Ok OK... I’m going to straighten a few things out. I’m sorry to those of you who like to see Spike and Julia together. -.-;; whelp, you wont be seeing that in my story. Sorry, I’m a Spike/Faye person myself ^^. I hope I don’t lose readers over that. Also, Vicious and Faye do NOT belong together! *shudders* ew.... He’s good looking in a morbid way, but Spike’s the hero/hottie guy! Lol, welp... I have a lot of twisting in this story, I think. Hehe... So just read and tell me what you think when you’re done. Thanx to those who have reviewed already!

“Say please,” a high school kid said.
His buddies laughed as they passed a small scooter around.
“Give it back! Edward needs her scooter to go to school!” a young girl yelled.
Spike had just been walking by, his hands in his pockets he was just going to over look it. “Damnit,” he cursed himself turning around. Usually he didn’t interfere with this kind of thing. But, he had to teach some pathetic losers to be nice to little kids, didn’t he? He couldn’t let them do that.
Well, yes he could. But today he felt like being a good citizen.
He casually strolled over to the three guys surrounding the girl. He looked around expecting to see a young boy with her as well, but it was just her and her laptop. The boys kept laughing and teasing her.
“Give the girl’s toy back to her,” Spike demanded emotionlessly.
They just looked at him and shrugged him off.
“Get lost!” one of them yelled.
He chuckled a bit to himself, “When you give her her scooter back I’ll leave. If not We can all stay and have a party. Of course I wont be leaving the party shit-faced.”
The biggest of the group stepped up to Spike eyeing him. He tried to intimidate the green-haired boy.
“You tryin’ to start something?” he asked getting up in Spike’s face. He pushed him.
Spike took a step back but was unfazed by this petty action.
“Why don’t you just give her the scooter back? You’re just making it harder on yourselves.” Spike looked at them with boredom written all over his face.
The boy that pushed him swung his fist quickly.
Not quick enough.
Spike dodge it and elbowed the kid in his chest making him fall over. The other two decided to join and tossed the scooter down. They jumped towards Spike at the same time. Spike stepped out of the way kicking one of them in the butt as they flew past him. The other got up and tried to kick him but it was blocked and he was kicked instead.
“This isn’t worth it man! I’m outta here!” one said jumping off the ground and running away.
“Gah! Wait for me!” the other two got up as well and followed his lead.
Spike started to walk away when he felt a sudden weight on his left leg. He looked down to see the red-haired girl on his leg. She smiled brightly up and him her yellow cat-like eyes dancing with happiness.
“You saved Ed’s scooter!” she exclaimed.
“Uh... I... Who?”
“Ed’s! Me! Me Ed! Who are you? You are who?” she asked going cross-eyed for a second.
“I um... Spike.” He said trying to shake her off his leg.
“Edward!” a feminine voice called.
Spike turned to see the girl he had stereo-typed as a slut the other day. Today she dressed almost the same except she wore tennis shoes and a red tank-top with a long sleeved, gray shirt tied around her waist.
“Faye-Faye!” the girl named Ed jumped off Spike’s leg just to jump on Faye’s.
“Sorry, she’s always running off like that,” Faye told Spike prying the thin redhead off her legs.
“She your kid sister?” he asked not really interested.
“No actually, she isn’t.” Faye stated putting her hands on her hips.
“Oh,” was all he said. He turned to leave when she called to him.
“Aren’t you in reading with Mrs. Wending fifth period?” she asked.
“Yeah, I am, it’s nothing big,” he said nonchalantly still walking away.
“How rude,” Faye mumbled under her breath. “Hey! Wait up!” she called running up to him. “You’re not a people person are you,” she asked smiling tilting her head to see his down cast eyes.
“Gee how’d you guess,” he was definitely sarcastic. Which, she noted, was kind of sexy.
He looked at her, he was annoyed but decided against saying anything about it.
“We were never properly introduced,” she paused still eyeing him, “I’m Faye, Faye Valentine, you?” She held out her hand to him.
“He accepted her offer and shook her hand to be nice, “Spike.”
She laughed a little. “your name is Spike? Do you have a last name?”
Grumbling he said, “Yeah, my name’s Spike, gotta problem with that?”
“Nope, it just sounds silly,” she giggled some more. “So what’s your last name?”
“You wont need it,” he turned the corner taking another route to school. Faye looked at him but decided she didn’t want to take the long way and continued walking down the same street they had been on.
“Girls are so annoying,” Spike thought, “Well, except for Julia, she’s not annoying.”
“Geez, the guys around here are such assholes,” Faye thought out loud. She continued to walk not paying attention, “this day is probably going to suck,” she shrugs. “That’s life for ya’.”

“Spi-i-ke? Spiegel!?” Mr. Black stuttered.
“That’s mah’ name, don’t wear it out,” Spike casually strolled to his seat, sat down, and stayed awake??
“Where’s the real Spike Spiegel?” Mr. Black smirked. “It’s nice to see you’ve finally taken an interest in school. I was beginning to think you actually wanted to fail.”
“Who says I took and ‘interest’ in school?” the young Spike said laying back in his seat cupping his hands behind his head.
“Well then, it’s good to see you’ve taken and interest in something.” Black turned away to write something on the board.
“Gah! Ack! Oh no!”
Both Mr. Black and Spike looked up to see a mass of purple, red and gray hit the floor.
Spike raised an eyebrow, “Faye?”
The girl that had stumbled in looked up, “Oh, hey Spike,” she got up showing no embarrassment. She gathered her fallen books. She stood up straight and walked over to Mr. Black, “You’re the teach right?”
“Yeah I’m the ‘teach’,” he said.
She handed him the white slip of paper, “I’m Faye Valentine,” she said proudly.
“Ok Miss Valentine, go sit over there,” he pointed to the set on the right of Spike.
“What?! C’mon Jet!! You know I like my space!” Spike said.
“It’s MR. Black, Spiegel. And I know you like your ‘space’ in the back but that’s the only ‘space’ I can put her in.” he stated matter-o-factly.
“Damn,” The green haired boy sighed and looked to Faye, “So how come you weren’t in this class yesterday?”
She didn’t answer, instead she was hunched over her desk writing something.
“Are you listening?!” he asked annoyed with her.
“Oh, what? What do you want?” she blinked at him.
“I asked why you weren’t in here yesterday,” he replied sourly.
“Oh,” she went back to writing, “I got here late, so this is my first time in this and my next few classes.”
Spike sighed sitting back again. The bell had rung and the rest of the students filed into the room seating themselves in the same seats they had been sitting in for well... for too long on many of their calendars.
Mr. Black rambled on and on about how the essays that were turned in had bad grammar. He also made comments about how he didn’t understand how some of the kids made it into his class. “I wont even get into your spelling mistakes! For crying out loud use a dictionary!” he continued to scold the whole class.
Faye sighed, rather loudly, Spike had caught it and looked at her. She didn’t notice she just kept writing.
“Hm... looks like a diary or something, or maybe it’s just last minute homework for another class,” he thought. He decided hearing Black talk about bad papers and nit-pick a few was boring. “Unnecessary really.” he thought. Before he had gotten to class he had made his way to his locker, for the first time in a while he had grabbed two books and a plain notebook. He smirked pulling his notebook out from under his desk. “Ah, the simple things in life,” his mind sighed. He opened the book filthied with doodles.
Little did he know...
“She’s cute,” he heard and closed the book hurriedly.
“Huh?” he looked up to see Faye peaking over his shoulder.
“She’s cute,” Faye repeated.
Spike grumbled and slide his notebook under his desk. “Mind your own business,” he went back to pretending to pay attention in class.
“Do you always take compliments so well?” she asked with a smirk.
“Yeah, sure, whatever, you were snooping go away.”
“Fine, I was just trying to make friends, geez... so moody,” she went back to writing whatever she was writing earlier.
The bell rang, slowly Faye drew her eyes away from what she had been writing and dazedly got up with her books and walked out. Tiredly Spike made his way to and out the door. Mr. Black sighed after them knowing very well they weren’t paying attention.

Spike sat down at a table outside of the lunchroom to wait for Julia. He sighed wondering if she had come to school today. He looked over to another table to see Faye, she was sitting eating a sandwich. Soon a boy showed up next to her, a minute later the boy left after receiving a slap on the face. Spike smirked, that girl was something funny.
Faye looked over to see Spike sitting alone as well. He looked like he was waiting for someone. “I’m surprised he has friends with his attitude,” she thought.
“Mind if I sit down?” a tall boy with sandy blonde hair asked taking a seat even before she answered.
She hadn’t said anything yet, so he kept talking. “I noticed you were here alone, what’s a nice lookin’ girl like you doin’ all by herself?”
Faye shrugged, “Don’t know anybody,” she didn’t seem to interested in him.
“Well, if you’d like...” he started placing his hand on her knee, “We could get to know each other,” he smirked rubbing he leg with his thumb.
Faye grumbled getting aggravated by this guy and his stupid actions.
SMACK!
“Get lost asshole! I’m not what you think so piss off!”
Getting up quickly while rubbing his cheek, glaring at her, and ran off to go patch up his ego.
Faye just continued to sit alone, maybe a nicer guy would come...
Someday.
