SPIKE: No? What kind of answer is that, you haven't even heard the question yet.
BUFFY: I don't have to. We both know what you're thinking.
SPIKE: (grins) And we both know ... that I'm not the only one thinking it.
BUFFY: No! Not here.
SPIKE: Why not?
BUFFY: Dawn. She's inside waiting for dinner, she's counting on me. I'm not letting her down by letting you in.
SPIKE: So it's the fear of getting caught, then, is it?
BUFFY: Reason number one on a very long list.
SPIKE: Needn't be an obstacle.
BUFFY: Spike, I mean it. Come on.
SPIKE: I hear you're serious. So am I. I want you ... you want me... ...I can't go inside, so ... maybe the time is right ... for you to come outside.
(Spikes pulls her around behind a tree and she lets him)
