~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Cordelia had left minutes before, allowing Willow to get comfortable in her new room. Willow left her bag at the end of the bed and decided to go down to the kitchen to get something to drink.
As she made her way downstairs, she couldn't help but to think of Spike. He was back! Just as she was going to turn the corner, she heard Angel and Spike talking in the kitchen. Staying hidden, she wanted to know what was going on.
~~~*~~~
"Stay away from her, boy," Angel told his grand-childe.
"Like bloody hell I will!"
"You're acting as if she was yours."
"Red would have been mine if not for that bloody chip."
"You were really gonna turn her?"
"I wasn't just gonna turn her, you nit. She would have been my childe. My only childe."
Angel shook his head. "Just stay away from her."
"And if I don't?"
"This isn't a request. It's an order."
"You're not my sire."
"But I am your elder. And I was HER sire."
~~~*~~~
Willow had heard enough. Walking into the kitchen, she saw each one of them glaring at each other.
"Hello, Red," Spike stated still glaring at Angel.
"How did you know she was there?" he asked the younger vampire.
Willow couldn't help but to smile. "Hey Spike. Go ahead and follow his order."
That caused Spike to look at her. "I thought."
"You thought what?"
"I guess nothing," he said deflated. "I'll just be leaving."
Willow took a step towards Spike. "Don't go yet. There's more, just watch."
Spike started to smirk. "You're still full of fire, luv."
Willow turned to Angel, waiting to see what he would say.
"I'm glad you came to your senses, Willow."
"About what, exactly?" she asked.
"My orders for Spike. I'm only looking out for your best interests."
"No, you weren't."
"What? Yes, I was."
"Angel, I really appreciate you letting me stay here but the only thing you're doing is trying to use your power over Spike. I saw him practically every day for almost four years. He put his life on the line when he really didn't have to."
"You don't know him, Willow."
"Maybe you're right, but you don't know him either. You're too stuck on his past, on who he was. You can't see who he is. You go ahead and order him to stay away from me. I won't stay away from him!"
THE END
