After Angel had a real chat with Connor Spike decided to go home since Angel seemed to have his hands full with his step brother. Feeling bad Angel told him to wait five minutes until he was done talking to Connor and that he would take him home so he wouldn't have to walk. So currently he was sitting out side on the front porch watching some of the gardener's plant flowers.
His phone rang and he looked at his caller ID before he answered in case it was someone he didn't want to talk to. He was surprised to see Buffy's name pop up, he just gave her his number and she was already calling him. He smiled and answered on the third ring.
"Hello pet."
"Spike, I need your help." She sounded frantic and Spike wondered what it was about. "I need you to come over to my house and pick us up. My brother got some bad news and took the car and we need to get there before he does something he regrets. We called the cab place but they said they couldn't get anyone over here until maybe five at best, by then it'll be too late." Buffy cried. Spike could here shooting in the back ground and cries for some one named Morgan.
"Spike will you come?" Buffy asked. He was there only hope.
"Yeah, where do you stay?" Buffy sighed in gratitude and gave him directions to her house. He told her he would be there in ten minutes and hung up the phone.
He took about a second to take all of that in then took off running in Angel's house.
"Angel!!!" Spike yelled. No answer. "Angel," He yelled again. This time foot seeps came rushing down the stairs.
"What's wrong?" Angel said as he rushed down the rest of the stairs, Connor close behind.
"No time to explain. I need you to get one of your more space's cars and take me to Buffy's house."
By the tone in Spike's voice Angel knew that he was serious. He nodded and the two headed out the door. Connor was on his way back up the stairs once he saw that it wasn't a matter of life or death, until Angel pulled him by the color.
"What the hell are you doing?"
Angel let the curse go unheard as he continued to drag Connor out the door. "You're coming with us, we may be gone for a while and I'm not leaving you alone." Connor struggled but it was no use.
Once they walked out the door Angle picked out Darla's red minivan and got in the drivers seat and sped out of the driveway and out the gates. Spike sat in the passenger seat given direction the whole way.
Connor was in the back sulking as his step brother broke all the rules of the road. He had one thing on his mind, 'Our parent's will find out about this,' he thought bitterly.
Buffy, Dawn and Dean were sitting in the living room, all three lost in there own thoughts. Buffy was curled up on the sofa with Dawn's head in her lap. Dean was sitting a cushion away with all of there duffle bags at his feet. To say the least he was pissed.
While he and Buffy were in the hallway talking about how they would tell Jer he was standing on the steps listing to there conversation. He grabbed the keys to their only car and took off.
A car horn honked out side and all thee teens looked at each other. They shot up and Buffy and Dawn headed out the door while Dean grabbed the duffle bags and followed behind them.
"Thank you so much." Buffy said as she embraced Spike in a hug. He was stunned but then gladly returned it. "No problem pet." She smiled slightly and got into the open sliding door, Dawn at her heals.
"We need to go now and I gotta drive." Dean said as he stood outside the driver's side door. Angel gave him an odd looked and Dean looked at him impatiently. He sighed and got out of the car and Dean took his place.
"You ride in the back." Angel said as he pushed past Spike and took the bleach blonds seat. Spike surged and took a seat next to Connor while Buffy and Dawn were comfortable in the back.
"Where are we going?" Connor asked like a three six old during a car trip.
Dean put the car in drive and looked back at Connor. "L.A," he replied simply and took off faster than Angel ever could.
It had been an hour so far and Dawn, Connor, and Buffy were already asleep. Spike looked back at the sleeping blond and smiled. "So why are you guys going to L.A?" Angel asked Dean breaking Spike out of his thoughts. "I never did get an explanation as to why you needed my van."
Dean sighed. The least he could do was tell them what happened since they gave them a car to use. "You better listen cause I ain't telling it again Buffy got a phone call from Sam….." Dean started. Five minutes later he was finished and Angel and Spike sat in shock.
"So you think that Jer is going after her dad?" Angel asked engulfed in the story line. Dean nodded and kept his eyes on the road.
"Is you're life always like a bloody soap?" Spike asked Dean cocked his head to the side and nodded. "Yeah, pretty much" The three boys laughed together like they had know each other for years.
"Glad to see you guys are getting along." Spike and Angel turned around and looked at the now awake Buffy.
Dean looked at her from the mirror and she sent him a smile. "Yes is the answer to your question." He smiled and the other two boys looked at him with a questioning look.
'He was gonna ask me if he looked like Paris Hilton,' Buffy thought to her self. She smiled and thought of the first time he asked her that.
Flashback
A six year old Buffy sat on her bed bored out of her mind. Everyone was down stars and Buffy had been sent to her room because she refused to share with her sister. Someone knocked on her door and Buffy thought it was her mommy coming to say that she could come down now. To her surprise it was her big brother Dean.
"What are you doing here?" Buffy asked as she got off the bed and put her hands on her hips.
Dean laughed and walked over to his sister's side.
"I snuck up too see you," seven year old Dean said. Buffy soon smiled and embraced her big bro in a hug. "Mommy said no one can talk when their in time out."
Dean nodded in understanding and sat on Buffy's bed, she followed suit and sat by his side.
"I know you didn't want to share but sometimes you gotta."
"But why?" Buffy asked not understanding.
"You used to take my stuff all the time and mommy would put me in time out too."
Buffy scratched her pigtailed head trying to remember when she did that. "I don't remember Dean," she said cutely. He smiled and patted her on the head. "It's ok you were small." She nodded and Dean continued.
"Well you just have to share with Dawn cases you're older and that's what mommy said."
"Ok," she said. A smile appeared on her six year old face and she looked up at her brother.
"Will you play dress up with me?" Dean shook his head and Buffy pouted. Not wanting to make his sister cry he agreed and her face lit up.
Several minutes later Joyce walked up the stairs and opened her daughter's door. She smiled at the sight but soon frowned.
"Buffy! Dean!" They stopped laughing and turned to look at their angry mother. "You can't be in here when Buffy's in time out," she said looking at Dean who had on a pink dress and some pink flip flops. He also had on a pearl necklace and a sun hat was on his head.
Joyce smiled again and took Dean by the hand. "The both of you get five minutes in time out. Say goodbye to your sister." Buffy pouted and looked down at the floor.
He didn't want Buffy to be sad, that's the whole reason he played dress up with her. "Dean, aren't you going to say something." He smiled and looked up at his mother and nodded.
"Buffy?" She lifted her head towards her brother. He posed and said, "do I look like Paris Hilton?" Buffy laughed and nodded. Joyce smiled and took Dean out of the room and left Buffy to her laughter.
End Flashback
"Buffy?" Spike asked for like the fifth time. "Huh?" she asked looking up into Spike's blue eyes. "I said were here. What were you thinking about?" Buffy shook her head. "Nothing, lets get going before my brother ruins his life. Will you wake up Dawn?" Spike nodded and Buffy jumped out of the car and ran to catch up with Dean and Angel.
The three teens ran up the walk way and reached to front door in seconds. "It's locked," Buffy said as she tried to open the door. "Move" Angel said simply. Buffy looked at him oddly but moved out of his way.
Angel backed up and ran into the door full speed. The door flew open and the two teens looked at him in awe. "I was gonna kick it down but that works too." Dean said as he sent Buffy a reassuring smile she returned it and they walked into the house.
"Jer!!!" Buffy screamed as she saw her brother with Morgan's dad by his shirt collar in mid punch. He looked up and saw his litter sister and Dean.
"Buffy? Dean? Buffy get out of her, I don't want you to see this."
"I don't want you to do this." Buffy said as she sent Jer pleading looks.
"He deserves this! He hurt Morgan!" Jer yelled.
Her eyes filled with tears but she held them back "If you kill him I'll be hurt, not because of him because of you. You'll go to jail and I'll lose a brother. I lost my sister, then mom, and we never really had a dad so don't make me lose you too. You have a choice!!!"
"She's right," Dean said with the same pleading eyes as his sister. Jer looked at the man in his hands then to his brother and sister. He threw him to the floor and he made to attempt to get up.
Jer sank to the floor and Buffy and Dean ran over to him. Angel went to cheek on the badly beaten man and to see if he had a pulse. "Is he still alive?" Spike asked from behind him. Angel nodded and Spike and Connor sighed. Dawn was over with her brothers and sister embracing them in a hug.
"Let's get to the hospital" Buffy said as she looked over her brothers wounds. He had a cut on his left arm and a bruise on his right eye that was gonna be a black one soon, other than that he looked ok. Dawn sighed in relief and hugged her brother once again.
"Don't ever do anything like this again" Dawn said sternly. Jer smiled and nodded. "Ok, I promise." Dawn smiled and took his word for it.
"Who are these people?" Connor asked speaking for the first time since he had woken up. Dawn laughed and Connor looked in her direction. She blushed and turned to her brother.
Angel took a long sigh and headed out to the van. "Today will be hard to top," he mumbled.
"With us around you won't have to try." Dean said as he followed.
"Ok, I called the police and they said they would be her soon. I'll take a statement and we can go." Jer nodded and pulled Buffy into a hug. "Thanks for saving my life." Buffy smiled at Jer and he ruffled her hair. "No problem."
Ten minutes later the cops were there and took Buffy and Jer's statement. They told them that Mr. Laurence had beaten his daughter and that he was trying to skip town when they got there. Jer tried to stop him but he put up a fight but he knocked him unconscious. They bought it and they were free to go.
"I hate cops," Buffy said once she was safely in the van. Spike looked at her and asked, "Why?"
"Because if they did their job none of this would have happened. If they would have came looking for him after Sam told them what he did none of this would have happened." Jer pulled Buffy closer to him and she relaxed in his arms.
"Is Morgan ok?"
"Yes, she lost a lot of blood but they were able to stop the bleeding and stabilize her."
'As long as she's ok' he thought. Buffy looked up at him and could tell he was thing about her just by the look on his face. At that moment surrounded by everyone and being held by her brother she felt lonely.
"You ok luv?" Spike asked. She looked at him and smiled. "Yeah, I am now." He smiled glad that she was ok and turned his attention back to the front.
At The Hospital
"Buffy!" Sam said as he saw the blond walk into the room. She threw herself into his arms and hugged him for dear life.
"Is Morgan ok?" Sam nodded and looked over at his sleeping sister; Jer was already at her side and was stroking her cheek and whispering sweet words in her ear.
"Sam!" He looked over and saw Dawn and Dean standing at the threshold of the door. The youngest Summers ran over to him and pulled him into a hug.
"Where are the others?" Buffy asked Dean.
"There n the waiting room. This bitch of a nurse wouldn't let anyone else come up so Angle said they would just stay down stairs."
Buffy rolled her eyes and turned to Morgan. She looked so small and frail lying in that big bed. Her hair was stamped to her head from her own blood; she had two gashed on both arms, and a black eye. Buffy felt tears form in her eyes.
She had know Morgan all her life and she was not a weak person, she was loud, outspoken, and had the mouth of a sailor. Looking at her now you wouldn't know any of that. Buffy felt a hand on her shoulder; she looked behind her and saw Dean's sad face. She launched herself into his arms and cried in his chest for the second time that day.
"It's ok." Dean said trying to sooth his sister's cries. "Morgan is strong and if anyone can bounce back from this it's her, so don't worry." Buffy sniffed and looked up at her brother. Dean had always been there for her when ever she needed him and she loved him for that. Jer was there for her too and right know she needed to be strong so she could be there for him.
"Morgan's a little banged up but she's fine. She asleep right now and when she wakes up you can her it from her own lips how true that is." Sam said. Dawn was still holding onto him afraid if she let go he would disappear.
Buffy looked around the room and saw that Holly was asleep in a chair next to Morgan's beside. Sam caught her gaze and smiled. "After she went to her house to get some clothes she sat by her side and didn't leave it for a second. I took a nap and when I came to they were both asleep." He looked at his girlfriends sleeping face and thought about all the hard times they had together and added this one to the bottom of the list.
The room was swept away in silence as everyone got lost in their own thoughts. About a minute later a knock came from the door snapping the teens back to reality.
"I'm sorry to bother you but Dr. Russell needs to do some follow up test so I'm going to have to ask you to go back to the waiting room."
Sam shook his head at the nurse and all eyes turned to him. "I refuse to live my sister's side." The red headed woman sighed "Dr. Russell will have to give her approval but I don't see why you can't stay with her. If you can't then you may be permitted to say out side while the procedure is being done."
"Ok that's fine." Sam said He sent Dean a look and he nodded. "Come on guys we have to go." Buffy nodded and Dawn let go of Sam's arm, he sent her a small smile and she walked over to her brother.
"Jer we have to go" Dawn said in a soft but sill loud enough for Jer to hear her. He looked at his girlfriend and then back at his sister. He didn't want to live her side but he had to so the doctors could make sure she was ok. He sighed and placed a kiss on her forehead and tore himself away from her sleeping form.
"Could you take Holly with you? She needs her rest and I could bear to wake her" Sam said. Jer picked her up with ease and the teens headed out the door.
"Calm down." Spike said softly to the man on the phone.
"You want me to calm down? You didn't just find out your son left town with a group of friends to do God knows what!!!"
Spike sighed and tried to think of a way to get though to his father. He was so busy yelling he wouldn't listen a word he tried to say. It had been like that between them ever since his mom died, she was always the one who calmed him down and reasoned with him. Now that she was gone the two hardly said two words to each other, Spike preferred to just let him rant and go on with his life. But right now he was on the verge of saying something he might regret later.
"Dad listen to me." He let out a sigh of relief as his dad stopped talking. Spike then explained the whole thing about Buffy needing his help to being at the hospital. When he was done his father was left speechless.
"I'll be home soon, we just have to wait until the girl is released and then we'll be on our way home" Spike hug up without letting his father say a word, he turned off his phone so he wouldn't call back.
"What happened?" Angel asked from his place behind his friend. Spike turned around and faced him but just shook his head in response to Angel's question. "My dad just called is all. He yelled as usual but then I hug up, bloody wanker."
Angle chuckled. "I don't think Giles is gonna go easy on you after that."
Spike looked around and saw that Jer and the others were back but he saw no sing of Buffy.
"Where is Buffy?"
"She went out side to get something she should be-" He never finished his sentence because Spike headed out the door.
"He really likes that girl." Angel muttered.
"Why wouldn't he, she's amazing." An unknown voice said. Angel turned around and saw a brow haired girl that had been asleep earlier.
"Who are you?"
She scoffed. "Buffy doesn't talk about me much I see. I should go have a talk with her." Angel watched her as she walked out the door. He turned around and saw Dean standing right in front of him.
"That was Holly, friend of the family and Sam's girlfriend. Don't be offended if she doesn't say much and if what she says is rude, that's just they way she is. Anyway we are about to go, Morgan's fine and we just need the doctor to say she can leave and we'll be on our way."
"Cool, are you going to go tell Buffy?"
"Holly will tell her." They went over to the others with out another word.
"What the hell did Dean do with my duffle bag?" Buffy mumbled to herself. She was franticly looking for the duffle bag Dean put in the van, so far she hadn't found anything. She was so caught up in her search she didn't notice the person who was standing right behind her.
"Where the fuck is that bag!!!" she yelled.
"You really should clean up your mouth luv, you have a little sister. You wouldn't want that to rub off on her, would you?"
"Ahh," Buffy yelled as she fell out the side of the van at the sound of the bleached blond's voice. Luckily Spike caught her before she hit the ground. "What he heck are you doing here?" Spike let her up and she stared at him questionly.
"Angel told me you came out here and I didn't want you to be alone." Buffy smiled and a small blush appeared on her face. 'Why am I always like this around him?' she asked herself. She couldn't like him!!! 'I can't like him, I promised Dean and Jer that I wouldn't get to close to him. If I do that I'll be going back on my word.'
She looked back up at Spike and saw that he was looking at her pretty hard. "What's wrong is there something on my face?"
"No, I was just wondering what you were thinking about." Buffy dismissed it and stepped closer to him. 'What am I doing?' she asked as she got closer. Finally she was right in front of him, she embraced him in a hug and he was taken aback.
"I never got to say thank you for helping us." She was speaking so low Spike could barely hear her. "You were there for me, for us, and you don't even know who we are. I just wanted to say thanks because with out you and Angel we would have never gotten here inn time."
Spike had a look of contentment on his face. He was surprised when she hugged him but he was slowly becoming accustomed to the feel of her in his arms. He hated to think "Don't mention it pet." Buffy smiled and berried head deeper in his chest.
"Buffy?" a voice called from behind the two. Spike let her go and she turned around and saw the girl that was asleep in Jer's arms.
"Holly?" Buffy asked in disbelief. The other girl nodded and Buffy ran over to her and gave her a bone crushing hug. "Are you ok? When did you wake up?" Buffy let her go and took a good look at her.
She had on a pair of tight red jeans with an oversized black hoodie on that Buffy assumed was Sam's. To top off her outfit she wore a pair of Gucci Nike Air Force Ones, probably a gift from her father.
Holly came from a very wealthy family and her father did not approve of her being with Sam. Since Buffy's father was loaded too he had no complaints about her hanging out with the four teens. Sam never carried that Holly's parents didn't approver of him but he didn't want to get her into any trouble so they split for a while.
During that time Holly took it really hard but her parents were as happy as can be. They gave no concern about her heart ace and Buffy wasn't about to sit back and watch her friends suffer. She told Sam how much Holly missed him and how she acted now that they weren't together and the two decided to get back together but not tell her parents.
"The doctor came down and said that Morgan is gonna be just fine and that we could take her home soon. Sam just has to sign a few papers and we're out of this fucking place."
Buffy sighed in happiness and hugged Holly once again. "I'm so glad that she's ok."
The other girl nodded and Spike watched the two with a curious expression. Holly let go and looked at Buffy "Just the way I remember you." Buffy smiled and rolled her eyes.
"We've only been gone for a while, why wouldn't I be?"
"That's beside the point. We need to catch up on things and when Sam, Morgan, and I come to live with you we'll have plenty of time to do so."
Buffy looked at Holly and then at Spike who was standing by her side. She did that about three times and then ran her hand through her hair. "I don't think I heard you right, did you just say that you, Sam, and Morgan were going to move in with us?" Buffy asked no believing her ears. Spike smirked and watched the girl named Holly nod.
"That's wonderful?" Buffy said in more of a questioning manner. Holly laughed and Spike tried his best to keep his in. The brown headed girl looked over to him and the smile left his face quickly.
"Yes that is wonderful but care to tell me who this guy is and why you were locked in a l race with him?" Buffy and Spike looked at each other then quickly looked away.
"I was not in a loving embrace!!!" Buffy yelled. Holly laughed and walked over to Spike and looked him up and down.
"You have good taste."
"You better not say that, you know how jealous Sam is." The brunet smiled. Sam was always the jealous type and she wouldn't have him any other way. "Don't tell, ok?" Buffy chuckled and nodded.
"How com every time we try to have a conversation someone interrupts?" Spike asked
"Maybe because you two aren't meant to be alone together." Holly said. Buffy rolled her eyes and hit her lightly on the shoulder.
Buffy scoffed ad rolled her eyes and the two teens turned to look at her. "Holly, you haven't caged a bit. Why the attitude again?"
"You say you've only been gone a while but you have changed." Holly put a hand on her hip and with the free had she put a finger to her chin. "I wonder if I ask- what's your name?"
"Spike"
"If I ask Spike over there how you two meet it probably wouldn't involve any yelling or insults would it?" Buffy looked away and Holly smirked. "I thought so, you're going soft on us."
"Shut up I came out here to find my duffle bag and that's it. I didn't need you to came check on me," Buffy said as she pointed to Spike, "or you to lecture me. Leave me the hell alone!"
Spike just looked shocked and the smirk on Holly's face just grew wider.
"Buffy the-"
"Shut up I don't wan t to hear it! All I want is to find my duffle bag and get the hell out of this hell hole."
Spike rolled his eyes and stalked over to her, she took a step back with each step forward he took but he grabbed her shoulders and stilled her. He whispered something in her ear and she blushed, he opened the trunk and grabbed a black duffle bag and handed it to her. She smiled sheepishly and whispered a thanks.
"Ok…" Holly said. Buffy blushed once more and told herself that she was gonna have a talk with Holly or Dawn about all the blushing she had been doing lately. They made there way into the hospital.
"Holly!" Dawn yelled as she got sight of the other girl. She left Connor's side and went to give her long time friend a hug. "Hey, what's up?"
"We just got good news. The doctors say that everything looks fine and Morgan will be able to leave as soon as Sam sings all the papers." Holly looked to Buffy who also had a smile on her face and knew that the blond was planning something.
"That's great." Buffy said fakely. "It would be even better if one of you had told me instead of Holly. She wondered out into the street to find me and none of you bothered to look foe me" Buffy shook her head in shame. "Sometimes I wonder if we are even related."
"I can tell she's better" Jer said as he walked over to his sister's side. "If you can joke your up for anything."
"Damn straight" Buffy said with a nod. Holly and Dawn rolled their eyes and Buffy stuck her tongue out at both of them.
