"Didn’t you ever feel the need to follow someone, even when you thought they were bloody idiots? Even when you were pretty sure their idiocy was going to get you killed?"
Xander frowned and studied Spike. The light the spilled in from the hallway, but it wasn’t enough for Xander to really see Spike’s expression. Xander rubbed a hand across his face. "Sadly, the only thing I remember is a whole lot of aggravation. I was aggravated that Buffy kicked my ass and then didn’t seem interested in it, and I would never admit this if I weren’t sleep deprived, but I was even aggravated that the others ate Principal Flutie without me."
Hm.A very telling moment for Spike here.
And it makes sense that Xander would be reluctant to trust Willow. After all, she hurt them very badly and broke that trust.
Some things just take more time to heal than others.
