Chapter 8: Better Than Nothing
Buffy looked at the paper. "I can't believe this,"
Willow raised an eyebrow and walked towards the bed. "What is it?"
It's been a 2 weeks since Buffy's mother died. It hasn't been the same since.
"There evicting me from this room," She looked up to Willow. "I haven't paid my dues ever since my mom died," She frowned. "She always paid for me,"
Willow stood there shocked. "I can't believe it," She turned to Buffy. "What about your dad?"
Buffy rolled her eyes and dryly laughed. "He doesn't give a damn about me," She got up suddenly and began to pack her bags. "Well, I guess I just have to find a place to stay, for now on," She dropped the luggage onto her bed and looked at Willow. "It's just going to be me and Mr. Gordo in my car for a few days,"
Willow went up to Buffy and gave her a light hug. "I wish I could just do something,"
Buffy looked at Willow. "It's okay, but hey, maybe I could find a place with someone and invite you over and we can trash it," Buffy smiled.
Willow let out a laugh and smiled at Buffy. "I'm really going to miss you,"
Buffy sighed and nodded her head. "Me too,"
Willow smiled and helped Buffy pack her bags.
Buffy sighed and looked around the room. "Me too," She whispered.

"Spike you really need help around here," Oz scanned around Spike's place. "This place is a mess,"
Spike shrugged his shoulders. "Hey, what can you say for a struggling writer?"
Oz shook his head as his cell phone rang. He picked it up. "Hello...Hey baby...yeah I'm just at Spike's place...what...wow...that's bad...oh okay...talk to you soon..." He hung up the phone.
Spike sat on his couch and began flicking through the channels. "What happen this time?"
Oz leaned on the side of the couch. "Buffy really has been having a rough 2 weeks. She got kicked out of her place," Oz shook his head.
Spike raised an eyebrow. "Really?"
"Yeah," Oz then suddenly shot up and looked at Spike. "Why won't you let Buffy rent part of your room?"
Spike got up and narrowed his eyebrows. "Are you bloody well out of your bird?"
Oz smiled and let out a slight laugh. "No, she can pay half of the rent and actually help you out with his trashy place,"
Spike shook his head. "No," He walked over towards the kitchen.
Oz followed. "Come on Spike, it will do you good,"
Spike faced him and spat out. "No,"
Oz kept on begging. "Come on-"
Spike threw down his spoon and placed his hands on the counter. "Oz, I would never and I mean never bloody well live with a woman who drives me mad,"

"I can't believe I'm bloody doing this," Spike walked towards Buffy who was packing her stuff into the car.
Buffy began placing her things into the car when someone grabbed her by her shoulder. "Hey!" She turned around to see Spike. She pursed her lips and crossed her arms. "What do you want?"
"Come on goldilocks," He began taking her stuff out of her car. "You're coming with me," He grabbed her by the arm.
Buffy took her arm out of his grasp and narrowed her eyebrows. "Hey, this is called kidnapping,"
Spike shook his head. "No this is called Charity, now come on," He grabbed her again and began to drag her.
"Spike, what the hell you are doing!" She yelled.
He stopped and let go of her arm. "You got kicked out of your dorm right?"
Buffy put her hands on her hips and raised a questionable eyebrow. "How did you know?"
"Let's just say, Red tells Oz everything," He explained. "Well, just to let you know, I have a spare room in my apartment with satellite TV. and-"
"Wait," Buffy began to giggle. "Me...Move in with you?" Buffy lifted her head back and began to laugh.
Spike gave a smirk. "All right Goldilocks, suit yourself," He began to walk away.
Buffy then notice he was going away. "Wait," Buffy yelled to him.
Spike turned around and looked at Buffy.
Buffy bit her bottom lip. "You did say Satellite TV right?"
------
Buffy walked in the apartment and placed her bags down on the floor. "Wow, this place is laundry palace," She raised an eyebrow to Spike.
Spike walked over to the counter and placed his keys on there. "Just call it 'Home Sweet Home',"
Buffy began to look around the place look. She let out a sigh and spoke under her breath. "It's better than nothing,"
"And that's when you're right, Goldilocks," He said hearing Buffy as he opened a bottle of soda.
Buffy glanced over at him and gave him a questionable eyebrow.
"It is better than nothing, that's why there are rules," Spike smirked as he took a sip of his soda and leaned over the counter.
Buffy laughed slightly. "Rules?" She smirked. "What is this daycare?"
Spike began to walk towards her as Buffy's eyes followed.
"Well for you this is," He smirked as he faced her. "Rule Number One," He walked over the television and patted it. "No one watches the telly during Monday through Friday at 2 to 3 clock',"
Buffy crossed her arms. "And what's so great about that timing?"
Spike smirked. "Passions,"
Buffy try to hold in her laugh.
Spike just rolled his eyes. "Rule Number Two," He walked to face her. "Don't complain if you hear noises at night. Boy has to get his dessert at night," Spike said pursing his lips.
Buffy lifted her upper lip in disgust. "Ew, much?" She walked to the other side of the room and covered her ears. "Don't want to hear it,"
Spike smirked. "And Rule Number Three,"
Buffy placed her hands on her hips and tilted her head. "Obey the blood thirsty fiend at all time or you will die of noises at night?"
Spike walked quickly towards her backing her up against the wall. "Actually," He began to lean closer to her face.
Buffy body tensed up as she parted her lips to breath.
Spike smirked. "Don't get in my way," Spike stalked off towards his room and closed the door behind him.
Buffy hung her head back and looked around the place. She shook her head. "And I picked this over my car?" She rolled her eyes and began to unpack her bags.
