Get here



“Spike?“

“Yes, baby?“

“I need you.“

“I know. Need you, too.“

“Then come here.“

You can reach me by railway, you can reach me by trailway
You can reach me on an airplane, you can reach me with your mind
You can reach me by caravan, cross the desert like an Arab man


“I can’t, you know that.“

“But-“

I don't care how you get here, just - get here if you can
You can reach me by sail boat, climb a tree and swing rope to rope
Take a sled and slide down the slope, into these arms of mine
You can jump on a speedy colt, cross the border in a blaze of hope
I don't care how you get here, just - get here if you can


“No, I have to help him, I told you.“

“Yeah, but still...I miss you.“

There are hills and mountains between us
Always something to get over
If I had my way, surely you would be closer
I need you closer


“Thank you. Open the door.“

“What?“

“Your bloody door, open it.“

“Okay. Wait a sec.“

“Yeah.“

“Somebody left something.“

“I know. Open it.“

“Okay. Spike what is this?“

“My Medallion. Recognize it?“

“Aha, but why?“

You can windsurf into my life, take me up on a carpet ride
You can make it in a big balloon, but you better make it soon
You can reach me by caravan, cross the desert like an Arab man
I don't care how you get here, just - get here if you can


“I love you, don’t forget that.“

“I love you, too, you know that.“

“I know and I believe.“

“Thank you, so why do you send me this?“

“I never forgot how you told me...“

“Told you what?“

“That it’s for a champion.“

“It is.“

“The chosen one choose me...“

“As my champion and you are.“

“Don’t forget this.“

“Don’t – Spike! What’s up?“

“I love you.“

“Spike, you’re frightening me.“

“Don’t be, luv. I´ll make it all better.“

I don't care how you get here, just -- get here if - you can

“Then come home.“

“I will, someday I will.“

“Spike?“

“Bye, Buffy.“

“Spike, I-“

But the line was already dead.

“Okay, grandpa, I’m ready.“

“Let’s fight it – till our deaths.“

“For her.“


Song is “Get Here” by Oleta Adams

A/N: There is a sequel to the story, but it´s not exactly Buffy/Spike, although their relationship is mentioned. If anybody wants to read it: Get Here - The Other Side
