"DAWN!!" Buffy yelled from the bottom of the stairs.
"WHAT?! I'M BUSY!" Her sister yelled back.
"Come downstairs! We need to talk!"
"I didn't do it!! I swear!"
"Not that kind of talk! Just get down here!" Dawn rolled her eyes and closed her journal. It was still early evening, but she was already in her pajamas. A simple tank-top and cloth shorts. Dawn exited her room and rounded the corner of the stairs only to find Buffy in Spike's arms.
"Ew. Please, could we save the make-out fest for later?" Buffy tried to pull away, but the vampire wouldn't let her,
"Spike...honey...get off."
"Spoil my fun."
"Get used to it, we won't be doing much of that around the house." Buffy waved her finger.
"Um, guys. Someone wanna fill me in?...After I get my robe." Dawn suddenly became aware that she was wearing her pajamas and ran back up the stairs to get her bathrobe. A few seconds later, she returned to find her sister and her newly acquired boyfriend in the kitchen.
"Dawn, sit." Buffy pulled a chair out from the island.
"You know about me and Spike, right?" Dawn nodded her head.
"Good. 'Cause we've been thinking."
"Hope you didn't strain yourself." Dawn joked. Buffy ignored it.
"We've been thinking that maybe, if it's ok with you also, that maybe Spike could come and live with us for a while. But it's up to you!" Buffy said hopefully. Dawn's eyes lit up and she jumped out of her seat.
"Spike!! Spike's gonna live with us!!" She threw her arms around the vampire and clung to him like lint on a sweater.
"Ok, I'll take that as a yes..." Spike said while trying to pry the girl off of him.
"Good. That means twenty-four, well, almost twenty four hour protection. I'm gonna move all of my stuff out of my room and into mom's, then Spike can have my old room. And you don't have to do anything but help us move." Buffy pushed herself up onto the top of the island and grabbed an apple from the bowl.
"This is gonna be sooo cool! When can he move in?! Now? Now is good!" Dawn jumped up and down and clapped her hands excitedly.
"No, nibblet. Not right now." Her smile faded.
"Maybe in about a couple hours. If that's ok with your sister..." Dawn ran to his side once more and clung onto his arm.
"Pleeeeaaaassseee Buffy?! Please?!" Dawn was practically on her knees begging.
"Yeah, come on Buffy! Pleeeaassee?" Spike stuck his lower lip out in an attempt to match Dawn's. Buffy laughed and then agreed.
End Part 8
One more to go!
1 week after Spike moved in.
Dawn entered the house about a half hour after school ended. Spike was in the kitchen making Dawn her usual after school snack she always liked. A peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Buffy was out by the magic shop with the rest of the group researching the latest vampire cult.
"Dawn, your sandwich is ready!" Spike turned around to find Dawn with a few of her friends standing behind him. Two of which had their mouths slightly open and eyes wide. The other whispered to Dawn,
"You were right, he is a hottie!" Spike tried to hide his smile, and Dawn blushed a little. Ok, Dawn blushed a lot. Spike decided to break the silence,
"So, who're your friends?" He placed himself on the ledge of the counter by the sink as Dawn went on with introductions.
"Guys, this is Spike." All three of her friends smiled in unison and said, with some difficulty,
"Hi." Spike nodded and Dawn grabbed her sandwich as they all headed upstairs.
The next person in the house was Buffy. Along with Willow and Xander. He and Spike had declared a mutual agreement. They wouldn't torment each other until further notice. And it worked. Buffy kissed Spike hello while Willow and Xander groaned and headed into the livingroom.
"How was your day?" He asked.
"Pretty dull. We didn't find out much. Only that the leader of the cult liked to roast pigs before he was a vampire...weird. And your day?" Buffy asked, her arms still around his neck.
"Oh, same old same old. Dawn came home about ten minutes ago. She had a few friends with her. I think their names were, Melinda, Amanda, and....Jessica? Yeah. I found out that 'Dawn was right, I am a hottie.'" The vampire smirked. "I wonder what they would say if the found out I was dead?"
Meanwhile, upstairs:
"So, who is he?! Does he have a girlfriend? Where's he from?!"
"He's....Spike. Yes he does have a girlfriend, and he's from London." Dawn answered.
"Awww...too bad." One said.
"Like he'd ever want you!" Melinda shot at her.
"Oh bite me!"
Downstairs:
"Ok," Willow began. "Do we want the chick flick first or last?"
"LAST!" Both men agreed. Buffy and Willow pouted.
"Ok. House on Haunted Hill it is then." Xander and Willow put their feet up on the coffee table before they were shooed away by Spike,
"Hey hey! I just cleaned that!"
"Gee, Spike. I never figured you for the male equivalent to Martha Stewart. Do you make your own bed sheets?" Xander quipped. Spike made a threatening face before Buffy said,
"Shut up you guys! It's starting!"
"Yes mom." Xander said as he slouched down into his seat. About ten minutes into the movie, Willow piped up and said,
"Hey, Spike! The camera guy kinda looks like you!"
"No way. That guy has weird hair! Not at all like mine!"
It was about halfway into Steel Magnolias when Dawn came downstairs to escort everyone out.
"Bye Spike!" The three girls said, again in unison.
"See you later girls." He answered back. Buffy pouted and said,
"How do you rate? They said jack to me!"
"Guess we know who's the popular one now." Spike retorted. Dawn plopped down on the sofa next to him and curled up by his side, much like Buffy.
"Ohhh..." Dawn wined. "I hate this movie."
"I'm with the nibblet. Come on, Xander. Lets go play cards or something." Xander jumped out of his seat at the notion.
"Anyone know how to play gin?" Dawn asked.
"NO!" Xander shouted.
"Why not?"
"Because she's like the gin queen! She'll kick your ass Spike."
"Oh, we'll just see about that."
A half hour later, Willow and Buffy are on the couch passing the tissues back and forth, and Dawn is kicking Spike's ass at gin:
"Ha ha!! I win again!" Chanted Dawn. "You owe me! I have all your money! Ha ha ha! Come on, Spike, pay up." Spike slowly pulled out his wallet and threw his last five on the table. Dawn snatched it up and added it to the rest of her pile. Xander was sitting across from Dawn, looking glum. His hard earned paycheck just went out the window.
"One-hundred, one-fifteen, one-twenty. Hmm. Not bad for a half hour...Anyone else wanna take on 'The Gin Queen?" Spike shot Xander a look before saying,
"I'll hold her down, you grab the money." Dawn swept the cash off the table and jumped from her seat.
"Buffy? Could you and Spike take me shopping tomorrow?!"
"NO!!!" Came both answers.
The End.
There. It is done. I am thinking of doing a sequel, but I don't know. What do you guys think? And if you've seen House on Haunted Hill, you will understand the camera guy joke. If you haven't, James Marsters played the camera guy for about five minutes! I think that was the best part of the whole movie!
"WHAT?! I'M BUSY!" Her sister yelled back.
"Come downstairs! We need to talk!"
"I didn't do it!! I swear!"
