Spike: Hey, mate.

Spike: Slayer's not back yet, huh?

Aaron: *shrugs* nope

Aaron: *frowns* left bout an hour ago have not seen her since

Spike: *sighs* did she say what she was doin'?

Aaron: *grunts nothing just disappeared

Spike: Perfect.

Aaron: *shrugs* at least I did not piss her off today

Spike: *chuckles* Well... we had quite a night last night... She really scared me. The First was IN the HOUSE... and it scared the hell out of me.

Aaron: *growls* Dawns ok right?

Spike: Buffy started sayin' that if she wasn't there that it wouldn't be haunting me, and how she blamed herself for Tara's death, cause if she'd stayed dead, Warren wouldn't have been shooting, and stuff... She was gonna go out and LET something kill her.

Spike: Dawn was at Michele's last night.

Spike: I blocked the door and told her that, if she left, she was gonna have to walk out over my dust.

Aaron: *frowns* damn...would have scared me to....ok it already scares me but that's beside the point

Spike: *nods* Yeah... she broke, finally... So did I, we were just... cryin' in each other's arms... I asked her how she expected ME to be able to live without her, if she wasn't willing to live ten minutes without me.

Spike: Cause she said that if she staked me, she wouldn't be able to live. Which is what brought on my question.

Aaron: *Shakes head * damn...the first is creepy if ya ask me..i mean it is the root of all evil

Spike: *nods* Yeah. And, Buffy didn't know it, but while I was pleading with her not to kill herself, it was in the room, too. Lookin' first like her, then like Dru.

Aaron: *frowns* damn..you me and the slayer have got to kill it or do something to make it go away

Spike: Every instinct was tellin' me to dive under the bed and not come out... But I faced my fear to help her... When I told her that it was actually in the room, that's when she realized how much I meant what I was sayin'. She knows how badly that bitch scares me.

Spike: *shrugs* Red fixed up this little pouch thing that we can throw at it. makes it leave for a bit. That's how I got rid of it after I'd calmed Buffy down.

Aaron: *Frowns* no I want it gone for good

Spike: Me too.

Aaron: *plops on his couch* so buffy told you bout the guys I'm going to kill?

Spike: No.

Aaron: *growls* she said she told you bout the guys who were bothering Dawn

Spike: Yeah... She also told me that she took care of it.

Aaron: *grunts* one of them the one who started the rumor has not been dealt with yet...she told me the most I could do was scare him

Spike: *chuckles* Have some fun with it.

Aaron: *grins* I plan to.....*grabs a cold mug of cow's blood from the floor and drains it and makes a face* blood clots

Spike: Yuck.

Aaron: *nods* yuck is right

Aaron: *looks around* hey where'd ya go

Spike: I'm right here.

Aaron: *chuckles* ok though you disappeared

Spike: Naw. I'm waitin' for Buffy... But I am about to have to go for about fifteen minutes or so, cause Tiger needs me to go check the mail!

Spike: *growls* I don't see why SHE can't do it, but still.

Aaron: *grins* cause it is dark and scary out

Spike: Tell Buffy I'll be right back if she comes back before I get back on.

Aaron: *nods* ok

Spike: *snorts* It's  five pm. What is scary about that?

Aaron: *shrugs* dark out so maybe vamps or worst yet clem

Spike: Hey! I like Clem.

Aaron: *grins* I know I do to
