"What are you doing here Luv?" Spike yawned as he arrived back at his crypt from Patrolling with Faith to find Buffy.
"I just wanted to see how your first patrol alone with Faith went and to complain about the pop quiz in history."
"Giles warned you to finish your homework. Now I really got to finish grading those quizzes before I crash. Vampires need sleep, that's why no one sees us during the day, alright it's the whole daylight issue, but this whole teaching thing is throwing off my sleep."
"Well I was thanking that if I did badly on the exam my teacher would consider an extra credit assignment involving close personal attention or if by some miracle I did do well my boyfriend would like to help me celebrate. Either way, I'm happy."
"You did fine on the test, but I think we have a problem."
"You have a sexy girlfriend coming on to you and you think we have a problem."
"Have you seen where Faith lives?"
"No, she hasn't exactly invited me over for a slayer slumber party yet. Can we not talk about Faith."
"She's living in that sleazy motel on the edge of town."
"Yeah that place is gross. Everything smells like two week old wino. Hey, vampires and demons sometimes shack up there too, besides Angel had his own place. But if it will make you feel better I'll ask Mom if Faith can come live with us."
"Really?"
"Of course, Mom will love having another Slayer around the house. Plus, you might spend more time over there."
"I'd like that." Spike smiled
"Good then we can get with the kissage." Buffy pouted. They kiss for several minutes.
"I'm still worried about Xander's quiz score. I'm beginning to believe that he ate that pig two years ago, because he was jealous that it was smarter than him."
Buffy glared at him, "I give up. I am so sick of Mr. Trenton this and Mr. Trenton that. Plus all the time you need to give to Faith. There's just not enough time in your busy schedule for me."
"Luv, we just have to get into a new routine. This is only the first week. I swear it'll get better."
"Promise?"
"I'm not going to let anything come between us." Spike assured her with a deep kiss. "So is the fight over?"
"Were we fighting?"
