A.N: Been rewatching ATS season 5 (which I love by the way) and this is just something that came to me after watching "Hell Bound" Drabble. Spike/Fred friendship. Enjoy

"There are worse things…that being a ghost." He said softly, with a slight tilt of his mug. Fred smiled at him and he smiled back at her, placing the mug back on the desk. "Right then!" he cried out, clapping his hands together as he turned towards her. "Yeah. I guess I better get back to work." She replied pushing herself off from the desk. "Sod that." He muttered and swept her up into a hug. "Spike!" she yelped as he grinned into her hair. "Told you there was a hug in your future." She laughed and returned the embrace, pushing off of him. "Since when can you tell the future?" she teased. "It's one of the ghosty tricks I picked up. Like right now…" he paused, pressing two fingers to his temple. "A dashing, devilishly good-looking, exceedingly sexy vampire is about to take to take you out for ice cream as a thanks for all your troubles." She passed him with a giggle. "You mean Angel's free?" "Oi! Take that back!"
