Word of the Day 100 Challenge: Pike, shirk, caltrop, armistice
Feint

Spike leant across the table, his lips close to Dawn's ear. "You're not piking on me, are you, love?"
Never one to shirk from a challenge, Dawn crossed to the counter and made her purchase. Package in hand, she left the store, returning ten minutes later without it.
A curious Xander queried Anya and, when she explained exactly what caltrops were, he ran for his truck, shrieking like a girl.
Anya eyed Spike and Dawn in suspicion. They'd collapsed against each other in laughter, as Xander had left, the intact package between them. It looked like the armistice was over.
