Giles glanced at the clock, wondering who’d come a-knocking so late. It had to be either some kind of Hellmouth emergency or…
“Spike, of course,” he muttered, opening the door.
He clicked his tongue. “Rupert.”
“What do you want?”
“I’m here for my reward. Three hundred bucks, pay up,” he said, extending his hand.
“I’m not paying you, you twerp! You crashed my car. It’s useless.”
“That old crate has been useless for years, mate.”
Giles scoffed. “Everyone’s a critic.”
“Hey. I risked getting caught by those commandos to help you. Stop whining about your soddin’ car and pay up!”
Giles crossed his arms. “I’m keeping the money as damage compensation.”
“That bloody piece of junk ain’t worth more than fifty bucks.”
“Goodnight, Spike,” he said, starting to close the door.
Spike slammed a hand on it, keeping it open. “Wait! I’m willing to trade the dosh for some telly time and a glass of scotch.”
“Not happening.”
“I haven’t found a shelter yet and the soldiers are still looking for me.”
“Why do I care?”
Spike smirked. “If it weren't for me, Angelus would have killed you. Ask Buffy, we had a deal.”
Reluctantly, Giles stepped aside. “One. Night.”
