Chapter Six

“Spike has a beating what!?” Willow said so loudly that Giles and Xander were sure the entire hospital could hear her. Outside the common area a nurse passed by giving the three a disapproving look before carrying on with her work.

“What exactly does that mean for the spell” Xander asked, clearly as confused as Willow.

“I honestly have no idea” Giles said as he removed his glasses and pinched the bridge of his nose. “but I do know that we have two Spikes running around.”

“As if one wasn’t bad enough” Xander mumbled as he put his feet up on the common room’s table. “And at least one of them has it in for Buffy.” The same nurse who had glared them down earlier appeared again just in time to give Xander the evil eye. Quickly Xander removed his offending feet placing them back on the floor.

“We need to talk with Spike, or whoever is upstairs in that bed.” Giles said getting to his feet and walking across to room “We’ll only know what we are dealing with when we discover exactly what he is.”

Spike stared as Giles Willow and Xander entered his room. Emily rolled her eyes and prepared herself for more work. As far as she could tell the only thing that was going to result from this was more IV’s for her to replace and a patient who would be harder then ever to calm down.

The three surrounded Spike with Willow and Xander on each side of him and Giles at the foot of the bed. Xander looked like he would gladly kill him if he even so much as hinted at a wrong answer, but as far as Spike could tell the other two were willing to hear him out. No doubt they were looking for the answer to his beating heart. Well they would just have to get in line Spike decided, he wanted to know first.

“So, Spike” Willow said shooting a look at the little nurse who was determined to remain at the door to Spikes room. “Anything unusual happen lately?”

Spike thought that Willow had completely gone out of her mind this time. Anything unusual? The whole bloody thing was unusual. He was a Vampire, hooked up to heart monitors that were giving off sounds from a heart that was actually pumping blood. To top it off he was lying in direct sunlight and not going up in flame. What part of the usual did the little witch think was left here?

“Perhaps it would be best if we discussed this in private” Giles said clearing his throat and shooting a glance at Emily who was still standing watch over the door.

Of course Spike thought, how could he have been so stupid. He couldn’t exactly talk about vampires coming back from the dead in front of Emily without ending up in the phyc ward. Thank god Giles had said something before he had opened his big mouth.

“Emily, it’s alright” Spike said flashing his best smile at the protective nurse “They are actually friends of mine” He stopped to glare at Xander before he said something that would cause the girl to stay. “They just want to make sure I’m alright, could you maybe give us a few minutes to talk?”

“Alright,” Emily said giving the three visitors a look that told them not to mess with her patient. “But not too long. After that fiasco downstairs you need to get some rest.”

“So,” Willow said seating herself on the bed beside Spike. “Start at the beginning and don’t leave anything out.”


A/N Anyway so i'm finally back after months in the hospital. You would think that that would have given me plenty of time to write the rest of this story but frankly i was too sick to do anything, so you will all just have to bear with me for a little while. Sorry for this extreamly short posting but i wanted to get this story back up and running!! Hope you enjoy and please review!
