Dawn looked at Giles and smiled "Your welcome. As soon as I can I'll come over to watch them with you. We'll have a little party while we discuss the best parts."
Giles smiled at her as they headed back to the table with the books in hand.
***********
For the rest of the afternoon and early evening everyone was in research mode. They discussed 'who' or 'what' could have the magical power to harness the Hellmouth and aim it's energy at Buffy to try to kill her. They made a list of all of Buffy's known enemies and eliminated most of them early on because they were either dead or didn't have any abilities with magic. Of the few that were left over, none of them were currently in the Sunnydale area. At least not to anyone's knowledge.
The one person that stood out on the list was Ethan Raines. Three times before he had come to Sunnydale and caused trouble. He had never 'directly' tried to kill Buffy before, but she could have been killed 'indirectly' each time. The last they had heard of him he was being taken away by the 'Initiative' to a Top Secret prison for an extended stay. As far as they knew he was still there.
The one person with the greatest power and the most reason for wanting Buffy dead was Glory. When Buffy had defeated her and forced her back into her human form (Ben) she had made him swear to never return to Sunnydale. Of course, how much could she really trust the word of a crazy 'God' if she was back in control of the dual personality? Giles insisted that he was certain it wasn't Glory, but didn't explain to Buffy why. (With her death to save Dawn and close the rip between demon realms she had never found out that Ben was dead and Glory could never return.)
Others on the list that might want Buffy dead were Faith and Angelus. Faith was in prison (and according to Angel she had changed and was trying to redeem herself). If Angle had lost his soul and had become Angelus again, he was much more likely to come after Buffy directly and not try to use magic. And besides, if he had become Angelus again, Wesley, Fred or Cordy would have contacted them to let them know. Darla and Drusilla were on the list also, but Darla didn't have any magical abilities and Drusilla was too crazy to stay focused for the months that had been involved in the plot to kill Buffy.
In the end, by a reluctant consensus, they agreed that it must be someone new that they hadn't encountered before. 'Who' or 'what' it was, was an unknown. Why they wanted Buffy dead was unknown. Had they been destroyed in the splash back of power when the attempt failed was unknown. Was there a danger of further attacks, another unknown? No one was happy with their lack of progress at determining who it might be that had attacked Buffy and caused so much death and destruction in Sunnydale.
With the lack of progress in their research, Buffy started getting fidgety. She had never enjoyed research, she preferred direct action. With the setting of the sun she decided she could burn off some of her tension by going on patrol. With her time being unconscious and in recovery, it had been weeks since her last patrol. Giles had assured her that she didn't need to worry, the whole Sunnydale area was undergoing a period of unusual calm since she regained consciousness. On one level, Buffy was very grateful for this, on another it worried her.
Who had the power to tell the vampires and demons to lay low and not cause any problems while the out of town government and news media people were still around? Was it the same person that had attacked her? If it was the same person, that meant they hadn't been killed in the splash back of power from the Hellmouth. That meant they were still out there and a danger to Buffy. It also meant that they were a danger to her friends and the rest of the people of Sunnydale. Buffy discussed this with Giles, but again it was another blind alley since they had no idea who might have ordered the vampires and demons to behave themselves and had the power to make them do so.
***
Feeling frustrated, Buffy went into the back room to see if she could find something to wear on patrol. She knew she could patrol wearing a skirt, she had done so many times. But unless she was willing to split it up one side it could limit her ability to kick and run if she needed too. She opened her locker and found a pair of pants that she dearly loved. She took the skirt off and slipped the pants on. She loved the way they fit her because the way they were cut made them form fit to her ass and made it look great. Looking at them in the mirror also reminded her why they were in her locker as an emergency set of cloths. The material was light and strong, but for some reason it seemed to attract grass stains like a magnet. The last time she had worn them she had been knocked on her ass by a vampire and had a big grass stain that hadn't washed out.
As she stood there looking over her shoulder at her reflection she decided that she really needed to buy herself another pair of pants just like these, but maybe in a darker color that wouldn't show grass stains so much. She loved the way they seemed to lift and separate the cheeks of her ass, showing it off to its very best advantage. A thought passed through her mind as she admired the way her ass looked. Tara had restored her leather pants after they had been ruined in the sewers a few weeks ago. She wondered if she could do the same thing for these pants, and maybe make them stain resistant too?
***
When Buffy rejoined the others in the front of the shop, Dawn took one look at the pants she was wearing and joined her immediately. As soon as she was certain Giles wasn't looking their way she ran one of her hands over Buffy's ass and gave it a little squeeze. "God, I love those pants" Dawn whispered to her. "Every time you wear them they make me wet thinking about taking them off you!"
Buffy looked around to make sure Giles was out of site and reached down between Dawns legs and rubbed her pussy. "Are you wet now" Buffy asked her in a whisper as she smiled at Dawn? "If I don't get home to late, maybe I'll let you help me take them off."
"I'll be waiting" Dawn responded as she gave Buffy's ass another squeeze.
As Buffy and Dawn had been talking, Willow and Tara walked over and joined them. "Can we get in on that too," Willow asked? "The taking off part," Tara added?
Buffy smiled at the three of them and winked. She then asked Tara, "Would it be possible for you to remove the grass stains from these pants and maybe make them stain resistant? You saved my leather pants when they were ruined, could you save these?"
Tara smiled at Buffy; "I usually don't like to use magic for cleaning cloths, unless it's important. But if you let me help take them off you, I'll fix them tomorrow."
"It's a deal" Buffy replied as she gave Tara a hug.
"What about me" Willow asked with a false pout on her lips?
"You can always help me take my pants off Wil, anytime" Buffy told her as she gave her a hug also.
Drawn to the four of them exchanging hugs, Xander, Anya and Giles walked over to them. "What's going on," Xander asked, "what's with the hugging? Am I missing out on some of the good stuff?"
"Not really Xan" Buffy said as she turned to him and gave him a hug. As Xander hugged her in return he gave her ass a squeeze and smiled at her.
"That's good" he replied as he released her from the hug. "I don't want to ever miss out on the good stuff, if I can help it."
Buffy turned and gave Anya a hug, then turned to Giles and hugged him too. "Is there something wrong Buffy" Giles asked with concern?
"No, I'm just in a huggy mood, that's all" Buffy replied as she gave him another hug.
***********
Buffy had been patrolling for almost two hours and hadn't seen anything suspicious at all. No vampires, no demons, not even a mugger or a drug pusher. Even the prostitutes were off the streets. Thinking about it, that in itself was suspicious. For some unknown power to keep the monsters of Sunnydale under wraps was one thing, but keeping the pushers and whores off the streets was a whole new level of control she had never seen before.
As Buffy patrolled she had been on the look out for Spike. She had gone by all his usual haunts, but he hadn't been at any of them. Of course, with all the other vampires and demons in hiding, there wasn't really anything to keep him in one place anyway. As the circle of her patrol brought her past the cemetery where his crypt was located, she decided to see if he was there before going home for the night.
When she got to the crypt she noticed that the door opened and closed without making it's usual loud squealing noise. She also checked the latch on the inside and found that it had been repaired. She didn't lock it behind her; Spike might be out and wouldn't be able to get in if she locked it. When she got to the slab that covered the hole leading down to the underground vaults of the crypt she noticed that the whole upper level of the crypt had been swept clean and most of the cobwebs were gone too.
As she moved the slab to one side so that she could climb down the ladder, she could see that there was a candle burning down below. When she got to the bottom of the ladder she saw that the floor had been swept and the cobwebs removed down here too. The first thought to cross her mind was that Spike had moved out of the crypt for some reason and some kind of 'clean freak' demon had moved into it.
When she got to the doorway of the vault that Spike used as his living area she saw immediately that his huge bed was still in place. She also saw by the light of several burning candles that this room had also been cleaned up. She looked inside the room for Spike, but didn't see him anywhere. As she turned to leave she found Spike standing a couple of feet behind her with a crossbow in his hands. Buffy was so startled that she let out a yelp and jumped backward into the room several feet.
"Jesus Spike" Buffy gasped out with a shaken voice. "You nearly scared me to death."
"Sorry Slayer" Spike said quietly, but with a tone of suspicion in his voice. "I wasn't expecting company. What are you doing here?"
"Do I need a reason" Buffy asked defensively?
"Usually" Spike replied as he walked into the room and set the crossbow down on a table. "Most of the times you've stopped by it was either to ask me to do something for you or for some kind of information. Either that, or to beat me up for something you thought I'd done. Which is it this time?"
Buffy looked at Spike and realized that for the most part he was right. She very seldom came to his crypt when she didn't want something from him or to threaten him. Even this time, part of the reason for stopping by was to see if he had anymore information about 'who' or 'what' had tried to kill her. Buffy was embarrassed by this revelation and started blushing because she didn't have a good answer to his question. By the look on Spikes face she could tell that he understood the truth of the situation.
"Uh, Ah," Buffy stammered out, "I, ah. I stopped by to thank you again. I didn't get to say it very well last night."
"You said enough" Spike said gruffly. "Your grateful, you won't forget. I heard you. What else did you want to say?"
Buffy was shocked by Spikes behavior and attitude and started getting pissed off at him. "What's your problem" she snapped at him. "All I wanted to do was thank you for protecting me and saving my life. Sure I wanted to ask if you had any more information about some things, but I meant it when I said I was grateful." As she said this to Spike, Buffy turned and walked several feet away from him. She was getting so mad at him that she thought that if she didn't walk away from him she would hit him, and she didn't want to do that tonight. She 'was' grateful, and she 'didn't' want to hurt Spike tonight.
As she turned and walked away from him Spike noticed the pants that Buffy was wearing and the way they form fitted to her ass and made it even more beautiful than usual. Spike fumbled for his lighter as he searched for his cigarettes in another pocket. By the time he had the cigarette lit Buffy had turned back around and was facing him again, but she was several feet further away from him.
"Look Slayer," Spike said to her with a note of rising anger in his voice. "I appreciate your grateful. What else do you want me to say?"
"I want to know why your being such and ass about it" Buffy snapped back angrily?
Spike spun away from Buffy and kicked the table he had placed the crossbow on earlier. The table shattered and the crossbow sailed across the room. When he turned back to face her he was in full vampire mode. Seeing him like this, Buffy took a step back and reached for the wooden stake inside her jacket.
"That's why" Spike roared at her as he pointed at the stake in her hand. "You think I'm a monster. Every time you see me like this I can read it in your eyes. Even when I'm fighting for you, protecting you, trying to save your life, I still see it. And every time I see that look on your face it rips my guts out." Spike turned away and started looking for the cigarette he had thrown down. When he found it he picked it up from the floor and took a long deep drag off it and pulled the smoke down deep into his lungs.
Buffy was so shocked by what he had said that she was to stunned to say anything. She knew he was right. She did see him as a monster, but not all the time. Sometimes she saw something inside of him that was soft and gentle. Sometimes she saw a spark of something in him that drew her like a flame. Sometimes that spark made her want to reach out to him with her heart.
As he let the smoke escape from his lungs, Spike said in a quiet desperate voice "I know you don't love me. I don't even know if you like me. But I love you Buffy. I love you so much that every time I see that look on your face this dead heart inside my chest breaks to pieces. Every time I want to reach out to touch you I have to stop myself, because I can't stand seeing you flinch and back away." As he said this Spikes face morphed back to normal. He took another long drag off his cigarette as he watched Buffy standing there in silence. When she didn't say anything he let the smoke out in a long plume toward the ceiling and turned his back to her with his shoulders hunched and his head bowed,
Buffy stood there for several long moments not knowing what to say or do. She looked at the wooden stake in her hand and at Spike standing there with his back to her. As she let the stake slip from her fingers she felt a pain in her heart that she hadn't felt since Angle had left her. She walked up to him from behind and put her hand on his arm. When he didn't turn to face her she walked around him so that she was facing him. When she was in front of him she was shocked again by what she saw. Tears were running from his eyes down his cheeks, dripping to the floor.
"Spike. William." Buffy said in a choking voice. "You're right, I don't love you. Or at least I don't think I do. But I do feel something, and it scares me. That's why I flinch away. I'm not afraid of the monster inside of you. I'm afraid of the feelings inside myself. But I'm not afraid tonight, not right now."
When Spike opened his eyes to look at Buffy she stepped forward, raised her arms up, wrapped them around his neck and pulled his head down so that she could kiss him. At first Spike was hesitant, but when Buffy didn't pull away and continued to kiss him, he returned the kiss.
As the kiss continued Buffy's breathing through her nose became faster and faster. She opened her mouth and probed into his with her tongue. Her hold around his neck became stronger. She pressed her body against him tighter. He could feel her heart beating through his whole body. With his arms around her he lifted her off her feet. She wrapped her legs around his waist and held onto him even tighter. He slowly turned and walked to the bed carrying her without breaking the kiss.
When they bumped against the bed Buffy released her hold around Spikes neck, but not the kiss. She let her hands run down his chest and started unbuttoning his shirt. When she had difficulty with one of the buttons she pulled at the shirt until the button tore free and fell to the floor. She started pushing and pulling at the shirt to get it off his shoulders. Spike took a half step back breaking the kiss, ripped the shirt off, then took Buffy back into his arms and kissed her again. Buffy ran her hands over his bare chest, around his sides and up and down his back.
Spike could feel Buffy getting warmer and warmer as he ran his hands over her body. Her breathing was very fast and several times she had to break the kiss to catch a deeper breath. During one such break he looked into her eyes and couldn't see any sign of fear or rejection. He unbuttoned her blouse and slipped it and her jacket off her shoulders at the same time. She let her arms drop while he slipped them off her the rest of the way. He reached behind her and unhooked her bra, then slipped it off her too. Buffy wrapped her arms around him and pressed her breasts firmly against his chest. Spike could feel her aroused nipples pressing against him and the heat of her body seemed intense.
While Buffy held on to him and continued to kiss him, Spike reached in between them and unbuttoned and unzipped her pants. He pushed down on them and slid them off her hips. He lifted her up until he had her sitting on the edge of the high bed. He then knelt down and pulled her shoes off, then finished pulling her pants down and off her legs. As she sat there on the edge of the bed he was a little surprised that she wasn't wearing any panties. He stepped back from the bed and kicked his boots off, then stripped off his pants as fast as he could, he didn't wear underwear. When he stepped back to the bed Buffy opened her legs so that he was standing between them. His cock was hard and fully erect. As he pressed against her to kiss her again his cock was pressed against her stomach. Buffy reached down between them and wrapped her fingers around his cock and squeezed it gently as she moved her fingers up and down the shaft.
Although they had had sex before in Buffy's car, because of the way it had happened and the awkward position of straddling his lap with her pants and panties around her ankles and his pushed down past his knees while he was still wearing his shirt and leather coat, it had been rough and almost animalistic. She had straddle fucked him again and again until he couldn't cum anymore, then got off his lap and drove him home to his crypt. She had been in such a state of mind at the time that in someways she had been able to tell herself that it hadn't really meant anything to either of them. This time she knew it meant something. It meant something to her, and she knew it meant something to Spike.
Buffy let their kiss end, let go of Spikes cock and with both hands pushed herself further back onto the bed. Spike climbed up on the bed and lay down next to her. Before he could take any other action, Buffy pressed against his chest until he was lying on his back. She got onto her knees next to him and bending over him she started to gently stroke his cock with her fingertips for a few moments. She then wrapped her fingers around his cock and stroked the length of it more firmly.
When she was certain that he was as hard and firm as he could get she bent over him and started kissing and licking his cock. She then took his cock into her mouth as she sucked on the head of it while she worked her tongue around and around it. She then started bobbing her head up and down, taking more and more of his cock into her mouth each time. Spikes cock wasn't as thick as Xanders, but it was almost as long. She actually found that it was easier to take Spike into her mouth and down her throat because it wasn't as thick.
As she worked her mouth up and down the length of his cock she held it at the base between her thumb and forefinger while she fondled his balls with her other hand. Spike hadn't had any sex with anyone for several weeks. When he started cumming it was like a flood that filled her mouth. Buffy gulped his cum down and kept sucking for more. When he stopped cumming his cock remained hard. Buffy licked its length from base to head to get the last drop of cum. When she was finished she looked up from his cock and smiled at him. Spike pulled at her until she was lying next to him and kissed her deeply, probing with his tongue, tasting his own cum in her mouth.
As he kissed her he started fondling her breasts until her nipples were hard and erect. He bent his head and started licking on first one nipple and then the other. While he sucked on her nipples he ran one hand down her stomach to her pussy. For several minutes, between kissing her and sucking her nipples, he manipulated her clitoris until she was gasping for breath. When he pushed his long index finger into her vagina she was very hot and very wet. She gasped with pleasure as he worked his finger in and out. It only took a few minutes before she had an orgasm. Before she could recover from the orgasm he moved himself around on the bed so that he was half lying across her with his face between her legs. He started licking and sucking her clitoris to stimulate her back to a peak of arousal. When she started to thrust herself against his tongue he slid his hands under her hips as he squeezed her ass and pushed his face deeper between her legs so that he could probe his tongue into her vagina. He licked the juices flowing from her vagina, then started fucking her with his tongue. Buffy started cumming almost immediately and had multiple orgasms. She fucked her pussy against his tongue and came again and again.
As she lay there trying to catch her breath, Spike moved around on the bed and kissed his way back up her body until they were again face to face and kissing deeply again. By this time he was fully recovered from his orgasm and ready to go again. He lifted himself up on top of Buffy, keeping most of his weight on his arms. Buffy spread her legs and reaching down between them found his cock and guided it into her pussy. She wrapped her legs around him and using them pulled him tightly against her forcing his full length inside of her.
When she relaxed her grip on him Spike started fucking in and out of her slowly, pulling halfway out and thrusting his full length back inside of her. Buffy wrapped her arms and legs around him tightly and had another orgasm. When she relaxed her grip again he started fucking her hard with short fast strokes. Buffy started groaning deep in her throat, almost as if she were choking and started having orgasm after orgasm as Spike continued to fuck her hard and fast. Buffy thought that she was going to faint if Spike didn't stop soon. It was in the middle of her fifth or sixth orgasm in a row that she felt him cumming inside of her.
Buffy was certain that Spike would have to rest and she would get a chance to recover. Instead, Spike sat back on his legs, put his hands under Buffy's ass lifting her into position and started licking and sucking and tongue fucking her pussy again. Before she realized it she was having another orgasm and let a shout of pleasure escape. Spike took that as a signal that he had achieved his goal and laid himself down next to Buffy again and kissed her deeply. As they kissed Buffy could taste Spikes cum and the juices from her own pussy on his lips and tongue. She smiled with erotic pleasure as she continued to kiss him deeply.
As Spike lay there recovering while he kissed Buffy, she reached down and started fondling his cock again. She felt a little amazed that he was still hard without any sign of softening. Not wanting to waste an opportunity she turned herself around on the bed, pushed Spike onto his back and lifted herself on top of him so that she was straddling him with her pussy in his face and his cock in hers. When she started licking his cock she could taste his cum and the juices from her own pussy. For some reason she couldn't explain she found this to be one of the most erotic things there was, the taste of a man's cum combined with the taste of a woman's pussy.
From the first time she had licked Xanders cock after he had fucked her, and tasted her own juices combined with his cum, she had found the taste to be highly arousing. Licking and sucking his cum from another woman's pussy was almost as good and she loved doing it to Willow, Tara and Anya. She couldn't wait until they could get Dawn on the pill so that Xander could cum inside her and Buffy could suck his cum from Dawns pussy and taste the two of them mingled together. The thought passed through her mind of sucking Spikes cum from Dawns pussy and found the thought to be very erotic.
As Buffy licked Spikes cock he started licking and sucking her pussy again. He could taste the juices of her pussy mingled with his own cum and enjoyed the taste and sensation it gave him. He had sucked his own cum from Dawns pussy many times and knew that she loved to lick his cock off after fucking him because she loved the taste of them combined together. Buffy seemed to be the same as Dawn in her love of sucking cock and eating cum.
Dawn also liked to kiss him after he had sucked his own cum from her pussy so that she could taste his own cum in his mouth. On a number of occasions he had seen Giles cum in her mouth and then kiss her immediately so that they could swap his cum back and forth from each other's mouths. She had only started kissing Spike like that after she had watched Spike and Giles suck each others cocks and eat each others cum. Thinking of Giles, Spike wondered if Buffy and Giles had ever had sex together. He was certain that Giles would be willing if Buffy wanted to do it. The idea of him and Giles, Dawn and Buffy all having sex together licking, sucking and fucking each other flashed through his mind like a bolt of erotic lightening.
Having thoughts like that was very stimulating and Spike started moving his hips to fuck his cock in and out of Buffy's mouth as she sucked on his cock. Buffy took the hint immediately and started sucking his cock more seriously. Spike also took the hint to reciprocate and gave his full attention to licking and sucking Buffy's pussy. It took less time to bring Buffy to orgasm than it did Spike. He licked and sucked her through two orgasms before he felt himself getting ready to cum.
He lifted his face from Buffy's pussy and rolled her off him onto her side as he rolled up onto his side. He kept his cock in her mouth and started fucking her mouth. Just before cumming he caught Buffy's attention and told her not to swallow. When he started cumming, Buffy held the cum in her mouth instead of swallowing it. As soon as he stopped cumming he pulled his cock from Buffy's mouth, turned around and started kissing her. Buffy let his cum flow from her mouth into his mouth and he let it flow back into hers. They twined their tongues as they tasted his cum in each other's mouths. When they finished the kiss he moved himself so that he could rub his still wet cock across Buffy's lips. She smiled at him and licked the last drops of cum from his cock. When she was finished he bent down and kissed her again.
It was getting late and Spike knew that Buffy would want to be leaving soon, but he had only cum three times and he knew that he was capable of cumming at least one more time before going dry, maybe even two more times. He also wanted to make Buffy have more orgasms. He wanted her to remember this night and want more of them. He knew that Buffy would never have sex with him unless she wanted too. He was going to do his best to make her want to have sex with him again, or die trying.
Spike rolled Buffy onto her back and started kissing her again as he started to play with her clitoris and finger fuck her again. As the sexual tension started building up inside of her as she neared another orgasm Buffy grunted deep in her throat with pleasure. She had no idea how many orgasms she had had tonight, she had lost count, but she knew it was more than twelve, because she had counted at least that many herself.
She had barely finished her orgasm when Spike rolled her over onto her stomach. He moved behind her and pulled her up into a kneeling position with her breasts against the mattress and her ass in the air. He pushed his cock into her pussy from behind, thrusting it in all the way in one stroke. Buffy let out a small gurgle of pleasure. Holding her by the hips he started fucking her with long fast strokes. With each stroke he withdrew almost all the way out of her before thrusting his full-length back inside. Buffy started bucking back against him to meet him on every stroke. Within a couple of minutes she was in the throws of multiple orgasms and only kept fucking back against Spike because he was pulling and pushing at her as he slammed his cock in and out of her like a machine gone wild. When he finally did cum inside of her, Buffy was so overwhelmed by the orgasm she was having she didn't even realize he had stopped fucking her for several moments. She became fully aware of it when he walked around to her on his knees and stuck his cum wet cock in her face. With a smile on her lips she started kissing and licking the juices from her pussy and his cum off his cock.
By the time Buffy had finished licking Spikes cock off she had regained her equilibrium. When Spike bent to kiss her she mumbled that she had to go. Slowly she worked her way over to the edge of the bed and slid off to the floor. She was standing on her own two feet, but had to lean back against the bed for several moments. She found her pants on the floor and pulled them on. She next found her shoes and slipped them on. She couldn't find her bra and decided it wasn't worth the effort to look for it. She bent over and picked up her blouse and her jacket. She put her blouse on and then her jacket. She didn't bother buttoning her blouse, she had it on, that was good enough.
Spike had worn himself out in his efforts to give Buffy a fucking she would never forget. Buffy had her cloths on, sort of, pants unzipped and unbuttoned, no bra, blouse unbuttoned and wide open, jacket on but the collar turned under. The only things she had put back on all the way were her shoes. When she started walking toward the doorway, Spike made the effort and got out of bed to follow her. He didn't bother putting on any cloths, he didn't have the energy.
When they got down the hallway to the ladder it took two tries before Buffy was able to get to the top. Even then she probably wouldn't have made it if Spike hadn't been behind her with his hand on her ass to steady her. When they got to the door of the crypt Spike opened it and stepped outside to stand in the moonlight naked. Buffy stood there for a minute buttoning her blouse up and tucking it into her pants. While she was zipping up her pants and buttoning them, Spike fixed the collar of her jacket. Once she had herself in order Buffy turned to look at Spike standing there naked in the moonlight and smiled. She walked up to him and gave him a final kiss. As they were kissing Spikes cock got hard again and pressed against Buffy's stomach. She reached down and wrapped her fingers around it and gave it a gentle squeeze.
When Buffy let go of Spikes cock and ended the kiss she took a step back from him. She looked at him, smiled and said, "This time when I say 'Thank You', say 'Your Welcome' and mean it!"
Spike looked at Buffy and smiled at her, "Your Welcome".
Buffy smiled again and turned away and started walking home. Fortunately it was only about a mile from the crypt to her house and even as tired as she was it only took about fifteen minutes to get there. By the time she got home she had regained her equilibrium and her strength. As she opened the front door and entered the house she saw the clock on the wall and saw that it was just past two in the morning. She had been at Spikes for almost three hours. When she started up the stairs her legs still felt a little wobbly, but she only smiled at the sensation.
As she walked past Dawns door she decided not to open it to check on her, she didn't want to wake her this late. When she entered her own room she automatically flipped the light on. The first thing she saw was her beautiful naked sister sitting up in bed rubbing her eyes to wake up.
