Thank you sooo very much, spbangel, funkydevil206 e Buffycoo999, I'm so glad that you like it!

Well no romance for now, it will come later, much later, for now our dear blondies still think that they 'hate ' each other.. ;)

PART 4 (It refers to ' Lover's walk ')

Spike bent on her… but he fell asleep senseless, overwhelmed by the alcohol.

"I'd never thought I'd say this someday, but.. God bless scotch!" Buffy exclaimed in a whisper, pushing Spike off of her and turning him with his back on the ground, without any chance of him waking up.

-- Well, I guess now I'll come back and…-- she thought getting up, but she stared at the senseless vampire. Although he still wore his game-face, that vision touched her.

-- After all, he's like that just because he is in pain for love… and you're a member of the same club… on the other hand, he's always a vampire, a bad vampire who tried to kill you countless times, the last one just about two minutes ago… he deserves that, I should kill him…--

Another gaze, more guilty and compassion.

-- I'll do things that way: I won't kill him, God only knows why, I'll go and leave him alone. Maybe he'll recover and escape before sunrise…--

Another glimpse at the bleached blond, a more detailed one, with consequent pangs to her stomach.

-- Oh, damn it! Hello heart? Where are you? Not even my worst enemy deserves that!-- she said resolutely to herself, lifting him up by an arm and putting it on her shoulders to place him inside his car.

After that, she took the towline in the jeep's trunk, and she attached it to the less lucky car.

She stopped nearby Revello Drive, unhooked the towline and parked her mother's car.

She got inside the house, giving her mom the dress as quickly as she could, found an excuse to leave again and she went away, not before taking something fundamental from her room.

Relieved that Joyce hadn't checked out the jeep, Buffy sprayed the metallic paint on the car, noticing joyfully that the scratches were completely hidden.

--Eh, eh: the perfect crime! -- she thought satisfied.

She came back where she had parked the Desoto and its owner inside who hadn't recovered yet.

--And now? Still wonder what the hell made me help him! I should take him to the warehouse before sunrise..--

Then, she noticed the car key that popped out of Spike's shirt pocket.

-- … or better, I should drive him there! After all, when will I ever get a chance like this again? --

An evil smile crossed her face, as she snatched the keys from the pocket with extreme caution.

"Desoto, now you're mine!" she exclaimed, inserting the keys in the proper fissure, turning them on and setting the precious vehicle in motion.

She remembered perfectly where the old warehouse was. After all, the last time she went there was when Spike had come back, creating trouble as always.

-- And it's also the time he opened my eyes about Angel. Angel.. how could I fool myself so bad? Spike was right: he and I will never be friends… but I wonder why he said we would fight… Angel and I have never fought, maybe he meant Angelus…--

She stopped thinking about that as she arrived.

She was a little upset due to the fact the travel had been too short.

She was growing fond of that car, she would drive it endlessly.

She heard some noises coming from the inside of the building, and she realized someone was there.

Buffy got off the car and she headed towards the warehouse: there were just three vampires, and it took only a glance from her to realize they were fledglings.

"I'm terribly sorry to disturb you, but the master of this mansion is back, so you three gotta leave, now!" she informed them, getting calmly into the building.

The vampires were quietalso, too much so maybe they were ignorant to what a Slayer was and they thought they were dealing with an easy snack. In fact, one of them approached her, laughing.

"I don't have the slightest idea of what you're talking about, little girl, but we're not going anywhere…"

".. and neither do you!" his fellows ended up that sentence, reaching him.

"Ok, I understand perfectly.. " she exclaimed, raising her hands as she was surrendering, but she put them inside the pocket of her sweatshirt.

".. now, explain that to my stakes!" she said, dusting them in a heartbeat, without giving them any chances.

After the unpleasant episode with Spike earlier, she had had the wise idea of bringing some stakes with her, before going to the warehouse.
