Friends

Alright, so I vaguely remember this fic that I read about a year or so ago. I think it started off at the beginning of Season 3 or the end of Season 2. I remember that Spike and Buffy somehow became friends and when Buffy finds out that Spike loves her, she's okay with it. It might go as far as Season 7 - or might be getting two fics confused here - but Spike doesn't die.

Any help is help. Thanks!

Halfway to Anywhere fits the description
Summary: What if Buffy had come to her sense earlier about Spike? What if they had in fact secretly been 'friends' since their truce in Becoming? How different would things have turned out? I know it's been done before but this is my spin on it.

Timeline: AU after Becoming part 2



I've always dug this story

Who is the author of Halfway to Anywhere please?
