningly and her face lit up when he revealed what was behind there.
A makeshift crutch.

“When the hell did you get that?” Buffy asked laughing as she stood to try out the handy gift.
“Well the whelps a carpenter aint he so I asked him to help me make it.” Spike shrugged. Her face was hidden from view by her hair and he frowned when he heard what sounded suspiciously like a sob. He brushed her hair behind her ear so he could get a better look at her face and frowned at the tears running down her face.

“Pet what’s the matter?” he asked worriedly.
“Nothing...its stupid…I just…I’ve never had a present before.” Buffy laughed at just how stupid she was being. It was a stick for Christ sake but it was so much more than that to her.
“Well everyone in your life was idiots because you deserve to be showered in gifts.” Spike smiled warmly looking into her wonder filled orbs.

“Spike…lets go back to the hut.” She whispered before using her crutch to hobble out of the clearing Spike following behind happily.
