{This is my first chapter for my new book. Since I'm older, I'm not going to write love scenes like I'm a PG-13 reader. If I write a love scene, the rating will be R. If you don't like it, sorry. But if you do, tell me what else you might want.}

(It's moving-in day. Ember has been waiting for her mom to pull-up to the dorms with her and Spikes stuff for an hour. Finally, her and Spike decide to wait in the dorm social area while they wait.)

Spike- So pet, are you going to be able to survive without me being next to you every night?

Ember- You'll only be two floors above me, plus Jade is going to my roommate and she'll understand if I need a little 'Spike Time'.

Spike- Oh, I love the way you think. (He kisses her sweetly.) So, how much longer before your mum shows up?

Ember- I have no idea. (Kissing him attentively.)

Spike- Sounds like plenty of time for some 'Spike Time'. (She starts to walk off towards the parking lot to get the car, looking back at Spike but then runs into some guy and knocks all of his stuff on the floor.)

Ember- Oh my god, I'm so sorry. I should have been watching where I was going.

Wesley- Oh it's quite alright. No harm done, just some of my books all over the place. (He said sweetly with his cute British accent.)

Ember- Here, let me help you. (She starts to help pick up his books, while Spike watches her from afar and recognizes who she's helping. But he can't believe his eyes once he realizes its Wesley, the big brained, little brawn-ed Wesley. He walks over right away to make sure he's not going crazy.)

Spike- Wesley... Wyndam... Pryce. My how you have not changed one bloody bit. (Wesley slowly looks at Spike, wondering what he's doing at a college campus in the daylight.)

Wesley- Spike? What on earth are you doing here and in the daylight no less?

Ember- Wait a minute, you two know each other? Okay, I'm now seriously confused.

Spike- Wesley here used to be Buffy's watcher after Giles was fired, after that he joined Angels team. At our last battle, Illyria told us he was dead and that's why I'm curious to see him standing here, alive and breathing.

Wesley- I know this comes to you quite a shock but there is an explanation to why I'm here. I was sent back to earth from the powers at be to watch Ember during her new faze in her life.

Spike- Another watcher? I thing we have plenty of people watching over Ember thanks. You can go back to heaven or hell or wherever you came from!

Ember- Spike, don't be so rude! I appreciate the Powers being worried about me but I don't think I can get into much trouble at college.

Wesley- Oh Ember, you have no idea.

Ember- What do you mean? I haven't seen any suspicious activity to prove it otherwise so why should I worry. (She turns around and sees her dad David standing outside with her mom talking.) Oh boy.

Spike- Who is it luv? (Seeing her anger and fear through her face.)

Ember- It's my dad, which means trouble is coming. (She walks towards him, only making eye contact with him and he's looking at her right back.) Hello David. (She says in an rude tone.)

David- Hello Ember. I was just talking to your mother asking her how you've been.

Ember- Well as you can see I'm doing just fine. No thanks to you. (David looks at her with pain, knowing what she meant.)

Tammy- (Tammy takes Ember aside to speak with her and calm her down.) Ember, he's here to talk to you. He came to the house looking for you, he needs to speak to you. In private.
