As they lay on the floor Buffy finally realised he had not been mad at Dave because he had left her. She had been mad at herself for not telling him how she felt before he left and she had regretted it ever since.
He had something about him no other boy had given her and that was him, body, mind and soul completely asking and wanting nothing in return just being a good friend.
"Dave?" she muttered "are you okay?"
"Nah my ribs are even worse now but I can stay like this for a little longer" he said smiling "with you"
"You're so full of crap" she said playfully hitting him forgetting he had cracked ribs "shit Dave I'm sorry"
"S'ok it's not like you are the slayer so it hurt more than it normally would" he said with a smirk
"It was an accident I forgot" she said getting angry quickly
"Buff relax I'm just messing with you" Dave said "can you go and get the guys though they are still asleep in the car"
"Well there is a surprise waiting on Dean" Buffy said and Dave's eyes widened as he straight away knew what it would be
"What the hell is going on down here?" Faith said as she had heard the thud of Dave and Buffy hit the floor "Dave?" she questioned as she saw Buffy lying on top of the older hunter
"Hey Faith" he said
"Why is Buffy lying on top of you like you guys have been doing something?" Faith said "hang on if your here?" and she did not finish her sentence as she ran to the door flung it open and flung herself at an unsuspecting Dean and he was even more surprised when she hugged him rather than punching or kicking him.
"Sammy" Dean said "get her off of me" and Faith and Sam both laughed as she let go.
"So your the baby brother?" Buffy and Faith said looking at Sam and he nodded "weird that the oldest is the smallest"
"Hey" Dean said "not in all places"
"How would you know?" all other four voices said together and then they begin to laugh
"So why are you here?" Faith said
"We had a local hunt but Dave is injured and we need a third" Dean said
"Shotgun" Faith said quickly before Sam could react.
"You can't call shotgun inside" Sam said
"Ugh fine" Faith said and walked outside and left the front door open "shotgun, happy Sammy?" and Sam just stood there with a look of bemusement on his face. Dean however simply had a look of "I love that crazy bitch"
"Guys the vamps won't kill themselves" Dave said motioning towards the door
"No but how cool would it be if they did?" Faith said mouth wide open in awe "that would save me sooo much time"
"GUYS" Buffy shouted frustrated they would not leave her and Dave alone.
"Relax blondie we're going" Dean said smirking
"Babe" Faith said "run" and Dean did after seeing the look in Buffy's eyes in hid behind Dave knowing she would not hit her injured whatever they were
"Dean" Dave said "before this ends with me worse off than before we came here apologise or leave"
"Fine" Dean said "we're going" and quickly ran past before Buffy could get her hands on him.
"So" she said when they had left her and Dave alone "what do you wanna do now?"
