A/N:Well here it is, my next chapter, I hope you like it. I realise I'm switching back and forwards a bit, but hopefully when my brain starts functioning a bit better I can have a go at actually writing longer chapters :D
If there's anything you want to see in this story then PLEASE let me know and I'll try my hardest to give you what you want!
Oh and the next chapter, is going to be a trip back to the past, with William and Alex before he got ill (or supposedly ill, I haven't made my mind up on that yet)
Disclaimer etc. - See chapter 1
rating - pg-13
I'm not really sure with any ratings so if you think I'm doing it wrong let me know. But I think this story seems like a 12A to me (Brittish system) but correct me if you think otherwise.
Oh, I mention primary school once, no idea what it is called in America, but it's the thing after nursery.
Xander woke up surrounded by a large, warm body. He was sure it was a dream, Anya was still away on her girly holiday with 'Hally' so he resisted from opening his eyes just wanting the dream to go on a bit longer before he had to go on patrol and face Spike, especially after that dream he had had. The dream! Xander's eyes opened suddenly and they instantly met with a pair of ice blue ones.
"'Ello luv, had a nice sleep?" So he was back here. Again. It was too realistic to be a dream, yet obviously the situation didn't feel normal, it was like he was leading a double life, and some part of his brain, a tiny tiny part right at the back buried underneath all of his thoughts and expressions kind of liked it. He was here with someone who cared about more than lots of orgasms, someone that cared about him. Of course that was just the concussion talking and concussed or not he would never actually want a relationship with Spike, or William, whatever he was called.
"Yeah... ok" Xander had decided on his 'Game Plan' he was clearly in a mental hospital because they all thought that he was, well mental. So first things first he needed to get out, then after that he needed to look around this world or dimension or whatever it was and find the solution to stop him from visiting it in his sleep, or whenever it was. But to do that, it meant they would all have to think he was sane, which he was, most of the time, and that meant he would have to go along with them, and it would probably take a while for them to believe him.
He would have mentioned all of this to Buffy and Willow before, but he didn't want them to think he was crazy, like the people in this world obviously did, and he definitely didn't want to have to mention the fact that he had dreamed about a version of Spike kissing him, so he was just going to have to play it by ear and hope he could sort it allout by himself, without anyone else's help. He could do things by himself, he had done before, like the last trig test they had taken before highschool ended, well blew up, it had taken his own initative to copy Larry who had been sat next to him, not that had done much good, Larry was almost as bad at Trig as he was.
"You ok pet? You seem to be away with the fairys?"
"What?"
"Lost in your own thoughts, mind wandering a bit"
"Oh right sure, I'm fine"
"He seems better today, less confused" Once again Xander had been to wrapped up in Spike, William, too notice the doctor's presence in the room. He had already decided, however that he didn't like the doctor, the stupid idiot seemed to think he was death or something, always talking about him as if he wasn't there.
"Alex? Do you know where you are?"
"I'm in... hospital" He had been tempted to say he had been stuck in the looney ward, but he thought better of it, probably wouldn't go down to well with Mr. lets-ignore-Xander.
"That's right, and do you know why you're here?" The doctor had bent down and his nose inches away from Xander's, talking slowly as if to a small child.
"Because I'm.." Mad? Unstable? Insane? "ill"
"That's right and we're here to make you better" The doctor continued in his slow, primary school voice, he was just about to say something else when his beeper went off. "Right well I'll have to leave it there for now, I'll try and pop back around later" The doctor turned around and left, closing the large white door behind him.
"I know you don't like him Alex, but he's a good doctor"
"What? No I never said that I think he's" an annoying patronising idiot who thinks he knows more than everyone else "quite nice"
"Oh come on pet, how long have we known each other? I can read you like a book, it's ok though, I don't like him any more than you do luv, and you'll be well soon enough so we can leave him and his hospital behind us" Xander nodded in agreement though he wasn't actually listening to much that had been said after the rhetorical 'How long have we known each other' question, his mind began to wander, how long had Alex and William known each other, what was their relationship? They must be pretty close if William didn't seem to thing holding him in his arms and cuddeling was anything out of the ordinary, and not to forget the kiss, lets not forget the kiss. He was hungry for information and he wanted to know everything about the him in this world.
"What's up? Something wrong?"
"No, I was just wondering... Could you tell me stuff, like the things I've... forgotten, about us?" He turned his head around to face William a hopeful look on his face and he saw William's eyes lighten up at his request.
"What kind of things pet?"
"Well just anything, what was it like? A normal day?" William looked thoughtful for a moment before pulling Xander a little closer and staring at the blank wall opposite them, and then opening his mouth and starting his story.
