The biggest news to hit Sunnydale High in months was the invitations to a party at Spike's mansion on Friday night. Apparently a surprise guest was about to arrive from Europe.


As Buffy put on her blue gown she was excited. Not only had Spike been nice to her and personally handed her the invitation, but Angel had smiled and asked her to make it.


Cordelia Chase knew she rocked her gold dress that she had walked the runway in at Paris fashion week. It was nice of her little brother Spike to throw a welcome home party for her. She had always loved the V4 when they were little and she babysat them.


Angel had a plan when he asked Buffy to dance. He knew that Spike liked Buffy. He knew that he loved Cordy. Spike would see him dancing with Buffy and make a scene, leaving Cordy without a dance partner and not speaking to her brother. Angel would then spend the rest of the night with his one true love Cordy.

Spike had not expected to get so jealous of Angel dancing with Buffy. He was determined to control himself, and then Buffy leaned back and laughed at something Angel had said. She had barely smiled at him and Angel got a full-throated laugh. This would not be tolerated in his own house. He marched right over and punched Angel in the face, but as Angel was gearing up to punch back Buffy slipped between them. As Angel released his momentum Buffy fell onto Spike, both landing on the floor lips touching.


Buffy was hiding in the bathroom. It was the only sensible thing to do when you kissed your arch-nemesis in front of the really cute artist you were starting to click with. As she cried, a beautiful brunette in a skin tight gold dress stormed in.

"Are you okay?" She asked aggressively

"I think so," Buffy sniffled.

"Those two have always been the biggest idiots," Cordy sighed releasing some of her anger. "I don't think we've meet. I'm Spike's sister Cordy."

"Buffy," Buffy smiled shaking the offered hand that turned into a hug.

"Listen Buffy, I know I have to return to Paris in a few days, but if those two idiots keep giving you problems you can always call me. I know how to take care of them."
