chapter 26

They lay there wrapped up in one another before Spike plucked up the courage to speak to her, “Buffy, I think you should know where I was today?” he shifted uncomfortably as she sat up and stared at him.

“The thing is pet, I know you and Da have been expecting me to go back to school and I have been telling you it was going to happen but I was actually left” she gasped and went to talk but he silenced her placing his finger against her lips.



“There was a lot of things I didn’t want to deal with and so I packed up and came here, I never expected to meet you Buffy and truth be told I wasn’t looking, then when I did meet you I didn’t want to go back, seeing you over the last few weeks getting more excited about dance school made me realise im going to lose you soon and so I went to LA to see if I could carry on studying there” he let out a sigh of relief when he had finished and watched her staring at him, “Buffy?”



She let a single tear trail down her face as she raised a hand to his outlining his jaw, “Spike, you wont lose me, I may be going to school but it wont make me stop loving you and I am so glad you have decided to keep up with your studies, and in light of this I think we should come clean to my mom and Giles” he leaned forward capturing her lips with his lightly and pulled her into his arms “Come on the luv, lets go break the news”



Standing underneath stars in Buffy’s front garden she breathed deeply and tightened her grip on Spikes arm, he traced soothing circles on the bottom of her back as he hugged her and told her it would be fine. Making their way hand in hand through the front door they froze at the sight they were greeted with in the living room.



“Mom?”



“Da?”



The older couple broke apart and had the decency to look embarrassed as Joyce fastened the buttons on her blouse and Giles re-adjusted his clothing,

“Buffy, Spike? I ….. Um what are you doing here?”



“What are we doing here, I think we should be asking you that” Buffy folded her arms and gestured to the couch where the white lace of her moms bra was laying on the cushion, grabbing the object from the couch she turned back to her daughter, “I apologise that you had to find out about this the way you did but I am an adult Buffy and what I do in my own house is my business” she pushed past the blonde couple in to the kitchen and started to boil water, “Now if everyone would like to sit down we will discuss this situation like adults and the why in the hell you two are holding hands”



Buffy and Spike looked down at her comment and let each other go as they realised they were still clinging to one another, making their way over the couch they looked at each other in silent question and then decided to sit together.

They both looked up as Joyce entered the room with a tray full of tea and set it on the table, “Now where do we start, with me and Rupert or you and Spike?”



“The thing is mom, Spike and I never really broke up. I overheard you and Giles discussing splitting us up at dinner that night so we decided to let you think we had split, I know it probably wasn’t the most mature or the right thing to do but it was the only way we could see”



“Buffy?”



“No mom, let me finish, I know it wasn’t the right thing to do but it doesn’t matter any more, I have the audition tomorrow and…..”



“And I go back to school next week” Spike grabbed hold of her hand and tried to miss the look of horror on Buffy’s face.



“NEXT WEEK???”



Spike silently cursed himself as she got up from the couch and ran through the front door, he took off after her ignoring the questions from both their parents. After travelling through the streets of sunnydale he eventually found her sitting by their tree in Weatherly park.



“Luv?” he sat down next to her being careful about startling her too much. He noticed her wipe away tears as she turned away from him.



“Why didn’t you tell me it was so soon?” she wrapped her arms around herself and rested her chin on his shoulder taking comfort in his nearness. He instinctively put his arm around her and pulled her to his side kissing her head.



“I’m sorry sweetheart but I didn’t want to upset you, I know im a pillock but we were having a perfect evening and I didn’t want to ruin it for you” he gripped her tighter and rocked her slowly until her crying ceased. “I’m really sorry Buffy, I didn’t mean to hurt you” he inhaled the scent from her hair and relaxed slightly as he felt her stroke his hand.



“I know you didn’t baby, I was just a bit shocked, I didn’t mean to run off like that, was mom mad?”

He chuckled deep in his chest and it made Buffy smile, before she had chance to ask what was funny he pulled her toward him and kissed her hard, “I have no clue luv, they are probably shagging as we speak while they have the house to themselves again” he laughed again as she screwed up her nose,



“Eww, gross Spike”.
