Title:  The Deepest Cut
Pairing: Angel/Spike
Rating:  R

 

His words were the deepest cut. 

 

“Get away from me, Spike…”

 

Slowly, the blonde vampire rolled from the bed and picked up his clothes from the floor.  He looked over his shoulder, holding the garments in front of himself like a shield.

 

“Not what you said when you was fuckin’ me just then.”

 

“I never wanted you, Spike,” Angel snarled.  “You’re just a means to an end.”

 

Spike nodded in understanding and then slowly made his way to the door.  He knew deep down that Angel loved him.

 

A sire loved his childer unconditionally.

 

They did, yeah? 

 

Didn’t they?

Title:  Feast Day
Pairing:  William/Angelus
Rating: R

 

William took Angelus’ lead and tore into their host’s throat, helping to drain the chubby aristocrat before they sat down to the sumptuous feast set on his table.

 

Darla and Dru had left to visit the Master, leaving the duo to fend for themselves and it had been a while since the two vampires had partaken of a good, square meal befitting royalty.

 

After dinner, as Sire and Childe sat together in front of the fire, relishing the taste of a fine brandy, Angelus raised his glass.

 

“Who needs women,” he slurred, then pulled a willing William into a kiss.

The Gift

Pairing:  Spike/Buffy

Rating:  G

 

Spike stood in the shadow of the oak tree outside Buffy’s house watching as she and Dawn decorated the Christmas tree standing in their front window. 

 

 He sighed as he threw down another half-smoked cigarette, adding to the pile already at his feet.

 

Reaching into the pocket of his leather duster, Spike touched the small package that he had painstakingly wrapped in tinfoil and red ribbon, then dashed to the porch and dropped his offering to the slayer inside the mailbox.

 

A tear ran down his face as he hurried away.  He was a monster, but she treated him like a man.
