Well, you guys are probably aren't happy with me and I'm not very happy with me either. Some crap just hit me and I have to figure out what to do...so updates may be slower or the updates may be shorter. So sorry!

But, on a more positive note, I plan to do a nice little story for Valentine's Day. But I need some input-- do you guys want Spike to be sweet, or normal? By which I mean, is Spike going to be doing something...Valentine's-y or just something like they would do on any other day. You can vote once per chapter beforehand. Some input would really be helpful!

Enjoy!


"Well, what do you think of this?" Alexis asked, hitting the next button on her IPod, which was currently on shuffle. Immediately, instrumental music flooded their ears and Spike had to smile.

"You sure do have a wide variety of music on here, don't you?" he asked, holding his girlfriend close to him as they sat listening to music on the park bench.

"Over 1, 500 songs; but it can hold a lot more. I think it can hold around 20,000 songs." She told him, resting her head on his shoulder.

"Think you'll ever fill it up?" he asked, smiling down at her.

Alexis snorted. "I doubt it. I've this IPod since I finished Grade 12."

Spike shrugged, careful not to move his Alexis. "Stranger things have probably happened."

"Like what?"

"Like going out with me. Now come on, we've got a movie to catch." He stood and pulled Alexis to her feet as she put her IPod in her purse.

"Alrig-ah!"

"Alexis!" he cried, dropping to his knees to sort out the pile that contained Alexis and some biker. "You alright?" Spike asked, pulling her into the safety of his arms.

"Just a few bumps and bruises." She smiled weakly up at him. "Thanks."

The biker turned to them then, eyes wide and voice high-pitched. "Oh my god! Are you alright? I looked over to see something for one second and then I-"

Spike stopped the biker with a hand on their shoulder. "It's alright, really. No harm done, right 'Lexis?"

Alexis smiled as she nodded at the biker. "It's alright, really. I'm just glad you weren't going any faster."

The biker smiled, relieved, at them before standing up. "Alright...sorry!" the biker called as they sped away.

Spike let out a breath as he checked Alexis over; making sure that she was fairly unharmed. "You sure you're alright? You want to go home or something?" he asked as he helped her to her feet.

Alexis shook her head, smiling at him. "I'm fine, really. Besides, the movie sounds good."

"Alright, just keep a watch for those bikers; they seem to be getting more dangerous by the day." He joked, relieved at the fact she laughed easily.

"Right then, we shall walk to the theatre and keep an eye out for bikers not keeping an eye out." She told him as she linked arms with him.

"Exactly!"
