Willow sighed when she pulled up in front of a Buffy's house. The 
whole trip home had been full of strange looks from Buffy and crude 
remarks from Spike. She was never so glad to get out of the car, as 
she was right then. Buffy opened the door and yelled for Giles.
"Look dad Willow brought you a friend home." Giles looked at Spike 
and smiled, "William what a surprise. I invite you in. How are things 
in LA? And Angel?"
Buffy shook her head, "Has everyone lost their minds tonight. HE IS A 
VAMPIRE. The slayer over there fucks him and dad invites him in." 
"Buffy Anne Summers, what has gotten into to you tonight", Joyce 
yelled.
"Buffy I know that you think that humans good, demons bad, but 
sometimes it doesn't work that way. I would have been dead by now if 
it wasn't for Spike and Angel. As for the sex part, yes I did have 
sex with him and Angel but there are things about me that you cannot 
understand. Things about being a slayer", Willow tried to explain and 
sat down on the couch next to Buffy.
"Willow, you don't have to explain yourself to Buffy", Joyce told her.
"I know but I want too. Buffy sometimes being the slayer can be too 
much. As much as I wish I could save everyone I can't and that can be 
too much for me to handle. I remember the first person I couldn't 
save, I had nightmares for weeks. She was just a kid and she lost the 
chance to grow old. I was thirteen at the time. Sometimes you have 
to find an outlet for all the anger that can build up inside. Yes I 
admit that it was not one of my finer moments but it beat the 
alternative of just finding a stranger. I knew that Spike or Angel 
wouldn't hurt me."
"I'm sorry it really isn't any of my business", Buffy said looking 
sheepish.
"Ok then now that that is out of the way why are you here, Spike", 
Giles asked.
"Angel sent me down here with a book. He said for you to read it and 
to call if you have any questions. He wanted to come himself but he 
couldn't leave."
"Thank you I will look it over. Did he say what to look for", Giles 
asked looking at the book.
"No just for me to tell you to read it but he told me to stay and 
watch the slayer's ass."
Willow groaned, "He did not mean that literally either Spike."
"I don't know Red, he always did like your ass the best."
"Xander do you still have that stake", Willow said and caught it when 
he threw it at her, "Now William, what did we talk about. We do not 
talk about me like that or so help me god I will forget that I 
promised to never kill someone that works for the council."
"Don't get your panties in a bunch", Spike told her. 
"I'm going to go get Dawn and get out of here." Xander laughed and 
turned toward the blonde vampire, "Man you sure do like to live 
dangerously don't you?"
"Yeah but Red would never hurt me just like I would never hurt her. I 
just like to ruffle her feathers, keep her on her toes."
"Well Spike since you will be in town we start her training Monday 
would you like to give me a hand", Giles asked Spike.
"Ripper have you ever seen her fight?"
"No I haven't." Spike chuckled, "You are in for one hell of a 
surprise then, watcher. I have never seen a slayer who can fight like 
she can. By the time she had been training for three months she was 
kicking my ass on a daily basis."
"Well then this should be interesting."
"Rupert, I have never said this about a slayer before but she is 
going to make it to be a little old white haired lady who sits on her 
front porch and yells at the neighborhood kids. She has a fire that 
will see her through."
"Thank you, Spike. That means a lot coming from you", Willow said 
from the bottom of the steps. She was carrying a half asleep Dawn but 
as soon as the girl saw Spike her eyes opened and she put her arms 
out for him.
"Ike, Ike, mama Ike", she squealed. As soon as she was in his arms 
she began to pat him on the forehead.
"Don't you dare", Willow yelled but she was too late. Spike morphed 
into his game face and Dawn clapped her hand together and laughed.
"You are a pain in my ass. You know I hate when you do that. God do 
you get on my nerves on purpose."
"I missed you too, Pet", Spike teased.
"Come on I have to get her home. Where are you staying", Willow asked 
Spike.
"Angel has an apartment in town. I'll be in touch, maybe I'll stop by 
tomorrow."
"You do and I will ship your ashes back to Angel in a box", Willow 
warned him and shoved him out the door.
"Mrs. Joyce, Giles goodnight. Guys thanks for letting me go tonight", 
Willow gave them a small smile. Buffy heard Spike say, "Oh no we 
would want the vampire to ruin your date with the cute girl now would 
we."
`She has a date with a girl. She's gay. No she slept with Spike. Damn 
this is to confusing even for me', Buffy thought.


The next afternoon Joyce came out onto the front porch and sat down 
beside her daughter. Buffy didn't even hear her come out, she was too 
caught up watching the red head across the street. Willow was out 
weeding the flower beds that were in the front yard. She had brought 
out the playpen and Dawn was sitting enjoying the sun. 
"Buffy, what's going on. You haven't said five words all day to 
anyone."
"Nothing, mom. I guess I just have a lot on mind today."
"This wouldn't have anything to do with Willow now would it."
"NO", Buffy said a little too loudly. Joyce raised her eyebrows.
Buffy sighed, "Ok maybe a little. I just don't understand her."
"And you want to don't you. Do you have a crush on the new slayer?"
"MOM"
"Don't mom me. Buffy I know that you have a thing for girls. I have 
for a little while now. I noticed that you would give the girls the 
once over but if a boy came around you hardly even noticed."
"Why didn't you ever say anything?"
"I figured you would tell me when you were ready."
"Your ok with it?"
"Well Buffy it worries me a little. I know the world doesn't think 
like me. There may come a time when people will say bad things and I 
worry that it might get physical. I love you no matter if your gay, 
straight or somewhere in between. You are my daughter and my love for 
you in unconditional."
"Does Dad know?"
"Yes and he fells the same way. So relax and enjoy life. You are 
young and have a while to figure things out. As for Willow she is a 
wonderful girl, I think for your first crush you couldn't have picked 
a better person. She has lived a long life for someone who is so 
young. Do you plan on telling her how you feel?"
"I don't know. I saw her kissing this girl last night and I think she 
has a date with her tonight. I don't guess she does cause there she 
is", Buffy said as she saw Susan across the street.


Willow was cursing the prevous owner of her house for letting the 
flower beds get this bad when she felt a precence behind her.
"So is this how all the college girls hang out on Saturday afternoons 
because if it is then I have been doing it all wrong", Susan asked.
"Only the cute ones with kids."
"How are you."
"Dirty, am I late or are you early?"
"Well I could lie and tell you that you are late but I'm early. I was 
sitting around my dorm room and decided that I wasn't going to get 
anything done so I might as well come early. Can I help?"
"Why couldn't you get anything done might I ask?"
"Well I had this woman that I couldn't get off my mind."
"I'm glad that you came early then, now get down here and help me see 
if there is anything in here but weeds. It's not looking encouraging."

Joyce and Buffy sat on the front porch and watched the two young 
girls across the street, "Well they definitely seem to be getting 
along", Joyce sighed feeling bad for Buffy. Joyce watched as Susan 
picked up the hose and crept over to Dawn, who was in her playpen. 
She picked up the small girl and they made their way behind Willow, 
who was bent over. Susan put the sprayer in Dawn hands and helped her 
pull it. Buffy had to chuckle when Willow turned around and started 
to chase the two around the yard. She looked like a drowned rat. 


"Hey that was so not fair", Willow said running after them and 
catching them, "And no fair hiding behind the kid." She started to 
tickle them.
"I give, you win", Susan said between laughs. 
"That's more like it", Willow said and got lost in the brown eyes. 
She leaned forward and kissed her.
"Well if that's reaction I get, I'll get you wet all the time", Susan 
said and then blushed at the double meaning of what she had just 
said. Willow smirked and got up.
"Hmm, if your lucky you might just find out." Willow picked up the 
hose and rinsed her hands and then turned the hose on Susan, "plus 
payback is a bitch." Susan tried to dodge the water but it was no 
use, "That was just plain evil."
"Ahh, I make it up to you later."
"Promise", Susan asked a flash of desire in her eyes.
"Come on lets go in and find you some dry clothes", Willow said and 
took her by the hand. 
"Trying to get me out of my clothes on the first date."
"Do I have to try", Willow asked. Susan looked at Willow for a minute 
and then shook her head, "No."
