On with the story:
Spike sighed as he watched his boyfriend, his Xander as he slept. They had been together for two months now. They had already moved in together after Xander insisted that Spike should not have to live in a "moldy, dusty, crumbly crypt that smells like rotting people and dirty gym socks."
As he thought about Xander and him being together he realized that there were many complications. Xander's parents for one. They had they had taken to stopping by Xander's apartment and checking up on him. Spike had always been out during these check ups so there was not a problem yet, but he knew that eventually Xander's parents would find out about their son's relationship. When that time came, they would be in huge trouble. The Harris family in general was the biggest homophobes Spike had ever seen in his entire time on the planet, which was definitely saying something.
Another problem would be their exes. Spike worried constantly that Drusilla would pop up and slit the throat of any person that he was with just for her insane fun. She did have a nasty habit of doing that. And then there was Anya. Xander's most recent ex and a former vengeance demon. Spike was certain that Anya had turned to D'Hoffryn and begged him to restore her demonic powers.
Fortunately the only other prominent ex Xander had was the cheerleader currently living in Los Angeles with Angel. Spike was certain that she-whatever her name was because Spike certainly couldn't remember it-would be fine with Xander and Spike's relationship.
"What the bloody hell was the cheerleader's name?" Spike muttered quietly to himself. All of a sudden he heard a voice whisper in his ear, "Cordy."
Spike jumped as Xander answered the question that Spike had asked himself in a sleepy voice that hinted that he had just woken up. "Are you brooding again? Geez Spike, next thing you know we are going to have to buy you lots of hair gel and call you Angel." Xander laughed as he knew what was coming next.
"I'm nothing like Peaches!" Spike whined. "Of course not baby." Xander soothed the vampire, all the while still chuckling. Spike had recently confided in him that he missed having his Sire around to talk to when he need a father figure, but he knew that after all their fights, Angel would never just forgive his Childe. After all, their fights weren't just yelling. Last time they had fought it had been over the Gem of Amara, and Spike had shoved hot pokers in Angel and destroyed his home in search of the legendary gem.
All of a sudden Xander had a brilliant idea. "Hey, why don't we go to L.A. tonight and we'll talk to Angel. How's that sound?"
Spike nodded eagerly and got up to start fixing breakfast. As he was finishing off his mug of blood, he heard Xander walk down the hall. He then laughed loudly as he heard Xander try to just fall of the couch and miss and fall flat on his back on the floor. "Crap!" He heard Xander yell. "You alright Xan-pet?" Spike asked forcing the laughter away and letting his concern for his boyfriend's health take over. "Yeah. My pride and dignity are just mortally wounded is all." Spike chuckled, relieved that Xander hadn't been wounded.
"Well do you want me to make it better?" Spike asked, walking slowly out to where Xander was sprawled out on the floor. When Xander saw Spike he stood up and began to step closer to him, "Oh and how can you make it better?" "Well I can kiss it better. How does that sound?" At this point they were so close Spike could feel Xander's warm breath. "I like the sound of that." Xander whispered seductively, a smile tugging at the corner of his mouth as Spike wrapped his arms around Xander's neck. Xander leaned closer to kiss Spike when they heard the phone ring. "Damn it." Xander cursed and he reluctantly stepped away to answer the phone.
"Hello? Oh. Hey. I was gonna call you anyway. Me and S-someone wanna come and visit. My new....date. Two months today. Uh, well we have some things to do first so we'll be there tonight. Then you can tell me whatever you had to say. 'Kay. See ya then Cordy. Tell Deadboy and Wes I'm coming. Bye."
Then he hung up the phone and turned to face Spike only to see that he wasn't there anymore. He wandered around the house until he heard Spike's voice mixing with two others. 'Oh shit.' Xander thought. 'This is all that I need.'
