Spike and Angel sat at the table, drinking mugs of blood.

Spike crinkled his nose. "This is bloody awful. Does even compare to straight from the source." He grinned. "Especially a certain source."

Angel took a sip of the red substance. "Yeah, well this source is closed for refueling. Spike?"

"Yeah, pet?" Spike eyed the blood and made a face, but drank it.

"How were you so strong earlier? And, well you resisted the sire claim. I told you to do something, and you didn't."

"Don't know. Probably has something to do with the Powers. I kept my soul because of them, strength is probably another gift."

Angel decided not to pry any further. He finished his blood and took his cup to the sink. "What other powers do you think you've been endowed with?"

Spike stretched out and pushed the cup away. "Don't rightly know. I've never been much for research. Red looked into it, and that's how I knew I'd keep my soul. Maybe it time we pay her a little visit."

"Yeah, I haven't seen Willow in years..."

Spike furrowed his brow at the wistful look that passed over his mate's face.

"Something I should know, Peaches?" Spike asked slowly, watching his face for clues he might not want to offer up.

"I just... I ran into her a couple of years ago. We were both single, and miserable, so we... comforted each other."

"I think I've changed my mind. You don't get to see her again."

"William, don't you dare react like that. You were married, and it was just one night."

"I don't care. You got the look."

"Isn't that a Prince song?"

"Don't get cute," Spike grumbled.

Angel leaned against the table in front of Spike. "Can't help. These are the looks I was born with."

Spike pulled him onto his lap. "Pansy," he murmured as their lips brushed together.

Angel wrapped his arms around his neck and kissed him back eagerly.

Spike kissed his jaw and nipped his earlobe. "Still don't like the look you got when I mentioned Red."

Angel kissed his neck, tracing the mating claim mark he left there. "You're mine, remember?" he whispered.

Spike moaned and tilted his head to give his lover easier access. "And you're mine."

"So you trust me to see Willow again?"

"Fine, but if she seduces you, I'm kicking your ass."

"Deal." Angel kissed him again before jumping up and going to do dishes.

"Oi, that's not very nice!" Spike whined.

Angel shrugged. "Do you know how hard it is to get blood out of a cup?"

Spike moved up behind him, putting his hands on his hips and kissing his shoulder. "I'll buy you new cups."

Angel stifled a moan as his constantly horny childe ran his hands up his side. He ducked under his arm.

"No. Bad puppy. Down boy," Angel said, stepping back.

"Well you got the bad part right." Spike stalked after Angel, grinning hungrily.

Angel moved around the couch, putting the pieces of furniture between himself and the carnal delights promised by his lascivious childe.

"No, we have things to do. No more sex. Where the hell is your off button?"

"Mmm, it's in my pants, luv." He grinned salaciously at Angel. "What you have to do, you see, is wrap your lips around-"

"Spike," Angel interrupted him. "No."

"All right, I'll wrestle you for it. I win we screw, you win-"

Angel interrupted him again. "I know you. If I let you anywhere near me, we're going to screw. No. Bad vampy."

"Worth a try. Guess it's the hard way."

"What do you- Spike!" Angel cried out as Spike leapt over the couch and tackled him.

Spike buried his fingers into his hair and kissed him harder and unrelentingly.

Angel gave a token effort towards pushing Spike off, before giving in and wrapping his arms around his neck and kissing him.

Spike moved his lips down Angel's chest, nearing the prize hidden behind cotton sweats.

"Uh, guys?"

Spike's head snapped up and he looked at the red head who stood behind the couch.

"You know, Red, in civilized, unteleporting, society, people knock."

"Sorry. Liam called me, said he was going to kill uncle Angel for hurting his mom. I figured I'd see what went on."

Angel smiled at her. She was just as beautiful as she always was. Barely aged a day.

"I guess you know why Liam's out for me."

"Yeah..."

"It's nice to see you. You look really good."

"It's good to see you too. You look good too. Great. Really, really great."

Spike stood and grumbled under his breath.

Angel ignored his jealous childe and instead concentrated on Willow. "Would you like something to drink?"

"Sure." She dropped her voice to a whisper and leaned slightly over the couch as Spike disappeared somewhere behind her. "Is Spike mad at me about something?"

She jumped in surprise when Spike put his arms on either side of her on the couch back, and whispered hotly into her ear. "Heard a story 'bout you and my boy. Put all these interesting images into my head."

Willow swallowed and looked at Angel, who seemed to be seeing some images of his own, if the have dazed, heavy lidded look on his face meant anything.

Spike's breath brushed softly against her neck as he continued to whisper, "Think he still wants you, not that I can blame him. So pretty."

"Dammit, Spike, stop bugging Willow."

Willow didn't want to admit it, but she was more than happy to let him stay and continue. She always kinda had a crush on him.

Angel came to her and "saved" her from Spike.

"Let's go get you that drink. Spike, couch, sit."

Spike scoffed. "Like I'm ever going to listen to you. You sit, I'm not leaving you and Red alone."

Angel groaned and shook his head. "I shouldn't have turned you. You've become a pain in the ass."

"Only if you ask me, but it's rude with a guest here... Unless you'd like here to join?"

Angel blinked, pointed at a chair and ordered, "Sit," Before getting Willow a drink.

"I'm sorry about Spike. He's perpetually horny."

"Was he right?" Willow asked tentatively.

"What?"

"About You wanting me?"

"Yeah, he's always right. But I love him."

Spike spoke from his chair, leaning back and showing off his vampire hearing.

"Wasn't kidding about her joining us. Dru liked to bring other people into our bed. Wouldn't offend me. Always wondered' 'bout her anyway. Thought I should have taken her back when Dru left me the first time after Sunnydale."

"Really?" Willow smiled a little.

"Hell yeah. You're beautiful, Red, and I'm not blind."

Angel griped. "Now I'm getting jealous."

"Well, should answer my question. You two up to cure my curiosity?"

Willow nodded shyly Angel looked surprised. He looked at the two.

Angel shifted. "I guess... yes?"
