Willow bounded down the stairs to the kitchen. Xander, Dawn, Anya and Buffy were already in there talking.

"So anyway, this guy goes 'I have lung cancer and only have three days to live'. Please, as if! He was smoking as he told me!" Buffy was explaining the night before.

"Well, you could do what I do. Fall in love. Leave. Show up at their basement a few months later and have sex." Anya said, Xander grinning at her.

"Hey guys! Good morning." Willow walked in, grabbing a pancake.

"Morning Will!" They chorused.

"So, Buff, what's on the agenda today?" Xander asked, pouring some strawberry syrup on his pancake.

"Well, I thought I'd start off with going on the Internet, and signing up for one of online dating things." She announced proudly.

"Oh Buffy, don't do that! You never know if you'll end up with a weirdo." Dawn groaned.

Buffy snorted into her bacon. "That's hilarious. Anything would be better than my last 3 boyfriends."

"True, very true. So, you'll be on the Web all day?" Willow asked, chewing.

"Nah, tonight I thought we could all go to that new bar/club 'The 88'. They are sure to have TONS of good looking normal guys." Buffy concluded, doing the dishes.

"Sounds fun. But I got to run, but I'll be here around lunch. Bye all!" Xander said, he and Anya walked out the door.

Buffy turned on the radio to her favorite station: Love Hurts 24. She was driving to the college library to use the computers. She sure as hell wasn't going to be cooped up inside all day.

"Oh, I will survive! As long as I have love, I know I'll be alive!" She sang along to the lyrics before stopping at a stop sign.

A rather handsome young man was walking across the street.

No, it couldn't be, could it? She watched him walk as the light turned green. Riley Finn had just passed her.

When she arrived at the library, she immediately put Riley out of her mind.

She sat at a desk and logged on the Internet. When she got there, she went to Yahoo and typed in Online Dating. The first site that popped up was (I don't know if that's a real web site but if it is I don't own it). She clicked on Register and put in her name, address, everything. Then an Instant Message popped up.

Hi I am Robby, want to chat?

She typed in: Sure I'm Buffy BTW.

They talked for a good hour before setting up a date, Wednesday, 9 o'clock, The Coffee Beanery.

"There we go, that wasn't so hard." She said to herself.

When Buffy arrived home at 1:30, Dawn greeted her.

"So, Buffy, when are we going to go?" She smiled eagerly.

"WE are not going anywhere. This is grown up night." Buffy walked upstairs. Dawn followed.

"Oh c'mon Buffy! This morning you said WE could go."

"I know, and by that I mean, me, Willow, Anya and Xander."

"Ugh, well, what am I supposed to do tonight?"

"I don't know! Oh, I'm going to have to find a babysitter for you. Maybe Clem is free." She walked into her room to take off her coat.

"A babysitter? Buffy, I am 15 and a ½. TOTALLY able to stay by myself."

Buffy wasn't listening. "Or maybe Tara. She's usually not busy."

Dawn rolled her eyes. "What about Spike?" She said sarcastically.

Buffy smiled. "Spike it is! I have to go by his crypt anyway, so it works out perfectly!"

Dawn's mouth dropped. "You totally tricked me!"

Buffy waved. "Bye Dawnster!"

And went to Spike's she did.

BANG!

Buffy kicked open the door to Spike's crypt.

"Spike, I know you're in here!"

"Slayer, have you ever heard of a thing called knocking? Add it to your vocabulary, okay?" He walked out from behind a pillar.

"What are you doing?" Buffy asked.

"Simple repairs really, been watching HGTV, the Home and Garden Network you know? And they had the most posh kitchens ever. I'm updating my kitchenette area. So, why have you come banging about?"

"I was not bang- I'm here to retrieve some clothing items I left here the other night." She cleared her throat.

"Damn right you did! And it's been messing up my kitchen aroma. So, get your knickers, and sod off." He returned to the kitchenette.

Buffy, clearly annoyed, walked to the bedroom and got her "undergarments."

Then she returned to the kitchenette.

"Spike?"

"What?! What could you possibly want now?"

"Would you baby-sit Dawn tonight? It would be around eight or so till probably midnight."

He turned towards her.

"Huh? Why should I do that? I have stuff to do, things to smell, kitchens to update."

"Spike, please."

"Okay, be there at seven forty five then, right?"

"Okay, see ya."

She walked out.

It was seven forty-nine, and Buffy was getting antsy.

"Why isn't he here? He should be here by now!"

She paced in front of the door.

"Buffy don't worry, he'll be here. But if he doesn't, can I stay by myself?" Dawn asked shrewdly.

Ding Dong!

"Damn it." Dawn muttered.

Buffy opened the door.

"Where have you been-" She stopped abruptly.

Outside, standing and waiting, was Spike, Riley and Angel. At the same place...at the same time.

"W-what the heck?!" The Slayer exclaimed. She rounded on Spike. "Spike, I didn't say to bring friends."

Spike held up his hands and laughed. "Oh no Slayer, these sodders ain't MY Company!"

She turned to the others. "Angel, Riley, why are you here?"

"To get you back." They both said at the same time, looking at each other.

"Boy, this could get fun!" Spike chuckled.

"Spike, inside now." Buffy said sternly.

Spike rolled his eyes. "Sure, let Spikey-poo miss all of the activities." He muttered as he walked past Buffy into the house.

Angel stared after him in disbelief. "Buffy, your letting him INSIDE YOUR HOUSE???"

"He's dangerous!" Riley added, his arms folded.

"Um, excuse me but I can take care of myself thank you very much." Buffy alleged coldly.

"B-but, but Buffy-"

"No! No but Buffy's! You just show up at my door and tell me how to live my life? Wrongo!" Buffy yelled, shaking her finger.

They were silent.

Buffy retained her composure.

"In any case, how would you not know if Spike was evil? It's not like you've exactly BEEN here." Buffy said quietly.

Riley started to yell. "Now stop there. I had to go to-"

"I know, Africa. Did ya have fun? Do you know how many nights I've prayed that you get trampled by an elephant? Hmm? You just left Riley Finn and in case you haven't noticed, my mom and I died in the amount of time you were gone. So whoopee, Kilimanjaro you." Buffy wiped tears out of her eyes then turned to Angel.

"And YOU sir just dumped me! Yeah! DUMPED ME. After all I did for you? Why, I went to hell and back to keep you. But do you show any appreciation? Hell no! So you run off to L.A with Cordelia and leave me here. Alone. In fact, Spike's the only one who's been around lately. So you blame me for letting him in? Think it over." She started to close the door, Riley and Angel pushed it open.

"Look, I'm not leaving until I talk to you." Angel replied.

"Yeah, me neither."

Spike smiled with pride. "Well, so sorry. But it'll just be me and the Nibblet tonight. So get lost."

Buffy shook her head in stress. She finally looked at them.

"Fine. You want to be arrogant little titibabys? Do it on your own time. I'll be back at 12." She turned to the dining room. "C'mon Will! Get Xander and Anya. We're ready to go." She called.

Willow came out seconds later with Xander and Anya. They silently walked out the door, glancing at Riley and Angel.

"Burn!" Anya coughed as she past them.

OK, okay, that chap was a short one. But I updated! More cumin! R&R!!! funnybunny7
