At this moment Buffy Summers was trying very hard not to do 2 things. First, she was trying to forget the pain in her ankle. Second, she was trying to forget that it was Spike who was carrying her. She had almost fallen asleep on his shoulder. He has smelled so good and seemed so safe. Then she rememered it was Spike and that was like a splash of water.

They arrived at Spike's crypt without any vamp attacks. He quickly looked around for Harmony and then took her inside.He set her in his green chair and looked around for bandages. Buffy cringed. The whole room reeked of smoke and bourbon. "Spike, do you do anything but smoke and drink?" Buffy said. "well I play poker,kill demons, does annoying you count?" he said.

Spike wrapped her ankle quickly. He decided it wasn't that bad."With Slayer Healing and all that you should be fine by tomorrow" he told her. "well if i'm of the good i'm leaving' she said, sliding off the chair. She could stand but her walk was kind of wobbly. "no way" he stated flatly. "you get attacked and all your scooby friends blame me and I don't fancy a game of kick the spike tonight. You can stay here."

"with you?" she asked incredulously. "I'm not staying here alone with you. I don't sleep with demons."

"I'll be just like your Boy Scout, I promise. You can even chain me up if you want to." He leered at her suggestively."Chains!" She almost shrieked "What are you doing with chains? Do even want to know?" "Do you want me to show you what I do with the chains?" he asked innocently but with a devilish smile. "NO!" She loudly stated. "I really don't wanna know" She settled herself on his chair again. "Ya got any blankets?" she asked him. He looked at her as if she was crazy. "i'm a vampire. I don't get cold. Use my duster. And I swear if you snore I'm gonna suffocate you" She made a face at him and threw the duster over herself. He settled him self on his crypt and stared at her as she drifted to sleep.
