All BTVS characters belong to Joss. All others are mine. Rating: PG-13 Summary: This takes place between season 5 & 6. All characters from the show are alive and well except Joyce, basically no one died battling Glory. Dawn and her friends are at a party. Feedback:Yes. please R/R . This is a mult-part story so the more comments the better the story gets. Distribution: Cool that would be great just ask me 1st. Note: You will see some of my characters may seem like copies of willow(Hannah) xander(Lawrence) cordy and harmony(jasmine & holly). I will flesh them out more as the chapters continue but basically I thought of giving dawn her own scoobie gang. That was the idea behind writing this story and as the story grows hopefully so will the characters. Chapter 4: A Kiss is just a Kiss. " The names Dawn," Dawn replied "Umm and Noo!, you can't leave Lawrence that is final"

Dawn shouted the words out to cover up her screaming of NO! when Harmony entered the house.

"In fact I really would like to dance with you Right Now Lawrence lets go," she said almost robot like pulling Lawrence's arm hard into the next room.

"What's with her," said Holly.

"Must be the family. They are all a little weird," smiled harmony. "So jasmine it's been so long. We have so much to catch up on. is there someplace we can talk privately."

"Sure we can go upstairs to your old room. I can't wait to hear how LA was. Did you meet any movie stars or anyone cool."

"Well I met Cordelia for a little while. She doing the modeling thing but she's kind of hanging out with a bad crowd now a days real freaks you know, but that's what you get when you start associating with people like buffy. You don't know what kind of trash you wind up associating with" replied Harmony.

"Tell me about it" said Jasmine looking at Hannah. " Let's go upstairs."

Meanwhile on the dance floor.

"Umm Dawn you're stepping on my feet," said Lawrence as Dawn was leading through the living room looking over her shoulder at Jasmine and Harmony.

"Sorry Lawrence," said Dawn as she forcefully was moving them to the other side of the room her eyes always on Jasmine and Harmony.

"I know I may sound old fashioned but shouldn't I be leading. oww," remarked Lawrence as Dawn stepped on his toes again.

"Don't be such a prude Lawrence. Haven't you heard of women's lib," Dawn replied again watching Jasmine and Harmony head upstairs. "I have to tell you something important"

Dawn lead Lawrence into the kitchen still holding onto him and dancing. James was watching from a distance.

"Hey Bo, Dawn and that Lawrence kid seem to be dancing pretty close. You don't think?" said James.

"No way Bro. I wouldn't worry about. That kids got nothing on you," said Bo. "Why do you just go up to them man"

"Yea maybe I'll do that," said James.

"Want a chip," said Bo to Hannah the chip bowl fully restocked.

"Might as well," said Hannah "Ohh barbecue flavor my favorite"

"You like barbecue too, a girl after my own heart," Bo said giving Hannah a hug.

"Your crushing me Bo," replied Hannah.

"Oh sorry."

Dawn was still busy pushing Lawrence into the kitchen. She had to get him alone and ask him to get her sister. She needed Buffy here. Harmony hadn't been back home since she was turned into a vampire. She was sure whatever reason Harmony had for returning it wasn't good.

Lawrence was a little confused by Dawn's constant pushing and strange dancing but he was enjoying have his arms around her. This was Dawn, the girl of his dreams and she was with him up close and personal. Their arms wrapped in each others. When she looked at him he felt like he was melting.

"Lawrence. I'm glad I got you alone," dawn said when they reached the kitchen.

"So am I," he said smiling at her, enjoying the touch of her hand on the back of his neck. She was so beautiful, he thought. He thought about kissing her but held back. Did she like him, he thought, Did she feel the same way he did, he wondered. Then as if reading his thoughts she replied.

"I need you," said Dawn in a urgent matter. She did need him to warn Buffy about Harmony. She needed him to run away and tell her to get here quickly. Unfortunately Lawrence was thinking otherwise and when he heard those words his mind raced to conclusions before she could tell him that and he kissed her full on the lips.

James had just walked into the kitchen at the exact moment Lawrence kissed Dawn and quickly turned away back to the living room, thinking this was the reason she had ushered young Lawrence into the kitchen.

"I can't believe it," he said to himself " Dawn and Lawrence. I never would have thought."

He saw a hungry Bo and Hannah pigging out on a nearby couch and went over there to sulk.

Dawn quickly pushed Lawrence away from her.

"Eww Lawrence what the hell do you think you're doing?" she asked him.

"Umm I ahh," said Lawrence understandably nervous when he realized Dawn's aversion to his kiss " I thought you said you.. Well you needed me and I wanted you and I..."

"We don't have time for this Lawrence. You have to get Buffy," said Dawn.

"Your sister?" asked Lawrence.

"Yes just go to my house now and tell Buffy that Harmony is at Jasmine's house," She replied.

"Why would your sister care if Harmony is staying in her own house," he replied.

"Damn it Lawrence I don't have time for this OK. Just trust me and I'm ahh sorry I guess if I gave you the wrong impression before Your a good friend," Dawn comforted.

"A friend " said Lawrence sarcastically.

"A good friend Lawrence," she corrected him.

"I'm sorry dawn. I guess I got a little carried away.You just standing there in front of me saying you needed me and all. It was kind of overwhelming and I just thought. Never mind, I'm just really sorry. I guess I better get going then. Umm Dawn when I get back can we still, I mean if you want to and I didn't totally embarrass myself and all.." said Lawrence babbling

"Spit it out Lawrence," said Dawn impatiently.

"Will you still dance with me?", he said.

"You bet Lawrence. I'll even let you lead next time. Now go" said Dawn

Lawrence left from the kitchen entrance and dawn let out a sign of relief.

"I wonder what James is doing," she said to herself.

James had plopped himself down on the couch between Hannah and Bo and started bingeing on the chips.

"Yo dude. you look like someone stole your your best friend and all. What happened with Dawn," said Bo.

"Nothing happened," said James.

"Why not, I thought she was really into to you," Hannah chimed in.

"Well I guess she found someone better," said James.

"No way your not talking about that geeky Lawrence kid," said Bo.

"He's not geeky and Dawn wouldn't be attracted to him anyway. At least I don't think she would be," said Hannah worried.

"Oh yea then why were they lip locked when I went to see them in the kitchen," said James.

"Lip locked as in Lawrence's lips and Dawn's lips and locked as in together and touching and everything," said Hannah

"That's what it looked like to me," said James.

"Way to go Lawrence.. Uhh I mean sorry dude," said Bo.

"This is bad. This is very bad. I have to do something. I have to," said Hannah standing up " I have to talk to Dawn"

Hannah walked into the kitchen to confront Dawn around the same time Jasmine and Harmony were near Harmony's old room.

"You won't believe it Harmony, Mom and dad left your room just like you left it," said Jasmine as she opened the door.

Before Jasmine opened the door all the way, Harmony could see all the mirrors in her room and quickly grabs the door handle from Jasmine and shuts it closed.

"Umm.. Why don't we go in your room, Jasmine. I can brush you hair like I used to do when you were younger," Harmony replied to the closed door.

"OK," said Jasmine "You sure you don't want anything to eat first. we have plenty of food, unless that blimp Bo eats it all"

"Nah That's OK sis. I'm sure I'll have a bite later," smiled Harmony.

"Dawn Summers I need to talk to you," said Hannah as she stormed in.

"What's up Hannah?" asked Dawn.

"Your up," said Hannah "Up all over my boyfriend with your I'm the greatest dodge ball player act and all. I mean I knew him alot longer than you you know. I think I should have first dibbs or well whatever you would call it. And then there's poor James that you led on and stomped his heart out like some cheap hussy, but that's not the point. I just think it's wrong. You can have any guy or maybe almost any guy and Lawrence just drools all over you and you just well it just not right and I deserve to. I just think that I should and we should. He's mine and you can't have him so lets just settle this like men, umm like women I mean who act like men ahh I mean well I don't know what I mean, lets just ahh hell just put them up, cause I intend to fight for my man." said Hannah in a long winded breath putting up her arms in a fighting stance

"I don't want to fight you Hannah and what the heck you are talking about. Me and Lawrence?" said Dawn.

"Oh are we playing the denying I didn't kiss Lawrence and James caught you in the act game. That is so like you. Well actually I don't really know you since we pretty much just started hanging out and all but that would be just like you if I knew you were you which you are you," said Hannah making less sense by the word.

"OK Hannah calm down before you hyperventilate. Lawrence kissed me by mistake and I didn't.. Wait a minute James saw me kissing Lawrence?" said Dawn

"Yes he did but that not the point you and Lawrence.. Umm what do you mean a mistake. You didn't want to kiss Lawrence?" Hannah inquired.

"Of course I didn't want to kiss Lawrence. he kissed me but I didn't kiss back. I have no interest in kissing Lawrence. I pushed him away as soon as he starting kissing me. I can't believe James saw. Oh god this is so awful," replied Hannah.

"I'll say. Hey wait a minute why wouldn't you want to kiss Lawrence do you think there is something wrong with him or something," said Hannah defensively..

"No there's nothing wrong... Hannah I really don't have time for this. I have to find Jasmine before Harmony.. well just don't worry about it Hannah everything will work out fine OK. I would never come between you and Lawrence, everyone around can see you guys were meant to be together like cosmically or something anyway, " said Dawn in a hurry.

"Meant to be together really,." Hannah said her mind starting to wander as dawn slipped past her "That's cool, like Romeo and Juliet only in a different century and our families don't hate each other and there's no poison or death or any other nasty stuff like that and Dawn... I.." Hannah realized she was standing alone in an empty kitchen.

"Oh." said Hannah just realizing that dawn stepped out.

Hannah thought about what Dawn said and it made her so happy. She started to just smile broadly. Hannah and Lawrence were meant to be together Dawn had told her. That gave her a happy feeling all over and she just wanted to hug the world. At that moment Bo walks in with an empty chip bowl.

"Oh Bo I'm so happy," said Hannah as she gives him a big hug. Just at that moment James walks in.

"OK Bo, you and Hannah, This party is getting weirder and weirder" said James

Jasmine and Harmony were up in their room as Harmony was brushing Jasmine's hair.

"Oh god Jas I really missed taking care of you you know," said Harmony.

"I missed you too," said Jasmine. "You don't know how boring Sunnydale is without you."

"You Know you're the reason I came back to Sunnydale," said Harmony "I just realized how important it was to have family you know"

"Really that's so cool. I'm just glad your back sis. I wish we can just stay together forever," said Jasmine.

"I've been thinking the same thing." said Harmony her vampire face coming out as she sat behind Jasmine brushing her hair.
