Author's note v2011: I'm sorry i haven't been about, i've been a bit of a recluse. No interweb for god knows how long... So i've been without Spuffy goodness myself. I took some time to re-read this whole story and realized, "Wow" This really sucks!" Why didn't you guys tell me earlier! Well, no worries, i went through the entuire story and revamped it, throwing it through the wash, and adding some extra giggly todbits here and there...

So Loyal reader's who have been awaiting these new chapter's! Don't skimp on re-reading! And remember REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW! Review until you can't anymore!

Author's note: Okay… this chapter is more to get the char. Acquainted with you… you can read it… there's a bit of humour, but if you really don't want to just know these things:

Spike is the leader of the band "Falling Down To Summerset" his band mates, David (drummer, tall skinny… a char. I made up…), and Nick (Bassist, he's a big guy, but has a really hot fiancé; both also made up). Okay, their band decided to take a vacation after spike's nasty break-up with Drusilla. Spike is the lead singer and guitarist, (in my fic, he's a geek, because geeks are cool, so we're talking star wars, doctor who, batman, star trek… yeh… Andrew type stuff… but these dude's make it look cool).

Buffy is a junior in high school, major crush on spike, because who in the world doesn't think he's hot? Angel, Cordelia, Xander, Anya, Willow, Riley and her are all good friends and have grown up together.

DISCLAIMER: I own nothing... nothing, just extremely bored...


July 19th 2009

"I'm sorry to say, mates… But it's time for a break… Falling Down To Summerset is taking its vacation…"

With that Spike and his two band mates left the live taping of Good Morning America before their interview was scheduled to be finished, leaving the hosts with 15 minutes to fill.

For 75% of the teenager's of the world, an apocalypse had hit. Falling Down To Summerset, a sky rocketing English band, known best for its trouble causing band member's, and especially attractive, bleach blonde leader had quit.

"Why did god do this to me!" Cordelia said as she flopped down onto her bed.

Buffy and Willow followed her into the room, all hopes crushed. Willow thumbed through People Magazine, trying to figure out who would pull such a disastrous prank. Buffy sat next to Cordelia and rubbed her back in an attempt to comfort her, "This must be a joke… I mean those guys pull crazy stuff all the time, but this… it's taking a bit too far."

"They're already starting the memorable collages about them here… Didn't they say they are still going to be a band?" Willow tossed the open magazine on the bed and sunk into Cordelia's bean bag chair. The picture had a small description of some of the band's success, and surrounding were pictures from a couple of their concerts. The most entertaining parts were pictures of Spike and the drummer, David, covered in paint from a body mural they decided to make at Central park in New York. Another was of Nick, the bassist, dressed as Robin, and Spike dressed as Batman as they walked onto the set of the Jay Leno Show. The final picture was of all three of the men in jock straps covered in their favourite colours. They were handcuffed and taking by the police after streaking during Wimbledon 2006.

Buffy and Cordelia giggled as they thumbed through the magazine, and reminisced.


Spike sat in his living room watching Top Gear, suddenly David came sprinting down stairs, three steps at a time. His long legs gave him the resemblance to an antelope, "I've got it!"

"Got what, then?"

"You wanted to do the whole teaching thing, without the whole band thing getting in the way…"

"Yeh…" Spike said, his brow furrowing as he tried to follow.

"If we shaved your head, and had you wearing those awful nerdy glasses you hate wearing so much, but refuse to admit you need to wear them… I bet you could get a job no problem… probably right here in town…" David smiled, feeling very proud. "The high school needs a new English teacher..." He winked giving Spike a 'Wink wink, nudge nudge' look, "And if you dressed like an absolute ponce…"

"It wouldn't work…"

"C'mon mate," David hopped over the old trunk the men used as their coffee table and sat on it in front of his closest friend, "You're always going on about your two 'passions' Music and literature…"

Spike just sighed and sunk into his seat; David gave up with a pout and went back upstairs. After Spike's destructive relationship with his ex, Drusilla, Spike had grown tired of the fame he had gained as one of the hottest geek's anyone has seen. Okay, so not so much, grown tired, as just needed a break; it was a pretty sweet deal after all. Since they had begun their vacation, which they had planned to be about two years long, the three men had settled down to their quiet life in California.

They lived on the outskirts of a small town, Sunnydale, and no one had really realized they resided there. The men kept to themselves, after all, they were easy entertainment for each other. Spike had known Nick since they were born in Gloucester; they grew up together and had always been the closest of friends. David didn't come into the picture until their 9th year of schooling, coming from around Scotland, all of them united in a school in London.

Nick wandered out of his bedroom, half awake and went to the kitchen. The man wasn't the most attractive guy; he was a large man, and slightly taller than Spike. To his advantage though he had a smoking hot, practically playboy bunny fiancé, named Holly. If you saw the two together you'd wonder why she would settle for him. Spike and David knew though that the two were really in love though, and very happy for them. Spike made it a goal of his to annoy the crap out of any girl who Nicholas was with. It was tests to see if the woman could truly handle the ridiculousness of living with them. Holly was proud to say she was the only girl to pass every test and not leave Nick on account of his "brothers". David on the other hand was a very attractive man, He was a tall brunette, and skinny but fit, and had the most amazing all-natural hair style. He was single and not really looking for a girl at the time.

Spike looked at the warm beer he had in his hand and felt lonely, very lonely. Sadly though he made a promise to himself. After Drusilla decided to whore herself out for attention to every walking body, and perhaps a few not-so-walking, he made a serious decision. No more sex, not even a polite wank from a pretty girl if he were drunk enough, nothing. He was going to date, really date for the first time in forever. No sex until he found a girl he knew wouldn't give him strange itchiness down yonder. After two weeks though he found out something vital, celibacy sucks, and sometimes wanking didn't compare to being wrapped up in another body.

"Bollocks…" He stood up and went into the kitchen, "That's it… its nacho time…" He went to the fridge and pulled out his ingredients. As he turned around he wasn't surprised to see David and Nick hovering just outside the kitchen, "It's alright, mates… I'll make some for us all…"

"Oh ya…" They both said and went into the kitchen.


"I wonder what they're doing right now…"

Buffy and Willow looked up and chuckled.

"I bet their totally doing something cool…" Cordelia responded to her own thought out loud.

"Ya… oh my god, they're probably working out… or swimming, oh my gosh… David with no shirt…" Willow said dreamily.

Buffy and Cordelia made an 'ew' face simultaneously, "Spike, way hotter…" Buffy said, "And I bet he's writing songs… or singing… god he has the dreamiest voice…"

They all jumped when the doorbell rang, "Okay… let's save the eye candies for another time… we totally have our own boys to hang out with now…" Cordelia jumped up and ran down stairs to answer the door.


In reality Falling Down To Summerset really weren't that cool, they spent most of their time being complete geeks, reading their comic books, or watching Sci-fi films. Tonight was a bit different though.

"Why would you leave him, he's so in love with you…" Spike yelled at the television set with tears in his eyes as he sat on the couch with David and Nick, sharing nachos and watching an especially sad episode of Passions together.

"You guys… I can't take much more of this… it's so depressing…" Nick said as he shielded his eye's, he was trying his best not to cry.

Holly walked by on her way to the bathroom and saw the three distraught men; "You guys are so pathetic…" she said and continued on her way.

Spike grabbed the bowl of nachos and threw it at her, sadly missing, "Sod off then, Holly!"

Both Nick and David threw their hands up into the air, "Nachos DOWN!" they exclaimed as the dish clabbered onto the floor.

David sniffled, "We need a pick-me-up…" He wiped some of his tears on his sleeve.

"What about… the wall…" Spike said looking at the wall between them and the kitchen, "We could turn that into the most amazing bar…" Spike stood up and ran his hand over the wall. "And we'd be able to use sledge hammers…"

"I call hammer run!" David jumped up and ran out to the garage to retrieve the sledge hammer.

Nick grabbed a sharpie and drew a large square. "That's a pretty good sized opening…" Spike grabbed the sharpie, "No! Biggerbiggerbigger…" He drew an even bigger square. "Yeh…" He said just as a hammer head smashed through the wall from the other side. Sadly though, David completely missed the designated square. "You twit!" Spike shrugged and extended the square so it covered the accident as well.

Holly heard a loud thud and put down her hair brush, for moment she listened then shrugged and continued with her hair, then several more thud followed. She burst through the bathroom door and went to the kitchen, "Are you fucking kidding me guys!"


Buffy followed Cordelia downstairs, the house was empty for the night except for the girls, so they took the opportunity to have a little party. Buffy and Willow went into the living room as Cordelia let, Angel, Riley, Xander, Anya, and Tara in. Xander and Anya were together, and Willow and Tara had this cute thing going on between them, other than that Angel and Riley were both single. Lucky for Buffy, Riley was crushing very hard on her, she wasn't too interested though. He was so... bland.

Now this night isn't some crazy teen party, just friends getting together for a stay at home movie while they had the time before school started. This was the little group the kids had formed over the years, Sunnydale being such a small town all they had grown up together. After some heated discussion about Falling Down To Summerset's vacation, the popcorn was cooking and everyone started settling down for The Blaire Witch.
