    Summary

    Buffy saw Spike die in Sunnydale. Wolfram & Hart brought him back.

    Now Buffy is in Rome rebuilding the Council, and Spike is inside the law firm as its most dangerous loose end — and the Council’s most compromised spy. Every message he sends could save a Slayer or spring a trap. Every message risks exposing them both, but also draws them back towards each other as they uncover what Wolfram & Hart has planned for a world full of Slayers.

    Post-“Chosen” / AtS Season 5 AU. Death couldn’t keep Buffy and Spike apart. Wolfram & Hart might.

    Summary

    “Buffy?”
    He almost never used to call her Buffy. Did he? Always Slayer, or pet, or love. Or like, he’d use her name, but it always sounded odd, in his mouth. All tender, touchy. Like, like he was making eye contact with her, just by saying it.

    "Spike."
    She wonders if it feels the same, for him. His name, her tongue.

    -
    (Or: Spike’s gone, and Buffy doesn’t care. No, really, she doesn’t. Cross her heart.)

    Summary

    “I could kill you, I think.” Buffy giggles sleepily as a response. He glares at her. “I could , you mean, mean , you… bitch you.”
    She sighs. “Okay, Spike. Maybe you can. Maybe you can find some other way to kill me, in fact, maybe you could’ve. Maybe you still can. Why don’t you?”
    “Who says I’m not trying?” He says roughly, tracing his old shot glass with a finger. Who says every waking minute of me knowing you isn’t some sort of plot against you?”
    Buffy looks at him carefully. “I heard your stories tonight. You’re not the most patient guy.”
    “Well, under the right circumstances…” They exchanged looks before Buffy rolls her eyes and turns back towards the bar, away from him. The burning feeling was back. “You are fully mounted on that high horse of yours, you know that?”
     ---
    Instead of going out of his mind, Spike doesn't dream of kissing Buffy and his and Buffy's life (and unlife) go on as usual. The only problem is, it manages to bring them closer, and they don't realize it or the rapidly developing feelings they have for each other.
    However long it takes before they realize what they're suppressing, well, it serves them right.
