The hellmouth is closed and they've kinda won, so why is Buffy griefstricken? While traveling cross country, Buffy deals with losing Spike while gaining her chance at a "normal life".

AU fic from season 4. Our story takes place during "Harsh Light of Day" crossing over with "Beer Bad." Spike and Buffy come to an... understanding of sorts with the help of bewitched alcohol. Some spoilers, that is, if you've never seen the show before...

One shot. Takes place right after the opening scene of "Dead Things." You know--under the carpet with handcuffs, etc. Canon friendly. Rated R, kind of.

How exactly did Spike leave the bathroom? What words were said? How did Buffy end up on the floor, and how could Spike possibly leave his coat, and so forth? Well, here's my interpretation of that scene before the Xan Man comes barging in...

Spike-centric) NC-17. Three Spikecentric fics covering his journey into Europe with Dru and then onto Prague and what may have happened to Dru and culminating on a beach in South America with a strange meeting between Spike and a creepy woman. Please be warned this is not the Spike you maybe expecting, this first one is set pre the show starting and so he is very much with Dru and in love/lust with her and the following two are Spike/Dru orientated as well - final one has shades of Buffy in it though.

Spike arranges a Christmas surprise for Buffy after her mother's death, but gets a surprise of his own.

Buffy really should have seen a psychologist when she returned in season six, shouldn't she? General spoilers for season six, more specific for "Life Serial" and "Normal Again." Comedy, Buffy/Spike. Written for the LiveJournal Seasonal Spuffy community.

While under her Will Be Done spell, Willow just happened to say “I don’t care about anything,” and as a result, wanders blithely off as a vengeance demon. Spike and Buffy are left to protect a threatened Xander and a blind Giles while under the effect of a powerful love charm. But all is not happy in paradise – they’re still constantly fighting, and Angel is determined to end the spell they’re under. In a desperate attempt to collect the tattered remains of all their lives, ex-watcher Wesley Windham-Pryce is called in to try and play marriage counselor between the vampire and the slayer. Not entirely as crack fic or as fluffy as the premise would suggest, though it starts funny.

It’s Christmas Eve, and Buffy and Spike have been married all of two weeks, but the past, the present, and the future all seem bent on tearing them apart. Or maybe it’s not them. Maybe it’s just Buffy. A little holiday fic set in the same universe as my story Care, where Willow became a vengeance demon in Something Blue, and everyone else was just left to go along with the spells she left behind.

“Tell me how you’d kill me,” Buffy asked. Spike's breath came a little ragged, and he almost laughed. “Tell me,” she whispered as she sensuously nuzzled his throat, “or I’ll go.” Takes place near the end of their affair, just before As You Were.

“You can’t blame a girl, Spike. You’re all covered with her. I look at you... all I see is the slayer.”

There's much fun to be had in this Chosen/NFA fic. Starts off in Rome, moves to London, and eventually makes its way to the Ohio hellmouth. Buffy struggles to come to terms with who she is and what she wants in life. Meanwhile, all her friends are trying to do the same, except Spike. He knows exactly what he wants, and of course that's Buffy. There's also the mystery of missing slayers, arising key powers, an unexpected pregnancy, and a ghost to deal with.

The challenge was: What if Spike, rather than Riley, saved Buffy at the beginning of Fool For Love?
