Feedback: Fine by me.

Disclaimer: I own nothing.

Notes: Does the conversation Spike has with Cecily sound familiar to anyone?

  Spike walked into his crypt and laid down on his tomb. He'd had a long night avoiding Harmony, slaying vampires, and fantasizing about Buffy. The way her hair shone when the moon shined on it (okay, he was a little in voyeurism), the way her clothes smelt after a long day (and he was a little into theft), the way her muscles clenched as she kicked a vampire in the head-

  "William?"

  Spike sat up and looked at the woman standing on the opposite side of his crypt. It couldn't be, but it was, "Cecily?"

  She smiled, "It's been awhile."

  "A lifetime."

  "Or two, but whose counting?"

  "What do you want?"

  She crossed the crypt and sat down next to Spike, "Oh, William, why do you hurt me like that? After all, you're the one who made me like this," her face changed to that of a vampire's, "So why wouldn't I want us to be together?"

  "Well, it was mostly payback. I didn't figure you'd last too long as a vampire."

  "Guess you were wrong. So, what do you say? Can we be together? Can you forgive me for how mean I was to you?"

  "Oh, Cecily," Spike shoved the stake into Cecily's chest and she turned into a pile of dust, "No."

  Spike laid back down on his tomb, shut his eyes, and slowly drifted off to sleep.

  The end.
