Dawn woke up with a start, she glanced at her clock just barely remembering she had a training session with Spike. It said 7:30

"Crap" she muttered and jumped out of bed. She rummaged around in her draws looking for something suitable she settled on a sparkly royal blue tank top and royal blue sweatpants.

Quickly taking a 10 minute shower she dressed and dried her hair pulling

it up into a tight pony tail. Quickly glancing at her clock which told her it was 7:55 she ran out of her room bouncing down the stairs and ran down the stairs to the basement where she found Spike waiting impatiently tapping his foot arms crossed.

"What?" she asked him when she saw his posture. "I'm not late!"

Spike smiled. "No you're not but usually you're early" Dawn for the third time this morning glanced at the clock.

"Well according to that I am still early" Dawn said pointing towards the clock.

"Yeah by two minutes" Spike responded.

"Can we not do this now?" Dawn asked.

"Do what?" Spike asked innocently. Dawn sighed and said

"Ok Mr. I-Know-Everything teach me." Dawn spread her arms out in front of her challenging him.

"What'd wanna do first bit?" Spike asked walking to step in front of her.

"I'm not sure…" She said uncertainly "You're the watcher you tell me." Spike walked across the room his arms crossed as if he was pondering something. All of a sudden he vamped out and charged Dawn tackling her from behind. Dawn fell down,

"First rule Luv never turn your back to someone who might attack you." Dawn grinned evilly in response.

"We'll play it your way then" Dawn said smirking shoving Spike off of her and jumping up not missing a beat she flipped into the air over to the stereo and switched it on. The radio blared the action CD she had put in before she went to bed yesterday. Dawn grinned wickedly at Spike.

"Give me your best shot" she said in a fake sweetness. Much to Dawn's surprise Spike only looked at her and stood in the middle of the floor while she stood off to the side in fighting stance. Dawn Straightened up "what's wrong" Spike simply shook his head as if sad.

"Spike- Spike what's wrong!" Dawn said fiercely. Spike had his back to her and again he took advantage of her unexpectedness and charged her but this time he got a punch in the face in return. Dawn did a round house kick on him sending him back wards into a wall

Bloody Hell! The Nibblet can kick! Spike thought as he stood back up "Thank you 'Nibblet I needed that kick in the face"

Dawn shrugged "You asked for it" she stated simply. All of a sudden Spike remembered Buffy telling him about her eighteenth birthday.

"Nibblet how old are you?" He asked worriedly

"Eighteen, why?" Dawn asked hesitantly as Spike began to pace back in thought as if deep in thought Dawn stood in fighting position thinking he was going to try and surprise her again.

"I'm not gonna attack you Bit I really am thinking this time." He said suddenly he bellowed "BUFFY!COME DOWN HERE!"

Before Spike finished bellowing Buffy was there

"What Spike?"

"Your eighteenth Birthday" Was all he said looking directly into Buffy's eyes, who glanced at Dawn.

"They won't" She stammered "I mean they wouldn't!" Buffy sighed "I'll Call Giles"

"What? Did I miss something?" When Spike didn't answer Dawn, she walked up to him and spun him around and pushed him into a wall pinning him there.

"Why is Buffy calling Giles?" She asked sweetly. Spike pushed her off.

"There's nothing for you to worry about bit" Dawn looked at him but Spike couldn't read her emotions.

"Let's stop training for now, I bet you didn't get any breakfast before coming down here did you?"

Dawn blushed "nuh uh"

"Let's go out to breakfast me and you"

"But the Sun-"

"We'll go through the sewers I know this cute place over by the school you'll love it." Dawn nodded and went upstairs to tell buffy where they were going. Buffy agreed telling her to tell Spike to make sure the got back in an hour though, Giles was coming over to talk to him.

Dawn went slowly down the stairs to Spike looking deep in thought she stopped when she reached the bottom of the stairs standing there for a few minutes not realizing Spike was watching her.

Emily watched them with interest. This is gonna be fun she thought just before she took over Dawn's body again.

"Hi Spike" Dawn said walking over to him.

"What did Buffy say?" He asked

"huh?" She asked.

"Buffy can we go get breakfast?" He asked her looking at her curiously.

"after this we can" She said stepping very close to him and lowering his head to hers kissing him passionately.

Spike pulled away violently.

"What do you think you're doing!" he asked

Emily decided she was done possessing Dawn and it was Spike's turn now. Dawn staggered forward as the Emily's spirit pulled out of her. Distantly she could hear Spike calling her.

"—Dawn? Dawn are you all right? Dawn."

"Spike" she gasped finally just sitting down on the mat "Good that music's loud she muttered not even realizing she said it Spike clicked it off. "Spike the spirit she's here" Dawn said grasping his elbow "I'm sorry I didn't mean to-"

"I know Nibblet shush its ok"

Emily was giggling like a mad woman by now this was too good she thought suckers! Just as she took over Spike's body.

"It's ok 'cuz I'm here" Spike told Dawn sitting down beside her pulling her onto his lap but she resisted.

"Because you're here?" she asked slowly and Spike nodded. Dawn yanked Spike up on to his feet and punched him.

This was not what Emily expected 'damn!' she thought 'I can't just let the poor guy get beaten because of me' Dawn now had her pinned against the wall and she looked Sad hurt and confused.

"Why would you do that? Stupid Spirit! Why can't you let me tell him I love him in my own good time?" She yelled getting pissed off. By now Emily had left Spike's undead body.

"You love me?" He whispered.

Dawn stopped pinning him and walked across the room the punching bag and started punching

"What does it matter? The stupid spirit obviously didn't think I could tell you and I didn't mean too!" Dawn said crying silently as she whacked the punching bag so hard Spike thought it would fall off the chain. He walked over and grabbed her hands and holding them together.

"you're the slayer." He said quietly.

"Not the slayer" she said whispering " A slayer Buffy's the slayer and you're her boyfriend"

Spike shook his head. " you're the slayer" Dawn glanced at him and saw he truly believed that.

Dawn only nodded "thanks" She muttered.
