Chapter 6: Deceit
Buffy had on a little black skirt and a burgundy v-neck and was walking towards the club Before Dawn.There she went back to the familiar back alley and knocked the door. A big man opened and nodded at her and without even looking at him she stepped into the hallway and made her way to the only door at the end of it.
There she turned the doorknob and stepped into the office.
Adam was sitting in his leather chair and smoking a cigarette. As she scanned the room she saw grumpy leaning against a wall.
"Probably hasn't healed yet.Good. Stupid bastard."She thought.
"You're late." Adam said without turning himself to her yet.
"I had things to do." she said giving him a look which he obviously didn't see but feel.
"Alright.Just don't do anything stupid. I wouldn't want to hurt you."
She stepped up to his desk and took a cigarette from the pack. Then she lit it up and inhaled deeply.
"So what's the news?" she asked before falling into a chair.
"Nothing you have to concern your pretty little head with."
"I'm part of this and I'm the link to him now tell me before I get pissed off."
"What's with all the swearing?" Adam said now turning his chair so that he was facing her.
"Look just cut the crap and tell me what the hell is going on!" she was furious now.
"Ok ok, I've had my eye on an ancient cross that was delivered to San Francisco. Apparently its worth over 5 Million American Dollars."
Buffy whistled in astonishment." Big doh.So what do you want me to do?"the question was obvious but Buffy just loved asking him.
"Get it for me." he said greed in his eyes.
"What's in it for me?" Buffy answered. She wasn't going to do this for free.
"Well discuss that after I've made the other agreements."
"Do you think Ill trust you?"
"Baby. Have I ever broken a promise?"
Buffy smirked. What did she have to lose? Everything, but what the hell.
"Deal." she stretched out her hand and Adam shook it.
"Deal." he said.
Secretly he smirked.

Buffy quietly slipped into the apartment. She took off her shoes and tip-toed to the bedroom. She opened the door holding the handle so that it didn't make a sound.
"What do you think your doing?" Spike said calmly.
"Oh, hi baby. I didn't want to wake you." Buffy said smiling sweetly.
"What are you planning?" he asked suspiciously.
"What do you mean?" she said innocent and walked to the kitchen.
Spike stopped her by grabbing her hand.
"Don't you fuck me over." He said looking deeply into her eyes.
Buffy was shocked at how Spike just swore. He had never swore before nevertheless at her.
"I don't now what your problem is but whatever it is get over it." she pulled away from his grip.
"Might I remind you that you are still under the arrest of the police department?"
"Might I remind you that I don't give a shit?"She said opening the fridge and taking out a water. She started drinking it but Spike snatched it out of her hand.
"Well you should. I could lock you back into the dirty little cell you belong in."
Buffy just stood there.
"Buffy. I'm sorry I didn't mean..."
"Yes you did. You might think I'm trash but you are the one that loves it just a little too much." She stormed out of the apartment slamming the door hard behind her.
She ran down the hallway crying.
Never could he find out that she could be hurt by words like that.
Never.

"Well how nice of you to meet me here Mrs..."
"My name is not important. Just tell me what I have to do and I'll do it."
"Well alright let's get to business then."
"But you promise to give me the information I want?"
"Trust me. I've never broken a promise."

Spike was walking out on the streets. He was thinking about what he had said a few hours ago.
"What have I done?"
Spike never noticed the woman he ran into.
"Oh I'm sorry."
"Never mind. I do that sometimes."
"What?" he asked puzzled.
"Think about someone that's very important to me and bump into something."
"Oh....yeah.Well sorry again" he said giving her a smile.
"She must mean a lot to you." she said before walking off.
Spike just looked after her.
"Maybe she does." he thought before continuing to walk.

Buffy didn't come home until late at night and she just heard the phone ring when she stepped into the door.
She answered it after thinking about who could be on the other line.
"Spikes line" she said and wondered if it sounded too much like a chat line. Before she reassured herself that it was fine a voice answered.
"Buffy?"
It was Spike.
"Yeah it's me."
"We have some new information on Adam. They want you to come to the police station and take a look at what we found out."
"Alright.I'll be there in 15 minutes."

Buffy was walking up the steps to the police station.
She made her way to the familiar office and opened the door.
"Knocking would be great." Spike said without looking up from a stack of photos in his hands. Kevin and Brad where sitting on chairs in the room.
"I don't knock. I just enter."
"Well learn."
"Whatever" she said and sat down on one of the chairs.
"We had a private detective working for us and today he took pictures of our friend Adam. He was doing some business with somebody we have no records on."
Spike handed her the photos and Buffy looked at them.
Her words caught in her throat.
"Buffy? What is it?" Spike asked worried.
"It's Dawn."
