Part 1
 

"This is so not my fault!"
"Well, who the bloody hell's fault is it, Red?"  The
voices carried through Giles's door.
"Oh good lord!" Giles sighed.
"Tell me about it." Buffy said as she stood to
intercept the bickering duo outside the door.
"It's your fault 'Mr. Bad Ass Macho Vampire'!" Willow
screamed. "Everything was going fine until you decided
to try and scare the shit out of those guys."
"Well, if you wouldn't have thrown yourself at them,
the blokes wouldn't have gotten in the way to begin
with!"
Buffy reached the door and took a deep breath.
"Somebody needs to lock those two in a room until they
figure out they're in love." She said before opening
the door.
"Who the hell do you think you are saying something
like that?" Willow was literally the color of her hair
with anger. "I did NOT throw myself at anyone! You
just turned all psycho and flashed fangs!"
Spike opened his mouth to respond when Buffy stood
between the two.
"Hello!" Buffy yelled. "Shut up! Both of you!" The
vampire and the witch looked at the slayer like she
had a third eye. Just then, Buffy noticed the two were
covered in a chocolaty substance.  "What the hell
happened?" she asked trying to suppress a giggle.
"Did you two take a bath in chocolate shake filled
tub?" Xander asked as he noticed the appearance of his
best friend and the vampire.
"Erm, why don't you all come inside?" Giles said
carefully observing the two chocolate covered
Scoobies.  Everyone walked inside. "Wait!" He said.
"Buffy , run to the hall closet and get some towels."
The slayer did as she was told. When she returned,
Xander was unsuccessfully trying to cover up his
laughter.
"Oh sod off, whelp!" Spike said to the brunette as he
wiped the sticky cold liquid from his much-loved
duster.
"Willow, please shed some light on this." Giles
pleaded.
"Yeah, I thought this was supposed to be a quick run
to pick up burgers." Xander added.
"It would've been if the Fangless Wonder over there
hadn't scared those guys that were being nice to me by
helping me carry the damned bags to the car since HE
was too cool to do it!"
Spike glared at the redhead.
"And I take it when Mr. No Pulse here decided to show
his fangs and get a gooey chocolate shake hurled at
you." Buffy said.
"Okay, shower." Giles said as he pointed toward the
stairs. "Both of you." The two looked at Giles
wide-eyed.  "Strip to your under garments and get in
the shower. NOW!" They rushed upstairs.
"You pissed him off." Spike said. "Way to go, Witch."
"Oh, bite me."
"If I could, you'd enjoy it."
"In your dreams."
Giles, Buffy and Xander watched Willow and Spike head
up the stairs.
"If that doesn't get those two together, nothing
will."
"G-man, I'm impressed."
"Don't be, Xander." Giles replied. "I'm just sick of
the bickering. So, why don't we call it a night?"
"Cool, I need to pick up Anya from the Magic Stop
anyway."
"Fine with me." Buffy added. "I could do some
training. You game?"
"Let's get a move on, then." Giles replied. The three
headed out the door hoping that the couple upstairs
would stop being so stubborn.

"Don't look!"  Willow said as she blushed furiously.
"It's nothing I haven't seen before, little girl."
Spike drawled, trying to will his body's reaction to
the redhead away.
"Fine. Whatever." Willow replied, slightly hurt. {But
why would someone like him find me attractive.} She
decided she wasn't going to let him make her feel bad
about herself. {What the hell? He's not attracted to
me? He will be}
 

Part 2
 

 Willow slowly stripped off her chocolate shake covered sweater that
was no longer fuzzy. Spike watched from his peripheral vision and suppressed
a groan that almost escaped his lips. She was beautiful. The redhead noticed
the vampire's stiff posture and smiled inwardly. {This is a game you will
not win, Spikey}. She bent forward and slowly pulled down her jeans,
revealing a matching teal bra and panties.  This time Spike could not
control his body's reaction.
 "What's the matter blondie? Ya scared of little ole me?" Willow
teased as she stood and stepped into the shower. She then turned on the
water and let it cascade down her body, washing away the sticky chocolate
substance.
 "Bollocks!" The vampire replied. "Why would I be scared of you?" He
then shed his duster and immediately removed his t-shirt. Willow tried to
watch without letting him know she was watching.  Spike toed off his boots
and removed his jeans to reveal black and gray boxers.  He then stepped into
the shower and grabbed Willow by the waist. The redhead gasped.
 "Dammit, Spike!" She screamed. "Your hands are all cold and icky!"
 "That's why I'm trying to swap places with you, Luv." He replied
with a whisper to her ear.
 Willow traded places with the object of her lust and began to gently
scrub herself.  She opened her eyes to see Spike standing in the path of the
water with it running all over his toned features. {Do they really make
chests that perfect? Calm down, Willow. He's just a vampire. Shampoo!! I'll
shampoo my hair. Then, my eyes HAVE to be closed!} Willow began shampooing
her hair. Spike opened his eyes and stepped closer to the petite red head.
 "Time to switch again, Pet." He whispered.
 Willow opened her eyes and looked at the vampire. She had lost all
of the confidence she attained 2 minutes ago.  Spike took her by the waist
once again, and helped her get into the path of running water. Spike watched
as she rinsed her hair and body. His eyes traveled from her deep red locks
to her teal colored toenails.
 Feeling refreshed, and a bit more confident, Willow stepped out of
the shower. She grabbed a towel as Spike watched. Without looking at what he
was doing, the vampire switched off the water. He stood there with water
dripping from his perfect body. Willow grabbed another towel and tried to
steal one last glance at the bleach blonde as she threw him the towel. She
turned on her heel and walked out of the bathroom.  Spike was in shock. She
completely resisted him and he was at a loss of what to do next. He stepped
out of the shower, still holding the towel and went after his Red.
 When he finally reached Willow, she was about to go down the stairs
to see if she could borrow some of Giles clothes. Spike grabbed her arm and
turned her to face him.
 "Going somewhere, Luv?" He asked with his trademark smirk.
 "Why should it matter to you?" she replied as she started to get
goose bumps. She couldn't figure out if it was from the air conditioning or
the vampire that held her.
 "Because it does." He said simply. Blue eyes locked on green as the
two stood in silence.
 "Willow, I..." Before he could say anything else, the redhead was on
her tiptoes with her lips firmly planted on his. Spike gasped. Willow took
the opportunity to access the vampire's mouth with her tongue.
 Spike deepened the kiss even more as he lifted the witch and headed
to the spare bedroom.  He laid Willow on the bed and looked her up and down.
The look in his eyes was not only lust, but also love. Willow blinked to
make sure she was seeing this correctly.
 "We need to talk, don't we?" She asked as Spike lay down beside her.
 "No, Red, we don't." Spike replied. "Just nod if you love me as much
as I love you."
 Willow nodded her head several times before Spike arched his scarred
eyebrow and smirked. He leaned down to press his lips to hers.  Willow knew
that this was what she wanted. She silently thanked the guys at the burger
place for being nice, as she wrapped her arms around the vampire that she'd
always wanted, but would never admit to anyone. Spike sighed as his witch
wrapped her arms around him.
 Who knew that a chocolate shake could have these kinds of
consequences?
