"Morning" Spike whispered into Buffy's ear as she woke up.
Buffy smiled to him as she covered her mouth with Spike's comforter. "Morning" She said quietly.
Spike went in to give her a kiss and she pulled away. "What?" Spike asked concerned.
"Morning breath" Buffy said shyly and Spike laughed at her answer, feeling relieved she didn't regret last night.
"I don't care" Spike said pulling the blanket down, "All I care about is giving my girl a kiss"
Buffy reluctantly let him give her a kiss and smiled to him as she pulled away. "See that wasn't so bad" Spike said as he rolled on top of her.
"Not at all" Buffy agreed, "But I have to go"
"Why?" Spike asked feeling concern rise in him yet again.
"Dawn's at home by herself" Buffy said regretfully.
"She can stay home by herself can't she?" Spike asked hopefully.
"Would you want to see your mom coming home in the morning after a night out with a guy?" Buffy questioned with a pointed look.
"You're not her mom." Spike said even though he got the point of the question.
"I gotta go" Buffy said as she gave him a last kiss and got her clothes on.
"Bye" Spike said as he stared sadly at her retreating form.
Spike walked into the kitchen a little later, after he had taken his shower, to see Wesley sitting at the kitchen table eating some sausage and toast.
"Mornin'" Spike greeted tiredly.
"Hey" Wes greeted tearing his eyes away from the Sunnydale Times, "Saw Buffy leave this morning."
"Sorry about that" Spike said as he poured himself a glass of orange juice.
"Don't worry" Wes said "I had my first date with Fred last night"
"How was it?" Spike inquired curiously.
"Great, we had dinner at her place then went for a walk along the beach by her house."
"Sounds nice" Spike said.
"It was" Wes said quickly adding, "Not as nice with your date with Buffy though"
"Ha, ha" Spike sarcastically said catching Wes's pointed look, "What can I say I've always moved quick"
"Do you like her? You know enough not to hurt her?" Wes asked Spike knowing full well that when he has to go on tour it would be especially hard on her. Not knowing what her boyfriend was doing in some foreign country.
"I think so" Spike answered truthfully, "I mean she's funny, smart, beautiful, kind, caring . . .god she's just amazing."
"Good" Wes said as he picked up his dishes and took them to the sink, "Then don't hurt her"
With that Wes walked into the bathroom to go get ready for the day ahead of him leaving Spike with his last words. Spike didn't want to hurt Buffy, he'd rather die, but he knew this whole rock star thing would cause tension in them, if not now, later. He would hate for her to become resentful or bitter towards him, but he wanted to be with her so bad.
Spike was starting to get frustrated with himself and just wanted to see Buffy. She had to watch Dawn though, maybe tonight though . . .
And with that Spike made a plan for surprising Buffy with an extra special date tonight.
***Buffy's House***
As Buffy quietly entered her house and turned into the kitchen some very anxious looking faces greeted her.
"Hey Buff" Xander waved with a goofy smile on his face.
"Where have you been?" Cordy asked with a sly smile.
"Out" Buffy said casually.
"Out, all night?" Dawn asked knowing full well where Buffy had been and what she had been doing.
"Yeah, so what? I'm an adult," Buffy said nonchalantly.
"But you're also my guardian. And last night I didn't know what to do without you" Dawn said in a fake whiney voice.
"Sorry, I'll make sure to leave you directions on how to use the television and microwave next time I go out" Buffy said sarcastically as she opened the refrigerator looking for some breakfast.
"Next time?" Willow asked breaking her silence.
"Yes, next time I have to go to the library to catch up on my studies and end up getting caught up in the gaining of the knowledge."
"What were you studying" Cordy asked, "How to get laid?"
"Cordy" Buffy yelled throwing her a glare.
"What?" Cordelia questioned innocently.
"I'm allowed to go out for one night out of the year and not have to tell any of you where I was." Buffy said feeling frustrated.
"She's right" Anya chipped in, "If Buffy wants to go boink a hot rock star she should be allowed."
"Yeah, Hey!" Buffy shouted.
"What? Are you telling me you stayed out all night and didn't boink him?" Anya asked.
At this question Buffy blushed, "I knew it" Cordy stated triumphantly.
"Don't worry Buffy" Tara said breaking her silence, "If you wanna go out once in a while you can just tell me and I'll watch Dawn for you."
Buffy smiled at Tara, "Thanks"
"I could also baby-sit if you want" Xander offered, "Me and Dawn can have another Life tournament, it's been a while since the last one"
"Yeah and that is because I kicked your ass!" Dawn said gleefully.
"Language" Buffy scolded.
"You know we're just giving you a hard time, because that's what best friends do," Cordelia said with a grin.
"If so then I don't really want best friend." Buffy said jokingly.
"Oh come on, you love us" Willow said as she gave Buffy a hug.
"I know" Buffy said as she returned the hug, soon there was a big group hug, dynamic thing going on.
"You guys are pathetic" Dawn said as she walked out of the room to go watch some T.V. The group then broke apart looking bashful for a minute then shrugging it off and hugging again.
The gang decided to hang out at Buffy's house that day and was later joined by Oz. They all decided to have a board game tournament, after Xander brought it up it sounded fun.
They decided to play Scrabble, Life, Candy Land, Hi Ho Cherrio, Chutes and Ladders, and Twister. Technically Twister was not a board game but a whole lot of fun.
They played games until around six o'clock when they all started to get hungry.
"Who's up for pizza?" Xander asked as his stomach growled.
Everyone's hand shot up. "Ok, I'll go get some, one with cheese, one with everything, one with all meats imaginable, and my personal favorite . . . pineapples and anchovies, with extra cheese." Xander said receiving disgusted looks from the gang.
"I'll go with you" Oz offered.
"OK, ready" Xander asked pulling himself up from the floor and receiving a nod of the head from Oz. As the two opened the door a slightly surprised Spike was standing there.
"Is Buffy here?" Spike asked.
"Buff" Xander called as he held out his hand, welcoming Spike into the house.
"Yeah" Buffy said as she entered the hallway and saw a very, very handsome looking Spike standing there.
"'Ello luv" Spike said shyly.
"Hey" Buffy said with equal shyness.
"I was wondering if I could take you out tonight?" Spike questioned nervously.
Buffy turned towards the entrance of the living room to see all the girls standing there giving her the thumbs up.
"Well, I was gonna stay here and have pizza with my friends, but if they don't mind . . . " Buffy trailed off.
"No, we don't mind at all" Cordy quickly filled in for her, "Feel free to go Buff"
"Nice to know I'm so wanted" Buffy said sarcastically. "So what did you have in mind?"
"Surprise" Spike answered.
"Well just give me a minute to change, okay?" Buffy asked.
"Sure, I'll wait" Spike said with a smile.
"Ok, girls would you mind helping me?" Buffy asked throwing them a 'please help me find something to wear when I have no clue what he has in mind' look.
With that all the girls except Dawn were up the stairs, Dawn chose to stay down and talk, or stare at Spike.
Anya, Willow, Tara, and Cordelia all helped Buffy find an outfit that was semi-formal and semi-casual.
"How do I look?" Buffy asked standing in front of them in a pair of white cargo capris, black heels and a black halter-top.
"Great" Cordy said with an approving smile.
"He's gonna swoon" Willow said also smiling.
Buffy turned to Tara and Anya and got a nod and smile from Tara and saw that Anya was cleaning under her nails. Oh well she thought, three out of four isn't so bad.
Buffy walked down the stairs to see Dawn and Spike laughing about something.
"You ready?" Buffy asked interrupting the two's conversation.
Spike looked up and saw Buffy standing there looking gorgeous, "You look amazing luv, let's go"
"Okay" Buffy said as Spike linked together the pair's arms. He opened the door for her to reveal a startled looking man.
Buffy ran into the man's arms embracing him in a tight hug. The man looked like he was in a little pain but had a huge smile on his face when Buffy hugged him.
"What are you doing here?" Buffy asked with a smile.
"Boss told me that I could take a little break and I thought to myself what do I wanna do? And the first thing that popped into my mind was Buffy Summers." The man answered.
"Oh my god! I missed you so much!" Buffy yelled happily throwing herself into his arms yet again.
Spike was getting rather annoyed with her behavior and decided to interrupt the two by tapping Buffy on the shoulder."
"Oh, I'm so sorry Spike. Spike this is Lindsey, Lindsey this is Spike" Buffy said introducing the two.
