Pathetic Attempts

Note: okay so this is only the second
fiction I have ever typed from my notes. I have tons of notes, but only my good
ones make it through the filtering process. This isn’t all happy. It is rather
angsty. But it is very well thought out. And although it starts slow, it picks
up, especially whegel gel makes his reappearance. If you like this please read
my other one under the crypt. I update both of those as often as possible, but
I have beesy lsy lately. Another thing if you don’t review me I will think you
aren’t reading it. My other has only 6 reviews. They are all good, but why
should I keep up such a long and detailed story if only 6 out of thousands of
people are reading it.

Chapter 1

 

“I don’t see what the big deal is Spike. You never want
to do the romantic thing. It’s not in your nature. It’s in mine, and you hate
even the idea of, so why are you whining about this?” Spike was whining. He
wanted to be romantic, and do the whole candles thing, and maybe even a gold
knife instead of the usual silver. That was Spike’s idea of romance.

“Because it’s our anniversary and
it is special.” He pouted.

“Since when is it special?” Xander
crossed his arms.

“Because it’s been four years, and
well…I just want to, sod off.”

“Don’t freak dude. I was just
wondering.” He looped his arms around Spike. “It’s just so unlike you. What’s
up?”

“Truthfully… I just want to
surprise you. We’re so boring. Have you ever noticed that? How boring we are?”
Xander shook his head. “Well face it pet, we are.” Xander thought about it for
a minute.

“Then we just have to change things
a bit. If you really look at us closely, which you shouldn’t, then you would
notice we have a very specific routine. We’re like woman. Oh god. We’ve turned
into Willow and Ta Xan Xander smacked himself on the head. He and Spike fell on
to the bed laughing.

“With one big exception pet,”

“Oh yeah, what?”

“I thought that was obvious. We
don’t have a daughter named Jamie.” Oh yeah. The whole guys can’t have
babies’ thing.
Spike looked at him as if it was the most obvious thing in
the world. Xander revised his recent thought and voice, “we could have.” Spike shot
him a don’t go there again look. He can be such a…poufter sometimes. He’s
lucky I love him so much.


“So what should we do to make this
more interesting?” Spike asked.

“Well we could change our sleeping
patterns. That’s a start. It could be amusing.”

“You mean sleep at night. I think
not pet.”

“No. Not quite challenging enough. How about whole
days. Or at least staying awake. We could stay awake 2 full days, and sleep 2
full days, or even 1 day, and sleep 2 days. It could be fun, and it would be anything,
but boring.”

“Alright. You’re on. We’ll try it
for 2 weeks. How’s that sound?”

“Good. Let’s sleep now though. Ya
know. Get a head start. How about we sleep until this time tomorrow. That
sounds good seeing as the sun just set. You won’t mind missing one night will
you?”

“Nope. I’m still kinda sleepy
anyhow. Set the clock. We’re not aloud up till it starts playing that awful
music that we don’t know how to change, even if we are awake. Got it pet?”

“Yep.” And the two of them lay
down. This is never gonna work. Good idea though. Go Xan-man. I
hope this whelp knows we won’t last 2 seconds, ah well we can try.
