Ch 4 Do I know you? Yeah you do!
Spike eyes bolted open. His room was pitch black. He was sure he heard something move in his room. Being sure not to give the interlouper a clue that he sensed, Spike reached for his gun. Damn, he hadn't put it back after his fight with Faye. Spike cautiously looked about his room. His eyes had adjusted to the dark, but the only thing he saw was a reddish- orange circle of light opposite his bed. He reached over the end of the bed and felt his gun. He smirked to himself in then grabbed his gun and jumped up and reached for the light string above his bed. As the light clicked on Spike started to put some pressure on the trigger and quickly, aimed at the strange small light he'd seen in the dark. Startled at what he saw he fell onto his bed and scratched his head.
"You love her." Said the oddly familiar stranger.
Spike saw his own image in the mirror. He was dressed up in a white tux and smoking, he shook his head. Did I hit my head and not feel it?
"No, you didn't hit your head. I'm just here to tell you that you're gonna lose all over again if you don't wise up. I swear we can be such an ass sometimes."
"Damn I need a cigarette." Spike dropped his gun and reached over to his dresser grabbed his lighter and smokes.
"That'll do you no good."
Spike turned his head and his dressed up twin was know sitting on a chair by the dresser. He got up and dusted himself off. "Hi," he extended his hand.
Spike looked at him and then the odd white dressed man grabbed his hand. "I'm you. I'm just the you you never listen to. I'm here to tell you that you gotta fix this. The whole Julia escapade was not your fault. She made her choice. For get her. She has obviously forgotten you."
"Shut the hell up! How the hell would you know!"
"Hello!? Is anyone home." Said the well dressed gentleman and as he did he knocked on the Spike's head.
"Knock it off." Spike swatted away the other man's hand
"Look. When are you gonna realize that Faye's the one you want."
"When hell freezes over, that's when."
"What happened earlier? A lapse of commen sence mixed with momentary retardation?"
"I was horny and she was in my room."
"Hmph. Keep telling yourself that. But you know as well as I do that she's the only women whose been able the match wits with you."
"I'm just sinking to her level that's all."
"Punch for punch and kick for kick, you know she's the only one you want."
"No, I don't."
"Why are you so hostile about it? Admit it, she drives you nuts and you love it!"
"AAAUGHGHG!!!" Spike screamed.
Spike swung a fist at his white tux clad self but, his doppelganger dodged it. A quick maneuver, a spin kick came at the half dressed Spike. The two men fought and each one skilled so well blocked and weaved all attacks. After about twenty minutes of struggling both have their hands wrapped round each others necks. With teeth gritted the white tux clad Spike spat out "Give it up and listen will you?"
"No!" grunted his twin.
With one hand the white clad gentleman gripped tighter to the half dressed Spike and he released one hand and was ready to land a hard blow but the man in the choked hold grinned and suddenly heat filled the dressed mans genitals. Letting go of his nemesis' throat his hands bolted down to his testicles. They throbbed in pain. Both men gulped for air and the one in way more pain rolled in a fetal position. Spike still taking deep breaths and now half bent over said," I will never ever let her know that I love her."
"But. you.do... love her" choked out the still in pain man on the floor.
"Yeah, I do." Spike wiped away the sweat that was beading up on his brow. He extended his hand to the man who laid on the floor. Reluctantly the man took it and now both men stood. And in unision the said," You look like shit! So do you!" Both men let out a hard laugh but quickly winced in pain as their injuries let them know they were still fresh. The two men sat on the bed and sighed. "Just tell her before she leaves. If she leaves again, she might not comeback." said the tux wearing man.
"I'm not that lucky. She always finds her way back." said Spike as he lit a cigarette
"You really are stupid!"
"What?" he said as he exhaled.
"This is your last chance. She's not gonna take your shit. She'll tell you where to shove it. Quit, telling yourself that you know the real folk blues. You won't know them until you lose her."
"Shut up." He took a long drag and then stared at the floor.
"Look just tell her you love her. Oh, and make sure she feels too."
The dressed man stood up and lit a cigarette and walked out of Spike's room. Spike laid down and sighed. "How am I supposed to do this!!!!" he screamed and closed his eyes.

Jet was watching the latest episode of big shot for a new bounty. He watched and wondered what the hell Spike had been dreaming. He had looked in on him last night and saw him choking himself with his own hands. ~~ Man he needs thereapy , ~~ is all that crossed his mind. Faye walked in and looked at Jet.
"Faye I just got a new bounty for you."
"Why not send Spike?"
"He's on the injured list. Besides Ed will find out some info and boom your off. I'll even give half the 10 million woolong bounty to you."
"That works."
Twenty three minutes later Faye took off into space.

Spike stood in the shower and let the freezing water wake him up. He dressed and walked into the kitchen and opened the fridge. Astonished he found food he grabbed some bread. He started to toast it a second later he heard light foot steps enter the kitchen then humming. He turned his head and saw Ed lurking over the toaster. "Can Ed have some?" She asked.
"Sure. Just let me finish toasting it."
Ed sat at the table pounding her fist and sang, "Ed is gonna eat with Spi,spi! Spi,spi's gonna eat with Ed!" Spike shook his head and got out two plates. He buttered the toast and placed a few peices infront of Ed. The two ate quietly. Jet watched from the door way and grinned as he walked in and got a drink of water.
"So, Spike feeling any better?" Jet asked.
"Yeah, I'm still a little achey though."
"Well just rest up. Hey what was all the rucuss with you and Faye last night?"
"Nothing, just usual stuff. I hate her she hates me. I guess it's all good."
"Ed knows different."
Both Spike and Jet looked at the insane child. She had a small twinkle to her eye and she raised both eye brows and looked at Spike.
"Shut up and eat Ed." Spike ordered.
"No continue. Tell me what you know." Jet teased.
"Spike person kissed Faye, faye!"
"What!" Both men screamed.
"Ed saw it happen last night!"
"Geez, this fucking kid is nuts!" exclaimed Spike.
"Nope not freaking nuts, Ed knows all. Ed saw it all!"
"That's the last time I make toast for you kid!"
Spike sat there fuming and trying to finish his toast. Jet and Ed looked at him. Jet could tell that Ed's comment had to be the truth. Usually Spike would've had a snappy comeback, but not this time. Jet stood there and watched Spike squirm uncomfortably.
"You gotta crush on me quit staring, Jet. I know it's been a while since you had a woman."
"Hey now! You're too Skinny and you smoke that's such a turn off!"
Spike rolled his eyes. "You clean up Ed. Besides I need to finish working on my baby."
"You're still recovering. Just go sit and relax. You'll get to work on her later."
"Hey where's Faye anyway?"
"Out," said Jet as he walked to the living room. Spike followed the older man.
"What? When did she leave?"
"About three hours ago. Are we a little concerned?" Jet joked.
"Did she say where she was going?"
"No. I know where she is."
"Where?"
"She's after a bounty. I sent her this morning."
"Ohh."
"Why?"
"No reason. I just owe her something."
"Is there some truth to what Ed said back there?"
"You gotta be kidding. The kid's crazy."
"Spike..." Jet gave the just give up and tell me the truth tone.
Spike sighed and plopped down onto the sofa. He lit a cigarette, took a puff and told Jet about the incident between Faye and himself. Then relayed the tale of his weird fight he had with himself in a dream.
"So that explains what I saw."
"What you see?" asked Spike.
"Nothing," then Jet shook off his comment
Spike sat there looking at Jet for some help. "Just do what your conscience told you to do," Jet offered.
"C'mon, Jet, we're talking about Faye here."
"Be sincere. Tell her how you feel. Straight out, lay it out on the line. That's the only way my friend."
"There is still one other thing."
"Yeah, I know. Her right?"
Spike looked over at Jet and nodded.
"I don't know. What the hell I'm gonna I do." asked Spike.
"Spike, ask yourself, did she really choose me? Or did she just run away from her problems?"
"It's been three years you'd think I'd know the answer. I might've done the same thing if I was in her shoes."
"No, I think you would've taken her with you. Not left her behind."
Spike puffed on his cig and just laid his head back. The two men heard a small beep and then Fayes voice came over the intercom. "Jet, I got him. I turned him in and got the bounty. Now open up this God forsaken heap of scrap cause I need to rest."
"Alright." Jet muttered to himself then winked at Spike. "Go open the doors for her and take a chance."
Spike stood up, he took a deep breath then walked off towards the revolving chamber that took him to the hanger. He stood at the small control center and opened the doors
