There were several loud
bangs at Xander and Anaya's apartment door, Xander flipped on the
light switch and stumbled blindly into the lounge followed by Anaya
with a baseball bat held in the air
Xander jumped back in shock at
the site of the bat "Arn your not going to need that" he said
rubbing his eyes
"How do you know there could be burglars out there" she said her eyes fixated on the door,
"If there were burglar they wouldn't knock the door," he told her taking the bat out her hands, he opened the door just as Willow, and Tara rushed through
"What's going on?" Xander asked sleepily as he sat down on the chair
"We have a problem…" Willow told them
"I still don't see why he can't stay at ours," Dawn said as she walked through there door. Angel tried to follow but an invisible barrier stopped him from entering there apartment, he looked like a mime trapped inside a glass box. Xander jumped to his feet
"What's he doing here?" his eyes narrowed
"Xander don't be rude," Anya snapped, "Please come into my home" Anya invited Angel in, he stumbled forward as the barrier vanished
"Thanks" he smiled as he walked over to Anya to shake her hand, Xander stepped in front of her
"Why are you here?"
"Xander!" Anya interrupted
"Arn not now, what are you doing here?" he repeated looking deep in to his cold dead eyes.
"I'm not here to cause any trouble Xander" he insured him
"Then leave" Xander told him "you made it pretty clear that you weren't coming back. Why the sudden change of heart, is it because of Buffy? And her new guy"
"What?" Angle stepped back in disbelief "Who?" he asked
"You don't know do you" Xander smirked "you come all this way to see her and she's off screwing some other guy or should I say Vampire. And you had no idea" Xander laughed
"That's enough Xander!" Dawn said standing up for Angel
"No Dawn he needs to know, you see while you were off playing detective in L.A Buffy got busy back home she's moved on from little broody Angel who couldn't give her what wanted…" But before Xander could finish Angel grabbed him by the throat and raised him against the wall, his face became wrinkled and contorted, his eyes burning yellow.
"And what about you Xander, you hang around with all these girls and yet there still the one's that save your ass" Angel growled, his white fangs shimmer in the light
"That's enough!" Willow ordered, she flicked her fingers and both Xander and Angle separated, Xander hit the floor and Angel stumbled over his coat tails.
"Angel yes its true, Buffy has moved on and Xander shame on you… you should know better"
"Who?" Angel asked, his face now back to normal and looking very hurt
Willow almost did not want to say "It's Spike" Angel sat there in disbelief "Anya could you house him for the night, I mean day"
"Oh no he's not staying here," Xander said, "I put my foot down"
"Please Xander" Willow pleaded
"I'm sorry Will you know I will always be there for you it's just that I don't like him"
"You don't like Spike either" Dawn added
"I don't like Vampires" he corrected him self
"I don't know why we even came come on Angel I'll take you to my house," Dawn said helping Angel up and she stormed out dragging Angel
"Dawn wait!" Willow rushed after her but it was to late there were heading home.
