Yeah, there are literally thousands of fan fiction stories featuring them as a couple...mostly from one offhanded comment made that implied that maybe, in the past, they might have been more than friends (in the days of Angelus, Spike, Dru and Darla). They certainly were great together in season 5 of Angel. Joss has implied that it was never his intent to make that an issue, I think folks feel because of the success of Willow and Tara that perhaps he might have considered going there...my take, Joss would have been direct with it (just like with Willow and Tara and later Willow and Kennedy). I think James did such a wonderful job with his character (as did David) that there was natural chemistry with others...look at Spike's circle...Dru, Darla and Angelus at first, then Buffy, Willow (they were often cute together...the night he couldn't bite her), Giles (humorous), Xander (funny as hell), Anya, Faith and Harmony (sexual chemistry) and later Wes, Fred and Illyria.
