A.N. Hello! *waves shyly* I'm new to writing BtVS fiction. So please be nice.
Chapter 1
"Spike! C'mon! It can not possibly take you this long to get ready!" Xander yelled from the bottom of the stairs.
"Yeah, yeah comin'. You bloody impatient idiot." Spike mumbled to himself. He was trying to pack everything he would need for a weekend of camping. Xander and him had had it planned for a couple months now. Now that school was finally done and they had graduated, they wanted to take a trip by themselves.
Xander and Spike had met their junior year in high school. They may not have known each other very long, but they clicked from the get go. Spike moved from England when his dad got a job teaching at the local college. Spike hadn't really wanted to make friends. He was still convinced that his dad's job wouldn't last and that they could move back real soon. Xander had been the one to break through Spike's hardened shell.
Spike wasn't exactly sure what to make of Xander when he first met him. He was extremely friendly. Maybe too much so, but there was something about him that Spike instantly liked. They quickly became friends and have been friends since then. They often make fun of each other, but both know that neither of the two mean it.
The day high school ended was the best day in both of their lives. They were so excited about the camping trip. They both loved the outdoors. Xander was the one who made Spike learn to love it outside. Living in London was always dreary, but here in Alabama, things were actually pretty nice. Nice mountains to look at and the southern hospitality is always nice too.
Now they were getting packed to go on their highly anticipated camping trip. Spike, as usual, decided to wait till the last minute to pack.
"Okay. Flashlight, clothes, sleeping bag, tent, bug spray, ten pairs of socks, and CD player." Spike nods his head. "Yeah that should be everythin'." Grinning at having finished, he grabs his stuff and runs downstairs.
"'Bout time you finished." Xander said in a stern voice. "Was gettin' ready to leave without you."
Spike grinned charmingly at his friend. "Oh you know you wouldn't leave without me. I'da bloody well kicked your arse if you did."
Xander chuckled lightly. "You coulda tried, but you know that I can take your ass down!"
Spike looked at Xander shocked. "Oh so you wanna go?!" He threw his stuff down. "C'mon on then you bloody baboon! Let's go!" Spike started hopping around with his hands up in a boxer like way. Xander just stood there for second before he started laughing at him.
"That was good!" He pants for breath. "I don't think I've ever seen you do that! Haha!" Xander had to bend over to catch his breath. Spike just stood there and waited for him to stop. Xander wiped his eyes when he was finished laughing.
"Whew! Thanks man I need that." He chuckles lightly.
Spike gives his a wry smile. "Glad to be of assistance."
Xander looks at Spike oddly. "Why are you in such a good mood? Don't think I've ever seen you jokin' around like that. You're always like, 'I'm the almighty Spike! Look at my beautiful arse!'" Xander said trying and failing to imitate Spike's accent.
Spike grinned lightly.
"I do not sound like that." He said then paused for a second. "But I do have beautiful arse don't I?" He grinned widely when he saw Xander roll his eyes.
"C'mon!" Xander said to a laughing Spike.
They made their way to Spike's old and beat up DeSoto, and put everything in the trunk. They then got in Spike's car. Spike reached in his back seat for his CD's.
"No! Please no! I can not listen to punk rock the whole way there. I'll end up jumping out of the car before we're there."
Spike smirked at him and put in The Ramones. He turned up the volume as loud as it would go without the speakers cracking. He then started to head bang to it. Xander scowled at him and covered his ears. Spike laughed at him and pulled out of his driveway.
They finally arrived at a campsite a few miles outside of town. The campsite was not entirely flat land. It was a fairly mountainous region. It wasn't exactly a family camping area. There were hazards all over the place. It was more for people that wanted to really rough it.
That's exactly what Xander and Spike wanted to do.
Spike pulled into the parking lot and parked his car. Spike and Xander then walked up to the camp ground office to sign the release forms. All they simply said was that they were not responsible for any injury, blah, blah, blah, and that you couldn't sue them.
Once that was done, Spike and Xander got back in their car to find a nice spot. Spike found a small stream and decided that it would be as good a place as any to stay. It was only mid afternoon, so they had a couple of hours to put up their tents.
Spike had an EXTREMELY difficult time setting up his. While Xander got his put up in 20 minutes. Xander decided to just sit and watch Spike attempt to put his tent together. He just sat and listened to Spike yelling several strings of British obscenities.
A half-hour after Xander got his tent up; Spike had finally managed to get his up as well, though slightly crooked. It was still daylight and they decided to do a little exploring.
They followed the stream for a long time before they came across a fairly large lake. They didn't linger there long though. They just merely noted its presence and continued on through the woods. Xander was thoroughly enjoying being out in the wild like this. While Spike was cursing again for forgetting to put on his bug spray.
The woods had started to get extremely thick. Thorns kept on getting caught on their pants. Xander noticed a clearing up ahead and tried to make his way through even faster. Once in the clearing Xander stopped in awe.
"Whoa.."
Spike finally got through as well and kicked angrily at some thorns that dared to stick on him. "What is so bleedin'..oh." Spike had finally looked at what Xander was lookin at.
Before them stood a huge mountainous pile of rocks. Not really all that great a thing if you can't see it for yourself. But when you have to crane your neck up real high just to see to the top. It's a spectacle to behold.
Spike nudged Xander in the ribs. "C'mon let's climb it!" Spike said excitedly.
Xander rubbed his ribs where Spike nudged him. "I don't think so man. It's nearly dark out. We should get back."
"Oh come on! Do be such a nancy boy! It'll be fun. We still have at least an hour and a half-left before sun down! We can get up there and down with time to spare."
Xander still looked doubtful. "I don't think we could. That's pretty steep."
Spike sighed in exasperation. "C'mon! We're going." He then grabbed Xander's arm and ran over to the base of the rocks.
"Right then you go first." Spike said stepping back and giving Xander some space.
Xander looked at Spike incredulously. "You gotta be joking! This was your damn idea, and you want ME to go first?!"
"Well, yeah. No hurry up the sun's getting' lower."
Xander sighed and slowly made his way up. Carefully putting his hands and feet on rocks that didn't look too loose. "Don't follow directly behind me. Go off to the side. These rocks are not exactly that steady."
Spike obviously not listening just said, "Yeah sure okay." Spike the followed directly behind Xander.
Spike wasn't even a quarter of the way up when it happened.
Xander's foot knocked loose a loose rock.
Xander looked back as he felt a rock come free. It was a huge rock heading straight for Spike.
"SPIKE!!!! LOOK OUT!!!!" he screamed.
Spike looked up just in time for the rock to hit him scare in the head. After that everything went black for him.
A.N. K I know there is no Buffy. She's comin' soon. I've had this friggin' story in my head for sooooo long. I'm just dyin to know what people think. Please review and let me me know what you think.
