Hey Peeps, thanks for all the comments. They're super sweet.

Disclaimer: All hail Whedon

Pretty Spike.

"Hello princess. Did you have fun shopping?" Spike asked as Drusilla climbed into his lap.

"Ooo yes. The clerk was sweet; he tasted like cakes and honey. Wanna taste?" She asked melting her lips into his.

"Yum." Spike grinned

"I bought things to make you pretty." Dru chirped removing peroxide, black nail polish and enough gel for an army from one of the bags.

"Oh no Dru, I'm not one of your bloody dolls." Spike scowled.

"Spike..." Dru whined her eyes as big as saucers.

"No, sorry pet."

"I wanna play." Dru shot to her feet and stomped her foot. "I worked really hard, and now you won't play." The water works hit. "Mean William, MEAN!" She wailed falling to the ground.

Spike bent beside her frantic "No, No baby, I'm sorry."

"Mean." She sniffled.

"Your right, I'm a bad bad man. Come on Dru, let's go make me pretty." He smiled drying her eyes.

"You'll play?" She grinned

"Anything to make you happy luv."

"Yay!" She beamed pulling him towards the sink. "Sit." She ordered pointing a finger at him.

"Yes Dru."

"Good boy." She smiled as she worked the chemicals through his hair.

Spike tried desperately to not cry as the dye burned his scalp. "I think we're good sweet."

"Ok." She clapped shoving Spike's head under the tap causing him to splutter. "Silly Willy, you're not supposed to drink it." She sighed shaking her head.

"Silly me." He mumbled when her water torture was complete.

"Ooo, pretty. She giggled.

So what if the big bad looked like a poofter. It was worth it when he saw the joy dance in Dru's eyes. "What's next sweetheart?"

"Pretty colors." She said holding the polish while her smile got wider.

"That's not half bad." He admitted examining the first nail she painted.

"See? This is fun!"

"Yeah, it is." Ok, not really, but it wasn't AWFUL.

"There." Drusilla said admiring her handy work.

"All done?" Spike asked hopefully.

"Almost." She said before grabbing the gel bottle and emptying most of it on his head. "All done!" She announced after working it through.

Spike examined himself in the pool of water in the sink. "Only real men can wear nail polish and still be a badass."

And that my friends is how Spike's metro sexuality began. R&R PLEASE?
