Chapter 12: Who needs sleep?
After Spike's twentieth trip to the bathroom, he came back to find Faye awake playing solitaire again.
Faye said, "God Spike, you look like you got hit by a truck!"
Spike said sarcastically, "Gee, thanks for the compliment, sleeping beauty."
Faye blushed at Spike's last remark, although it was sarcastic. Faye said to herself, 'Knock it off Faye you're an adult not a school girl.'
Spike then said, "Is that all you do all day, or are you still playing the same game?"
Faye could tell Spike was tired and grumpy, pushing off Spike's question she said, "You look tired Spike, why don't you go to sleep?"
Spike gulped down more coffee and said, "I can't alright, and stop telling me what to do!"
Faye looked at Spike's face and noticed huge bags under his one eye. Faye asked, "Spike, that dream you had earlier, you never told me what it was about?"
Spike said, "Yeah, so?"
Faye said, "It must be pretty bad if you don't want to face it."
Spike just sat there. Faye said, "Not going to sleep isn't going to make it go away, Spike, but I'm sure you know that."
Spike was still silent staring at the ground. He felt Faye's hand on his shoulder, he looked up.
Faye said, "Come on, Cowboy, let's go to your room. You don't have to tell me just please go to sleep."
Spike spoke up, "Why do you care if I don't sleep?"
Faye answered, "Because your annoying when your tired."
Spike smiled, "I'm not the only one."
Spike then felt Faye pull his hair, "Ow, Faye that hurts. If you want me to sleep that bad fine."
Spike got up and went to his room. Faye followed him until Spike suddenly stopped and said, "I can tuck myself in, mom!"
Faye said, "I'm not leaving till you're asleep."
Spike sighed and said to himself, 'What did I do to deserve this?' Spike went into his room and lied down turning to face the wall as soon as Spike closed his eye his dream flashed in it.
He bolted up and said, "I can't Faye."
Faye said, "You can't what?"
Spike said, "Sleep."
Faye said, "Why the hell not? You mean lazy Spike doesn't want to sleep?"
Spike gave her a death stare and said, "For one I'm not lazy and two I'm not scared…I'm…" Spike thought, 'I guess I am scared. Wow, there really is a first time for everything, huh.' Spike lay back down and closed his eye trying to face it but once the dream progressed he could feel pain again.
Bolting back up out of bed, sweat starting to form on his forehead. Faye just watched and said, "Geez Spike, what are you dreaming about?"
Spike said in a low voice, "I don't know why I have it, but last time I had this it was when I lost my eye. It had to do with…the operation…I know it's stupid but I can feel it."
Faye said, "Why don't you try not thinking about it." Spike looked at her as if her head were about to explode, "I mean don't think about it, face your dream as a dream."
Spike scratched his head, "You lost me."
Faye sighed, "Never mind, Spike, just go to sleep." She pushed him down and Spike closed his eye. The dream played again and the pain returned but this time he could feel the pain slowly ease as he felt a hand caress his hair and cheek. The dream disappeared gradually after that.
************************************************************************
The next morning Spike awoke to find Faye asleep on a chair next to his bed. He got up and picked her up placing her in his bed. He put the covers over her and kissed her cheek and said in a voice so low only she could have heard it, "Thank you, Faye." Spike put his hands in his pockets and walked out to face Jet's cooking.
*Well hoped you liked that because it was the last chapter. Pretty bad ending, huh? Well don't worry I'm going to write an epilogue to wrap up the story. I'll save my goodbyes for then. Thanks for reading this chapter, please read and review. A special thanks goes to those who have reviewed so far and continue to, you're my motivation for continuing this story. Thanks, so long for now. *
