It was decided that that Saturday, they would be hanging at Buffy's place. Everyone was assigned one assignment. Xander was to bring the snacks. Willow was going to bring the movies and Buffy was supposed to make sure they had a place to crash. But Saturday was a couple of days away. It was only Tuesday and Buffy was planning to get together with Riley at his place on Wednesday.

The day flew by as usual without any more interruptions. Buffy paid attention is all of her classes and took accurate notes. After school, she strolled to her locker and put her books away. She closed her locker and turned to leave when the little whore Harmony stepped in front of her. She walked to her left, trying not to talk to Harmony. Harmony just stepped in front of her once again. Buffy sighed. "Is there something I can help you with Harmony?"

Harmony blew a lopsided little bubble with her bubble gum and popped it. "Yes you can."

Buffy waited for her to elaborate. When she didn't, Buffy told her, "This is the part where you tell me what you want."

"I want your little bitch ass to stay away from my Spike."

Buffy raised her eyebrows. "Yeah. That won't be a problem."

"Uh, nuh-uh. I saw you too at lunch. He was supposed to be with me. But he wasn't. He was with you."

"Yeah. Maybe you should keep your boy toy under control." Buffy did not have time for this. She tried to side step harmony again but again, Harmony stepped in front of her. "We need to stop playing this little game. I'm not having fun."

"This isn't a game, sweetie. This is a threat. You stay away from my man." She said, adding emphasis by poking Buffy very hard with each of her last words.

"Look, Harmony. I have a boyfriend. His name is Riley. We've been together for two years. I'm not going to waste what we have on your boyfriend…or whatever he is to you." Buffy told her with a very firm, calm voice and finally left, leaving Harmony a little stunned with her mouth hanging on the floor.

Wednesday rolled around quickly and Buffy was in her room, excited about seeing her boyfriend. With what had happened the other day with Spike, she just wanted to be absolutely sure that Riley was all she ever wanted and will always want. She was so sure before. But then along came Spike-the strange weight that was rocking her boat and making it slosh from side to side and tilting it and letting water in, drowning her slowly but surely with doubt and indecision. She didn't like it. Not one bit.

She lightly applied make up and put on some shoes and headed out the door. She wasn't such a great driver-meaning that at her best, she would probably run over three animals, seven mail boxes and at least two little old ladies with canes-so she walked.

When she arrived, she walked past the biggest house on the block and noticed that somebody was pulling up in a very old, beat up car. The owner exited the vehicle and she kept her head down when she noticed that it was Spike. She quickened her pace and was almost at Riley's house when she felt someone catch her arm. She sighed and realizing whom it must be.

"Hello, sweetness."

"Hey, you disgusting freak." Buffy replied without turning around. Spike pulled her so that she was facing him and smirked.

"Not exactly the hello I imagined but at least it was a hello."

"You're so annoying."

"You're so cute."

"Leave me alone."

"No."

…

"Please?"

"No."

"Let me go you annoying little jackass!" Buffy yelled before kicking his jewels (if you know what I mean).

Spike doubled over and held his groin. He strained, "You're being incredibly sassy today."

"Uh-huh. Bye. I'm going to my boyfriend's house."

Spike raised an eyebrow and waved her away. She huffed and continued on her way. Spike never actually knew where Riley lived. He knew that they lived close but he didn't know Riley's exact address. He watched as Buffy-what a cute name- headed for the house five houses away from his. It was small. One story but he was pretty sure it had three rooms. He also knew that that house had a pool because he had seen it from his balcony many, many times. He wondered if Buffy ever went swimming in it. That would be hot… He shook his head to clear his pervish thoughts and went inside, to his room to scheme…
