Title: I Won't Leave Again

Chapter: Long Awaited Smoochies

Author: Niki (Sunnygurlie)

Rating: PG13 If you watch Buffy, you can read this. It's got some sexual innuendo and a little swearing(Bloody Hell mostly) also the word bitch is in this one, but they've said it on the show, and the show's pg13, so I think it's Ok (I've been listening to the "Once more with Feeling" soundtrack for hours on end for the past week, and Spike says 'I'm free if that bitch dies')

Spoilers: Takes place ten years after the end of season six, so anything up to season six is fair game. Season 7 didn't happen. I don't watch Angel, so Cordy & Angel's timeline thing is kind of warped. Here, Angel and Cordy had started Angel Investigations, and Cordy had become half demon. Connor never existed, and none of the other characters are mentioned. And, because I felt like it, Cordy had a baby with Doyle.

Summary: Ten years after season six, Dawn is a single mother, Buffy is dead, and Willow and Xander are married and have a baby. Dawn is being hunted by Angelus, and Spike comes back to Sunnydale with a little surprise.

Disclaimer: I own Nothing! Jos owns everything. Although I wish I owned Spike (insert evil laugh here)

Ships: talks about Angel/Dawn, Will eventually be Spike/Dawn.

A/N-to make things less confusing, Willow's nickname will be Wills, and William will be Will.

Here it is! The long awaited Spawn smoochies! Brownie points to anyone who recognized that the well placed insult from Angelus would trigger this! I'll try to get the next chapter out as quickly as possible. Thanks to all my reviewers! You guys rock!

After going home, freshening up, and packing an overnight bag, all the scoobies, old and new, well, except for Halfrek, who had to get back to work, and Giles, who never went to the Scooby sleepovers(he said that he saw enough of them during the day, thank you, and that seeing Spike in pajamas would just permanently blind him), were at Dawn's for a Scooby sleepover. The kids were watching Cinderella in the living room, and the adults were sitting around the dining room table, half researching, half reminiscing.

Dawn had dressed in a pink halter top and baby blue pajama pants, just to prove to Spike she was capable of wearing color. Spike was in his typical black pajama pants and a skin tight black T-shirt. Cordy had a bright red tank top and black pajama pants, and Anya had a neon green tank top with black pajama pants. Oz had red plaid pajama pants, and a matching red T-shirt.

The kids' pajamas were much more exciting. Will had Spider Man pjs, the kind with the webs connecting the arms to the shirt, while the three younger girls all had princess pjs; Maggie in Sleeping Beauty, Joy in Snow White, and Anna was in Cinderella. Kim's pjs matched her mom's, bright red tank top, and black pajama pants.

There was giggling coming from the living room as the adults talked.

"Remember that time.." Cordy started

"at Halloween when everyone turned into their costumes?" put in Dawn

"Yeah, I was trying to off Buffy....again."

"That's when I talked to Willow for the first time."

"Was I the only one not there?"

"Nah Anya, I wasn't really there, I just have memories of it."

"Oh, that makes me feel so much better."

"Remember when-" started Anya

"Wills casted that spell-" Dawn added

"and Buffy and I got engaged-"

"you what!" Cordy started in shock.

"It was after Oz left. She was miserable, so she casted a my will be done spell, which ended in Giles going blind, Spike having demons chasing him, and Spike and Buffy being engaged." explained Dawn.

"Wow I didn't realize she-"

"It's okay Oz, she moved on."

"What about.." Spike started

"When that dancing demon wanted me to be his wife." added Dawn

"And we were all singing." answered Anya

Oz looked puzzled.

"Don't worry Oz, I wasn't there either. Although I've heard the story oh so many times." she rolled her eyes.

"Hey remember when.." Dawn started

"Angelus came and burnt down the house." the aforementioned vampire said through the window.

"Oh god!" said Cordy.

Dawn took charge. She closed the window, and started giving orders. "Cordy, Anya, take the kids upstairs Go into my room, turn on the TV, and keep them occupied. do not open the shades or the windows for anything. If anything taps on the window, ignore it. Don't worry, Spike and I put a fire-proofing spell on the house. Spike, you take the back door, Oz, you and I have the front. Nobody invite anyone in, not even if they look human." Dawn laughed as she watched Angelus try to set fire to the house, which would not burn.

"Bitch! What did you do?" he shouted at the closed window.

After about an hour, Angelus gave up and left.

}~{**}~{**}~{**}~{**}~{**}~{

Everyone gathered in Dawn's room, it being deemed the safest room in the house.

"Okay, now we all know Angelus. He doesn't give up that easily. It's a good thing we all planned on staying here anyway, because nobody is leaving the house until morning." Dawn said

"But what about my patrol? and I've got to pick up blood."

"Blood's in the fridge, and the people of Sunnydale will have to fend for themselves tonight."

"It's late, we should probably put the kids to bed." Cordy suggested.

"Because we're having a sleepover, everybody is going to sleep in Maggie's room tonight." Dawn told the kids. "I'll go get some sleeping bags, why don't you all go brush your teeth." Cordy and Anya followed the kids into the bathroom, while Oz and Spike went with Dawn down to the basement.

"I don't think they can get in this way, but can you guys board up the sewer access? asked Dawn, handing the men a hammer each, some nails, and a large board, and pointing to a small door in the corner of the cellar.

She went through the closet and found a pile of old sleeping bags. The vampire and the werewolf finished their job, and helped her to carry the sleeping bags to the children's bedroom.

}~{**}~{**}~{**}~{**}~{**}~{

After the children were settled, the scoobies gathered around the dining room table once again, this time to discuss strategy.

"The Amares we took can't be all of it. We only took three gallons, and even with what he's already used, there should still be two and a half gallons." Spike started

"What did you do with what we took?" Cordy asked.

"Gave it to Dawn." he answered.

"I poured most of it down the drain. I bottled half a gallon and put it in the back of the fridge, for emergencies."

"We need to have someone with the kids as much as possible. They can't ride the bus, someone will need to drive them to school every morning, and someone to pick them up."

"Well, I've got the magic shop, so I can't shuttle them around, but you can leave them with me after school." Anya offered.

"The rest of us can take turns." Cordy said.

"Daddy?" Maggie's voice startled them.

"Yes sweetie?"

"I woke up cause the back of my neck was all tingly, and my tummy hurt. I came downstairs, and it stopped."

Everyone looked puzzled for a minute, until suddenly Dawn understood.

"Slayer Sense!"

"What Nibblet?"

"It's her slayer sense. The neck thing, and her lower stomach hurting. There must be a vampire around!"

"Umm Nibblet? I'm right here."

"No, Our slayer senses only go off around bad vampires, or ones that mean us harm. That's why Buffy couldn't tell Angel was a vamp at first. It's him! He must be on the roof!"

They ran upstairs, and into Maggie's room. The other children were fast asleep.

Dawn pulled open the shades to see Angelus sitting there, smirking.

She grabbed the little bottle she kept in Maggie's nightstand drawer and opened the window. She threw the bottle of holy water as hard as she could and was awarded with a scream of anguished pain as it hit her former love.

She closed the window, pulled down the shades, and turned away from the window.

"Well, that should keep him away for the night."

}~{**}~{**}~{**}~{**}~{**}~{

Dawn had set up Cordy and Anya in Joy and Anna's room, and Oz in William's. Cordy told Dawn that there would be explaining in the morning as to why Spike was sleeping with her.

"Bit?" Spike asked as they were climbing into bed.

"Yeah?"

"What Angelus said, I've been wondering..."

"Did I name my son William because I was secretly in love with you?"

"Well, yeah."

"I named my son William in memory of Buffy. If she could have had a boy, she would have named him Will, and I wanted honor her memory. As for the secretly in love with you, I guess I always have been." she blushed. "I guess it started when you kidnapped me. Well, you didn't actually, but I remember you doing it... Oh god, I'm babbling like Willow!"

He laughed. It was deep and rich. Dwan had never heard him laugh like that. His laugh was always pretty short, and you could hear a touch of sinister evil in it, but this laugh was pure.

"Dawn, I love you too. I guess I've always loved you. It took going away for ten years and coming back to realize it, but I do." he punctuated this by kissing her.

"But Buffy-"

"Infatuation, obsession, even lust, but never really love."

She looked into his eyes and could tell that he was telling the truth. So she did the only thing she could think of.

She kissed him right back.

Of course, Cordy, Anya and Oz had to burst into the bedroom right at that moment.

"Dawn! Maggie's-" Anya started, but stopped when she saw what slayer and the vampire were doing.

"Oh my god!" shrieked Cordy, "Can't you guys get a room?"

"Umm Cordy? We are in a room. Now what's wrong with Maggie?"

"She's dreaming, having a nightmare or something. She kept screaming."

Spike sped out of the room before she finished with that speed that only vampires have. Dawn ran right after him. They dashed into the bedroom just in time to hear Maggie sit up and scream "Daddy!"

"What is it sweet?" he asked, scooping her up and carrying her into Dawn's room, as not to wake up the other kids.

"I had another dream. Auntie Dawn and you were fighting Uncle Angel, and Joy and me were locked in a-a prison cell, and uncle Angel stuck a stake in your heart and you turned to dust. She grabbed onto him even harder. "Please don't get turned into dust Daddy!"

He cradled her in his arms and rocked her back and forth. "Don't worry baby, I won't."

"I'll go make some hot chocolate." Dawn said, and quickly went down the stairs, followed by Cordy, Oz, and Anya.

"So.." started Cordy

"When were you going to tell us that you and Spike were orgasm friends?" asked Anya bluntly.

Dawn blushed. "We- we're not."

"Right Dawnie, you're just two friends who swap spit once and a while." Cordy put it a little more eloquently

"Well, not exactly.." She put the hot water on to boil and pulled out six cups.

"When did you guys start-"

"There is no start-"

"Okay, let me rephrase. When did you two start with the smoochies?"

"About four minutes before you burst in on us."

"Oh." the three scoobies blushed.

"So you two aren't-"

"No"

"Ya know, I really can't help it when my super vampire hearing lets me hear stuff." Spike said casually, putting Maggie on one of the stools in the kitchen.

All four of the humans blushed.
