My bike came to a hault. I was out of gas. Great. I jumped off the bike and hung my helmet on
the handlebars. I made sure the bike could stand upright on its own then sat down on the floor
leaning my head against it. I tapped my fingers against my leg wondering what to do now.
I took a swig of water and tried to plan what to do next.
A black DeSoto car with the windows blacked out drove past me. The car was blasting out music
from what i could tell it was The Ramones. The car stopped and drove backwards. I pulled a
small blade from my left pocket and kept it hidden. The car parked next my bike the window
rolled down and i heard a familar british accent shout out. "Need a lift" i lifted myself up slowly
from behind me bike only to see Spike with a smug look on his face.
"You do realise the sun is out right?" i said sarcastically "Shouldn't you be in a sewer somewhere"
Spike did his usual sexy smirk and kicked the car door open. The sunlight hit his foot.
"Blood hell!" he roared. I got into the car so Spike wouldn't connect with anymore sunlight.
He pulled a flask from his glove compartment and took a swig. I guessed he'd be drinking blood.
When he was done he offered the flask to me.
I cocked a eyebrow, "Whiskey" he said. I took the flask and took a large sip from it, it tasted good.
"What about my bike" i asked as he was about to drive off
"Sod it, i'll steal you a new one" i grinned at him, Spike put his foot down on the acelerator and we
set off onto the highway.
"So where are you going?" i asked, his car stank of booze, not that i minded i hadn't had a drink
or a good time in ages. When your on the road you don't have alot of cash so you gotta make do.
"No idea, probley the highway to hell" i laughed, i can see why B liked them both. Spike and Angel.
Two vampires with souls but both so different to each other. Spike reached out to the glove
compartment again and pulled out a CD he popped it into the CD player and The Ramones started
playing. Spike nodded his head vigerously.
"You like The Ramones?" i said sounding a little to excited by it
"Favourite band, after the sex pistols of course" Spike smacked his hands of the steering wheel
and started to sing. "Ba bam ba bam ba bam ba bam, i wanna be sedated"
I was surpized to find he was actually a good singer. Five minutes, i'd only been in the car with him
for five minutes and i was already having a good time.I thought about the first time i'd met Spike
it was when i was masquerading as Buffy.
"You know why I really hate you, Summers?"
"Cause I'm a stuck-up tight-ass with no sense of fun?"
"Well . . . Yeah, that covers a lot of it."
"Cause I could do anything I want, and instead I choose to pout and whine and feel
the burden of Slayerness? I mean, I could be rich. I could be famous. I could have anything.
Anyone. Even you, Spike. I could ride you at a gallop until your legs buckled and your eyes rolled up.
I've got muscles you've never even dreamed of. I could squeeze you until you pop
like warm champagne and you'd beg me to hurt you just a little bit more"
I meant to laugh in my head but i did it out loud. He turned and looked at me.
"What you laughing at?" he asked
"Oh nothing" i said quickly
We drove past a sign reading route 66. I saw bright lights in the distance. The sun had set now,
"You fancy going for a drink?"
"Thought you'd never ask pet" Spike span the car round and drove towards the bar.
It was a big wodden building with two large glass windows it looked busy in there.
Spike opened the bar door, and i stepped in. The bar was mainly full of truckers, big ugly men
stared at me, i didn't mind i knew i looked good and staring don't do no harm.
Spike saw the men and decided to tease them. He winked at me then threw his arm around my
shoulder. "Two shots love" Spike asked the bartender. She was kinda pretty in werid way.
She had long blonde curls drooping off her shoulders. And she was wearing a low cut top
that showed alot of clevage im guessing she wants alot of tips.
"Here you go hunnie" she said handing Spike the drinks. Spike brushed his hand across hers
and gave her a cheeky smile. She gazed at him as we walked to our table.
I scoffed as we sat down.
"What? Spike laughed
"Do you flirt with every girl" i crossed my arms pretending to look hurt
He leaned across the table and wispeared in my ear "Only when i want to get free drinks"
Spike downed his glass then poured himself another one. The jukebox started playing a song.
It was one that i liked. I got up and walked to the dancefloor. Spike watched me.
I swung my hips as i walked onto the floor. The men looked at me. I felt the rhythm take over my body
i ran a hand through my hair moved my body to the music. I felt a smile spread across my face.
Other people were on the dancefloor now, i opened my eyes to see guys around me not
that i'd expect anything different. Spike downed another shot and carried on watching. One of the guys
tried to put his hand around me i shove him back, i don't like contact, that is unless i want it
and i get to be on top. I smirk to myself. And carry on swaying to the music and throwing my hands
in the air. I skip back to Spike, and grab him by the neck of his t-shirt and haul him to the dancefloor.
I wrapped a hand around his neck, and swing my hips to the music he just glances down at me.
After a minute he takes my hand and spins me around him. And starts dancing too.
He moves abit stiff but ill soon sort that out. I bite my finger and wink at him. Spike grins, and wraps
a hand around my waist. Im having a blast when until some guy kicks the jukebox in.
I pull myself away from Spike and glare at the guy who did it. If looks could kill. He winks at me.
I storm up to him and grab him by the throat. "What did you do that for"
"Oh i got my reasons girlie" his face changes, he's a vampire. He opens his mouth i pretend to be
helpless for a minute. Then chuck him to the other side of the room. "Everybody out!" i scream.
Spike stands back to back with me. As the vampire calls in his backup.
"Nobody, makes a fool outta Lyle Gorch not nobody" he yells with a texan twang to his voice
"Ah one of the Gorch brothers, w'ell take these pounces out easy, i was hoping there
would be a brawl tonight, need to loosen up abit" Spike says with such glee in his voice.
I run at Lyle and my fist hits his face. He's taken by suprize not to smart he should of known better
than to mess with a slayer. Spike jumps in the air knocking two vampires sideways.
Lyle grabs me. I wriggle a bit and slam my head into his. I dig my nails into his face, and introuduce
it to the wall. Lyle yells out in pain. I straddle him and raise my stake in the air.
I plunge it down into his heart and he turns to dust. I take out some of the other vampires then sit down
and watch Spike finish off the rest. A vampire jumps on his back, Spike throws himself into a wall
then looks at me. I toss him my stake he catches it and shoves it in the vamps heart.
When the bar is nothing more than dust he comes back and sits with me spinning the stake in his hands.
"Bloody lot of fun that was right?" his sexy smile creeps onto his face. His face leans in towards me.
I lean in too then smack his cheek lightly. "I don't give it up that easy, i like a bit of a chase first"
I jump from the stool and he follows. He wraps his arm around me.
We both walk out the bar laughing.
