Summary:

One of the things that bothered me about Buffy during season 7 was that she never really apologized for her behavior towards Spike even though he tried to make amends for his actions before the soul.

So I would like to see a story where they have a fight and Spike decides to stay away from her.

Before he can change his mind he runs into a kid that he eventually decides to take under his wing.

Bonus if the kid was Connor after he Angel kicked him out.

Would love it if taking care of the kid made Spike realize that he deserves better than to be treated like a punching bag.

Would love it if took a few attempts before Buffy got the apology right, with Spike calling her out when she got it wrong.

Optional interaction between Spike and Dawn, because those two are always awesome together.
