Sorry for the long wait, I hope you stick with this story, its moving on pretty quickly

Chapter 2: Birthday

Once Buffy, Xander, Willow and Tara got to the Bronze, Buffy instantly started looking for her dream guy, and was disappointed to find he was not there.

"Come on birthday girl, time for cake." Xander shouted over the music to Buffy as Willow pulled her over to a table.

"Yey cake, and presents." Buffy said happily as they found a table.

Once Buffy had opened all her presents they all danced for a while, they went back to sit down.

"Hey Buff, check out lover boy." Xander said pointing over to the corner.

Buffy looked to see Spike, locked in a passionate kiss with some girl.

Buffy felt tears well up in her eyes; she furiously wiped them away and stood up. "Err guys I'm just going to... the bathroom." She said running off.

"Buffy!" Willow called after her.

"Xander that was mean." Tara said.

"What?"

"You know what, you know how she feels about him." Willow said.

"He doesn't deserve the affections of a girl like Buffy." Xander said.

Buffy looked at herself in the mirror, she had tears coming down her face 'God I can't be like this, not on my birthday.' She thought wiping her face and redoing her make up.

Once done she stepped out the bathroom and looked at her friends, she then looked at Spike, who was now talking to the girl with his hand resting on the wall above her head.

Buffy walked to the bar and sat on a stool. "Hey is this seat taken?"

Buffy looked up to see Riley Finn looking down at her. "Err no, its not," She said.

"So what a hot girl like you doing here all on your own?" Riley said.

"Well it's my birthday and my friends are over there but I just felt like being over here for a while." Buffy said.

"Well birthday girl, let me get you a drink, it's Buffy right?" He said she nodded and he waved over the barman.

"Can I have a beer and a vodka and coke?" Riley said handing him some bills. The bar man put the drinks on the bar and gave Riley his change.

"Drink up." Riley said. Buffy looked at her drink then back at Riley.

"Err Riley you put vodka in that, I don't drink." She said pushing it away.

"Oh come on, its your birthday, live a little" He said putting his arm around her

Buffy looked at Riley, then around at Spike who was kissing the girl again. Buffy turned backed to her drink and downed it in one; she slammed the glass back down and said: "Another."

After a couple more drinks, Buffy went over to Xander, Willow and Tara and told them to go and that Riley was taking her home, as it was nearly past their curfew. Buffy assured Willow that she was fine and that Riley was taking her home, what Buffy didn't say was the fact Riley had been buying her coke with a lot of vodka in it. After an hour Buffy was very very drunk.

"I want to dance." Buffy slurred to Riley.

"Come on then gorgeous," He said taking her hand.

Once Buffy got on the floor she was a different kind of Buffy, she lost herself to the music.

Spike sat at a near by table and watched her as the crowd parted and watched her erotic movements. She stood in the middle of the dance floor, hands above her head, hips drawing figure eights in time to the rhythm, small pops at the end flicking up the hem of the dress's short skirt. Slowly she rotated, presenting all angles to the crowd, her hips never stopping their sensual circling. Eyes closed and head tilted back, she ran one hand down her breast and over her stomach to caress down her leg, then both hands coasted up her thighs, pushing the skirt up to reveal the lace tops of her stockings, the white silk tabs of the garters holding them up and the white triangle of silk covering her sex. Her fingers caught at the tabs and released them with an almost audible snap.

Spike was torn between wanting to grab her off the floor and wanting to see how far she would go. Spike looked over at Riley and saw the predatory look in his eye. Everyone watched as she turned again, presenting her backside to everybody. Her right hand lifted the left side of her skirt, revealing one tanned cheek to the audience.

'Fuck!' Spike thought, she was wearing a thong.

For the first time, she looked at Spike. Her eyes were heavy with seduction, and with a wicked grin.

He growled softly and knew he had had enough of the show and went out for a smoke.

Riley on the other hand wanted to see more but wanted it in private, Spike didn't see as Riley pulled Buffy in to a corner.

"That was so hot Buffy," He said pushing her up against the wall

"Well I'm glad you like it, now lets get another drink," Buffy said trying to move but he just pressed up against her.

"I don't think you really want that do you Buffy, can you feel what that little performance did for me?" Riley said, rubbing against her.

"Err Riley I'm not very comfortable with this." Buffy said instantly sobering up and trying to move away from him only to find him holding her back.

"Come on Buffy, I'll make it good for you." He whispered in her ear as he shoved his hand up down the top of her dress, roughly grabbing her breast.

Buffy instantly shoved him off her and ran out the club, she had tears coming down her face when she felt herself run into something solid.

She looked up to find the startling blue eyes of Spike. "Hey where you going in such a hurry pet?" He asked.

Buffy looked up at him in shock then started to hit him on his chest. "THIS IS ALL YOU FAULT!" She screamed then lost her balance and stumbled to the floor.

"Oh yeah, how's that darlin?" He said as he picked her up in his arms.

"If you hadn't come into my life I wouldn't have fallen in love with you and got jealous and when you were kissing that girl and let Riley give me that drink."

"Oh so you taking a drink from that dickhead makes it my fault?" He said still walking with her in his arms.

"Yeah, where are you taking me?" She said resting her head on his shoulder and closing her eyes.

"My car luv, gonna take you home."

"No, can't go home, mom will kill me" She said falling asleep on his shoulder.

"Ok, I'll take you to that little red heads house yeah?"

"Good, good little Willow, red...Spike?"

"Yes?"

"Will you marry me?" She asked in between sleep.

Spike chuckled and placed her in his car.

"Maybe when you sober pet," He said closing the door.

Spike with Buffy in his arms knocked on Willows window, Willow opened it and gasped.

"Oh my god Buffy, what did you do to her?" She said moving aside for Spike to come in.

"Nothing, she's just had too many drink is all." Spike said.

"Buffy, are you ok?" Willow asked.

Buffy woke up and lifted her head from Spike shoulder. "Hi Willow, I'm fine. Look who found me Willow, it's Spike," She said stroking Spike's hair.

"Yes I can see its Spike," Willow said. Spike placed Buffy on the bed and went to move away only to find she was clinging to his neck.

"Spike, you are so beautiful, isn't he beautiful Willow?" She said trying to pull him back down.

"Yes Buffy, now let Spike go." Willow said from behind.

"No don't want to let him go, I love him he's mine," She said still clinging to him.

"Buffy kinda cutting off my circulation here." He gasped.

"Don't leave me Spikey, stay with me," She said.

"If you let go I'll promise to come see you tomorrow." He said.

"Promise?" She said.

"Cross my heart" He said finally pulling her arms off him

"Mmmm Spike Spike Spike Spike, Buffy love Spike." Buffy babbled as she fell as sleep on Willows bed.

"Erm give her lots of water if she wakes up, and she'll probably be sick." Spike said before waving and jumping out the window

AN: Sorry if you like Riley but him being like this does have an important point to the rest of the story
