Letting himself into his mothers flat, Spike realised she wasn’t there and left a note for her when she returned. Locking the door behind him he strolled back to his car, whistling a tune and smiling at everyone he passed. Everyday should start with mind-blowing sex he had decided somewhere between the bed and the double shower cubicle.
And today was a time for new beginnings. His girls were tentatively exploring their relationship with their parents, and exams started on the first Monday after Christmas and the New Year so once they made it through this last day of classes before the holidays they would be free for three gloriously long weeks.
Opening the door to their dorm room Spike decided to rearrange things a little to make them more at home before his class this afternoon.
Moving the bed’s together with the drawer chests either side of the makeshift double he smiled, making a mental note to buy a double duvet for them. It looked homely and cosy now. Somewhere they could be themselves, and still enjoy the benefits of being out of their parents’ homes.
One of those benefits being that he was here all alone now, time to catch up on some work. He wanted to pass this year with good grades. His mother would kill him if he didn’t. She had put herself out moving back to the States, found herself a good job on the faculty and gotten him into the university. He never thought he’d be happy about losing his single suite, but without all that trouble he never would have met and fallen in love with Buffy.
Even if he did think she was the most infuriating chit on the face of the earth when they were thrust together.
Wondering what she thought of him when she saw him, he fell asleep on his textbook.
Shutting the door softly, Buffy smiled at his sleeping form, hunched over the desk with a pen still in his hand.
Answering the knock at the door she whispered greetings, ushering her friends into her room. Introducing herself to Willow’s new friend Tara, Buffy found herself smiling. It was nice to see her friend so happy, even if she wasn’t ready to tell anyone yet. There had been much discussion on the topic in the Desoto coming back from LA with Dawn in near hysterics at the thought of Angel and Riley in the hot tub after hours. Buffy had felt it Willow’s business to let her sister in on her secrets and had kept quiet, thinking about love in general while Dawn and Spike laughed about the unlikely couple.
At least he was out of her life. He father had made sure that he would rush through a restraining order, keeping Riley from going within a mile of Revello Drive, and away from Buffy herself.
Life was great.
Lounging on the double bed with Willow, Tara, Xander and Anya, Buffy grinned when Spike lifted his head blearily.
“Hey cutie.” He yawned, looking at his watch. He’d missed his last class. Oh well. Nodding at their company he tilted his head side to side, cracking his neck audibly. “What you nattering about?”
“L.A.” Buffy answered before Anya could open her mouth again.
“I like your room.” An unfamiliar voice said softly. Smiling at the blonde newcomer he looked at the room. All he’d done is shove the beds together.
“Thanks.” He ducked his head, unsure of how to act. This was definitely the bird little Red had been snogging in the coffee shop. Did he miss her coming out?
“We were just deciding where to go for a meal tomorrow. Any ideas?” Buffy asked, turning and shushing Xander’s excited cry of ‘Pizza Hut!’
“Not fussed love.” Spike grinned at the dorky kid. He was dressed in yet another glaringly bright Hawaiian shirts, but had his arms around his bird. Treating his girl well was something Spike valued in a guy and any opportunity to get a step closer to Buffy and be in her life was good in his eyes. “We’ll just leave the girls to chat while we do manly things right Harris?”
“And drink beer.” Xander grinned, beating his chest like Tarzan. “Me drink, you chat.”
Ignoring the fact that Anya had practically climbed on top of her boyfriend to make out, Willow smiled.
“The Steakhouse then?”
“The Steakhouse it is.” Buffy agreed, trying not to stare at the obvious closeness of the lesbian couple as they sprawled across the beds, chattering about their lives and all the changes since high school.
Hearing a knock at the door she called out for the person to enter, grinning happily at her younger sister as her head poked around the door.
“Hey Dawnie.” Willow greeted cheerily, introducing her to Tara then pointing out Anya who was still attached to Xander’s mouth. Pulling a childish face at the otherwise engaged couple she smiled.
“Just thought I’d drop by, see how you are.” She grinned, “Plus I can’t take much more of Mom apologising!”
Chuckling, Spike wrapped his arms around the young brunette’s shoulders, pressing a kiss to her hair. “Make the most of it,” He mock whispered, “You’ll be in trouble for something in a week or so.”
Giggling, Dawn pushed him away, jumping onto the bed for a hug. It was nice to feel wanted by not just her sister, but a close circle of friends who not only valued her as a little sister, but as a person.
“Buffy told you I’m adopted right?” She said lightly, trying to break up the hug and failing miserably. If anything it made them squeeze harder.
She giggled underneath the mass of arms and bodies. Life wasn’t so bad after all.
She didn’t need to know where she came from to know where she belonged.
This was home.
