Buffy ignored Spike's retort. She was feeling too guilty and defeated to have a pissing match with him. Although mentioning another woman's name brought up a jealousy in Buffy's guts that was hard to ignore. If anyone was finding him a daylight ring it should be her, but he'd already found someone else. So, that was that.
"Good," she said instead "We can always use more scoobies on the daylight patrol." But who was she kidding? There were hardly any vampires around here and the ones that were? Well, she wasn't exactly allowed to kill them.
Buffy fell silent and shoved her hand into her pocket to bring out a flask of whiskey. The awkward silence was too much to handle so she offered a drink to Spike. "Want some?"
