Chapter 10 - A Problem Shared

Spike ran in the house, Lucy draped in his arms. Laying her on the couch and letting a confused Giles through, he turned on Angel.

“What the fuck do you think you were doing you great poof. We told you to stay with her, if she doesn’t come round, god help you.” His blood was pumping heart racing. “What is it with you taking everything that I love eh? First Aimee, then Buffy, now Lucy, what is the bog problem with me actually being happy?” Angel was gob smacked, words escaped him.

“I’m sorry,” Spike went back over to Lucy, Giles was looking right at him, hurt in his eyes, “Giles I’m sorry I never meant to for this to happen.” Angel could see he wasn’t getting anywhere. He left, the door lightly banging behind him.

“You think she needs to go to the hospital?” Spike asked stroking the hair behind her ear.

“Probably would be a good idea, I’ll get my keys.” Giles stood but was stopped by Lucy’s hand on his arm.

“You bloody dare, I ain’t going to no fucking hospital, I’ll live.” she sat up groggily, rubbing the back of her head.

“You sure your ok?” Spike asked helping her up.

“I’ll live I told you that, I’m tougher than I look.” she smiled. “We get the bad guys?”

“Yeah we got em.” Buffy said coming closer, Spike’s words were still ringing in her ears. “You had us worried there.” she avoided Spike’s looks.

“Where did captain hair gel go? I need to thank him for getting me knocked out.”

“He left there was a few words said.” Buffy said lowering her head.

“Yes well, we can fill you in tomorrow right now I think you should go to bed.” Lucy tried to argue with her uncle. “Don’t argue with me young lady, it didn’t work when you were little and it certainly isn’t going to work now.” he helped his niece up as she saluted him. Waving goodnight he walked her upstairs.

Spike looked at Buffy with sadness in his eyes, before following Lucy up the stairs leaving Buffy alone. Her sister and Willow must have been in bed, looking at her watch she realised just how late it was. She was afraid to go up stairs and join her lover, she didn’t want to hurt him again. Why did he think Angel had taken her from him? She took a deep breath and followed, figuring it would be better to sort this out now rather than later.

She pushed the door open and saw Spike sat on the bed a tin box on his lap, tears seeping down his face. She sat next to him wondering how to start this conversation.

“Whose Aimee?” she asked looking at the floor.

“My sister, Angel killed her before I was turned. That’s why I was out the night I met Dru. I wanted revenge.” he said handing her the picture he was looking at.
“This her?” he nodded. “God she is the double of Lucy. This way she means so much to you?”

“Yeah, figure I could at least save Lucy, even if I couldn’t help Aimee.” he wiped the tears with the back of his hand. “I saw you with Angel before.”

“When?”

“Earlier, just after our fight. I went to blow off steam, Lucy found me knocked some sense into me so I came to find you. You were sat in here hugging.” the last words were hard to choke out.

“He was apologising. Wanted to tell me he was gonna leave the two of us alone.”

“You sure, he was pretty sure that you wanted him not me.” he still couldn’t look at her.

“I don’t want him, I want you, I love you Spike, with everything I have. He hasn’t taken me from you, didn’t even come close.” she grabbed his hand squeezing it tight.

“I love you too, he just seems to mess everything I have up, and I thought he had done it again.” he looked her dead in the eye this time, the tears still making the dazzling blue shine. “I meant what I said before Buffy, I want to marry you, grow old with you.”

“I want that too, just promise one thing?”

“What’s that?”

“No more secrets.” she smiled at him.

“I can do that.” he said pulling her close, kissing her. Their emotions pouring into one another.

He fell back taking her with him. Holding her tight as their mouths explored each other. He rolled over pinning her to the bed. His hands stroking every inch of her. Lifting her top off, he fondled her breasts, caressing each one, listening with a smile at each moan he managed to create from her. His hands crept down to her jeans, his fingers expertly popping the button open, slipping inside and flicking her clit.

Buffy began to move with each flick, her want growing with every movement. She decided that he was wearing to many clothes, and began fighting his t shirt off his back. Their hands explored each other, pulling pants off, laying naked with each other.

Spike positioned his self at her entrance, breaking the kiss he stared into her emerald eyes. “I love you Buffy Summers, we are gonna spend the rest of our lives together.” she pulled him down for a kiss, Spike sliding him self in, Buffy meeting him, riding the pleasure he was causing.

They moved together, their eyes locked. Spike’s hand snaked between finding her sensitive nub, rubbing it with every move. The pace quickened, both needing release, then almost with out warning it hit her. She screamed, pumping him bringing him with her. The ecstasy was bliss.

They held onto each other, snuggling up under the duvet. Spike stroked her hair as she started to drift off.

“I love you.” he said kissing the top of her head.

“I love you too” she held him tighter. “No more fighting ok, I don’t like not talking to you.”

“Yeah no more fighting love.”

“Leave Angel ok, I don’t think we need more aggravation, Lucy’s ok and we really need to concentrate on fighting Daniel, he seems to have been forgotten over the last few days.”

“I cant promise you that pet, but I will try, and Daniel will get what he deserves. That I can promise you.”

“We’ll win ok, he won’t take Lucy from you.”

“I know love I know. Now get some sleep, we got work to do tomorrow.”

He kissed her one more time before the exhaustion took them, and sleep hit.
