sorry for my late!

Chapter 14

They were silent, in front of each other, never breaking eye contact. Buffy thought about the funny game she made when she was a kid, two people look at each other and the one who laughs first loses. She smiled at that thought.
Spike was lost in her eyes. He loved that young woman so much, every time she was in front of him he thought that. When they fought, when they argued, when they talked as two old friends, every time he just thought that he loved her. He had been loving her for ages, maybe more, she was the one he had always waited for, looked for, even before meeting her. She was in his thought every moment, he felt as if his heart was beating, he felt she was his, as if she had always been his, as if she was his soul mate..
Wait! He thought about what she had said before, he looked at the smile on her lips, and the time stopped.
It was almost as if everything was still, everyone kept silent, there was only a thought pounding in his mind, but he didn’t want to delude himself, he didn’t want to suffer anymore.

Spike: What does it mean, Slayer? That your beloved Angel didn’t come back to you?

He tried to speak with a very cold tone.

Buffy: Spike, you have always had the bad habit not to listen carefully to what people say.. It’s not Angel my soul mate.
Spike: Who is, then?

She smiled, getting closer to him.
Buffy: To begin with, he’s the most annoying person I know..

She was skimming his lips with hers.
Spike: I’m not annoying!
Buffy: Oh, you do are!

Spike smiled, getting closer to kiss her, he felt the happiest man on the Earth, well.. the vampire.. a thought crossed his mind, he stopped and parted from her.
Buffy followed him wither gaze as he sat on his armchair, looking at the floor, as he bore the weight of the world on his shoulder.

Spike: I’m sorry – Buffy kept staring at him dumbfounded – you find out who your soul mate is, but then you can’t find him. Maybe you forgot that, too, but I’m gonna spare you an awkward moment before it’s too late. I have no souls. I’m not the person whom your soul is in love with. I’m sorry, but don’t worry, we pretend we never had this speech, so you’ll forget the crazy thing you were about to do.

He kept his gaze low, waiting for her to hear his words and leave. She heard her coming closer to him, so he raised his head to look at her.
She was smiling, almost as if she was relieved, but then her face darkened and she began pacing around the room, getting closer and closer to the open door.

Buffy: No, I didn’t forget. I thought about that, too, and I haven’t found a solution to this problem yet. Yes, my soul loves yours, but you didn’t have it now.. so I don’t love you!

She stopped, her hand on the door, her back turned to him.
Spike felt as if he was dying.. again! He knew he shouldn’t have deluded himself, that little journey couldn’t change things. She resumed talking, enthused as if she was naked in front of a million of people, as if she was defenceless.

Buffy: This is when trouble begins! I am in love with you! Even before finding out this soul thing, maybe even before I realized that. I recognized you, soul or not soul, you are the same person whom I surely fell in love with in every life.

Spike raised his head. He had really heard those words, it wasn’t a dream. She told him she loved him. No other thought crossed his mind, just a felling: he was alive!

She turned and tilted her head to look at him. He smiled, he was smiling and crying at the same time.
He got up quietly and he got closer to her.
Spike: So, am I annoying?
Buffy: You are terribly unbearable- she said, losing the door behind her shoulders, this time she really wanted to see how it ended without any interruptions- and irascible, too!
Spike: Me? Irascible? Words coming from the one who stakes everyone who crosses her path just because they have longer teeth than yours!

As they talked they were closer again, and they moved around the room. Spike wrapped his arms around her waist and she wrapped hers around his neck. They talked , dance and got closer to the bed. If someone had seen him they would swear those two were dancing, but that was all they had always done, after all.

Spike: What? Presumptuous?
Buffy: Yes, you always act like ‘ Hey, here I go, I’m so breathtakingly gorgeous, bloody hell!’ – she said, trying to imitate his accent.
He smiled and locked his eyes with hers.
Spike: But it’s true!

They laughed, than Spike became serious and caressed her face, slowly and sweetly, as if he wanted to learn her features.
Spike: Besides, you love me, so from now on I also act like ‘I’m the happiest vampire in the whole world, bloody hell!’

Buffy laid him on his back and she leaned her arms on his chest, peppering it with kisses, as if she was drawing a trace. And then she stopped with her lips on his, softly.

Buffy: Do you know that in this life you haven’t kiss me yet? You know.. if maybe you also feel something for me.. you should show me that.

Spike smiled, and brought his hands from her back to her face, and kissed her in the sweetest way.
After an eternity Buffy pulled away, straddling him.
Buffy: So, you feel something for me.. Uhmm like a brother to his sister..- she teased him.
He pulled her to himself and this time he kissed with pure passion, a breathtaking kiss.
He pulled away to look at her.
Spike: I love you, I think I love you since always, if my heart could beat.. I guess it would explode.
Buffy: I believe it would beat with mine, and I’m gonna prove you that.

Spike looked at her dumbfounded as she took off his T-shirt and she took off hers, too, undoing her bra, looking at Spike pleased face. He was about to touch her, but she stopped him.

Buffy: Ah-ah. Later, now I wanna show you something.
She pushed her breasts against his chest and the simple contact made them both excited.
Spike: Is this a new kind of torture?
Buffy: Shh- she said, putting a finger on his lips- listen.

He closed his eyes and felt Buffy’s heart beating against his. It was a good sound, maybe a bit accelerated, but to Spike it was the best melody he had ever heard.
Spike: I feel your heart beat.
Buffy: What if it’s yours, instead? I also feel something beat against me, maybe it’s just because we are very close, but it doesn’t matter.

He closed his eyes again thinking about his previous feeling. He felt alive and now he also felt a heart beating in his chest, it wasn’t his, but she was right, it didn’t matter.
Buffy brought her lips to Spike’s.
Buffy: One heart will be enough for us.

She kissed him again, with more passion. Spike held her tight. They belonged to each other, nothing could tear them apart. He pulled her beneath him and kissed her neck.
Spike. Am I wrong, or we were in the middle of something?

They made love with all the passion they could muster. They were as two lovers who found each other after a long time. They loved each other without holding back, giving one to another totally.

The night left them, as they slept cuddled together, and the sunrise found them still hugged.
Buffy’s head was on Spike’s chest and she slowly woke up. Spike felt her move, so he held her more.
Spike : Good morning.
Buffy: it’s such a wonderful morning!
Spike: Buffy, will you tell me about what you saw in your past life?
Buffy: Sure, but get ready, it will be fun sometimes, if only you knew who was your best friend..
Spike: What about us? Any interesting tales?
Buffy: I don’t think so, I don’t know what ‘interesting’ means to you, but before tonight I have no memories about us making love.
Spike: So, we’ll have to find a remedy and create new ones- he said, kissing her.
Buffy: Just a thing. About my past life.. you promised you would stay with me or at least that you always would come back, that you would find me in every life. Do you wanna keep this promise again? – she asked awkwardly.

He raised her chin and kissed her with all his love.
Spike: Always. I would find you everywhere, no matter what. But I won’t promise that I’ll come back to you.. because I’m not going anywhere!

As they were close to each other once again, outside the night left its space o the daylight. The sun was rising on Sunnydale, and every soul had found its mate.
