"Hey how you feeling?" Buffy smiled at the sexy vampire laying on the bed drifting back into consciousness.
"Better Luv, now that the bloody chip's out of my head."
"Good because you look kind of destroyed and I was worried you weren't alive in there."
"Takes more than a doc with a knife to do me in."
"Plus there's no dust just a very sick vampire who needs blood." Buffy sighed as she sat down next to him and started helping him drink a cup of blood she'd brought in from the kitchen.
"That's HUMAN." Spike gasped. "That's SLAYER."
"Hey I figured that if human blood would help the healing process that the blood of a Slayer who has healing properties would be even better. The donor was very understanding, said something about being worried about the love of her life."
"Did she?"
"Spike, I don't know what I'd do if I lost you."
"Never going to happen luv."
"Well I think I'll stay in here with you until you get better anyway."
"Thanks for everything. When I got that headache I was so shocked I couldn't think straight."
"It was nothing."
"It was everything."
"Feel well enough for a kiss?"
"I think I'll survive"
