Tasty Little Treat
Lights blazed as Spike pulled up to the hotel later that evening. Red was dead on with her tracking and locations spells - but what amazed him was that she didn't even resort to magic. She had used her hacker skills to find Dawn - it was downright eerie. He was also bloody glad the witch didn't work for the government. Scary stuff that.
When red had called earlier to 'see how Dawn was getting on' she had merely been triangulating her whereabouts.
He parked the car on the other end of the lot, close to the entrance and walked to the room she was staying in. He could see in the window and it looked as if the bit was squaring off against a pretty large guy while another stood looking on (was he trying not to laugh? he was!).
Not one for patience - Spike pulled out his phone and dialed her number. She picked up without ever taking her eyes off her opponent.
"Yeah."
"'Ello, Pet. Got a mo'?"
"Sure Love, give me a second. I need a minute away from Butthead anyway" She brushed passed her opponent without a backwards glance and he gaped. I put my phone away.
Oi! It would be mad fun to watch them go at it. Although, he seemed to look a little green at the 'Love' comment. Perhaps I'll have to warn him off the Bit, or well at least warn him off of hurting her, you know my job as the Big Bad.
The door opened and Dawnie walked out of the room with the phone to her ear. "Hey Spi-"
I cut her off and put my hand over her mouth. "My, My, My what a tasty treat..." and pulled her into the shadows.
I heard her laugh behind my hand and I loosened my grip. She spun in my arms and hugged me. "You came out here for me?"
"Course. You had me worried there for a while"
"Awww.. Your so sweet."
"Ain't nothing of the sort. Merely protecting what's mine is all." Long ago he had taken her in as family, as a member of his kiss or nest.
"I missed you." She hugged me again and I hugged back. It was good to see her safe.
"Get your hands off the girl!" Then I head the cocking of a gun...
