Faith soon disappeared back down to the training room, practicing on the punching bag. She grumbled and punched it harder, causing it to swing back and knock her off gaurd, knocking her half way across the room. She shook her head, trying to gain some concentration. She stood up mumbling to herself.

Angel was glad Buffy liked the gift,he had given her a black leather jacket that had inside pockets where she could hide her stakes well,along with a gold cross."I can see that you liked it.Later,we'll go out for dinner then go patrolling afterwards,how does that sound?"
Angel had a huge smile on his face.

Andrew huffed as he schleped his bags to the mansion. He wasn't sure how much she had spent on him, but it seemed like he'd need to find a way to pay her back. Except for his lack of money. Maybe he could take her patrolling and then save her life at the last moment. He thought about how he coudl pull that off as he took his bags to the room he had claimed as his own, being sure to leave Dawn's stuff behind. He ended up changing into a black tank with a yellow star on it and some pinstripe slacks, and went downstairs.

willow_r_ In the house, Phoenix stamped up her letters and walked outside to put them in the mailbox, noticing that Faith's jeep was still all sorts of screwed up. "That dude's gonna get his a** handed to him two times," she said to no one but the birds. Phoenix headed back in, figuring that while no one was around, she would check out where Spike's room was supposed to be, and perhaps creepily spray some of his yummy cologne. When she got there and opened the door, you could have knocked her over with a feather. She realized she now knew what that phrase meant. That guy.. from the other night.. the a*****e. He was asleep in Spike's bed. "What the HEll are YOU doing here?", she screeched. Atticus heard a shrill scream which woke him with a start, and he jumped, falling off of the opposite side of the bed. "Ah! ********> he shouted when he hurt his stomach. "DO YOU KNOW HOW TO KNOCK?!" he shouted as he grasped his bandaged stomach and grabbed the side of the bed, using it as support to help himself up to his feet slowly.
He looked up at the girl that had screamed, and recognized her...to an extent. He knew he had seen her before, but he couldn't remember. "Have we met?" he asked as he pointed to her, an awkward look on his face..

Phoenix sucked her teeth at him and grimaced.
"Me? Who am I? I tell you this is MY town and you show up in my future boyfriend's bed?? IN MY HOUSE?". At this point she sounded like Jack Mcfarland, the gayer than gay character on Will and Grace, when he got pissed.
She then took into account how screwed up he looked, coupled with those huge baby blues, and that tiny bit of softness in her melted. How could one kick a gorgeous puppy? She drew in a breath, slowly, counted to 5, and asked solicitously,
"Are you ok?"

Willow licked her fingers after popping the last bit of buttery scone into her mouth. Amy had sounded sincere... but she had also sounded that way when she agreed to help Willow with the Warren body-switching deal... and it had been Amy doing it the whole time. No one really understand just how deeply that had affected Willow. It had been the beginning of her questioning her sexuality.
She stood, looking down at the number on the table, the pocketed it.
Picking up her little bag of goodies, she headed home.

"For one: it's not your town unless you've been here longer than me...and I have NEVER seen you around. And I've been here for a good while. SECONDLY: this bed has been used?! and Thirdly: It's a mansion! And I was invited to stay here...ALMOST against my will!"
Atticus had to stop and take a breather. He was always grumpy when he first woke up; not to mention ESPECIALLY when he woke up on the wrong side of the bed...and he had fallen off, so he wasn't in the greatest of moods. His body was aching all over, and his wound wasn't helping.
When she asked if he was okay, he realized he still didn't have a shirt on. He cussed out loud when he noticed that his scars were showing, and he grabbed a blanket and wrapped it around his upper body, turning to face the wall.
"I'm fine." he said. "It's just a scratch. Can you please leave?"

Buffy smiled at Angel, then ran upstairs to try on the jacket, and put on the necklace. On her way back down, she heard yelling coming from the common room, and made her way down there. It was coming from Spike's room, and Damn, she thought.
The new guy.
She hurried into Spike's room, which was bad enough, and noticed Phoenix in warrior mode and the new guy scantily clad.. all rumpled in Spike's sheets.
She raised an eyebrow, and asked, " 'Sup guys?"

Phoenix stared at him momentarily.
"Ok, then whatever, suffer. I don't care. Just get the hell out of my future man's bed and -"
Buffy walked in, and Phoenix prayed frantically that Buffy hadn't heard what she just said.

Lorne had found a room the night before, like Faith had suggested. It was plain, with just a bed, desk and dressor. He slept there for the night, claiming it for his own when he brought his suitcase in from his convertable and emptied out some of his things to make it look more homely.
He fell to sleep like a baby that night, and woke up late, considering how tired he had been. It was around one o'clock pm when he finally got out of bed and walked downstairs into into the kitchen.

Atticus stared at this b***h for a moment. Then he shook his head.
"Fine. I'll leave." he said and threw the sheets down and walked to the door. He hesitated for a moment, saying as he passed the two, "There's no reason for me to be here anyway."
He walked out of the room, passing the training room and heading upstairs into the main room, looking around to see if his bloody shirt was lying on a couch or something. It was still laying on the arm of the chair from the night before. It was still stained with blood, but he didn't care. He picked it up and slipped it on to cover his scars and wound. Then he slipped his long black jacket on over it.
That's when a green man came walking into the main room, humming to himself, not even seeing Atticus. Realizing that it was a demon because of the color and of the horns, Atticus freaked out and searched frantically for his weapons.
"WHOA! EASY BIG GUY!" Lorne shouted when he saw Atticus reach for a sword and draw it out, pointing the blade to Lorne. "I'm a friend!"
"You're a ******** demon...demons are friends." Atticus said as he brought the blade dangerously close to Lorne.
"Um...HELP?! SOMEONE HELP?!"

Willow was coming in the front door, when she saw Lorne, and ran forward to hug him, when the door to the hallway burst open and a dark-haired guy in a cloak-looking jacket came rushing out and attacked Lorne.
"A puntate immediamente," she said quickly, causing the attacker to freeze in his tracks.
Willow rushed forward and checked out Lorne for injuries, then turned to the stranger.
"Sing for Lorne, won't you?"

Buffy glanced at Phoenix and then ran up the stairs.
"Hey, " she shouted, "You left your knife on the-"
She stopped short when she opened the hallway door and bumped into the guy. Who didn't move an inch.
Then she saw Willow. And the dark roots. Oh, great.
"Again, I say, 'sup guys?"

Phoenix watched Buffy leave, and then headed over to the bed to strip the sheets. Like hell were than man's body stuffs going to remain on Spike's bed for any longer. Grabbing everything with much distaste, she brought it over to the laundry room, and washed everything.
While the things were in the washer, she went back to Spike's room, just to spray some of that cologne. The bottle was old. She had no clue what brand it was... but it seemed to be one of those you buy and then refill with the scent of your choice, and Whatever, she thought. Smells yummy.
Heading upstairs, she heard noises from the foyer, and ignored them in favor of food, and went to the kitchen. Time for a real meal, she thought, taking the steaks out of the fridge where she had left them to defrost the night before.
Damn, that's a lotta steak, she realized, looking at the 10 london broils.

Lorne took a relieved sigh when Willow showed up. "Oh...thank you Sweetkins. Thank you." He looked at the man who had attacked him. "What did I ever do to YOU?!"
Sing for him? What the Hell does she think this is? Battle of Karaoke?!
Atticus moved only his eyes to look at the blonde who he had met the night before.
"Um...a little help?" he asked. "...please? I'll just leave...I won't hurt any...demons in this place..."
"As well you shouldn't." Lorne sneered, getting a bit defensive. "And I prefer Lorne. Not demon."
