‘The Sunnydale Inn- An Hour Later’

“Buffy room service is here.” Spike called through the bathroom door.

“I’ll be out in a few minutes.” She called back.

“Okay.” Spike said before turning to face the room service boy and handing him a tip. “Here you go.”

“Thank you Sir.” The boy said as he took the tip. “Is there anything else I can get for you at this time?”

“No, this looks good.” Spike said overlooking the food tray. “Thanks.”

“Have a nice night.”

“You too.” Spike said as he closed the door and pushed the cart over to the small dinning table in the room near the couch.

“So, what did you order?” Buffy asked as she walked out of the bathroom her body wrapped in a small white towel and her hair damp.

“It’s kinda late so I thought. . .” Spike’s brain stopped working after he saw her in just the towel.

“You thought what?” Buffy asked.

“I. . .I um. . .I thought you’d like something light to eat.” e ste stuttered out.

Buffy walked closer to where Spike was standing a worried look on her face. “Are you alright?”

“I. . .You.” Spike said pointing between the two of them.

Buffy looked down at herself and pulled the towel tighter against her body. “Oh, this was all they had in the bathroom when I got out.”

“I think there’s a robe in the closet.” Spike stated.

“Thanks.” Buffy said as she walked over towards the closet and pulled out the robe and placed it on, pulling the towel out from underneath and tossing it back into the bathroom. “So, what’s for dinner?”

“Chicken Manicotti.” Spike replied as he placed the plates out on the table.

“Sounds good.” Buffy said as she walked to the table.

“Only one way to find out.” Spike said as he held a chair out for her. “What would you like to drink?”

“What are my options?” Buffy asked.

“Wine, Beer, Soda, or Water.” Spike called out as he looked in the mini-fridge.

Buffy thought about her options for a moment. “Waters good.” ‘Help me keep a clear head.’

“Alright.” Spike said a he grabbed a bottle of water for her and a soda for him, thinking the same thing she had. “Here you go.”

“Are you sure you’re okay?” Buffy asked as he took seat across from her.

Spike nodded his head. “Yeah, just a bit shocked when I saw you walk out is all.”

“Sorry.”

“Don’t be. It was a good kind of shocked.” Spike replied.

“Maybe we should eat.” Buffy said as she looked down at her plate.

“Right, eat. No need to talk.”

‘Spike’s Flat’

“It’s getting late. I should be heading home.” Giles said as he stood from one of the couches in the living room.

“You don’t have to.” Anne said as she stood up.

“You had a long day, you need some rest.”

“You sound just like William.” Anne said with a small smile before continuing to speak. “It’s my body, I think I can tell when I need rest and when I don’t.”

“Mother Mr. Giles is right. If William finds out I let you stay up this late he’ll be very cross with me.” Drusilla said as she walked out of her room and into the living room with the two grown ups.

“I won’t tell if you don’t.” Anne said as she looked at her daughter.

“You know that won’t work with William.” Drusilla stated.

Anne’s face turned more serious. “I doubt William even comes home tonight, he was very upset with the way I treated Buffy.”

“He knows you didn’t mean anything by it.” Drusilla said trying to make her mother feel better.

“Yes, William has always been very forgiving, just like his father.”

“I’m not as forgiving as you remember me to be.” Giles stated.

‘Yawn!’ “Maybe it is time for me to turn in.” Anne said all of the sudden feeling very tired.

“I’ll see you tomorrow.” Giles said as he gavee a e a hug.

“Not everything will look so dim in the morning.” She whispered before pulling away.

“I hope so.” Giles said with a sad smile. “Goodnight.”

“Goodnight Rupert.”

“Goodnight Drusilla.” Giles said as they walked to the front door.

“Goodnight Mr. Giles. It was nice to see you again.”

“You too. Take care of your mother.”

“I will.” Drusilla replied before shutting the door and locking it. “Come along Mother, lets get you to bed.”

“Coming.” Anne said as she stared at the closed door a moment longer.
