Spike Giles and his football buddies sat around "their" lunch table at Sunnydale High. All four guys were noted as the popular group and everyone wanted to be friends with them, every girl wanted them. Except one. One that was alone most of the time, Buffy Summers the "freak". He had known her since primary and they used to be close then according to him she changed and turned freak. Even her friend Willow had wanted him at some point, but not her and that bugged him. He stared at her sitting with her friend, dressed in a black mini skirt and tank top with her blonde hair put up. He had to admit that she was pretty and many times had been asked out.
"Spike?" Riley, one of his friends said. "Earth to Spike." He said again waving a hand in front of Spike's face.
"What?" Spike said.
"You were staring at Buffy." Angel said.
"No I wasn't." Spike said.
"You so were man, admit it, you want her." Xander said.
"I don't want anything that has to do with her." Spike said.
"Really? And what if there was a little cash involved?" Angel said.
"What are you saying?" Spike asked.
"A bet. I bet that you couldn't get Buffy to fall for you in one week." Angel said.
"Hey, I'm in on that." Riley said.
"Me too." Said Xander.
"Fine, but you see I will be the one rolling in money." Spike said smirking.
"I wouldn't count on that. Buffy isn't very nice to guys like us." Angel said and added. "Trust me I know."
"What? Angel you walked her home and she didn't kiss you. How is that not nice?" Xander asked.
"Ya, she also kicked me somewhere." Angel added.
"Owe man, that girl's got some issues." Riley said. "But nothing Spike cant handle right Spike? I mean you went out with Dru for how long? A year? That girl is physco."
"So its on? One week you get Buffy to fall for you and you win. But if you don't or she finds out about the bet we get the cash. Deal?" Angel asked.
"Deal." They all said.

Buffy Summers sat at the lunch table next to her best friend Willow. She noticed Spike staring at her and it made her shiver. He thought he was so cool and made every girl fall at his feet, but not her. Buffy didn't like Spike, ever since they hit junior high when he changed into a mean, preppy, football freak. Him and his football buddies practically ruled the school, even the teachers gave them good grades because they were football players. Willow was saying something but Buffy had zoned out when she felt Spike's eyes on her. Willow noticed a couple minutes later and hit her friend.
"Buffy did you here anything I just said?"
"Yeah, you were saying something about Oz." Buffy guessed.
"Wrong, guess again." Willow said.
"The Bronze?" When she got a blank look from her friend she guessed again. "School?"
"Wrong! Buffy I was telling you about how my mom kicked my brother out and he needs a place to stay, could he with you? Just for a bit I mean your mom is away. And you wouldn't want him telling my mom where I was that night that me and you were out . . ." Willow said.
"Will! Don't even remind me." She said with a laugh. "I don't know though, your brother kind of freaks me out no offense." Buffy said, concentrating back on her lunch.
"Oh none taken, he gives me the heebie jeebies too. But could he?" Willow asked pleadingly.
"Fine, but you have to sleepover a lot and I mean a lot." Buffy said.
"Thank you thank you!" Willow yelled and gave her friend a hug. "So, Spike staring at you again?"
"Yeah, why does he? Like do I have something on my face? Maybe he's just mad cause I don't like him. I mean every girl in the school has, even you. So maybe that's it." Buffy said.
"Yeah and he's kind of coming over here right now." Willow said.
"What?" Buffy said looking over to where he was sitting, except he wasn't there anymore he was on his way over to their table.
He sat across from the two girls. "Hello."
"What do you want?" Buffy said coldly.
"Just to say hi." Spike answered.
"Look at that you did, now you can leave." Willow said.
"Willow, would you excuse us?" He said.
"No." Willow said in a harsh tone.
The bell rang and the two girls got up and walked away. Spike's friends came over to him and sat around him.
"Better luck next time." Xander said before they all walked off to class.
~*~
"Buffy wait up!" Spike yelled to her but Buffy ignored his call for the tenth time and continued walking. "Buffy!" He finally caught up to her and she stopped.
"What?" She said rather impatiently.
"I wanted to ask you some."
She cut him off. "No."
"But you."
"No." She cut him off again.
"Just let me talk pet, please." He begged.
"Two minutes." She said looking at her watch.
"I was just wondering if you wanted to go to the dance with me tonight?" He asked.
"Let me think about that . . .no." She said before starting to walk off again.
He ran after her. "Come on Buffy, why not?"
"One, I don't go to dances, two I don't go to dances with you." She said. "Now leave me alone before I kick you in your balls." She said seriously.
"Calm down pet, no need for that." He said, putting his hands up. "Just let me take you. I promise you'll have fun." He pleaded.
"No Spike, just leave me alone alright?" Buffy asked, less harshness in her tone, more sadness.
"Something wrong?" Spike asked, concerned.
"No. Why?" Buffy said, confused.
"I don't know, you have that look you get." He said.
"What look? I don't get a look." She said.
"Yes you do, the one you get when something's up. Buffy we used to be best friends." He said.
"Yeah, key word there is used." She said.
"Well, still we had something, cant you just go to this one dance with me? You don't have to stay with me and you can leave after awhile." He said.
"I see now." Buffy said.
"See what?" He asked nervously. 'Does she know?' He asked himself.
"The only reason you want me to go to this dance is so that you can win a bet." She said.
"N-No, why would you think that pet?" He said.
"I'll go." She said, shocking Spike. "Only because I'd rather you win then your friends, it's either you or them right?"
"Thank you." He said and went to give her a hug but she backed away.
"Touch me and you'll regret it." She said and walked off.
~*~*~*~
Buffy was lying on her bed listening to music when her phone rang. "Hello?"
"Hi, is Buffy there?" A guys voice asked.
"Hey." Buffy said.
"Hello, its Spike." He said.
"Thought so, what do you want?" She asked.
"Just to know if you were ready." He said innocently.
"Yeah well I've been thinking . . ." She said. "I'm not to sure about this whole dance thing. I mean I don't want to be a part of your bet, whether you win or not."
"Look pet I don't know what you've heard but there's no bet. I just fancy you and wanted to take you out on a date but hey if you don't feel the same way then . . ." He said.
"Fine, I'll stay for three songs then I'm gone." She said.
"Will you dance?" He asked.
"With you? No." Buffy said.
"Oh come on pet, you might as well not go at all." Spike said.
"Alright. I like that plan." Buffy said.
"That's not what I meant. One dance? Of your choice?" He asked.
"I'll see and that's all I'm saying." She said.
"Good enough. See you tonight then?"
"Yeah." Buffy said and hung up.
~*~
The brown building looked small from the outside but inside it contained many teenagers. Buffy waited outside the door for Spike. She could hear the music coming from the inside and wanted to leave. Going to dances wasn't her thing and she didn't know why of all people she was going with Spike. She noticed him and a few of his friends heading towards her.
"Hello." He said.
"Hi." Buffy said.
"You look . . .wonderful." Spike said looking her up and down.
She was in a pair of skater pants and a hoody.
"Right . . ." Buffy said and looked from one friend to another.
"Oh yeah this is . . ." He started.
"I know who they are Spike. Can we get this over with?" She said.
"Sure." Spike said and the six walked in.
Chairs were scattered around the open space and couples flooded the room. Angel and his girlfriend Cordelia went to dance along with Xander and his girlfriend Anya.
"Want to sit?" Spike asked Buffy.
"Alright." She said and sat in between Riley and Spike.
The three sat there in silence before Buffy kind of excused herself to go to the bathroom. Riley moved over closer to Spike.
"Good job at getting her here."
"Yeah well lets see if we can make her stay." Spike said.
"Are you going to ask her to dance?" Riley asked.
"When the time is right." He said.
Riley looked at him and then to Buffy who was on her way back. He slid back to his chair and watched the couples dance. Spike leaned over to Buffy.
"Want to dance?"
"Not really." She said looking him in the eyes.
"Why not?" He asked.
"Not in the mood to dance." She said.
"Tell me when you are and we will." He said.
"What is wrong with you?" She asked looking at him oddly.
"What do you mean pet?"
"You ask me to a dance, and now you want to dance with me. If I didn't know better I'd think you liked me but see I do know better. What's up?" She asked.
"N-Nothing. I do like you." Spike said and Buffy laughed. "How is that funny?"
"Never mind." Buffy said.
"Well then?"
"What? Oh, dancing, no. That's for couples, we're not a couple." Buffy said.
"Not yet." Riley said, purposely wanting Buffy to hear.
"Shut up." Spike said.
"Sorry man, just trying to help."
"'S not helping." Spike said.
"Spike?" Buffy asked. "I'll dance, if we can ditch this place after?"
"We?" Spike and Riley said in union.
"Well, I-I mean me." Buffy said.
"Right but you still owe me two more dances." Spike said.
"Well I'll take you to one of my places and I can give you your dances there okay?"
"'S a deal."
~ Okay people. I know I shouldn't put this up cause I already have a lot of stories. But I just like putting stories up . . . I have a problem . . . Anyways, I had this on my other account but since I don't go on that anymore I switched it to this one. So if you read it on the other name don't be like you stole it. K? Just thought I'd clear that up. So review ~
