Summary: It's a Spike and Faye fic, but does everything work out between them or is it just there emotions going haywire after the accident; it has been a long time.

Chapter one: The Hospital

'Ow, wow why do I hurt so much' I try to lift myself up off the ground with no prevail. 'Damn it what happened?' I hear sirens, lots of people talking around me and lots of screaming. 'What happened to me?' I try to open my eyes but I'm too weak to even do that.

Then I hear voices familiar voices, they start talking and it's about me.

"What's wrong Jet? I got your message, something about Spike."

"That's right what took you so long?"

"I was going after a bounty."

"I said this was an emergency and you had to wait till you found him?"

"Well sorry, but we are really low on cash and I haven't had food for two days, a girl needs to eat."

"Well we have a much worse situation on our hands."

Jet seemed worried I wonder what could be so bad that he had to call Faye out for.

"Yeah and what is that?"

"Spike, he got himself into a fight."

"And how is that a much worse situation?"

"He's hurt badly I haven't been able to talk to the paramedics yet though."

"So who was the lunk head after anyway?"

"Vicious."

His name why did he say him I don't remember going after Vicious. Maybe that's why I'm lying here and maybe that's why I'm in such pain. I start to feel hands all over me there all talking to each other about my condition and nothing they are saying makes sense to me its all in doctor code, but I ignore them and continue listening to Jet and Faye.

"So what happened?"

"Well the doctors have seen Vicious already; he is in no condition to be walking around though."

"Which means what exactly?"

"He's dead, Spike killed him."

"Really, Spike killed him, so how did he do it then?"

"I don't think that's our biggest worry Faye."

"Well sorry for asking I just want to know some facts, you did interrupt me on a mission."

"I said it was an emergency."

I then heard footsteps they were walking away from my body, they stopped then he started talking.

"I'm afraid I have some bad news for you."

"What sort of bad news?" It was Jet he sounded terrified of what the answer he would receive.

"Your friend Spike?"

"Friend what planet do you come from he is far from my friend, maybe Jets but not mine."

"Faye, please just let the man finish, yes doctor please continue."

"I'm afraid to tell you that he did not make it."

What I'm dead this can't be happening I have to tell them I'm still alive. I try to lift myself up but I can't my muscles are in to much pain and I can't even move my mouth to make a sound. This is not happening this must be a dream any minute now I will wake up with the TV remote in my hand watching a bad soapy.

I flinched and my eyes finally open but when I looked around there were no police cars, doctors or crime investigators. Where was I? What happened?

The room was white it gave me the creeps to know I have been sleeping in this room. Maybe it was all just a dream maybe I didn't die I was just imagining it all that's it imagining it. Then I started examining the room a bit more, there was a small window that I couldn't even see out where I was lying. I looked up and a ceiling fan was spinning around it didn't sound like it would be staying up there much longer either. Then I looked at where I was actually lying, I was in a bed with blue and white sheets I ripped the covers off and I had a dark blue gown on that tied up at the back.

"Spike you're awake I was starting to get worried. I can't believe your alive it's amazing."

"What are you talking about Jet?" Maybe it wasn't a dream "What happened Jet tell me everything?"

"Don't you remember Spike? You killed Vicious."

"I did, didn't I. That's right I won, I remember hearing that he was dead. But what about me I heard a doctor say I was dead too."

"That's right Spike, you died."

What I died, then why am I sitting here now with Jet, maybe he is dead too. "What that doesn't make sense then how can I be here now?"

"Spike you have been in this hospital for over a year in a coma, they were able to bring you back, it took a long time but you made it through."

No that can't be true I don't even remember coming to the hospital.

"Are you alright Spike, you look kind of pale."

"Yeah well I did just find out that I died."

"Sorry I guess I'm not thinking straight."

"What are you doing here anyway Jet?"

"Well they rang me on the bebop and told me that you might be waking up soon, so I came down and I have been waiting for about two weeks for you to wake up. It's great to finally see you again, moving and all."

"What about Faye, I heard her, she was there too."

"Yup, when I found out that you were hurt I called Faye and told her it was an emergency she came late of course she was on a mission; we have been low on food."

"So I've heard."

"So what's it like to die?"

"Do you really think I'm in the mood to answer that question Jet?" I swung my legs around so now they were dangling off the side of the bed.

"Hey Spike, what do you think your doing? The doctors said you still had to stay in bed for another 3 weeks at least, to get your strength back."

"Well after being in a bed for a year don't you think I have had enough rest already?"

I put my feet on the ground, I cringed at the pain, it hurt a lot to even to sit up, Jets right I can't walk yet I still need to get my strength back, but I'm sick of lying in bed.

"Come on Spike just get back in bed," he walked towards me helping me lye back down.

"I'm so hungry, have I not eaten for a year either?"

"They feed you through a tube I think, but I'm sure you want some solid food."

"Yeah, well then go get me some."

"Don't worry I got Faye to go get some food, it was actually for me and her since we caught someone and got a nice load of cash."

"Well can she hurry I'm starving?"

"Sorry Spike but she might be awhile she has been a bit down in the dumps."

"Why?"

"I don't know Spike, have you ever thought that she might be a little bit upset that you died and then got put in a coma for a year."

"Why should I care, she said she isn't even my friend."

"How did you know she said that, you were dead?"

"Yeah well I thought I was to but I heard you guys talking in my dream."

"Well sorry you had to hear that Spike, but she does care."

"And what makes you think that?"

"She doesn't sleep much now."

"So, since when did I ever sleep?" I thought about what I just said, I have been sleeping for a year so that was a stupid question to ask.

"What I mean Spike is that she has been doing some bounty hunting."

"Well that's not any surprise she is always hunting to spend it all at the casinos."

"Spike she has been hunting to pay for you to stay in this hospital."

"So she has been paying them to keep me here so I don't have to come back to the ship?"

"No Spike so that you can get well you had quite an expensive operation and she paid for most of it, I did help out of course."

Why would Faye do something like that for me, she isn't even my friend and she is spending truck loads of money on me to stay alive. Wow is Faye actually trying to be nice, no that would be weird.

"Sure whatever, so anything interesting happen while I was out of it?"

"Nope just the usual bounty hunting and you have become famous for killing Vicious too."

"Why would I become famous for killing him?" Then a familiar voice interrupted it was a women's. I turned around to face the door, it was Faye she had a bag of groceries in her hand, great she brought food finally.

"Because Vicious was well known in villain word, you lunk head, so now all the bad guys with bounties on their heads are scared of you, and by the way welcome back."

Wow she looks like crap, Jet was right about her not sleeping the bags under her eyes were huge. Her face was drowned of any emotion and she looked like she would break in half, she looked like a twig she really hadn't been eating.

"Yeah thanks."

"Heads up." She called as she threw me a bottle of coke. So much for solid food. "Can I have something edible not liquid."

"All I have are hot chips." And did she think that was bad, god doesn't she know I haven't been eating, ok more like drinking crap for a year.

"Well pass am over." She walked towards me, she was sort of walking side to side like what you would do if you were drunk or something.

"Faye are you ok, maybe you should go see a doctor, I mean this is the perfect place to do it." I hope I didn't look that bad when I was dead, she was really pale, not even a glimpse of colour, her lips were even pale.

"No I'm fine just eat the chips already." She dropped the chips on my lap but on the way walking back to where she was sitting on the window sill she collapsed on the floor.

"Faye, quick, Jet, get a doctor!" Jet ran out the room and got a nurse that was close by.

The nurse came into the room and saw me on the ground next to Faye.

"Are you ok sir did you fall out of bed?" the nurse said to me saying it slow like I couldn't understand English or something.

"It's not me with the problem, she collapsed."

The nurse looked at me and then at Faye her eyes grew wide at the site of her.

"Wow why hasn't she been taken to see a doctor already?"

"Yes Jet why?" I looked at Jet, to say it was his entire fault for not going to see a doctor. I help Faye in my arms to keep her warm, I felt her fore head and she was burning up which was no surprise.

"Nurse, Can you just get a doctor?"

"Yes of course sir." She ran out the room leaving Faye in my arms, my legs were killing me I was lucky even to get out of bed to help Faye. I can't believe Faye did this to herself it's not like her to let this happen.

The nurse came back with a doctor that was a bit out of breath, trying to run to get here as fast as he could.

"Stand back," he said, I wanted to punch him in the face does he really think I can move right now. He repeated what he had said again.

"Look I can't move I just got out of a coma and this is the first time I have actually walked so far."

The nurse came towards me and helped me back on my bed, she started to examine my legs for any bruises that I may have caused for walking sooner then I should have been.

"Your lucky you didn't damage your legs." I groaned, like I care about my legs at the moment.

"And the girl is she going to be ok?"

The doctor had carried her out of the room as I asked the nurse; she just looked at Faye as she left with the doctor and looked back at me.

"We are going to examine her now." She left the room in a hurry and then Jet came into view.

"I told you, you shouldn't be getting out of bed but I'm surprised that you put yourself at risk for Faye."

"It was hardly putting me at risk, it's not like I could have killed my self for walking."

Jet just smiled and sat back down in his seat.

"I'm sure she will be fine."

"Yeah well whose fault is it for not taking her to the doctor?"

"Look Spike I hardly even saw Faye that much she was always gone."

"Hunting?" Jet nodded his head, I guess this was sort of my fault if I never got into this mess Faye wouldn't be working this hard to try and keep me alive.

"Maybe you should have just let me die out there Jet."
