The walk home was the worst. Everytime she took a step her right heel hurt. Her left left leg was sore and her elbow was still throbbing from where she had landed. But, she was lucky to be alive.
“Hey lilbit, how’re ….my god, what happen to you?”
“Oh, Spike, well, I ran into a couple of vamps who tried to make me their dinner.”
Spike noticed her limp and with grace and seemingly little effort reached down and picked Dawn up and began carrying her.
Dawn started to protest then wrapped her arms about his neck and whispered, “thanks” as she let him carry her home.
Spike carried her into the house and dumped her on the couch.
“Anyone home?”
Willow came around the corner. “Hey Spike, my god!” as she took in Dawn sprawled on the couch. “Dawnie, what happened?”
Spike answered for her, “She ran into some vamps I guess.”
“Spike, stay here with her while I go get some stuff.”
Within a few minutes Willow was patching Dawn up with what she could find. Buffy came in the back door.
“I’m home!”
She walked into the living room and was instantly at Dawn’s side. “Dawnie, what happened?”
“I’m gonna start charging every time people ask me that.”
“She ran into some vamps according to Spike.”
“Uh, people, I’m sitting right here!”
