Feeling Finally Spilled: 1
by Spikes Queen
Spike entered the Summers house, tired from patrol. He needed to get away from Buffy and he beat the shit out of half the demon population in Sunnydale.

Dawn came into the kitchen. “Hey, you okay?” She asked.

“Yeah, isn’t it past your bedtime?” Spike asked, leaning against the door.

“Yeah, I was just waiting for you,” Dawn said, going over to him.

“You’re not gunna hit me are you?” Spike asked.

Dawn smiled. “That’s Buffy’s job,” she said, wrapping her arms around Spike’s waist.

Spike smiled and wrapped his arms around her.

“I don’t want us to be on bad terms,” Dawn said, into his chest.

“Me neither,” Spike said, stroking her hair.

Dawn pulled away and smiled. “I love you, Spike,” she whispered.

“I love you too, Dawn,” Spike said, pushing the hair out of her face.

“Good night Spike,” she said, going toward the stairs.

“Good night Nibblet,” Spike said, smiling.

Dawn turned and smiled at him, before going upstairs.

Spike shook his head and went downstairs. He didn’t expect to see Buffy in the basement however. “Slayer, I really don’t wanna talk to you right now,” Spike said, sighing as he went around her.

“I have things to say to you,” she said, looking at him.

Spike spun to face her. “I think you’ve said enough,” he said, calmly.

“Look I didn’t mean to say that stuff to you,” she said.

“No big deal,” Spike said, in a voice that Buffy flinched at.

Spike sat as Buffy continued. “Spike, please don’t do this,” she pleaded.

“Don’t do what?” Spike growled.

“Please don push me away,” she whimpered.

Spike glared at her. “Buffy, I am not pushing you away. In the two years that I’ve loved you, I have never pushed you away. You pushed me away. All I did was love you and tried to get close to you. Anytime someone wants to be close to you, you pushed them away. Not just me,” Spike growled, his eyes flashing at her.

“Why do you think I pushed you away,” Buffy cried. “I was afraid that you were gunna hurt me. I didn’t want you to leave me. And then you did and I felt my world crumble,” Buffy screamed at him as tears flowed down her cheeks.

Spike got up with a sudden softness in his eyes. He went toward her and without even thinking, he enveloped her in his arms. “I’m sorry I snapped at you, Pet,” he said, running his hands over her hair.

Buffy sniffled and buried her face in his chest. Her arms went around his waist. “Oh god, Spike. I didn’t mean to yell at you. I just.. I’m just so scared,” she whimpered.

Spike scooped her up in his arms and sat on the cot with her in his arms. “Shhh… Pet. It’ll be okay,” he whispered.

Buffy put her hands on his shoulder as she cried. “I don’t wanna lose you again,” she whimpered.

“You wont. Not if I can help it,” Spike whispered.

Then the lights went out and screams came from upstairs.
