"You ok?" Willow asked, kneeling beside him and rubbing has back as he wiped his mouth.

"I just…she was...she had his...in her mouth...and I don't even remember her. I don't feel like there is anything between us... I remember you. And so help me god, I still want you...."

Willow felt tears stinging her eyes. "I know...it's wrong but...."

"Giles who could do this? Who has this much power?" Tara asked softly.

"Don't know that do I?" He questioned sullenly. ‘Best bloody blow of my life and she turns out to be someone else's fiancée. Bloody hell.’

"We have to think of something..."

"Where the hell is my son and his girlfriend?" Giles asked irritably. "Y."Y..you...your son?" Tara asked.

"Yes, tall, blonde, though I doubt it was natural, blue eyes his girlfriend's name was Joan?" Anya piped up.

"Spike? Spike was here too? With Buffy?" Tara was trying to make sense of all of the information clawing it's way into her brain.

"Who's Buffy?" Anya questioned. ‘Why couldn’t you have found them first. I didn't get to have my orgasm yet.’

"She's the one who named herself Joan..." Tara whispered. "Where did they go?"

"To try to find something to help us regain our memories...."

"Alexander, w...what we feeling isn't real, we are both with other people. We just need to go out there and figure it out."

"Ok Willow. Lead the way." He said as she helped him to his feet.

"First we have to find Buffy and Spike." Tara spoke first.

"Then what? She didn't even know her own name...how is she gonna help us?" Anya asked.

"Willow...let's try a locator spell..."

’Joan lay there for a few moments, eyes closed, heart thundering in her chest. She wanted to ask him, wanted to know so badly that it was keeping her from sleep. Making up her mind she sighed and then asked her question. "You want that? Really? Babies and marriage? With me?" Tilting her head up she glanced at his face.

"Yeah, Feels like it's the only thing I do want." He murmured stroking her face softly and looking into her eyes.

Spike wrapped his arm around her and Buffy moved as close to him as she could get they both closed their eyes and let sleep claim them.

’What the hell is he doing outside of the hotel?’ Ethan wondered. ‘He shouldn't know who I am.’ He closed his eyes. "Damn it Ripper, need more convincing do you?." He growled as he pulled on his familiar cloak.

”There. They must be in that hotel." Willow said excitedly looking at the map.

"Ok Honey, let's go and see if they're registered." Tara walked up to the desk. "Excuse me?" She called out the girl on the phone.

"Oh. Hi what can I do for you?" Sarah asked.

"We're looking for our friends...A couple. He is tall, bleach blonde hair..."

"Piercing blue eyes and a killer smile?" She smiled softly.

Tara nodded back.

"They're in the honeymoon suite." She nodded in the right direction.

“Honeymoon? You don’t think they…they couldn’t have gotten married could they?” Willow asked. “That’s so romantic…”

"Who the bloody hell is that?" Spike growled opening one eye.

"Donno. Don't care." She murmured running the palm of her hand over his chiseled abs.

‘Love you so much.’

’Love you too.’

"Since someone woke us up anyway..." He murmured seductively leaning towards her.

"Yeah..." He tilted her head up to accept his lips. Spike's tongue caressed hers and she let out a throaty moan.

Buffy reached down to take his hardened length into his hand. "Ohhh" He moaned into her mouth.

A loud banging on the door yet again had Spike growling softly.

‘Just ignore it.’

Spike let his hand roam over her breast feeling her nipple harden under his touch.

"Buffy? Buffy....please..." They heard someone calling through the door.

"Son...are you in there? Open the door..." Giles shouted.

"What the hell is my Da doing here?" Spike growled. He quickly pulled his jeans up and ran to the door. "What's wrong?" He asked as soon as he opened the door. Spike inhaled deeply. The overpowering stench of fear was coming from down the hallway.

‘How the bloody hell do I know what fear smells like?’ He wondered as he inhaled again.

‘What is it?’ Buffy wondered silently.

‘Strange Luv. I can smell fear, coming from down the hall.’ <

’Keep them by the door. I'm getting dressed. We have to find out what is going on.’

’Ok.’ Spike turned to Giles. "What are you doing here?" He asked again. He could tell it wasn't coming from the people in front of him.

"I...I think someone used magic...to erase all of you guys memories." Tara spoke softly.

Buffy walked up and laced her fingers with Spike's. ‘I can't smell it. Where's it coming from?’

Spike pushed past the group in front of the door and followed the scent. He stopped in front of another door. The scoobies watched them silently. ‘Behind this door.’

Buffy knocked. ‘We'll see if someone comes to the door. If not we'll get in another way ok?’

’I'll follow you anywhere Luv.’

She smiled up at him and leaned forward to give him a chaste kiss. Turning her attention back to the door she tried the handle and found the door locked. She braced her shoulder against it and shoved. Hard. The door flew inwards and they stumbled inside.

The stunned scoobies stared at them with mouths wide open as ‘Joan’ came to the door and they strode past them stopping at a door down the hall. They watched their silent communication and were stunned when ‘Joan’ Pushed the door in and walked inside. All Except for Tara.

"Call your Dad." Buffy growled as she took in the sight before her.

"Da." Spike said as he stuck his head out the door. He could taste the fear it was so thick in this room.

Giles and the rest of the scoobies made their way into the room. "See. I told you. Magic." Tara said when she glanced at the table. "See the black stone there?" She pointed.

Spike could feel a presence in the room with them. He saw the girl that was pointing out the magical item's shift her eyes around the room as well. ‘She can feel it too. The magic girl. There's someone else in here.’

’Shut the door. And stand by it. I've got the window.’ Buffy commanded silently.

"So what do we do?" Giles asked.

"Break it. The stone breaks, all of your memories come back." Tara said softly.

Giles looked uncertain. He picked up the stone and placed it on the carpet. He glanced at Tara who was smiling encouragingly. Giles brought his heal down on the stone, crushing it.

Buffy sobbed as her memories filled her head. A harsh pain filled cry. ‘Why?’ She railed at the injustice of it all. ‘I was happy, and now it’s all been ripped away from me again.’ Spike gasped at her admission.

‘Happy with me?’ He wondered.

‘Ohgodohgod.’ She had forgotten that Spike could hear her thoughts.

She watched as he came towards her and turned frightened eyes on him. ‘WAIT. I can't just...’

Spike sighed sadly. ‘I just wanted to offer you comfort Luv, but I can see you don’t want that from me. Not in front of your friends.’ He turned with tears in his eyes and stalked towards the door fully intending to leave.

Spike bumped into something on his way there that stopped him dead in his tracks.
