XANDER: How did we get here?
BUFFY: Scenic route. Long drive.
XANDER: These last few weeks...
BUFFY: I know.
XANDER: I thought I hit bottom, but... It hurt. That you didn't trust me enough to tell me about Spike. It hurt.
BUFFY: I'm sorry. I should have told you.
XANDER: Maybe you would have. If I hadn't given you so many reasons to think I'd be an ass about it.
BUFFY: Guess we've both done a lot of things lately we're not proud of.
XANDER: Think I got you beat.
BUFFY: Wanna compare?
XANDER: Not so much.
They share a smile. It fades quickly from Xander's face.
XANDER (cont'd): I don't know what I'd do... without you and Will.
BUFFY: Let's not find out.
She takes him in her arms. He hugs her close, tears of relief breaking loose as he finally lets go of his anger and pain.
