Here's Aftermath, earlier then promised. I wrote this quickly today, so it isn't as good as it could be. But I wanted to get this up so I could concentrate on my next OC story, which will probably be Lou as the guy. Lou deserves more love, and he has no story about him at all. Parker has a few, so he can wait for a little while longer. If you have any idea or any requests for me, please let me know.
Again, huge thank you to speedlesweetie for all of your input.

'The wooden plank hit Alexis hard on the head, and she let out a slight gasp as she fell to the ground.'
Alexis turned in her bed, starting to sweat as Spike lay fast asleep next to her.
'The ropes dug into her wrists and ankles, making her whimper slightly in pain. Her head ached from where she had been hit with the trunk when she had been pulled out.'
Alexis whimpered, shaking free of her covers. Spike began to wake up, Alexis having hit him while she turned.
'He kicked in the stomach, the arm, the eye and the shoulder. She wanted to cry out but was afraid he'd hurt her more.'
Alexis was deep in the throes of her nightmare, tossing and turning restlessly as she cried out. Spike reached for her, pulling her close and murmuring her name. "Alexis, 'Lexis, its ok. It's ok."
'He pulled her roughly up the stairs and threw her against the chair, causing a cut on her forehead.'
"Alexis, wake up! Wake up!" Spike shook Alexis and she awoke with a gasp.
"Spike..." she murmured as she wrapped her arms around him. Tears slid silently from her eyes and she cried for a few minutes. Spike simply held her, cursing himself that he couldn't keep her safe.
She looked up at him a minute later. "I never gave up hope you'd come, you know." She told him, pressed against him for warmth.
Spike freed one arm and lifted her head with one hand. "I'm so sorry." At her confused look, he elaborated. "It's because of me that you were kidnapped. If you weren't going out with me then, maybe"
Alexis cut him off with a glare. "Are you trying to say what I think you're trying to say?"
He moved his hand to cover her mouth. "Let me finish." She glared at him, but backed down. "If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been hurt." He ran his thumb lightly over her healing lip and she fought back a shiver. "I understand completely if you don't want to go out with me anymore."
Alexis bit back a growl and pushed herself forward, pressing her lips roughly against his. She wrapped her arms around his neck tightly as he kissed back, just as rough.
They broke apart when they ran out of air, staring each other straight in the eye. "I'm never leaving you. Ever. I'm not going anywhere without you. I wasted enough time before, and I don't plan to waste any more. You're stuck with me, whether you like it or not." She glared defiantly at him.
Spike couldn't help the smirk that covered his face as he leaned forward to capture her lips in a passion filled kiss. "I don't mind being stuck with you." He whispered, his breath against her cheek making her shiver. "And I'll prove it."
