Willow laid her head across Spike's chest, her finger drawing the alphabet on the smooth surface.

"You missed G" a sleepy voice said into her mind.

She looked up and smiled, "Did I?"

"Yep. Went straight from F to H. Why are you awake?"

"Couldn't sleep. Got too much yesterday I guess."

"That's what sleeping 24 hours does to you" he smiled, as he ran a hand over her face.

She caught his finger in her mouth. She began to suck as she spoke to his mind, "If certain people had let me sleep instead of distracting me with sins of the flesh, I might not have slept that long."

"If certain people weren't always so darn cute, certain other people wouldn't be so horny." he said, brushing his finger over her teeth.

"I'm cute?"

"Adorable. Better quit that or we'll be talking sins of the flesh again" he warned.

"I like sin. Nice short three letter word. Rolls of your tongue just so sensually...."

He groaned as she bit down. "Did I ever tell you how much I like this new power of yours? Nothing more exciting than hearing your thoughts while your mouth is full."

"You just like it cause I told you what you tasted like when I sucked...."

"Don't go there" he warned, his eyes glinting playfully. His hands spread her wet folds open as he plunged into her.

"Your cock" she finished, opening her mouth and moaning as he let his finger slide down to her hard nipple.

"We researching tonight?" he asked as he plunged into her again, more deeply.

"Yeah" she breathed out, whimpering.

"Cum for me, luv" he said softly, moving faster. She shattered around him, clutching him tightly. "That's my girl...."

**********

"You can't find anything?" Willow said, sighing.

"I'm sorry. I looked everywhere I could think of" Giles trailed off. "I'll keep trying."

"No. Don't bother. It isn't that big of a deal." Willow said lightly.

"Don't you want to know what powers you have?" Buffy asked.

"In some ways, but in others it is nice to be surprised. What if I found something out that I'd rather not know about? See, being in the dark can be a good thing.."

"You're dying to know so just admit it" Buffy said, teasing.

"Fine. I'll admit that I'm curious as to what I can now do. But, those demons said I'd find out as time passed. I can wait. Hell, I'm immortal now."

"Don't brag" Buffy said, rolling her eyes.

"Me? Brag?" Willow said blinking innocently.

"Me? Brag?" Buffy repeated in a whiny voice in her mind. Willow had to laugh.

"Fine. Fine. I'll quit talking about it."

"Good. Want some pizza?"

"Sure. I don't have to be home for another couple of hours..."

"How is Spike liking the new gifts from the demon realm?"

"So far so good. I haven't tried to read his mind when he wasn't aware of it, so things are cool."

"You have more willpower than I do."

"I know" Willow said laughing as they walked to the pizza parlor.

**********

Willow felt Spike move behind her. She shifted on the bed, his arm closing around her waist. He was sleeping. She felt him snuggle closer and smiled. He always did that when he slept. He liked to hold her close to him. She often wondered if he even realized he was doing it.

She let her mind reach out, touching his briefly. It was so tempting to see what he was dreaming. She had recently discovered that talent. They had been at Giles watching television and Xander had fallen asleep. She had let her mind wander, only to find herself watching his dream. It had been amazing in a way. She had never realized how much of a voyeur she was at heart. She hadn't told anyone of that particular ability, deciding it better to remain silent.

She felt Spike's lips on her neck as he continued to dream. His hard cock nestled against her backside. She moved slightly, bringing it closer. She felt him move, arching against her. She decided to visit his mind. He didn't have to know she had been there. She moved forward, seeing his dream.

He was making love to her. No surprise there. What surprised her was that it was daylight. He dreamed of loving her in the sun. She smiled softly, her love for him consuming her yet again. She moved from his mind, not wanting to disturb him. She put her hands on his, enjoying the comfort of his embrace.

She was so tempted to wake him. She needed him inside her. But, he was dreaming such a sweet dream. She hated to wake him. She moved up on the bed, feeling his cock move between her legs. She bit her lip as she tried to get the right angle. Suddenly, she felt him slip inside her. She closed her eyes enjoying the fullness.

She began to move back to meet him. He whimpered softly and began to move. She felt his arms tighten as he sped up. She knew he was still dreaming. She could feel it. She couldn't believe she had seduced him while he had been sleeping. She was so wanton. The thought of him inside her was too tantalizing an image though. She had to have him.

She felt herself peak, her cries coming out in soft breathless whimpers. She felt his seed fill her as his hands tightened around hers. She smiled softly as she hear him whisper I love you in his mind as he drifted in his sleep. She closed her eyes and tried to sleep.

**********

"You can look into people's dreams?" Giles said quietly.

Willow nodded. "Yep. If I chose to. I mean, it doesn't drag me in or anything. Just lets me peek. Just another little power they forgot to mention."

"Have you...." Spike started to ask. He held his tongue. He loved her. It didn't really matter if she had looked into his dreams.

"Once" she replied honestly, her eyes shining with love. "I didn't stay. Just was testing my ability...."

'It's ok" he said, kissing her.

"How'd you figure it out?" Buffy asked.

"Xander was dreaming. I got pulled in somehow. That's when I started to realize it."

"Wait! You looked into one of my dreams? That's...that's just weird." Xander said.

"Sorry. It wasn't intentional, trust me."

"Is ok. Just trying to get used to the new demon you." Xander said.

Willow had to laugh. "What is it with this bunch? I don't think any of us are completely normal...."

Spike thought to her mind, "Especially the moron. Abnormal best describes him."

She smacked his arm, causing him to begin tickling her. Giles rolled his eyes. "I'll look into it" he said as he went into his bedroom.

Buffy laughed, "I wonder if Willow would check Riley's dreams out for me..."

"Slayer" Spike warned.

Willow glanced up, "What did I miss?"

"Nothing" Buffy signed to her, an innocent expression on the blonde's face.

"I don't believe you, but I'll find out. I have my ways..." Willow said, stalking towards her friend. She lashed out, her fingers tickling Buffy.

"No....I won't give in" Buffy said, laughing and trying to push Willow away.

"She'll give in" Xander said to Spike.

"She always does" Spike replied.

**********

"Buffy! Watch out!" Willow screamed as her friend was thrown into the wall.

She moved quickly, grabbing a branch from the ground. She pierced the heart of one vampire trying to make it to the fallen slayer. She wished that Spike or Riley had come with them.

Things had been slow lately on the Hellmouth. She and Buffy had decided to go on patrol alone, having little doubt that things would be quiet. They had been wrong. Only thirty minutes into patrol, they had found themselves surrounded by seven vampires.

Buffy had pushed her out of the way and easily slain three of them. It had been too much, even for the slayer. Willow felt someone grab her neck and she found herself staring into yellow eyes.

The vampire's mouth moved but she couldn't hear his words. She didn't care enough about what he was saying to try to read his mind. She saw lift a sword and felt anger go through her. She knew she couldn't die, but he didn't. Besides, Buffy could die.

Put the sword down...put the sword down...put the sword down....she murmered in her mind, her eyes full of fear for her friend's life. She froze in surprise when the vampire turned towards her, the sword falling to the ground.

How? She saw him looking at her, his eyes confused. She glanced at Buffy and saw her friend standing slowly. She looked back at the vampire. A thought struck her mind.

Stake yourself....stake yourself...stake yourself....she said in her mind, her eyes looking at him. She watched in surprise as the vampire lifted a fallen stake and pierced his own heart.

"What the fuck just happened?" Buffy asked, leaning against a tombstone for support.

Willow looked at Buffy, not hearing her words. She shook her head slowly, trying to think what had happened. It wasn't possible. There was no way she had made that vampire kill himself. She felt hands on her shoulders and looked up into Buffy's concerned eyes.

"You ok?" Buffy asked first, her hands signing rapidly.

"Fine. Just confused." Willow said, her eyes settling on the pile of dust that covered the ground.

"Did he just stake himself?" Buffy said, her voice amazed.

"Yeah" Willow said softly. "I'm tired...."

Buffy went into friend mode, "We'll get you back home. You look tired. Poor Wills. Been through so much lately. I hope things calm down for you soon."

"Buffy..I uh" Willow didn't know what to say. She couldn't prove that she had been the reason for the vampire's death. Maybe she should just remain silent. No use in starting something if she wasn't sure it was even her.

"What?" Buffy asked, seeing the exhaustion in her friend.

"I'd like to go home. Spike may be back already" Willow said, knowing that she had to be positive before she mentioned it.

"Ok. We'll get you back to your demon lover" Buffy said, laughing. She was thrilled that Willow could now read her mind with her new powers. She still liked using sign, but it made things easier.

"Thanks" Willow said, rolling her eyes. She needed to talk to Spike about what had happened in the cemetary. Together, maybe they could figure it out.

**********

"You think you made him do it, luv?" Spike asked in his mind, his tone disbelieving.

"I don't know anymore. I mean, I was thinking it real hard then suddenly he did it. What else could it be?"

"Has it happened before?" he asked.

"Never. Afterwards, I felt weak. Sort of tired. But, I feel fine now. Do you think it is another one of my litlte power things?"

"Could be. Damn, Willow. I can't believe they saddled you with so much. Reading minds is bad enough. Controlling people can get dangerous."

Willow nodded sadly, "I know. But, they said I can only use the powers for good. That at least is a positive."

"Have you tried it since?" Spike asked.

Willow shook her head, "No. I didn't really want to believe that it was possible. I could always try to make Xander do something really stupid....."

Spike had to laugh, "That would be good. You're taking this rather well..."

What can I say? Since I lost my hearing, nothing surprises me anymore."

"Nothing?" he said, arching an eyebrow.

"Almost nothing" she ammended. She laughed as he stalked towards her, catching her lips with his.

**********

Fall...fall....fall....fall....Willow squealed as the man fell to the ground. She looked at the surprised faces of the others and smiled, "See? It is NOT my imagination."

"Do you think this is the final power? I mean, if they keep loading you up you can have your own comic book before long" Xander said.

"Maybe a cartoon" Buffy added, smiling at Willow.

"If you two don't shut up, I could always have you jump in a lake" Willow threatened.

Spike laughed, "Why not have them play in traffic?"

"Willow! You can only use them for good. Remember?" Buffy said, smiling.

"Killing the moron would be a good thing" Spike said, dodging a salt packet that Xander threw at him.

"Feeling the love" Xander said, sticking his tongue out at Spike and Willow.

Willow laughed, "So neither of you are spooked about all this?"

"Wills. Think about it. This is a lot cooler than reading our minds. As long as you don't use it on us, we're cool."

"Besides, think how easy it will be to patrol if you have all the zombies dancing like in Thriller. Buff can slay them babies while twisting and turning" Xander said.

"Why do we put up with him?" Willow asked Buffy.

"I've been asking you that question for months, luv" Spike said, biting her ear as he spoke to her mind.

"Think how dull it would be without him." Buffy said, laughing at the expression on Xander's face.

"True. To true. Fine, I'll choreograph a thriller number just for you, Xan." Willow said, smiling at him.

"Ah....I feel special. Well, lovely ladies and deadboy. I have to go pick up Anya. I'll be sure not to mention the new super dooper power. I think surprise will be a key factor here."

"Poor Anya" Buffy said, laughing.

"Poor Xander if he tried to pull a joke on her" Willow pointed out.

Buffy nodded, "Yep. Poor Xander. Well, guys. I'm off to meet Riley. I'll talk to you tomorrow, Will. Bye Fang."

"Good. Can we go home and fuck now?" Spike asked, his hand running over her stomach.

"Don't hear me saying no...." Willow whispered.

**********

Spike pushed into her, his mouth on hers. She met each thrust, her fingernails digging into his back. She bit his tongue, tasting his blood. He groaned as he felt her bite her own tongue, offering him a taste. He took it eagerly. sucking her tongue into his mouth.

He moved slowly, wanting this to last. It was now a year since their first time. An entire year. He still couldn't believe she loved him. Things had been great. She was still deaf, the powers still growing daily. She was able to use her mind to do so much. He was in awe of her half the time. Her abilities had benefited the slayer and the others several times.

Willow pulled her mouth free from Spike's. She moaned as he began to speed up. She was so happy. She missed her hearing, but had so many wonderful gifts that made up for it. Often, she still found herself wondering what he sounded like when they made love. That was her only regret from the past year. And that didn't take too much away from everything else. She had learned how to control her powers over the last few months. She still never used them on her friends. Well, she had played a joke or two on Xander, but he still couldn't prove it was her.

She loved Spike. She was amazed that he loved her too. They belonged together. It had been a bit of a rocky path, but it had all worked out. She was suppose to be by his side....in his bed. He had her heart just the same way she had his. She felt her orgasm hitting her when his thumb began to rub against her clit.

She tightened around him, screaming his name as she sunk her fingernails deep into his back. He bit into her neck, his own orgasm hitting him. He spilled his seed into her, not wanting to move.

She looked at him, a sleepy smile on her face, "Love you Spike." She laid against him, her arms going around him.

"Love you Red" he whispered to her mind. Taking her in his arms, he played with her hair until she fell asleep. This was the life. Heaven on earth...in her arms.
