Hurt

Willow closed her eyes and hovered her hand just above his forehead, which had gone an angry red and crusted over.

" Power exposure. Extreme power exposure, Buffy with him being exposed to such an extreme power source and him being a Vampire I have no idea how long it will take for him to recover."

Buffy looked at him scared. Everything had been perfect not that long ago, Giles had excepted him. He had called Spike his future son in-law. How could everything change from perfect to disaster. She couldn't take anymore, seeing Spike laid out on the floor with a nasty burn across his forehead. Spike was the strongest person she knew and she couldn't stand seeing him so weak.

Willow watched Buffy stifle a sob and run out of the room, Willow looked at the door and knew she should be running after Buffy but Dawn was here, Dawn might need her too.

" Go Willow I'll be fine, go after her."

Willow smiled at Dawn before bolting out.

" Couldn't leave fast enough."

Dawn muttered the empty room and unconscious Spike. She looked at Spike closely and gently placed her hand over the burn. They fitted, the burn and her hand. The burn was the shape of her hand. She had did this to him.

" How ? How could I"

Dawn whispered to herself, she tried to remember but all she could remember was yelling at Spike and then the whole world turned into a green haze until she had her hand over unconscious Spike's forehead.

" What's h-happening to m-me ?"

Spike whined and his hands began to curl into fists, gently Dawn touched his nearest hand and gently eased it out of a fist and she placed her hand in his.

" I'm sorry Spike, Please don't remember please ! I don't know what happened and I know I hurt you but I don't remember. You know what that's like Spike, you know better than anyone. Forgive me, Spike please !"

Dawn broke into tears and buried her face down on to his chest barely feeling hands gently move against her cheek.

" D-D-Dawn ?"

Dawn slowly moved up from his chest and met his face just as Spike's eyes flew open. The gaze was scorching and she felt weak against him and his intense gaze, she looked deep into his icy blue eyes and begged silently that he'd see her and she wanted him to. An innocent normal teenager who couldn't and wouldn't harm him.

But your not are you

Dawn told herself bitterly.

It felt like decades but eventually warmth and love filled Spike's icy blue eyes and Dawn in relief collapsed down on his chest. Out cold.

Hey, Spike can't remember at the moment, he didn't want to believe it and so he's mind has tricked him into believing it didn't happen. He cannot remember what he saw, all he remembers is a glowing green. For now Dawn's got away with it.

Review and I'll update soon.
