Dawn's POV

All Lorne told me that everything would piece together and get better soon. So I got caught just for a cryptic answer from a demon. I wouldn't call that things getting better.

So here I am standing in front of A.I. I know Spike is in there waiting for me. Why do I have to go in? Why do I have to go back to him? I am so sick of sadness, and that's all Spike ever looks at me with. It is like that fun and spontaneous person I used to hang out with is gone. That Spike died with Buffy, and I fear that it may stay in her grave until he finally gets so discussed with himself he commits suicide. I take a glance at Angel and I think he noticed it too.

I take look a glance at Connor and catch him looking at me. This brings a smile to my face, and his cheeks redden as he realized I caught him.

I walk into the hotel and Spike is pacing in the lobby. When he turns and sees me he runs up and scoops me into a hug.

So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
And love me when I'm gone
Everything I am
And everything in me
Wants to be the one you wanted me to be
I'll never let you down
Even if I could
I'd give up everything
If only for your good
So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
You won't always be there
So love me when I'm gone
Love me when I'm gone

He holds onto me for a while until Angel clears his throat and then he quickly lets go. He looks me straight in the eye, and I think he realizes why I ran away. I wouldn't be surprised if the same thoughts had came across his mind recently also. He knows me too well and I suddenly hate him for it. I hate it most because this unsouled demon can understand me better than my own sister ever did.

There's another world inside of me that you may never see
There's secrets in this life that I can't hide
Well somewhere in this darkness there's a light that I can't find
Well maybe it's too far away
Or maybe I'm just blind
Maybe I'm just blind

When your education x-ray cannot see under my skin
I won't tell you a damn thing that I could not tell my friends
Roaming through this darkness, I'm alive but I'm alone
And part of me is fighting this
But part of me is gone

"Connor can you show Dawn to one of the guest rooms. Her and Spike are going to be staying the night with us." Angel asked Connor leading Spike into his office.

Connor nodded and started walking up the grand staircase. We walked down several dusty hallways until Connor stopped in front of a door and opened it. The room was simple but not too shabby. I walked in and dropped my backpack that I had been carrying onto the bed.

"Have you ever just wanted to get away. The way people looked at you, wishing you where someone you aren't and can't be." Dawn said turning back around to look at Connor. He opened his eyes wide and nodded in agreement.

"Angel and Cordy and the rest of them, look at me and sometimes I can see it in their eyes, them wishing I was an infant again. Then in my father's that's all I ever see is him wishing that I was his son that he raised." Connor said softly. Then Dawn did something she needed most. She walked up to Connor and hugged him and just let all her tears fall freely. They both held the only person who understood.
