Summary: *Sequel to Lover's Walk*...Future...Year 2034....Eleven years after Buffy's death, Spike is living in LA helping Angel fight the good fight. How will he react when he comes face to face with ghost's from his past.
A/N...(This is 'NOT' a Buffy/Spike fic..you have been warned!) Also, this 'is' a sequel, so the story will make no sense what so ever if you don't read "Lover's Walk" first.
Randall knocked softly on his Master's door, fearing for his unlife as he heard him say 'enter'. Opening the door, he walked forward, unsure of his approach as he took in the site of his Master sitting in a large leather chair behind his over sized desk. The room was dark and smelled of cigars and Randall knew there was death waiting for him.
"Please tell me you have good news?" Trull asked as his minion came forward.
Randall swallowed the lump in his throat as he stopped infront of the desk. "No..sir. We've looked everywhere. No sign of the search party or Miss Ravyn."
Trull stood quickly and leered at Randall. "How hard can it be to find her?" he yelled. "She hasn't said a word or made a move on her own in twenty-five years! She couldn't have gotten that far away!"
Randall looked down, knowing it was only a matter of minutes before his dusty end would come. "I'm sorry Master. I will look again. I will not stop until we have her." he said, almost begging for Trull to spare his life.
Trull stood and watched his favorite minion. "Yes, I know you will. I want that bitch back here...now! You will find her and get my gold medallion she stole! I want her back by the end of the week! Now leave and don't come back without her!"
Randall was surprised Trull had spared him and left quickly before he changed his mind. He shut the door to Trull's office quickly as he heard a glass shatter against the wall.
Trull stood looking at the broken glass and the liquid it contain lay on the floor. *Bitch is going to pay for this* he said bitterly to himself. *painfully*
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Dawn knocked softly on Ravyn's door and smiled as she opened it.
"Hey Dawn" Ravyn said as she stepped back from the door so Dawn could enter.
"Hey...you busy?" she asked as she walked inside.
Ravyn giggled lightly. "Nope...nothing here to busy myself with."
Dawn smiled brightly at her. "Well, it's Friday night and we all have a ritual we get together and perform. Interested?"
Ravyn leaned her head sideways and grinned. "Depends on what this 'ritual' is" she said, more than interested.
Dawn laughed. "Well, there's this club down town. A demon bar..Karaoke Bar to be exact. We all hang out there and unwind. Thought maybe you'd like to join us."
Ravyn smiled big. "Karaoke?"
"Yep" Dawn said grinning at her. "Great for a few laughs...especially if we get enough alcohol in Angel to get him on stage."
"Angel sings?"
Dawn burst out laughing hard. "Yeah, he sings all right" she said through her laughter. "You've got to come. Get out of here for a while. It'll be fun I promise."
Ravyn smiled as she thought about it. She hadn't had 'fun' in so long, she wasn't sure she knew what it was anymore. "Yeah, think I would. What should I wear?"
"Oh, anything really. Maybe that new dress you bought. It's casual and flirty" Dawn said wiggling her eyebrows at her.
Ravyn laughed at her. "Not sure flirty is something I'm good at anymore, but we'll give it a try." she said as Dawn headed for the door.
"Well, we leave in about an hour. See ya downstairs." Dawn said as she left the room, pulling the door shut behind her.
Ravyn looked at the door for a minute before smiling big. *Fun* she thought as she walked to the closet. *I might be able to handle that* she said to herself as she pulled the dress from the closet and walked to the bathroom. Grabbing the bag with her newly purchased fragrances, Ravyn turned on the shower and started to get ready for a night out on the town.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"So, is she going to go?" Jesse asked as Dawn came back down the steps.
"Yes, she's going." Dawn said smiling. "I'm going home to change. Be back shortly."
"See ya soon." Jesse said as he watched her leave.
"You know what's going to be more entertaining than Angel singing tonight?" Blake asked Jesse quietly.
"What's that?" Jesse asked him as they both turned and headed upstairs.
"Watching Angel and Spike fight over the fair Ravyn." Blake said laughing.
"So, you've noticed that to then?"
"How could you not. The looks Angel gives her are so obvious, and I know for a fact that Spike noticed it."
Jesse grinned big. "You know...this might just turn out to be more interesting than usual after all." he said as they got to there rooms.
Laughing, they entered their rooms on opposite sides of the hall each shutting their door's, grinning at what they knew was going to be 'fun'.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Angel walked into the lobby just as Spike walked through the front door.
"Well, if it isn't the singing Barry impersonator." Spike said grinning as he looked at Angel.
"Shut up Spike."
"Ah, come on peaches, you know you love Barry. Why else would you only sing his songs?"
"Because he sings mellow songs...not that junk you and the other's always belt out." Angel told him as they stopped in front of the sofa.
"Okay you two. No bickering, we haven't even made it there yet." Dawn said as she walked in the door.
Spike looked over at her and smiled. "Hey nib...new outfit?"
"Yep" she said grinning. "You like?"
"Yeah" Spike said. "Looks real....daring." he added, looking at the very short blue mini skirt she was wearing. "Think maybe you could have found something a little longer?"
Dawn laughed a little. "It's suppose to be this short."
Jesse and Blake walked down the steps and joined the others as Rob came out of his office.
"Well, we ready?" Rob asked as everyone gathered around.
"Almost, Ravyn's going." Dawn said looking up the stairs wondering why she wasn't down yet.
"She is?" Angel asked, a little smile on his face.
"Yeah, let me go see what's keeping her." Dawn said as she turned to the stairs. As she reached the bottom step, Ravyn walked around the corner and Dawn's eyes went wide. "Wow...you look great." she told her as Ravyn started down the steps.
"Thanks Dawn."
The guy's standing in the lobby all stopped talking and stared at Ravyn as she walked down the steps. She was wearing a white dress that fell just above the knee with a small pink floral design on it. It had thin straps and was cut low in the front. The skirt was full while the bodice clung to her tightly. Her hair was hanging down her back and shining from the lights overhead.
"Is something wrong?" Ravyn asked almost shyly as she reached the bottom of the steps and looked at all the guy's.
Spike smiled at her. "No, nothing's wrong." he said as he walked over to her. "You look beautiful." he told her quietly.
Ravyn smiled while looking up at him briefly. "Thanks" she said, looking down, not able to keep eye contact with him. "You don't look so bad yourself." she told him as she took in his charcoal gray pants and tight white shirt. "I see you finally found the joy's of 'color'...kinda."
Spike laughed a little at her. "Yeah, well...had to do something with all those clothes you bought me. Just kinda got use to it after a while."
Spike and Ravyn were both drawn from their private conversation as Angel cleared his throat.
"So, we're ready then?" Angel asked, walking over towards the door.
"Yeah, let's go." Spike said as everyone headed for the door and what looked to be the start of a very interesting night.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The gang entered Caritas and moved along the crowd to 'their' table. There was a large, green and yellow slimy creature, no one exactly knew what it was, singing.. "The Rose" as they were all seated.
"Well, if it isn't my biggest group of misfits." Lorne said as he walked over to the group. "How are all you wonderful people doing tonight?"
"We're just fine Lorne..how are you." Dawn asked him with a smile.
"Well, I'm just wonderful sweetie." Lorne answered her before looking at the other's, stopping as he saw Ravyn. "Well, what do we have here?" he asked as he moved around the table where she was sitting in-between Angel and Spike.
"Lorne...this is Ravyn Sinclaire." Angel said, introducing the two.
Lorne smiled as he stopped in front of her. "It is a pleasure to meet you Miss Sinclaire." he said, taking her hand and giving it a small kiss.
Ravyn smiled up at the green demon, his bright white and purple suit making him the most flamboyant creature she thought she had ever saw. "It's nice to meet you to." she said.
Lorne stood up quickly and smiled weakly at her when she spoke. "Do you sing?" he asked her.
Ravyn giggled. "No..afraid not."
"Well, this is a Karaoke bar...care to give it a try?"
Ravyn continued to smile at him. "No thanks....I think I'll just listen, can't hurt anyone by doing that."
Spike and Angel both looked at each other as they saw Lorne studying Ravyn. They knew by the look on his face he was picking something up in her voice, thus his asking her to sing for him.
"Well, if you don't sing...can you dance?" Lorne asked, breaking from his stare and smiling at her.
"Yes, that I can do...well, I use to..it's been a while."
"Well, great!...shall we?" he asked her.
Ravyn smiled at him. "I'd love to." she said as she stood.
The gang watched as Lorne led Ravyn out to the dance floor and watched them talk briefly before Lorne motioned for the music to change. As the song started..they all sat, mesmerized as Lorne pulled Ravyn close to him...and they started to Tango.
Spike smiled as he watched here. She was smiling and laughing. She was more beautiful than he had ever remembered and he was getting lost in her again. Just watching her made him remember every detail of his time with her. The way she made him feel. The way she laughed, the way she smelled, the way.......she loved him. Everything about her that made her so unforgettable.
"You've got that look." Dawn said quietly as she leaned over to Spike.
"What's that?" he asked her, tearing his eyes off of Ravyn.
"That....'I think I love you' look." she said smiling.
Spike smiled at her and leaned his arms on the table. "Just thinkin is all."
"And let me guess about who." Dawn said giggling.
Spike looked back over at Ravyn. "I still can't believe she's here. I mean, I see her, and it's like a dream."
"A good dream?"
"Yeah, a good dream."
"So, you think you two will get back together? Or...is that something you even want?" she asked him, serious now.
Spike smiled at her and took her hand. "Dance with me?" he asked as he stood up.
Dawn stood and let him guide her to the dance floor. "You're avoiding my question." she said as they stepped up on the dance floor.
"Am I?" Spike said grinning.
"Spike?"
Spike wrapped his arms around her and laughed. "Nibblet...when I know what's going on....I assure you, you'll be the first to know."
"Promise?"
"Yes..I promise"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Randall watched from the bar as Ravyn danced with the green demon. He wondered what god had been looking down on him that night. Walking into the bar she was in had to be some kind of a sign.
He watched, hiding in the shadows so she wouldn't spot him. He wondered how Trull would feel knowing his favorite toy was having the time of her life. She was smiling and laughing and he almost hated taking it away from her.
He had witnessed the cruelty Trull had bestowed on her. Hell, he even helped...when he was made. There wasn't a vampire back at the complex that hadn't helped Trull exact his revenge on her.
Trull's favorite form of torture.....letting her know how big a tramp he thought she was and proving it by letting his men 'have a go' at her. He himself had had her. And not that he would admit it, but he enjoyed every second of it. She was soft and he loved the way she felt under him. But, he wasn't suppose to enjoy it, especially when he was being watched by everyone including Trull.
Throwing back the rest of his drink, he motioned for another and sat back to watch. Following her out and finding out where she was staying was his goal now.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Lorne smiled and kissed Ravyn's hand as their dance ended. "That was wonderful my dear. I haven't danced like that in a very long time."
"Me either." Ravyn said as they stood on the dance floor. "It's nice to know I didn't forget everything I ever learned."
Dawn looked over at Spike after glancing at Ravyn. "So...you gonna ask her to dance?" she asked him smiling.
Spike grinned at her. "You don't know when to quit do you?"
"Nope...gotta help you pitiful vamps out, seeing how you're all to helpless to do it yourselves."
Spike smiled and looked over at Ravyn. She was standing there talking to Lorne. Taking a deep breath, he let it out slowly before walking over to her.
"Hey...dance?" Spike asked as he stopped in front of Ravyn.
Ravyn smiled at him. He looked nervous and she thought it actually looked cute on him. She had never seen him look nervous...well not like this. "Yeah...love to."
Lorne smiled as he walked over to Dawn. "Those two kids are in for alot of heartache before they realize what they've got." he told her quietly.
Dawn looked up worried at his statement. "What do you mean?"
"Just the perils of love sweetie. You never know what you have until it's gone."
Dawn glanced over at Spike and Ravyn before looking back at Lorne. "I think he already knows that."
Lorne never said anything, just watched the two of them. He got alot out of Ravyn's voice, she was in alot of pain, more than she should be. Giving the couple a sympathetic smile he turned his attention back to Dawn.
~*~*~
Spike and Ravyn just stared at each other for a minute before stepping closer. Spike wrapped his arms around Ravyn's waist and closed his eyes briefly as the feeling of her arms going around his neck washed over him. He moved closer to her and was relieved when she hung on tighter. He had missed this. The way she felt. It was like coming home.
Ravyn had her eyes closed as her and Spike swayed softly to the music. She had to keep her tears from falling as she was once again reminded of all the things she had missed out on. She wrapped her arms around Spike's neck, hugging him close to her. He still smelled of cigarettes and leather and she had missed it. The way his arms felt around her. The way he made her cold dead heart flutter...it was all like a dream. One she had had for more years than she cared to remember.
~*~*~*
Angel stood from the table and stretched his legs. "Anyone want a drink?" he asked, looking at the other's.
"Naw man..I'm fine." Blake said as he watched him.
Angel watched as everyone else shook their heads no before he turned and headed for the bar. Once there, he sat on the stool and ordered his drink, keeping his back to the rest of the group.
"Here ya go Angel" Chad said as he handed him his drink.
"Thanks" Angel said, taking the drink, swallowing it quickly.
"Who's the hottie with Spike?" Chad asked as he poured Angel another drink.
"Ravyn" Angel told him, trying not to look back.
"Yeah, where'd he find her at?"
"I think she found him. At least that's the way I heard it."
Chad shook his head. "Some guy's have all the luck."
"Yeah, Spike's the luckiest bastard I know" Angel said quietly to himself.
~*~*~*~*~
Randall sat at the end of the bar, not believing what he just heard. *Did they just say Spike?* he thought to himself as he looked out to the dance floor at Ravyn and the man she was dancing with. *Now Trull was going to love that piece of information* he though as he remembered how often his Master had used that name. He had thrown that name up to Ravyn as much as he could. *Wonder how he's going to react when he finds out she escaped from him, only to run right back to the one man he tried to keep her from.*
~*~*~*~
Lorne walked over to the bar where Angel was sitting, his head hung down. "What's with the long face?" he asked as he took a seat beside him.
"Nothing" Angel told him as he looked up.
"Doesn't look like nothing to me. Come on Angel....I know you, what's wrong?"
Angel sighed and turned in his seat. "It's nothing ...really" he said before glancing out on the dance floor.
Lorne looked to see what Angel had looked at and smiled when he saw. "Well, well...are my eyes deceiving me or have you went and falling for that lovely lady there?"
"NO" Angel said loudly and unconvinceably.
Lorne smiled and gave his long time friend a pat on the back. "Nothing wrong with that friend."
"Yes it is" Angel told him. "She belongs to Spike."
"Belongs?" Lorne asked, not sure of what he meant.
"They're mated."
"Ahhhh...I see."
"Well, they were mated 'before' him and Buffy. Does that even make it still
'legitimate'?"
"Well, haven't a clue, not up on my vampire lure. You'd be the best judge of that."
"Well, she's still here and so is he. As far as vampire claims go...they're still mated." Angel said as he finished up his drink.
Lorne gave Angel a long look. "Have you told her?"
"Told her what?" Angel asked him.
"That you like her you ninny"
Angel looked wide eyed at him "Are you crazy?"
Lorne laughed. "No..not at all. You can't ever tell what's in a person's heart."
"Well, Spike's in hers. I can see it every time she looks at him." Angel said giving Spike and Ravyn another look. "The same way she's in his."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Spike leaned his head down further as Ravyn laid her head on his shoulder. He closed his eyes as the familiar scent he always associated with her came back to him. Burying his face in her shoulder he inhaled deeply, letting the sweet smell of wildflowers overflow his senses.
"What are you doing?" Ravyn asked he softly when she felt him rub his face along her neck.
"Smelling you." Spike told her grinning.
Ravyn chuckled slightly. "And you're smelling me..why exactly."
Spike pulled his head up and looked at her. "You smell like flowers again. You didn't the other day...only soap then. Now, you smell the way I remember you always smelling." he told her quietly.
Ravyn smiled big at him. "It's called shampoo. Does wonder's for the hair."
"Yeah, well.....I like what it does for you." Spike said grinning back at her. "I missed it.....I missed you." he added, softly, pushing her hair off her shoulder.
Ravyn looked down briefly before looking back up at him. "I missed you to Spike."
Spike and Ravyn both stood looking at one another, both lost in each other's eyes. Neither one realizing the music had stopped until Dawn walked over to them.
"Um guy's...there's no music." she said smiling at them.
Ravyn turned to look at her and smiled before removing her arms from around Spike's neck. She looked around the room before glancing back at Spike. He was giving her that 'look'. The one he used to get when he looked at her, the one that made her want to grab him and throw him on the nearest flat surface and show him how much she loved him. Smiling at him she turned and walked back to the table and left him and Dawn standing alone.
"Come on Mr. Obvious." Dawn said grabbing his hand smiling as she led him off the dance floor.
"What's that suppose to mean?" he asked her grinning.
"Oh nothing....you may want to be a little more subtle with the looks though, either that or just grab her, kiss her and live happily ever after already." she said as they approached the table.
"You know...just because you're a fourty-seven years old in a thirty year olds body doesn't mean I can't take you over my knee." Spike said as they stopped infront of the table.
Dawn laughed as she looked at him. "I'd like to see you try."
Spike chuckled at her before taking his seat. He looked over at Ravyn who was talking to Blake and Jesse and he knew she was having a good time. The sparkle was back in her eyes. He didn't know how he was going to do it, but he knew he wanted it to stay there. Seeing her in a 'dead state' of living was enough to make him want to keep her happy for a very long time and he'd do everything he could to see that she stayed that way.
"Well, let's get this party started." Lorne said loudly into the microphone as he stood on the stage. "I know you all love him, and he's back again tonight for your listening pleasure, now help me by giving him a big round of applause and hopefully he'll grace us with one of his outstanding renditions of his favorite artist.......my friend and yours.....Angel!"
Angel turned in his bar stool when he heard Lorne say his name. His face went pale white as applause erupted from the crowd.
"Looks like they want you man." Chad said smiling as he watched a sickening green and white color cover Angel's face.
"I don't think so." Angel said looking as he watched the crowd turn and face him, clapping loudly. He looked up at Lorne who was grinning at him before looking over at the table. Everyone was grinning like idiots, knowing they were about to get another round of 'watch Angel humiliate himself'...everyone except Ravyn. Angel looked at her as she sat there smiling at him. She wasn't expecting anything from him, not like the others....but still the look on her face made him wish he 'could' sing.
Looking around, Angel sighed heavily before standing up and making his way to the stage.
"I'm so going to kill you" Angel said lowly as he passed Spike, knowing he had put Lorne up to this.
Spike chuckled at him as he walked by. "Don't worry poof, we'll keep the laughter down to a low roar this time."
Angel walked up on the stage, hands clammy as he took the microphone from Lorne. "So, how much they pay you?" he asked, covering the microphone as he did.
Lorne smiled big at him. "What...you know we all love you Angel cakes."
"Yeah,...how much?"
Lorne grinned and chuckled before looking out at Spike and the other's. "Sixty bucks...couldn't pass that up now could I?"
"Oh no..sixty dollars is well worth my humiliation." Angel said disgusted that his friend had sold him out for money.
"Don't worry, I've picked the perfect song for you." Lorne said as he loaded up the machine and flipped on the monitor for Angel. "Just sing it like you mean it. I'm sure it'll make the perfect impression."
Angel sighed heavily as he looked down at the monitor and the song Lorne had picked for him. *Great* he thought to himself before rolling his eyes slightly.
Lifting the microphone he looked out at his 'friends' and gave Ravyn a little smile as she sat there looking at him, smiling brightly.
As the music started, Angel readied himself for the one thing he never wanted anyone to know......
'You know I can't smile without you'
'I can't smile without you'
The gang started giggling lightly as Angel's 'very bad' rendition of the song started. Ravyn looked at everyone, smiles on their faces and watched as a few snicker's were being cast at Angel. She looked up at Angel and smiled at him as he continued and listened to the words of the song.
'I can't laugh and I can't sing'
'I'm finding it hard to do anything'
'you see I feel sad when you're sad'
Spike watched as Angel sang his song, the smile that was on his face moments ago, now gone as he realized Angel had not taken his eyes off Ravyn. He glanced over at her and saw her watching Angel, a smile on her face. The lyrics to the song reaching Spike's brain made him realize....that Angel was singing to her.
'I feel glad when you're glad'
'if you only knew what I'm going through'
'I just can't smile without you'
As Angel finished the song, he smiled weakly at the club occupants and exited the stage quickly, one thing on his mind. Find Lorne and ring his green neck!
Angel made his way to the bar where Lorne was, bypassing the gang and his table. Walking up to Lorne, he growled softly as Lorne looked at him.
"I told you that song was perfect."
"What have you done? Do you have 'any' idea?"
"Now come on sweetie....I did you a favor."
Angel laughed at him as he sat down heavily. "A favor? How in the world do you figure that?"
"See for yourself" Lorne said as he motioned with his head towards his table.
Angel turned and looked over his shoulder and saw Ravyn walking towards him. He swallowed hard and smiled as she sat down beside him.
"Hey" she said softly to him.
"Hey Ravyn"
"I just wanted to let you know that I really liked your song." she told him smiling.
Angel smiled at her as she sat there. "Thanks, but you know as well as I and all them..." he said pointing to the table, "that I can't carry a tune in a bucket." he added laughing.
Ravyn smiled bigger at him. "It doesn't matter. I liked it."
Angel leaned his head to the side slightly and looked at her. He could tell she was serious. "Thanks Ravyn."
"You're welcome Angel." Ravyn said still smiling. "So, you gonna ask me to dance..or what?"
Angel grinned and stood up. "Would you like to dance?"
"I'd love to." Ravyn said as she stood and took his hand.
Lorne smiled as he watched them step on the dance floor. "Well done Angel cakes...well done."
~*~*~*~
Dawn watched Spike as he watched Angel and Ravyn. She could see the look of concern on his face. Moving her chair closer to him she grabbed his hand and smiled.
"You know she's just trying to make him feel better because we were all laughing at him...right?"
Spike looked over at her. "Yeah...I hope your right."
"I am right Spike. I saw the way she was looking at you."
Spike sighed as he turned his attention back to Angel and Ravyn. He needed to decide what he wanted and fast before Angel stepped in and made his decision for him. Just because Ravyn was back didn't mean she was still in love with him...did it? And how did he feel about her?
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Ravyn walked into the hotel and pulled her shoes off as everyone else pilled in. She hadn't stopped smiling all the way back from the club. It was the best time she had had in...well, she couldn't even remember the year.
Turning to face everyone she said goodnight and went towards the stairs.
Spike followed her. He knew she was avoiding him. It was his own fault, he knew that. Him not talking to her after her and Angel had returned to the table after their dance was enough for him to know that jealously did not suit him.
Walking to her room he stepped in front of her door just as she was about to shut it.
"Hey..Ravyn?" Spike said as she turned, hand on the door.
Ravyn saw him and smiled. "Hey..did you need something?"
"Yeah...well no, not really." Spike said fidgeting a little.
Ravyn giggled a little. "Just spit it out Spike." she told him as she saw how nervous he was.
Spike looked down and smiled before he looked back up at her. "Yeah, well...I was just wondering if....well, if you wanted to do something...tomorrow...."
Ravyn smiled at his terrible attempt to ask her out. "Are you asking me out on a date Spike?" she said loving the way he was acting. Spike getting jittery around her, who would have thought that would happen. It was usually her getting nervous around him.
Spike took a deep breath and let it out, smiling at her as he did. "Yeah.....guess I am."
They both stood looking at one another for a minute before Spike couldn't take the silence anymore.
"So....yes, no..never?"
Ravyn walked closer to him and leaned up, kissing him on the cheek. As she stepped away, she smiled and leaned her head to the side. "Not sure...." she said grinning slyly. "Depends on what this 'date' will entail."
"Anything you want pet. Anything at all." Spike said, loving the 'hard to get' attitude she was playing at.
"Well, anything? That just leaves the whole world open then...doesn't it?"
"Yeah, guess it does."
"Well, since you asked so nicely and looked so cute doing so....."
"Hey, I told you I wasn't cute." Spike said grinning at her.
Ravyn giggled as she remembered the last time she had called him cute. "Oh, sorry....what was it again?" she asked him, grinning.
"Oh, something about devilishly handsome..sexy..." Spike started before she cut him off.
"Yeah, yeah...I remember. Boy your ego's still larger than my wardrobe." Ravyn said laughing.
"Well?"
"Well what?" Ravyn asked him.
"Bloody hell woman...thirty bleeding years and you're still the most irritating thing I've ever know." Spike told her, knowing she was playing with him now. "So, you want to go out or not?"
Ravyn stepped back a few steps and put a hand on the door. "Oh, I don't know Spike...I'll need to think about it." she said grinning at him. "I know what kind a vamp you are....ask me again and we'll see." she added as she winked at him and shut the door, leaving him looking confused on the other side.
Spike smiled as the door shut. "You think that's funny?" he asked her through the door.
"No, but the look on your face was." she said back to him.
Spike shook his head, grinning. "Goodnight Ravyn" he told her, as he stepped back away from the door.
"Goodnight Spike" Ravyn said, knowing things had just taken an interesting turn.
