Stupid Riley had to go and wake up Dawn! Can't wait to find out what happens next!

Author's Response: thank you so much for reviewing.

Poor Buffy, her mind really is confused, she was dressing for a date before she caught herself doing it. (Or maybe her subconsious mind wanted it to be a date?)

Joyce asked Spike to take Buffys mind off of her operation. Only Spike would think that a good fight was what she needed. (Well, there isn't actually suppose to be a fight, but thinking there was going to be one did take Buffys mind off of her mother for a little bit.) So maybe Spike knows what he's doing after all.

Spike got her to talk, to say and face the truth. He was there for her, he tried to help, she lashed out at him, hurt him, but still he stayed, to help her.

Buffy asked Riley to do just one thing, stay with her sister while she delt with a demon problem. But Riley couldn't do that, he needed to feel like a man, in control, powerful. So he slammed out of the house, woke Dawn up, and left her all alone in an empty house during a thunder storm. {Wanker!!!}

Really likeing this story!!! Looking forward to the next update!!!
