Prompt #378 from Tamingthemuse- Loop

Note: From now on most of my Tamingthemuse stories will be named as the challenge.

Xander and Thomas had Commando playing on the plasma television but neither were really paying attention to it. They were both hoping Spike was alive. Xander more than Thomas of course. What would he do without Spike? There was no way that he could live if Spike didn't come back to him. Thomas was more concerned for himself. What did he know about taking care of a human other than what Spike told him to do?

Both almost missed hearing the front door opening. What they didn't miss what Spike falling onto the floor. Xander jumped over the back of the couch almost doing a face plant. He made it to Spike before Thomas. "Spike? Spike, can you hear me?" he asked as he rolled Spike over onto his back. Xander gasped as he saw the open wounds seeping with blood. "We need to get him to a hospital!" Xander said to Thomas.

"Pet," Spike said with a pained chuckle. "I don't need a doctor." He looked at Thomas. "Go get me something to eat."

When Thomas left Xander somehow managed to get Spike to his feet and looped his arm around his waist. "Let's get you to the couch." Xander ended up all but dragging Spike to the couch. As gently as he could he laid Spike down. Spike's blue shirt was covered in blood. "Oh God."

"Shh, not as bad as it looks," Spike lied. Too bad Xander could tell when he was lying.

"Bite me," Xander said as he pulled the collar of his shirt down. When Spike shook his head no Xander continued. "It could take Thomas hours to find someone for you. You need blood now. Please, Spike." Tears welled up in Xander's eyes. "I love you."

Spike grabbed Xander by the collar of his shirt, pulled him down and kissed him. When Spike released Xander's lips his demon façade was in place. "I love you too, Xan." With that said Spike sunk his teeth into Xander's neck.

Xander gasped and his fingers dug into Spike's arms. His eyes fluttered shut as he felt the pull. "Spike," he said with a sigh.

Forcing himself to stop drinking Spike pulled himself away. His yellow eyes faded back to the beautiful blue color that Xander loved so much. "You all right, luv?" Spike asked concerned that he took too much.

"I'm fine," Xander said with a dopey smile.

"I might have taken a bit too much. You'll be fine after a good night sleep," Spike replied with a chuckle. He pressed a hand to one of his wounds. It was almost closed up. A bigger snack and he'd be back to his old self.

Xander slumped against Spike. "You're going to be okay, right, Spike?"

"I will be thanks to you," Spike said as he brushed Xander's hair from his eyes. "Now close your eyes a rest. Everything will be better in the morning."

When Xander dozed off Spike juggled to have them switch spots. He watched as Xander snored. Xander was the most gorgeous creature he'd ever seen and he was thankful to everything that is unholy that he was able to get back to him.
