Dawn Summers shimmied up the tree outside her bedroom window and dropped to the carpet, listening intently to make sure no one had heard her sneaking in after curfew. She could hear the TV downstairs and the sounds of laughter. Breathing a sigh of relief at not having been caught sneaking in, she went downstairs, intent on making everyone believe she'd been up in her room all night, instead of hanging out in the cemetary with Spike. After stopping in the kitchen, she wandered into the living room, glass of soda in hand and flopped down on the couch between Willow and Xander.
"Hey, guys, what's up?"
Willow smiled and passed the bowl of popcorn to Dawn.
"Hey, Dawnie, we're watching American pie. You wanna watch it with us? We can start it over if you want."
Xander nodded.
"Yeah, you should watch it, it's hilarious."
Dawn shook her head.
"No, that's okay. I've already seen it like five times. Besides, I'm really tired from studying all night. I have a big french test on Monday" She replied, crossing her fingers behind her back.
'Oh, please, please, please don't let him know I'm lying, she silently prayed, 'If he or Willow ever found out I was really with Spike all night, I am so dead.'

Xander looked surprised.
"Oh, so that explains why we haven't seen you all night. Well, okay, goodnight then."
"Night guys. I'll see you in the morning."
She walked back upstairs to her room, closing the door behind her. Relieved at having gotten away with it, she walked over to her dresser, turned on the stereo and after changing into her pajamas, climbed into bed and turned out the light. She smiled as the song on the radio made her think of Spike.

How did I get here, turned around and there you were,
I didn't think twice or rationalize 'cause somehow I knew
That there was more than just chemistry, I mean I knew
You were kind of into me, but I figured it's too good to be true.
I said pinch me where's the catch this time, can't find a single
cloud in the sky. Help me before I get used to this guy.
They say that good things take time,
but the really great things happen in the blink of an eye.
I knew the chances to meet somebody like you were a million to one.
I can't believe it, ooh, ooh, you're one in a million.

Smiling, she picked up her cell phone and dialed Spike's number.

*******

Spike was slouched in his armchair, staring at the TV, half-asleep, when he was jolted awake by the sound of his cell phone ringing. He jumped, startled, and hurried to answer it.
"'Lo?" he answered, sleepily.
"Hi, Spike, whatcha doing?"
He smiled when he heard her voice, suddenly wide awake.
"Hey, Bit, not much, just sitting here watching TV. You?"
"I'm laying here in my bed listening to music and missing you."
He smiled.
"I miss you, too. I tried calling your cell phone but all I got was your voicemail."
She shrugged, even though she knew he couldn't see her.
"Sorry, I forgot I shut it off. My bad."
She sighed.
He chuckled.
"You've always been a risk taker, it's one of the things I love most about you. But trust me, you'll be caring plenty if they overhear us talking and you end up grounded, pet."
"So what? If they ground me, I'll just sneak out. It wouldn't be the first time and besides, you're worth it."
He laughed.
"Thanks for the vote of confidence, Luv. Listen, I'm gonna get off here so they don't overhear us talking."
She laughed.
"Relax, Spike, they're downstairs watching a movie, they're not gonna know I'm on the phone, but if it makes you feel better, I'll get my laptop and we'll talk online, okay?"
"Okay, it doesn't matter to me, I'm just trying to keep you out of trouble, that's all."
She laughed.
"Thanks, I'll talk to you in a minute online. I love you."
"I love you, too. Bye."
"Bye."
Dawn hung up the phone and opened her laptop. As soon as she logged on, she recieved an IM from Spike.

Nightwalker1880: Hi, Beautiful.
Sunshine 1987: Hi.
Nightwalker1880: What you doing?
Sunshine1987:Not much, listening to music and missing you like I said on the phone.
Nightwalker1880: Want me to come over?
Sunshine1987: Spike, you can't.
Nightwalker1880: Why not?
Sunshine1987: Because it's 11:30 at night. If Willow or Xander caught you here this late, not only would I never hear the end of it, but Xander would probably stake you.
Nightwalker1880: Yeah, I'd like to see him try it.
Sunshine1987:LOL
Nightwalker1880:LOL Well, since you won't let me come over, what are you gonna do, go to bed? It's not that late.
Sunshine1987: Naw, I'll probably just hang out in my room and watch TV all night til I get tired, then I'll go to sleep.
Nightwalker1880: Watching TV sounds boring.
Sunshine1987: Naw, we have a satelite dish, we get 250 channels. There's always something on.
Nightwalker1880: Cool. I need to come watch TV at your house from now on. LOL
Sunshine1987: LOL
