| Time Bring Change Part 5 by Lady Myst Disclaimer: Plot is mine...characters are not. Dawn woke up to the feeling of comfort and a sense of belonging. She looked over and saw Spike, he had his arms around her. She smiled and snuggled closer to him, casing him to stir. Spike looked over at Dawn, she was pressed against him, and it felt good. Not snugly good, but naughty, wanton good. He knew he shouldn't be thinking about her like that, but he couldn't help it. His lust for her was followed a close second by his lust for her blood. "Morning Little Bit." "More like evening, but ok." She didn't want to move, ever. She had been in love with Spike for as long as she could remember. Now he was back, in her bed, pressed against her.... "So pet, you gonna tell me what happened?" Dawn's head shot up. "W-what do you mean? Nothing happened." She really did not want to do this now. She didn't want to do it at all. "Don't pull that with me love. I bloody well know something happened. Buffy ran off didn't she? The poof and Cor are living here aren't they? The annoying gang seems to have disappeared. So don't bleeding tell nothing happened." Dawn tried to roll away from him, but he only growled at her and pulled her back. "Fine. You want to know, then I'll tell you." She shoved him away, this time ignoring his growl and began pacing the room. "They all left or died because of me! Because I'm some fucking key that Glory the hell god wanted. Willow, Xander, Anya, and Tara all died in that last fight to save me! Buffy had skipped town before the fight so it was only us, Angel came from LA to help. If he hadn't I'd be dead and hell would have taken over the world-" Dawn stopped as her tears got to be to much. Spike stood and went over to Dawn. "Nibblet, it wasn't your fault." "Yes it was. If I had, had the courage to kill myself then Glory would have never gotten her damn key, and everyone would still be alive." "Thats bullshit and you know it! Glory would have figured out where her bloody key was, whether you were alive or not she would have killed them!" Spike was so frustrated with her that he was yelling. But he didn't know how to deal with this. Dawn's knees gave out and Spike caught her before she hit the ground. He held her while she cried, doing his best to comfort her, but not knowing what to say or do. "You're not alone in this luv, you've got Angel, and Cor, and you've got me." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Spike came downstairs feeling much better now that Dawn was asleep. He felt awkward with her crying and looking at him with those big gorgeous eyes, begging him to make it better. He came around the corner, only to be slammed against the wall by Angel. "I heard her crying, I heard you yelling. If you hurt her, I will rip your fucking heart out with my bare hands." He shoved him one last time then disappeared. "Good to see the poof hasn't changed." He decided against hanging around downstairs and headed back to Dawns room. He opened her door, just stood there and looked at her. She was so bloody beautiful, so out of his reach. He wanted her, right or wrong, every part of his body screamed at him to take her. He lay down next to her, knowing there would be no going back. He leaned over and gently pressed his lips to hers, feeling her wake with a small moan. TBC |
