Things Change

Summary:
Sequel to Things Happen

Chapter 1

"Would you like some tea, Willow?"

Willow turned and looked at her 'daughter', a smile on her face. "Yes Drusilla...I'd love some tea."

The redhead sat opposite the woman, waiting as she poured the imaginary substance into the tiny china cup. She was trying to break Dru of the habit of calling her mommy. Over the last two weeks Willow had come to care a lot about the vampire, but being called mother by someone older than her was just a bit disturbing. Of course, Spike never failed to mention it now. He was one she would not be able to break of the annoying habit.

"Do you like your room, Mom...Willow?" Dru asked, correcting herself with a smile.

"Yes I do. Angelus chose a beautiful home." Willow said, looking around Dru's room. "Do you like your room?"

"Very much" Dru said, "But I wish I had pretty flowing drapes. Those heavy curtains are ugly."

"They keep the sun out, princess" Angelus gently reminded as he stepped into the room. He sat beside Willow, glancing at the empty glass in her hands. "You were good today" he said simply, a smile crossing his lips.

"Yes" Willow said, kissing him softly. "Dru, honey, would you like to paint your windows black? That way we could get you some pretty drapes without worrying about the sun."

Dru's eyes widened as she clapped, "Oh...could we?"

"You spoil the brat" Spike said gruffly as he leaned against the doorway. "She doesn't need any damn curtains."

"Do too" Drusilla said, sticking her tongue out at him. "Mommy said I could have some. So there."

"What do I get then?" Spike asked, letting his eyes rake over Willow's form. He leered, amusement crossing his face as she blushed.

"A fat lip if you keep looking at my woman like that" Angelus said, his tone warning but playful. He had only had Willow for two weeks now. He had no intention of rushing her into anything she wasn't ready for. Spike could be patient and wait. He snickered at the idea of Spike being patient.

"Your woman?" Willow said, rolling her eyes. "My lord...I've woken up in the wrong era."

"So, Mum...what do I get? I mean, it's not fair if Dru gets pretty curtains and I don't get anything.....you'd be playing favorites" he said, his lower lip thrusting out as he pouted at her.

"Would you like pretty drapes, too, Spike?" Dru asked, a slight smile crossing her face.

"Fuck the damn drapes" Spike said, frowning.

"Ah...poor baby feels left out" Willow said, a mischievious smile on her face. "I'll think of something for you, Spike. Don't want to be accused of being a wicked stepmother now do I?"

Spike smiled at her words. "If you'd rather not think, I can give you a list. Pretty simple list. Most involve you, naked hot flesh and me."

"Spike" Angelus warned, his arm tightening around Willow's shoulders.

Willow just laughed, "You are such a flirt, Spike. Don't worry that pretty little head. I'll make sure it's something real good. Until then, though, would you like to help me paint Dru's windows this weekend?"

Spike groaned, "Do I haveta?"

"Please?" Willow asked, a smile on her face.

Spike rolled his eyes, "Fine. I'll help. The things I do for you, Red."

"Goodie" Dru said, trying to decide what color curtains she wanted.

"We can paint after you get home from school Friday" Angelus said, glad to see how easily his children had accepted his mate and vice versa. Willow had moved in with them two weeks before and he could honestly say that the entire family had never been happier. It was strange how things changed. "Want some dinner?"

"Sure. We can pick up some burgers" Willow said, allowing him to pull her to her feet. "Thank you for the tea, Dru."

"Thank you for the curtains Mum" Dru said, putting the china away. "Miss Edith will be so happy to hear we will have pretty flowing drapes."

"Can I go too?" Spike asked, his eyes hopeful.

Willow laughed, "When have I ever told you no?"

He smiled, "Hopefully never."

"I think I may be ill" Angelus said, making a face.

"Oh hush" Willow said, kissing him again. "Let's get something to eat. Dru, honey, I'll bring you back a chocolate milk shake, ok?"

"Thank you" Dru said, having become addicted to the tasty treats since Willow had moved in. She had never realized how yummy human's food could be.

"Can I have one too?" Angelus asked, his mind recalling the last milk shake he had...poured over Willow's flesh as he licked it off of her. He was delighted when she turned red, her heart beating faster. She remembered too.

"If you're good" Willow promised, walking down the stairs.

Spike snorted, "Well, there goes that then."

Angelus glared at him, "I can be good" he said defensively as he followed Willow out in to the night.

**********

Willow heard the bell ring and thankfully put her chemistry book in her bag. She gathered her stuff and went to leave the room. It was strange how things changed. Since she and Angelus had announced their feelings, she had lost her friends. She only heard from Giles when research was needed. Angelus told her she was a silly twit for helping them at all after the way they treated her. She hated that they hated her, but she wasn't going to give Angelus or her new life up for anyone.

It was lunchtime. Instead of going to the library as she would have done the year before, she headed outside. She so loved this time of year. Cool breezes and warm sunlight. She smiled as she remembered the conversation she had had with Dru and Spike about the sun the other day. They couldn't remember what it felt like and had insisted on her describing the entire sensation in detail to them. In some ways, they were almost like children. Spike tried to act all knowing, but he often had questions for her to answer. Sometimes more than Drusilla.

Angelus always watched and listened with a smile. She was proud that his two favorite children had accepted her so easily. She shuddered to imagine what it might have been like had they hated her. As it was, they seemed to love her. She loved them both. Dru as a sister. Spike as something a bit more which she still couldn't exactly understand. She was in no hurry to examine those feelings yet either. She sat down and closed her eyes, enjoying the warmth of the sun. She memorized the scene so that she could tell Dru about it...remembering even the most minute detail of the smell and sounds.

"Ahem" a soft voice caught her attention.

Willow looked up, smiling as she saw Amy. "Hey there."

"Can I sit?" Amy asked, surprised to see Willow alone, again.

"Sure" Willow replied. This was the first time she had eaten lunch with anyone all school year. Her snubbing by the gang had ensured that.

"I've noticed that you seem to have had a falling out with the others" Amy said as she began to eat her sandwich.

Willow shrugged, "Their loss. I'm dating the guy that Buffy had a thing for...she didn't deal very well."

Amy's eyes widened, "Really? Wow...do I know him?"

Willow bit her lip as she smiled, "No...he's a bit older than us....."

Amy nodded, "That good looking dark haired guy that you all use to meet at the Bronze? Holy cow...he's a hottie."

"He's my Angelus" Willow said, proudly.

"And here I thought Mark was good" Amy said, mentioning her boyfriend of three months. "So...you could use a friend?"

Willow smiled at the blonde's hopeful look. "Yes...that would be nice."

Amy beamed, "Cool. So, how did you do on the chem test?"

The two girls began to talk about school and their lives over the summer. Willow heard about Mark, a freshman from the University of Sunnydale that Amy had met while working at the magic shop over the summer. Willow spoke of Angelus and their falling in love, not mentioning the details of his being a vampire or her new 'children' just yet. She wasn't sure Amy was ready for all that. It was just nice being with someone again at school. She had a newly discovered friend.

**********

Willow set her school bag down and headed upstairs. She was early, having cut her final class of the day. She knew they had a sub and all that was planned was some movie. She heard a familiar moan and paused. She opened her bedroom door, her eyes widening as she took in the two forms on the bed.

Angelus was fucking Spike. She knew she should leave, but couldn't tear her eyes away. God, Spike was gorgeous. Lean and pale. She saw Angelus' hand on the blonde's long cock and felt her mouth dry as the area between her thighs wettened. She knew the two vampires were lovers. It wasn't that big of a deal to her. She had just never seen it before. It was the most erotic thing she'd ever seen. Angelus pistoning into Spike's ass. Spike pushing back for more. She felt her nipples tighten as she watched her lover with his childe.

Willow couldn't believe how gentle they were. She had assumed that it would be rough and violent with lots of blood. She was very wrong. Of course, knowing from things that Angelus had said, she knew it sometimes was like that. It was part of their nature to claim. But this...this was almost sweet. She reluctantly moved from the door, closing it and heading to find Drusilla. She didn't want Angelus to know she had seen them. But, visions of them both taking her wouldn't leave her mind as she walked.

What would it be like to have sex with two men? Not even that. Two vampires that seemed to adore her. She felt her body heat up as she thought about it. Would Angelus take her ass as Spike fucked her? She leaned her head against the wall as the entire scenario played itself in her mind. She ran a hand down to her jeans, slipping it inside her panties. She caught her cry as she slid two fingers into her soaking passage. She had gotten so wet watching them together. She brushed her thumb over her clit as she imagined them both biting into her as they climaxed. She came softly, her juices soaking through her panties and coating her hand.

She straightened up, fastening her jeans. She licked her juices from her fingers, wishing she had the nerve to just join them. She wouldn't, she knew. She was scared. Scared that taking Spike as a lover would change her. She knew that was what Angelus ultimately wanted. To share his two lovers with each other. It was what he had always intended. She just didn't know. Maybe someday soon it would happen. Until then, she would be content with memories of them together.

She smiled as she again made her way to Dru's room. The woman would be happy to see her home early. Maybe they could finish painting stars on the newly blackened windows of her room. Willow had started them the day before, thinking that the stars made it look cheerier. Dru loved the new drapes and also loved the stars. Of course, Dru seemed to love just about anything. Willow laughed as she went in and greeted her daughter.

**********

Angelus played with Willow's hair as they watched the television. She was lying on the couch with her head in his lap. Spike was lounged in a large armchair watching them both with a small smile. Drusilla was lying on the floor watching the cartoon intently. Every now and then she asked Willow a question before turning back to the TV. Amy watched them all with a large smile. It was like a family. She had been rather shocked when she had found out that Willow's new boyfriend was a vampire. Even more surprising had been Spike and his involvement in their relationship. She watched Willow and knew her friend was completely in love with Angelus. Amy was aware that the vampire was evil. But, he treated Willow like a queen and that was enough for Amy. Her friend deserved devotion. And she appeared to have it in spades.

"Can we go to the fair?" Drusilla asked, pointing at the commercial.

"I don't know Princess. Why don't you let us think about it?" Angelus said, his finger brushing against Willow's cheek.

"Ok" Dru replied, going back to the television.

Spike snorted, "Dandy. Just what we need. Family night at the carny."

"We'll be sure to let you stay home alone" Willow said sweetly. Angelus laughed deeply, his action causing her head to move.

"Bloody hell, Mum. I was just joking." Spike said defensively, glaring at his sire.

"So was I" Willow repeated back. She winked at Spike as she moved her head to look at Angelus' face. "We can go this weekend, can't we dear?"

Angelus heard Amy giggle and looked at her. He rolled his eyes before saying, "See what I have to live with? A whiny brat for a son, a princess for a daughter, and a demanding wench for a mate."

Amy laughed, "Sounds like the epitome of the American family."

"Don't encourage him, Amy" Willow said, laughing. "Do you want to go to the fair with us? You can bring uh...what's his name."

"That's over," Amy said. "I've moved on to this guy named Brian. He's very sweet. I think that might be fun. If you don't mind?"

"She wouldn't have asked if she minded" Spike said drolly, taking a drag from his cigarette, "Real intelligent friends, pet."

"Can it Blondie" Willow said, "Yes, Amy. We'd love to have you join us. Bring Brian. The boys will be on their best behavior. Promise."

Angelus snorted, exchanging a glance with Spike. "She doesn't know us very well, do she?"

Spike just laughed wickedly as Willow smacked Angelus on the arm. He settled back in his chair and watched the cartoon. Simply enjoying being with his family. He could even tolerate the little witch for Willow. She was better than the damn slayer. He joined Drusilla in laughing over the antics of the cartoon creatures.

**********

The sounds of laughter, rides and chatter filled the night air the group met up with Amy and Brian. Willow hugged her friend, again thankful that Amy had extended that offer of friendship. Between her love for Angelus, her feelings for Spike, her relationship with Dru and her friendship with Amy, she didn't even miss her old friends. She pulled back from Amy and smiled at the nice looking boy standing next to the witch. "You must be Brian."

"Willow?" the boy smiled. "Amy has told me a lot about you."

"I hope it was all good" Willow said, moving back into Angelus' arms.

"Of course" Amy said, laughing. She joined arms with Brian and watched with a smile as Spike moved behind Willow and Angelus and took Willow's hand. Drusilla was watching them, an annoyed look on her face.

"Can we go in now?" she asked, her eyes watching all the bright lights and people walking. She pulled Willow's hand from an irritated Spike and dragged the redhead into the fair. "Come along Mum. We can ride the roller coaster."

Angelus rolled his eyes. "Great...that's the last glance I'll have of Willow for hours."

"Come on Pops, we can track the women down and maybe snack on some unsuspecting youth." Spike said, laughing at Angelus' look.

"No snacking. Willow would have your hide." Angelus said, "And then mine for allowing it...."

"Uh...I think I missed something" Brian said to Amy. She looked at his confused face and laughed.

"Come on Brian. We need to talk" Amy said, wondering how much she'd have to tell her new boyfriend...and also wondering how much he'd believe. Maybe he at least would not check her into the psych ward of Sunnydale General. She knew he believed in magic and such. How much farther would his belief have to be for vampires to be real?

Angelus watched the witch lead her perplexed boyfriend away. He looked at Spike and chuckled, "Bets on: He freaks."

"Nah....he seems pretty knowledgeable" Spike said.

"If I'm right, you give yourself to me tomorrow...anything I want." Angelus said smirking at what he decided was an easy victory.

"And WHEN I win?" Spike asked.

"What do you want?" Angelus asked, his eyes searching for Willow and Dru.

"Willow" Spike said, watching as his sire paused, brown eyes looking at him with a glint of anger.

"What?" Angelus asked, his tone quite but deadly.

"Get your mind out of the gutter, Peaches" Spike said, grinning.

"Explain" Angelus demanded.

"I want to watch you two...." Spike said, the playfulness leaving his face. "I want to watch her face as she cums...I want to hear her moans and the sounds she makes as you enter her. Fuck, sire, I want her...Have for months now..."

"I know" Angelus said softly. "Fine. Since I know I'll win, I agree. You can watch me and Willow."

Spike nodded, a scowl on his handsome face. He wanted Willow so badly. He already had his sire during the daylight hours. Now, he wanted to share that love with them both. He wanted to wake up with his arm around Willow and his sire's hands on his waist. He'd been patient, but his patience was slowly fading. He sent a little prayer up for the first time in over a hundred years that the Brian chap would be cool with it all. Then maybe his patience would finally be rewarded.

Willow laughed as she and Dru joined Amy and Brian at the Ferris wheel. Brian looked a bit shell-shocked, but he smiled as they approached. "Hey. How was the roller coaster?"

"It was lovely. Being so close to the stars." Dru said, taking Brian's hand. "Come along my warm little pet. Let's talk to the stars."

Amy watched Brian glance at her slightly panicked before he just laughed and joined Dru in a seat of the Ferris wheel. Willow looked at her and smiled, "I like him. He can stay."

"Glad you approve." Amy said. "I was so glad that he was cool with it all..."

"You mean...you just told him?" Willow said, a smile crossing her face. "Amy!"

"What? How was I suppose to say it? Oh, by the way Brian, you know those people we're going to meet? Well, three of them are dead, one is a bit loony and the other two are both in love with Willow. Yeah, right. Like he was going to take that well."

"He seems to have" Willow said, laughing as she and Amy took a seat on the Ferris wheel. "I'm glad. Brian seems nice."

"Yeah, he is" Amy agreed. "I'm glad he accepted it all."

From beneath them, Spike looked up at a laughing Brian seated next to Drusilla and then at Amy and Willow chattering in the seat under them. He looked at Angelus and shot his sire a triumphant smile. "Guess I win this one, Peaches."

Angelus kept his eyes on Willow, a slight smile crossing his face. "That you did, my boy. That you did."

**********

Willow saw the look that Spike was giving Angelus and looked at her lover thoughtfully. Something had happened at the carnival. What, she wasn't sure. She didn't know if she liked the wicked gleam that was in Spike's eyes, but it warmed her more than she would ever admit. She felt herself growing aroused from a simple look. She shifted against Angelus, causing him to look at her. "Did you have fun?"

Angelus smiled. He could smell her arousal coming off of her in waves. "Yes, Willow. It was nice. Did you enjoy it?"

"Very much" Willow said, smiling up at him.

"It had its moments" Spike added, smirking at his sire. He let his blue eyes rake over Willow, their expression softening slightly. He was finally going to see her make love. He couldn't contain his excitement. He wanted her so badly. He was tired of sitting downstairs and waiting.

"I loved it" Dru said, clapping. "The most fun. Thank you Mum."

"You're welcome Dru" Willow said, feeling Angelus' chest rumble as he laughed. "Hush" she said, smacking him.

"You definitely have a loyal fan, Red" Angelus said, his hand caressing her face. "Well, more than one actually."

"Aw, you say the sweetest things" Willow said, leaning up to kiss him gently.

"I think I might puke" Spike said, making a face.

Willow laughed as she pulled away from Angelus. "I love you too Spike" she said, leaning forward and kissing him. She didn't know what made her do it, but he had sounded so sullen...so left out. She meant it to be a simple chaste kiss. Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. Spike moved, his lips meeting hers. His eyes widened in surprise but he wasn't about to let her go. He brought his hand up and drew her closer. She gasped, allowing him access to her mouth. She whimpered at the heat that spread through her at his touch. His kiss was demanding and lusty, not like Angelus' who was always gentle and seductive. This was pure need and desire. She felt Angelus' hands on her back, his touch soothing as her emotions went haywire.

Drusilla watched her Mum kiss Spike and smiled. She stood, waving to Angelus as she went upstairs. She had so much to tell her dollies about her day. She shut her door and fell on her bed, eager to discuss her night.

Angelus felt Willow arch back against him. He moved his hands over her back, around to cup her breasts. He heard her soft sigh of pleasure and knew she was ready. He knew what she wanted. He let his other hand drift over Spike's leg, up to caress his childe's cock. He was rewarded by a low moan from Spike as he teased both his lovers with his large hands, first kneading Willow's breast and then cupping Spike's erection. His mouth on Willow's neck nipping at the flesh as he let his hand go underneath her shirt, her flesh warm against his palm as he twisted her nipple. Still, Spike refused to let her lips go. He was making love to her with his mouth, Willow swore. And she loved it. This was right, she decided. She knew what taking this step would mean but she couldn't turn back. She pulled away from Spike, gasping for air. He watched her, his blue eyes narrowed slits of desire. She looked at Angelus and smiled, "I think we need to move this upstairs."

"Are you sure?" Angelus asked, his hand caressing her face. He saw Spike watching nervously, his childe's eyes clouded with desire.

Willow nodded, her hand holding Spike's as she told Angelus, "Yes. I'm ready."

**********

Spike couldn't believe it was finally happening. He held on tightly to Willow's small hand and followed her and his sire up the stairs. He brushed his fingers across her palm, smiling as he felt her shudder. He walked into their bedroom, suddenly feeling a bit nervous. When he and Angelus were together, it was always his room. Angelus hadn't wanted to mix their relationship with Willow so they had never had sex in the master bedroom. He glanced at Willow and saw her biting her lower lip. He smiled as he drew her close and kissed her again, taking complete possession of her mouth.

Angelus moved behind Willow, knowing she was scared. He kissed the back of her neck as his hands drifted around to unbutton her shirt. He teased each piece of warm flesh as it was revealed, hearing her heart racing at the contact. She was so responsive. That was one of the many things he loved about her. He finished with the last button, pulling away only long enough to allow her shirt to fall to the ground. He trailed kisses down her back as he used his teeth to unclasp her bra. He felt her shudder as his bare teeth scraped against her tender skin. He kneeled behind her as he deftly unzipped her jeans and shoved them to the floor. He could smell her arousal, thick in the air. He kissed the silk covering her firm ass cheeks as he slid his long fingers into the elastic of her panties. He glanced up and saw Spike's hands on her back, his fingers drawing small circles as they kissed.

Angelus slid her panties off, lifting first one leg and then the other as he removed the denim and silk. He again moved to a kneeling position as his tongue licked at first one globe and then the other. His fingers found her wet curls, teasing her as she began to whimper into Spike's demanding mouth. Angelus laughed huskily as he freed his erection before it tore through his pants. He ran his tongue over the pink pucker of her ass. He heard her gasp as he began to wet an area that was still untouched. Soon, Willow was moving back to his questing tongue as she writhed on his fingers. Angelus stood up, his hand roughly bringing her head back and away from Spike's as he kissed her, a demanding thorough kiss. His hand, slick from her juices, tore at the fastener of Spike's jeans. He ran its wetness along Spike's cock, hearing his childe's groan.

Willow pulled away from Angelus, her wetness dripping down her thigh. She had felt his tongue and fingers enter her ass and knew what he planned. A feeling of apprehension mixed with excitement went through her. She took Spike's hand as he led her to the bed. She watched as he laid down, a soft smile on his face as he beckoned to her. She looked at Angelus and smiled, the love she felt for him on her face. She crawled up the bed and positioned herself over Spike's long cock. She moaned as she slid down on it, taking its length into her. She began to move, slowly at first as she adjusted to his size. She felt the bed shift as Angelus joined them. She felt his chest against her back as his fingers dipped down between her and Spike, playing with her clit as his childe's cock moved into her. She then felt his finger adding more wetness to her ass. Stilling, she waited until she felt the head of his cock against her. A cool substance coated him, allowing him to push easily into her. Her head fell down on Spike's chest as she gave a guttural groan as Angelus slowly pushed into her. He took his time, moving in small strokes until he was sunk deep into her ass. She felt Spike's hands on her face, lifting it to kiss her. She felt the two men begin a rhythm inside her that soon had her moving and begging for more.

Willow felt Angelus push her down until her breasts were rubbing against Spike's smooth chest. She continued to kiss the vampire only stopping when she felt a hand in her hair lifting her. She looked back as Angelus caught her mouth. She felt Spike's mouth on her breasts as she continued to ride them both. She felt her cunt tighten as a wave of pleasure shot through her. She cried out, biting Angelus' tongue as she came. Angelus chuckled, his fingers finding her clit as he and Spike continued to thrust into her willing body. She began to babble as his mouth drifted over her face. She felt him speed up, his hand clenched around her thighs as he brought her forcibly back onto his cock. She felt more fingernails dig into her as Spike growled, his seed sent deep into her as his teeth bit into her breast. She cried out in release from the pleasure as Angelus' teeth sunk into her neck, his own cold seed spilling into her ass. She collapsed on top of Spike, feeling Angelus pull out of her. His arms went around her as he fell to Spike's side, bringing her with him. He nuzzled her neck, his arms holding her in his embrace. Spike turned to face them, moving slightly lower on the bed. He smiled at Willow, kissing her softly before resting his head by her breast, his tongue lapping slowly at the small trickle of blood. She sighed in contentment as both her lovers softly suckled her skin as she drifted off to sleep.

**********

Willow laughed as Amy finished telling her story. "So, Xander just stood there with his mouth hanging open?"

"Why does that not surprise me?" Angelus said dryly.

"That's bad" Amy said, rolling her eyes. "But, yes, he is a moron. I just don't get those guys at all."

"Buffy is a bitch. Simple enough really" Angelus said.

"Angelus" Willow warned, smiling at him. "She may be a bitch, but she's protecting the town."

Spike snorted, cursing as he smeared the nail polish he had been putting on Willow's toe. "Damn it. Dru, honey, give me the remover. I smeared."

"Spike...why are you painting my toes again?" Willow asked, looking down into his blue eyes.

"Cause I want to" he remarked, grinning at her as he blew softly on the wet paint. He saw her bring her lower lip into her mouth as his fingers caressed the soul of her foot. He saw Angelus roll his eyes as Spike continued his slow teasing.

"Oh" Willow said simply, wondering how such a little thing, as having your toes painted, could be so erotic. She shifted on the couch, leaning into Angelus' body.

Amy watched her friend and the two vampires. She hadn't asked, not really wanting details, but she knew that Spike had joined Willow and Angelus. It was obvious to her all along that the blonde had been in love with Willow for who knew how long. But, things had changed. There was a closeness between them now that was evident to her. Besides that, you could cut the sexual energy with a knife. She laughed, "So, Willow. Must I ask what you did this weekend? Or would Who be more appropriate?"

"Amy!" Willow said, her face turning red.

Angelus laughed, "I like this girl, Red."

"She can stay" Dru added, moving back to play with Amy's hair. The witch was allowing the vampire to play hairdresser with her, knowing whatever the woman did she could fix easily.

"Did you hear that Amy?" Willow said, "You can stay."

"Yay" Amy said, smiling at the compliment. She rather enjoyed Willow and her family. It was comfortable just sitting around them and talking.

Spike finished with the last toe, blowing on it until the paint was dry. "See, luv? Lovely red toes."

Willow glanced down, wriggling her toes. "Looks great."

"That was nice" Spike said, sitting back on his heels. He smiled, a wicked gleam entering his blue eyes. "Feeling rather artistic now...do we have any body paint?"

Amy stood, laughing as Willow's eyes lit with desire. "I think that's my cue to leave. Dru, would you like to stay over with me tonight? Give the adults a little time to themselves?"

Dru beamed, looking at Willow. "Can I, Mum?"

"Amy, are you sure?" Willow asked, her expression serious. She worried about Dru.

"It'll be fun. I doubt she's ever had a true slumber party before...we can even make prank calls to Buffy." Amy said, smiling at the thought.

Angelus chuckled, covering it with a cough when Willow elbowed his ribs. "Sorry."

"Amy...you can not teach her how to make prank calls. That's bad. Now, you could toilet paper her house...." Willow said, laughing as Amy glared at her.

"Phone calls are easier than TPing the bitch's house" Amy pointed out. "Dru and I will have fun...please say yes Mum?"

"Yes, Dru can stay with you...You'll have to keep her tomorrow until dusk though."

Amy smiled as she put her arm around Dru's shoulders, "Come on buddy. We can spend all night talking about boys and clothes...you'll love it."

Angelus watched them leave, turning towards Willow and Spike when he heard the door shut. "Amazing."

"Things definitely change constantly" Willow said, smiling. "So...this big old house all night with just the three of us...whatever will we do?"

Spike let his hands drift up her leg, "I dunno luv...I'm sure we'll think of something."

Angelus caught her mouth as he eased her back on the sofa. He and Spike proceeded to show her exactly what they could do all night and day. Laying on top of her, his head resting on her breast, his eyes on Spike's head laying between her legs, he realized that she was right. Things always change.

THE END
