Willow snuggled closer to Spike. His arm tightened around her. Her body fit perfect in his embrace. She thought over what had happened since yesterday. He loved her. This sexy, funny, gorgeous man loved her. He had chosen her over Drusilla. She still couldn't believe that. And last night he had been wonderful. She had been overwhelmed with everything. He had taken her to the bed and told her to sleep. Nothing else. She had assumed that he would want to have sex, but he had smiled and told her that he didn't think she was ready for that yet. He had kissed her and told her that he could wait. She had fallen asleep in his arms. It was the first good night of sleep she had had in months. She heard the phone ringing. Sighing, she moved out of Spike's embrace.

"Hello."

"Willow. This is Thack. Did you get my message?"

"Uh...yeah. Sorry I didn't call you back. But Spike decided he didn't want to find Dru."

"He finally admitted that he loved you huh?" Thack said knowingly.

Willow felt herself blushing. "Thack!"

He chuckled at the girl. Suddenly, he sounded serious. "I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I think you should know."

"What?" she asked anxiously.

"Dru is in London and she's looking for Spike. She heard he was in England, living with a human."

"She wants him?" Willow whispered.

"Now that I don't know. Drusilla has never been a predictable vampire. She could be here simply to pay him a visit, she might need his help, he took care of her for the last 80 years or so...she could plan on killing him.... or she could be here ready to take him back. If it is the latter, she will kill anyone who gets in her way. That's why you had to know. Spike might have an idea. I doubt he knows she is this close. She just arrived a few days ago. Be careful Will."

Willow felt a headache coming on. "Ok. Thank you Thackery. I'll talk to Spike. I'll call you tomorrow."

"What's wrong?" Spike asked softly. He walked to his love and took her in his arms.

Willow lay her head on his chest, still not used to not hearing a heartbeat. She felt his hand brushing her hair. She sighed.

"That was Thackery. Drusilla is in London....She's looking for you."

She felt him stiffen, his hand stopping their movement. "Is she?" he asked tightly.

Willow closed her eyes at his tone, tears slowly falling down her cheeks.
