The end of Buffy's first year of college had come and now summer was starting. This summer everyone had big plans: Xander and Cordelia were driving cross-country and coming back in August. Willow was taking classes over the summer that she couldn't fit in over the school year and on weekends traveling all over California with Oz and the Dingoes. Tara was working at the Yoga studio Jenny owned and also traveling with Wes and the Dingoes over the summer. While Angel's dad was paying for him and Anya to go over to Europe until August.

However, Buffy had many plans of doing nothing much but lounging. The year had been so hectic; she had to maintain a strong GPA of 3.5 for her dad to continue paying. At the same time making time for her friend and her boyfriend Spike; this on top of trying to hide their relationship from the university's professors and deans. Her dad and Jenny found out when they caught the two making out in Buffy's dorm during a 'tutor session'. Basically it was a long year.

She was planning on spending the summer at her parent's house. Willow and Tara would be there when they weren't going all over California with the Dingoes Ate My Baby. Giles and Jenny were planning on going to weekend getaways every weekend. This year they barely got any time together so they were making up for it over the summer. This meant that every weekend Buffy was left to deal with Dawn. She was kind of pleased though because she barely ever saw Dawn during the school year and they needed some quality sister-sister time.

Currently Buffy, Willow, and Tara had just brought everything from their dorm rooms to the Giles's house. They were planning on sharing the room Willow and Buffy shared with Cordy during high school. Tara and Willow were taking the bunk bed while Buffy got the twin.

"Well that was the kind of fun that was not" Buffy said as she fell down on the bed.

"Yeah that takes a lot out of you" Willow said.

Tara nodded "Yeah but we don't even get to enjoy the nice place to rest. We have to leave to meet Wes and Oz in 15 minutes."

"Where you guys going this weekend?" Buffy questioned.

"Santa Monica" Tara said "Some club called 14 Below or something"

"Sounds fun, wish I could come" Buffy said sadly "But I have to stay on Dawn patrol tonight since Dad and Jenny are gone. We're renting movies and ordering pizza. Regular girl's night in."

"That'll be cool" Willow said as she gathered her stuff for the weekend "I know she misses hanging out with you."

"Yeah I know but things have been crazy this year." Buffy stated "But this weekend with Spike gone I get to devote all my time to her"

Spike was in Pasadena this weekend as a convention with a whole bunch of other professors discussing history stuff.

"Well we better go so they guys don't get mad" Tara said as she gave Buffy a good-bye hug.

"Yeah, have a good weekend with Dawn. I'll see you Sunday night, okay?" Willow questioned.

"Yep, sounds good" Buffy agreed as she gave her a good-bye hug.

***Later that Night***

Buffy and Dawn had just finished the pizza and were about to put their second movie in, When Harry Met Sally.

"I'm so glad we're doing this." Buffy said as she fast-forwarded the previews. "One, I get to spend time with my favorite little sis, and two Spike never lets me watch 'movies for girls and nancy boys.'"

Dawn laughed, "I think Spike is pretty cool, I mean he has cool hair and stuff and he wears a cool coat. Besides he is way cooler then Angel."

"Sounds like someone has a crush on my boyfriend." Buffy said with emphasize on my.

The two girls settled in on the couch together and began watching the movie. By the time it ended it was eleven and Dawn was too tired to do anything else so she went upstairs to bed, leaving Buffy to clean.

"You know, she's probably not even tired, she just doesn't want to clean." Buffy grumbled. By the time she was finished cleaning she was ready to go to sleep but the doorbell rang.

Buffy went to go answer it and was pleasantly surprised. "'Ello Blondie" Spike said as he gave her a kiss. Buffy smiled contently.

"Hey, what are you doing back so early" Buffy questioned as she wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Well the conference ended today and I was planning on coming back tomorrow but I just missed you so much. I mean this was the longest three days of my life" Spike said as he kissed his was down her neck.

"Uhh" Buffy moaned "Longest?"

"Longest" Spike stated.

"Well how about we go up in my room and make up for it" Buffy asked.

"Upstairs sounds great" Spike said as he carried her up into her room for a long night.
