hey there, so I've been thinking about this fic lately that I read a long time ago. I only remember one scene though....and it's kind of vague: Spike had been beat up really badly, and somehow he's in the back of a van (or some type of vehicle) and I think Xander and Giles are with him? I think Spike had been trying to prove he was good and only wanted to protect Buffy.... in this scene, when Giles sees how beat up Spike is, Giles is amazed and realizes then that Spike honestly doesn't want to cause them any harm. |
