Buffy's first thought was to smack him for not telling her that he was alive, but the phone chimed and she looked at the newest message from Faith. They were together. Oh. That explained a lot. It wasn't a surprise either - not really. She didn't have time to send a message back so she shut it off and slipped the phone in her pocket.
"I thought you might like the gawking," she said with a little eyeroll, immediately followed by a hug. It was so good to see him, even if she was both angry and confused. She was also relieved.
"Why don't you start with what happened and why you didn't call. Don't you think I would have wanted to know, and not have to think about you burning up."
