Summary: BtVS Season 7. Dawn's
thoughts about Spike.
She hated Spike. Dawn kept telling herself that. After an entire summer without him, she was fairly convinced. So when he came back, it wasn't hard at all to threaten to set him on fire.
Soon too many things were happening, with the First. When Spike had been taken, and later rescued, she pretended not to care. But his new scars made her remember what Glory had done to him.
And she realized she never really hated him. Apologizing wasn't easy, though, so she decided to wait for the right time.
Then suddenly there was no time left at all.
