Love at first sight

The moment he laid eyes on her he knew she was his. It was love at first sight. His eyes trailed slowly down her body taking in every exquisite curve, the sleek, powerful lines. He had to have her, simple as that. He was drawn, enthralled, towards her, until he was within touching distance. Mesmerised by her beauty he reached out tentatively.

“Uh, uh, uh. Hands off the merchandise.” The salesman stepped between them, eyeing him quickly before sneering dismissively, “Why don’t you just move on. I’m sure you’ll find something to your taste down at Budget Ben’s used cars.”

*****

She handled like a dream, just as he’d known she would. His hands caressed the steering wheel as he planted his foot. He’d just take her for a little spin, he mused, breathing deeply to savour the rich scent of the new upholstery. Later he’d head back, pick up Dru and find something to wash the bitter after-taste of the salesman out of his mouth. For now there was just him and his girl and the long stretch of road before them.

I just knew before I got to the second paragraph. Spike's true love. Absolutely adorable. Though not quite as adorable as Patti's William.

Thanks sweetie! I'm glad you liked it... and yeah, I HAD to do one with the Desoto in it! Couldn't resist...as you said his true love! lol.

Patti's William is completely squishable isn't he!? *loves that fic*

Very squishable William.

Out of all Spike's 'girls' the DeSoto definitely gave him less grief than any of the others.

Nice! Take that snooty car salesmen! And nice in a way to have the freedom of being a vampire (want, take, have) against the freedom of the open road.

Thank you! LOL... you know I love the way you manage to find things like that in fics that the author wasn't even aware they were doing. And yeah, stupid, stupid car salesman. I am glad you enjoyed it!

Bwahaha. Love it. I guessed about halfway through the first paragraph that it wasn't really a woman he was looking at, but didn't figure out what until you revealed it. I love evil Spike - that salesman didn't have a hope of survival getting between him and the car.
