Nothing better than the blood of a Slayer

"Well I do hope you know what you're talking about." Giles replied replacing his glasses atop his nose. "Your friends and I will patrol with you for the next few nights…just to be sure Angel…got the message…his history suggests he does not give up easy when he is determined about something." Giles said softly.

‘No…When am I gonna see Spike?’ She cringed "Oh…uh yeah that would be …great Giles…lots of help. As always." Buffy tried to sound happy. ‘Crap!!! Spike is not going to like this. No, not at all.’

‘I hope she likes this place.’ Spike thought taking a look around. ‘Gotta furnish the place before I bring her here. Definitely need a bed first.’ He walked out the door and locked it behind himself.

‘Keys! I have sodden KEYS now because of that chit.’ Spike thought smiling to himself. He detoured from his original destination and ended up at Willy's. ‘Bloody hell. Maybe I should get a drink. Long as I'm here.’

"Come on Buffy! Giles and Xander have been waiting downstairs for over 20 minutes. It's not like you didn't know we were coming." Willow grumbled.

"I know Will, I just…there's stuff…major stuff that's been …that I've been…"

"Buff? Hey you ready or what?" Xander asked knocking lightly and throwing the door wide. "Hey…uh if I didn't know any better…I'd think you were talking about me…but I know…not gonna happen…did I interrupt something?" He jokingly asked.

"No Xan…I was just telling Willow…you know girly stuff…" Buffy looked away.

"Oh…Uh…I'll just…be downstairs…." Xander muttered and headed for the door.

"We'll be right down…" Buffy said smiling gratefully at him.

"No problem take your time." Xander said shutting the door behind him.

"Listen Will…we don't have time to talk now…after patrol I'll walk you home and we can talk ok?" Buffy asked.

Willow nodded and they joined the boys in the living room.

"Sodden bint. Need her? Don't bloody well need anybody." Spike muttered to himself as he nursed his drink.

"Spike? Hey Spike! Buddy how's it going?" Clem asked approaching his friend cautiously, judging his mood. ‘Spike can be cranky sometimes.’ He thought defensively.

"Clem, how's it hangin'?" Spike asked laughing at his own joke. He was feeling really good right now. Clear head. ‘Yeah. Away from her and I can think rationally.’ He pushed a stool towards his friend. "Hey Clem…feel like shopping?" Spike asked.

"Shopping? For what?" Clem asked

"Furniture, TV, a bed….I donno…." Spike shrugged.

"Yeah man…did you get a place?" Clem asked. "I mean away from that factory…"

"Yeah I've got a place. Bought myself a house. I just need to furnish it now." Spike shrugged again. "I just …I just want it to be livable…"

"Ok Man…let's go right now." Clem said getting to his feet.

They were walking through the second cemetery when Buffy felt the hair on the back of her neck raise. She stopped suddenly almost making Willow, who was following closely, crash into her.

"Buffy?" Willow whispered.

Buffy raised her hand signaling quiet. She closed her eyes and inhaled. ‘Vampires. Four of them. Not Spike.’ Buffy motioned her friends' back.

She walked slowly, stalking their scents. Their every step giving away their position. Buffy's friends watched from 25 feet away as the vampires came into the clearing. They all stared mouths agape at the viciousness the slayer displayed.

Buffy growled deep in her throat and lunged at the closest vamp dusting him quickly. The second she punched in the face sending him flying into the third. A carefully aimed stake through the fourth ones heart had him exploding to dust in seconds.

Buffy felt the adrenaline coursing through heinseins, making ever kick and punch stronger. Her muscles were screaming to be used, exercised. Slamming her fist into a vamp she sent him flying through the air. The other one lunged at her and Buffy let out an inhuman growl. She grabbed his arm and pulled him toward her connecting punch. Buffy felt a shudder of satisfaction rush through her as he screamed in pain.

"Wh…wh…what are you?" The vampire asked her blood pouring from his mouth.

"I am the Slayer" She growled thrusting her stake through his heart. Buffy smiled in satisfaction and turned to where the other vampire lay still. She stalked over to him and growled punching him viciously in the face. She drew her arm back and plunged the stake in his heart.

"…uffy…are you ok? …Buffy?" Willow asked as they all ran up to join her.

Willow's eyes nearly fell from their sockets when Buffy turned to face her best friend.

"How soon can you deliver it Luv?" Spike asked the sales girl seductively.

"Uh…yeah…it could be there tomorrow afternoon…would that be ok?" She asked blushing desperately.

"Yeah…that would be fine Pet." He smiled winningly. "I'd like to take the drapes and blankets now though…that be ok?"

"Sure…anything else?" She asked softly.

"Some candles?" Spike asked "Big pillar ones…you know three wicks …scented…What kind of scent do you find sexy pet?" Spike inquired.

"Oh…I…uh…I like cinnamon." She replied blushing all the way to her roots.

"Yeah…cinnamon and Vanilla too." Spike replied picking out 10 of them from the pile she showed him.

"Thanks Pet." Spike smiled winningly taking the pges ges he had just purchased.
Spike carried his parcels all the way home and hung his curtains. He made a nice soft bed on the living room floor. He cuddled up and fell into a deep sleep. Spike dreamt of Buffy.

"Buffy what's wrong with you today?" Willow asked her friend. "You went after those vamps so viciously…and violently."

"Oh…I …well see here's the thing Will…that's never happened before…I just …I donno…I think it may be connected with the other stuff."

"What other stuff Buffy? What's …"

"Willow…I …"

"Willow…bedtime." Her mom said knocking quietly on the door.

"I'll talk to you tomorrow…" Buff whispered as she took off out of Willow's window.

‘Crap. Willow and her strict mom. I wanted to talk to her. I need to tell someone what's going on with Spike.’ Buffy thought to herself miserably.

Willow hid under her covers and waited for him to pick up. She held the reer ter to her ear and counted the rings.

"Hello?" He picked up on the fifth ring.

"Yeah jus just left. Did you see it Giles? Did you see her eyes? What the hell was that?" She whispered.

"I don't know Willow but believe me I will find out." Giles said softly. "Listen you get some sleep Willow…I'll talk to you tomorrow."

"Ok Night Giles." Willow murmured softly.

Buffy quickly finished her shower and got into bed. lay lay quietly for a few minutes and drifted off to sleep. Buffy didn't realize as she slept her body called out to him. His mark burned for his touch. Buffy unconsciously rubbed his mark and sighed softly in her sleep.

'Spike. I need you.' He heard her say it. Right next to him. Her hot breath tickling his ear. Spike felt a sexual thrill rip up and down his spine. He shuddered involuntarily.

‘Buffy.’ Spike thought suddenly wide-awake. He had a raging hard on. ‘I'm coming for you baby.’
