Tacos and Fred
Wonder Series
p>by Prentice (slyprentice@yahoo.com)
Pairing: Spike, WinifredNote: Slight AU. Summary: Is there anything better in the world?*****Tacos and FredHe doesn’t really know why he decided to go out, other than the fact that thepoof was staring daggers at him for insulting the princess bint. He doesn’t
really remember what he said but apparently it was enough for her grandness to
throw a fit and refuse to work. But, he’s here now, wandering the sewers and
trying to think of a way to pass the time before it gets late enough so he can
slip back in. Not that he had anything pressing to do. Peaches never let him do anything
other than some boring arsed book work and, if things were bad enough, go out
and kick some ass. He loved a good fight. Nothing got his undead heart to
beating again like a spot of violence. Well, there were a few things...Spike sighed, plucking the fag from between his lips and flicking it away in
disdain. He was in the mood for tacos. Not the ones that whats-his-face bookish
type had brought the night before. Those had been awful. He’d bet a good bit of
dosh on not even a Vulgular demon would eat one of those. And that was a feat
since they bathed in sewage and ate even worse. Another sigh escaped as he looked at the slime encrusted tunnel walls around
him. He’d had to throw the tacos out after having sat in the hallway all
afternoon untouched. Not even Fred, iron stomached petal that she was, would
touch them. Probably because the smell coming off them. Spike’s eyes tracked a string of green-ish brown slime that was sliding down
the wall. He had ended up having to run out and nick some fresh ones from a Taco
Express van. Luckily, the nearest decent Mexican food restaurant had been less
than a block away so grabbing a bag or three from the back of the van while the
delivery boys dawdled had been too easy.Suddenly, the blonde haired vampire grinned, remembering the slight pause in
mumbling from inside the “forbidden” room as petal Fred had rustled through the
bag and then the sweet silence. No mumbling, no scrawl of her marker. Nothing
but her humming contentment as she downed an entire bag of extra large cheese,
bean, beef with extra hot and spicy sauce tacos. He’d have to remember she liked those. Maybe tonight he’d nip something for
dessert for them as well. That was one thing he noticed none of the fang gang
did. Never brought her anything sweet. Nor anything to drink.He frowned. What would she want to drink? Margarita? Went along nice with the
cuisine even if it was pre-packaged and reheated. His frown twisted into
disgust. To close to the bloody bags of pig like lunchables that he had to eat.
He sniffed in disdain. How bloody undignified was it for William the Bloody,
Childer of the Scourge of Europe have to eat little bags of Mr. Oink? Spike
sniffed again. How long had it been since he’d tasted the warm sweet nectar of real human
blood? Spike licked his lips unconsciously. Too bloody long, that’s how long and
all compliments of peaches. Fucking hell. Plunging his hands into the pocket of
his duster, he continued walking on, changing directions abruptly as he came to
a fork in the tunnels. If he remembered correctly, this was the general
direction of the Taco Express. He’d have to back track later if he wanted to get
dessert from a little bakery he’d seen on the way in. It had been a place that
reminded him, disturbingly, of one of his favorite bakers in London, Madame
Aligors‘. She made butterscotch cookies that had made you want to cry. Too bad
she was long since dead. Maybe this baker had something similar. He was sure
Fred would like them.Fred. Spike grinned again. Maybe he would talk to her tonight. Maybe.
Reaching into his duster, Spike pulled out another fag, lighting it up quickly
before taking a drag. Damn. He really wanted some tacos now. Tacos and Fred.
Nothing better in the world.
