Just a short preview of a story I'm working on about Faye after Spike's "death". Hehe, there's a little hint of my plot. (Which I'm still iffy about, but whatever.)
AN: Okay so I DO have more done but I've been so busy lately I haven't had time to update this. I'm workin' on it though.

Faye looked at Spike hopelessly, tears filling in her violet eyes.
"You left us behind, Spike." She whispered.
"No, you left yourself behind," he answered quietly. "I only went away."
Faye shook her head, the tears spilling. "You left and then you never came back!" She fisted her palms against his chest. "You died for nothing, Spike! You stupid, son-of-a-bitch!"
Her anger was completely unfurled now, and she was wild with grief as she slammed her fists against him again and again.
"We could've helped you! Me and Jet..." Her efforts became half-hearted. "Instead you went alone..." She was still, her head down as she leaned against him. "You...you jackass."
And then he raised her face to his. His eyes and face were blank. He merely stared at her for a long time.
"You're the one who's dying for nothing, Faye."
********************
She bolted to life with jolt. Her whole body was stirring, her vision blurred and she could feel the warm tears on her cheeks. She raised one trembling hand to her face to catch the stupid salty water.
Damn stupid dream, she cursed violently inside her head. What good did it do now? Spike was gone.
And yet...he seemed so real. So real that she could just reach out and touch him...It was like he was really there.
Faye closed her eyes and tried to steady her breathing, but she heard his voice.
You're the one who's dying for nothing, Faye.
"Damn you, Spike." She whispered, the tears falling hard on her lap. "Damn you."
