"So you got a paper cut and your cat just licked off the blood?" Xander tried to understand for the thousandth time.

"Yeah, then I got my mirror and the cat had no reflection."

"Who would turn a defenseless little kitty?" Willow said.

"Well I could look in my books for anything about doing rituals for turning cats." Giles slipped off his glasses and cleaned them for the a millionth time.

"It's probably a vengeance spell." Anya said (Author: Isn't Anya like the smartest person in the group?)

"I thought w-when you d-d-did a vengeance spell you turn them into something horrible not something so cute." Tara looked down at the purring cat in her lap.

Always liked this witch, never knew why, I just did.

"So that's why you had him a cage with a blanket over it?" Xander asked.

"Yep." Buffy looked at the kitty, he reminded her of someone. Knock-Knock

Giles went to the door. "Hello Riley, come in."

"Hi, everyone. Buffy did you get my card?" Riley said as he sat next to Buffy on Giles' couch.

"Oh, sorry I got sidetracked by my new vamp-cat." Buffy said smiling at Spike still urled up in Tara's lap.

"A vamp-cat?" Riley looked so confused.

Stupid wanker, card-board, farm-boy, Stealing-Buffy. Person. Spike thought as he put his hand on buffy's hand.

"Yeah he's a cat who's a vampire!" Xander said like he was the smartest person in the world.

"You think I could bring him back to the lab?" Riley asked.

Spike head popped up when Riley said that and he sprang on him and scratched him so hard that his arm started bleeding.

"OW!" Riley shouted.

Tara and Buffy caught Spike who instantly calmed down and curled back up into a ball in Buffy's lap. He started purring and rubbing his head against Buffy' leg. Which sent sparks up her leg.

"I think that's a definite NO Riley." Anya said looking up from her magazine.

"There's a First Aide in the bathroom Riley." Giles said pointing down the hall.

"Thanks Giles."

Riley walked down the hall, and shut the door.

"Well, we all know he likes Buffy and Tara." Anya said looking back down at the article that she was reading.

"Did you notice that when Riley said the word "LAB" he just panicked?" Willow asked.

"Well now we know that he's smart."

Spike's tail was moving up and down Buffy's arm. Buffy shivered and was shocked to see that liked what the cat was doing to her.

I must be crazy. Buffy thought and she absently-minded petted Spike.

I could stay this way forever.
