Dawn lay wrapped in Spike's arms watching him sleep. She reached up to his face and traced his features with her fingertips. He stirred a little and leaned into her caress. "What time is it?" he asked as he began to wake up.
Dawn looked over to the clock. "It's 12:39."
"It's to early to get up." Spike moved deeper under the covers and pulled Dawn closer to him. "Besides, it's much more comfy here." He nuzzled her neck and kissed behind her ear.
"It may be to early for you, but I'm hungry." She rolled over to face. "I want breakfast," she pouted.
"Well I can help with that," Spike said as he rolled Dawn under him and kissed her roughly, "Does that fill you up?" he flashed her a cocky grin.
"No," she said flatly, "I want food."
"Alright, let's go see what I can do." He climbed out of bed and took Dawn's hand and pulled her up. He drew her into a hug and kissed her again. "I'm gonna make my Nibblet some breakfast," he said with a smile.
Downstairs Wesley, Cordelia, Gunn, and Fred were in the office circled around a book. "Well I'll get on it," Gunn said as he headed for the weapons cabinet. "It won't take me very long."
"Be careful," Fred told him with a hint of worry in her voice.
"I will."
Dawn and Spike came down stairs hanging on each other as they headed for the kitchen. Everyone stared as they walked by. "Morning, guys," Dawn said as they passed.
"Morning, Dawn," Cordelia said confussed.
"Well, I'm going to go now," and Gunn headed for the door.
"Where you off to?" Dawn asked.
"There's a demon problem in a nearby neighborhood. Gunn was just going to take of it," Wesley answered.
"I'd like to join in on the fun, but I'm making breakfast for my baby," Spike said pulling Dawn closer and kissing her forehead and they walked into the kitchen.
"Did he just say 'my baby'?" Cordelia asked.
"I think he did. Do you think they're, you know?" Fred asked.
"I don't know, but what if Angel finds out?"
"What if I found out about what?" Angel asked as he came into the room.
"Uh nothing,"
"Ok," Angel said a little confused and walked toward the kitchen.
Dawn and Spike were standing near the stove all over eachother when Spike heard Angel coming and quickly moved away from her before Angel saw them.
"Morning, Dawn," Angel said and smiled at her, "Spike."
"Morning Angel," Dawn said back, "Do you want eggs?"
"No thanks." He drank a glass of blood and stuck the glass in the sink. "Well time to get to work," and he left the kitchen.
"That was close," Dawn said as she let out a breath when she knew Angel was far enough not to hear her.
"Bloody hell girl, make up you're mind!"
"What?"
"First you don't want him to find out then you do and now you don't again!"
"Being a woman, I have the right to change my mind, even if I do it several times," she said with a smile.
"You've got that right." Spike pulled her in for another kiss.
Later that day Cordelia and Fred found Dawn sitting on the couch. "Hey Dawn, what ya doin'?" Cordelia asked as she and Fred sat down next to her.
"Nothin' much."
"Well, Fred and I thought we could go out shopping and get some lunch. What do you think?"
"That's fine, let's go."
"Ok then, just let me get Angel's credit cards and we'll be ready to go."
"Haven't you guys used up enough of my money yet?" Angel called as they left.
"No!" they yelled in unison as the door shut behind them.
"Man, I already got the bill for the last shopping spree."
"What's wrong Poof, Did they take you're credit cards again?" Spike asked as her walked by.
"Yeah, and now it's going to rub off on Dawn if I'm not careful."
"Dawn went with them?"
"Yeah. They'll be back in oh, I don't know, when all the money's gone!"
The girls sat at an outside café surrounded by several bags eating their lunch.
"So Dawn, what happened this morning, or should I say last night?" Cordelia asked.
"What?" Dawn asked confused.
"The whole 'I'm making breakfast for my baby' thing."
"Oh c'mon! You know how Spike is with me."
"No we don't," Cordelia said them she smirked, "How is he?"
"Cordelia!" Fred said shocked.
Dawn continued, "What I mean is, he's takes care of me. He's looked at me as his baby for a while now."
"So are you two, like, together or something?" Cordelia asked.
"No!" but Dawn started to smile a little.
"Dawn?" Cordelia leaned in toward her looking at her seriously.
"Ok!" Dawn confessed not being able to keep it a secret any longer. "But only recently. It hasn't always been like this," she babbled on.
"Dawn," Fred interrupted her, "you don't have to explain. We're ok with this."
"Kind of," Cordelia added, "but I can't wait till Angel finds out."
"But he's not going to find out, is he," Dawn said quickly.
"Well we're not going to tell him, but I don't think it will take him long."
"Let's hope he doesn't."
The girls went back to eating they're lunch and speak anymore about Spike.
