Drucilla lay on the table of the factory, writhing in pain. Spike watched her worriedly. He hated to see her suffer. He knew that it was a human emotion for him to want to protect her, but he couldn't help feeling it. The Judge had said that they reeked of human emotions. Jealousy, Anger, Love even. He frowned. He didn't want the world to end. He had kinda grown to like his existence as a vampire. Even if the slayer made it difficult for them. She could always be killed. He'd killed two other before her. Just got to hit them where it hurt.
Drucilla giggled and pointed up at the ceiling. "I can see the stars and I am naming them." she whispered madly.
Spike rolled his eyes and sighed. He was used to her madness. "You can't see the stars. One, that's the ceiling and two its daylight." He said, his voice sounding bored.
"Yes I can," she said, her finger was moving from one imaginary star to the next as her eyes searched the star field that only she could see. "I have named them all. But I have named them all the same thing, and there is a great bit of confusion." she said laughing.
Spike sighed softly. 'God she's finally gone bonkers.' he thought. "Anything new on Angel?" He asked as he took her hand and held it against his lips.
Drucilla nodded her head and sat up, her feet kicking back and forth as she giggled. "Our boy will come home soon. And he's bringing a guest... a new little friend to join us." She said. She stood up and twirled around the table, her arms outstretched towards the stars she had just been naming. "The stars told me so, before they started arguing about who was who. They said he's going to be back tonight..." She looked at Spike and let out another mad giggle.
Spike half hoped she was wrong and he was going to stay away. He had gotten used to being the leader, and was not ready to relinquish power to that man. 'Boo hoo... I've got a soul, I don't want to be evil. Bloody wanker.' he thought, rolling his eyes. "Let's go and rest to prepare for the arrival of our guests, Dru." He said, holding his hand out to her. She took it and walked along next to him, towards their bedroom. She helped him into the bed and curled up next to him. He twirled a piece of her hair around his finger as they slowly drifted to sleep for the day.
