Stowe Away

I rode on the back of the carriage. It started to snow about three hours before but I wasn't bothered by it. I had no body temperature, but I still was chilled.

All of a sudden, the carriage stopped. Spike stepped out and stretched. Angel got out of the carriage as soon as Spike was out of the way. They were about to get back in when Angel sniffed the air and stopped. He looked at Spike who also sniffed the air. I knew that they had caught my scent and jumped off the carriage. Spike looked over at me as I came around the corner to him.

"Bloody hell." He muttered and walked over to me. I motioned for him to pick me up and when he did, he gasped.

"You're freezing. Why did you follow? You were supposed to stay back so you wouldn't get hurt."

"I wanted to be with you." I said in a muffled voice through his coat. Spike shrugged and got into the carriage with Angel, once again, right behind him. I jumped onto the floor and, when Spike put his duster on the floor, curled around in it until I was comfortable and fell asleep.

Spike watched as I writhed in the coat to get comfortable and smirked. Angel looked over at him.

"What?"

"I remember when she did that for hours until she was finally comfortable." He laughed. Angel smiled himself. This was not a regular smile but a sincere smile. Spike glanced out the window. Through the darkness, he could see trees all around the carriage as I started to slow. The driver got down and opened the door to lean in. Angel looked at him in suspicion. The driver noticed this and backed up a few feet.

"Sorry sir. This is as far as you go. There is a pub and lodge a quarter of a mile down. They don't allow carriages after dark for, circumstantial reasons. Hmm." He cleared his throat and looked between them. Spike glared at him and got up. The driver backed up even more, concerned for his own safety. Spike bent over, picked me up, and got out, followed by Angel. The driver hurriedly got on the drivers seat and pulled away.

I looked up at Spike and yawned.

"Guess its time for bed huh?" he said quietly. I smiled and closed my eyes once again.

Angel led the way to the pub and lodge through the snow-covered ground. Once inside the lodge, Angel booked a room and led Spike up to that room. The room wasn't the best looking room in the room but it had two beds. Spike lay me down on one side and lay down on the other side himself.

"I'm too tired to do anything else. Wake me at daybreak." He threw his boots and shirt off and got under the covers and fell asleep. Angel lay down and started dreaming as soon as his eyes shut.
