Surprises

"Don't worry, dear heart." Dru murmured scooping up her unconscious Childe. "I'll see that you get strong again. Like me!" She purred.
~~~~~`

"Hey! It's the woman of the hour." Xander said happily.

"It's Happy Birthday Buffy! Not Happy Birthday Buffy?" Willow's face fell.

"I-it's just that, um, part of the nightmare that Buffy had the other night actually transpired." Giles said quietly.

"Which means Drusilla might still be alive. Giles, in my dream, 't 't 't stop her. She blindsided me. A-Angel was gone before I knew what happened." She said dejectedly.

"Even if she is alive, uh, we can still protect Angel. Dreams aren't prophecies, Buffy. Y-y-y-you dreamt that the Master had risen, but you stopped it from happening." Giles encouraged. "Y "You ground his bones to make your bread." Xander said.

"That's true. Except for the bread part." She turned to Giles. "Okay, so, fine. We're one step ahead, but I wanna stay that way."

"Absolutely. Let me read up on Drusilla, uh, see if she has any particular patterns. Why don't you meet me here at 7:00? We'll map out a strategy." Giles offered.

"What am I supposed to do until then?" Buffy asked looking up at her watcher.

"Go to classes, do your homework, have supper..." Giles smiled.

"Right. Be *that* Buffy." She sighed.
~~~~~`

"So much for our surprise party. I bought little hats and everything." Willow said sadly.

-hm.-hm." Xander murmured.

"Oh, well. I guess I'll tell Cordelia." Willow said rising from her seat.

"No, you won't. We're having a party tonight." Giles stated emphatically.

"Looks like Mr. Caution Man, but the sound he makes is funny." Xander glanced at Giles.

"Buffy's surprise party will go ahead as we planned. Except I won't be wearing the little hat." Giles said looking meaningfully at Willow.

"But Buffy and Angel..." Willow protested.

"May well be in danger... as they have been before, and, I imagine, will be again. One thing I've learned in my tenure here on the Hellmouth is that there is no good time to relax. And Buffy's turning 17 just this once, and she deserves a party." Giles stated.

"You're a great man of our time." Xander said clapping Giles on the back.

"And anyway, Angel's coming. So she'll be able to protect him *and* have cake." Willow said with a smile.

"Precisely." Giles nodded polishing his glasses.

"Are we goin' to the Bronze?" Buffy asked glancing out the window.

"I'm not sure. Giles gave me an address. I'm just following his directions." Jenny replied trying not to let her smile show.

"This looks funky. Stop for a sec." Buffy said noticing somethig suspicious.

"No, Buffy, maybe you shouldn't." Jenny said fearfully.

"Sorry. Sacred duty, yada yada yada." Buffy said hopping quickly from the car.
~~~~~`

"Where is she?" Angel asked pacing.

"Shhh! I think I hear her coming." Willow replied shushing him.

Buffy and a vampire crash through a window. She plunged her stake into his chest and he shrieked as he crumbled to dust.

"Surprise!" Cordelia shouted.

"That pretty much sums it up." Oz said deadpan.

Buffy, are you okay?" Angel asked taking a step closer. ~ God you smell so good. ~

"Yes. W-what happened?" Giles stammered polishing his glasses.

"Uh, there were theampsamps outs... W-what's going on?" Buffy asked glancing around the room .

"Oh, um... A surprise party." Giles smiled at her. He lifted the party favor to his lips and blew.

"Happy Birthday." Cordelia said happily.

"You guys did all this for me?" Buffy looked up at Angel. ~ I love you so much. I can't wait to get you alone. ~ "That is so sweet."

"You sure you're okay?" Angel asked taking her hand. ~ Mmmmm soft Buffy. ~ Angel could feel himself grow hard.

"Yes, I'm fine." She smiled up at him. ~ Or I will be when I can feel your body pressed up against mine. ~ She smiled. "Wanna dance?" She whispered.

Angel nodded. They walked slowly to the dance floor. Angel pulled Buffy into his arms. They swayed to the rhythm of the song, entranced in each other's eyes.

Buffy stood on tip toe and Angel leaned down. His lips brushed ever so gently against hers. Buffy pulled his head down and kissed him deeply, allowing his tongue entrance into her mouth.

Buffy moaned into the kiss and felt wes pos pool between her legs. She saw Angel's nostrils flare, and realized he was inhaling hrousrousal.

Buffy felt her knees get weak and she leaned up against him. She could feel his hardness pressing into her stomach.
~~~~~`

"Can we get out of here now?" Angel murmured into her ear.

"Yeah. It's eleven o'clock, I think everyone's ready to go." Buffy murmured back.
~~~~~`

Buffy and Angel got to the mouth of the first alley, Dru came at them from the darkened passage. She snack up silently behind them and zapped Angel with the cattle prod. He fell to the ground writhing in agony "Dru what the hell..."

Suddenly she pounced on a stunned Buffy. Dru zapped her twice knocking her unconscious. She smiled wickedly as she turned to Angel. "Daddy, we need to have a picnic, the king of cups must have his party." Dru singsonged before knocking him out with another blast.

"Pick them up and bring them home." She said softly to her minions.

Two of them grabbed Angel and carried him. A third grabbed Buffy and threw her over his shoulder. He could feel her blood calling out to be tasted. He turned his head and inched his face closer to her side.

Suddenly Dru turned on him and had him by the throat. "That tasty treat belongs to my knight. Wouldn't try to taste. Don't want me to get cross, I am not a nice girl when I'm cross." The minion nodded in understanding.
~~~~~`

Dru walked into the mansion. She was grinning madly. "Put my daddy on the couch. I have plans for him. Stay with him until I return." She turned on her heal beckoning the vampire carrying Buffy to follow her down the hall.

Dru entered the master bedroom smiling sweetly at the vampire curled up on the bed. Light from the door way illuminating the darkened room. "Here you go My poor boy, I've brought you something tasty." Dru purred crawling up the bed towards him. "Eat her. Eat that nasty slayer, She'll make you all better." She purred kissing him tenderly on the lips.

Spike growled softly. ~ I can smell him. That bastard. Always taking Dru from me. ~

Buffy was dropped unceremoniously on the bed beside the kissing couple. She landed on her side facing them.

"Why's she so out of it Luv?" Spike rasped.

"Thought you might want to tie her up? Play with her a teensy bit first?" She purred rubbing her ridged forehead against his palm.

"Right Luv..." Spike smiled. "You know I only want you."

"Poor Spikey..." Dru whispered, tears forming in her eyes. She handed him the cattle prod. "If she wakes up, use this on her. You'd be better not to kill her right away, take little bits at a time."

"What do you mean?"

"I gave you the cattle prod silly. Use it. So she can build up more blood between your feedings. I'll check in on you when I'm done with Daddy." Dru got off the bed and rushed out of the room, slamming the door behind herself and sending the room once again into pitch blackness.

Spike glanced over at Buffy. ~ I can smell Angel on her. Stupid git. Slayer's lap dog. ~

Spike inched closer. He sniffed again.

~ Smells really good. Like violence and arousal. My two favorite things. ~ He thought lustfully as he inched closer again. He could feel the heat radiating off of her tiny form. He reached out to touch her. Spike froze. His fingertips had grazed across bare skin.
~~~~~`

Dru had Angel taken into another bedroom and handcuffed him to the bed. She used magical handcuffs so he couldn't break them.

She then lay down beside him on the bed, her tools laid out between them and waited for him to wake up. Daddy needed a lesson.
~~~~~`
~ Slayer hasn't moved. ~ He thought to himself a few minutes later. Spike let his fingers stroke the flesh beneath them trying to figure out what part of her he was touching.

~ Mmmm nice muscle tone. ~ He thought to himself finally figuring out his fingers were suggestively grazing her bicep.
