Summary: Post - Intervention. Dawn pays Spike a visit.

Spike groaned when he heard the crypt door open. After the torture from Glory, he'd hoped to be left alone for a few days, at least. Both of his eyes were unfortunately too swollen for him to see who his visitor was. But he could still recognize the scent.

"Nibblet?"

He was surprised to feel her hand trying to support the back of his head. Against his lips he felt what seemed to be a straw.

"It's blood, Spike. Better drink it before I get too grossed out," Dawn whispered. "And don't thank me, okay?"

Spike somehow managed a grin. "Whatever you say, bit."
