The Declaration

"Oh, yeah, Spike, yeah! Like that! Harder... faster... just... yesssssss!"

Xander's orgasm removed any and all control he had over his brain and mouth and they immediately took advantage of the freedom, even as he slipped into a post-coital daze.

"Love that. What you do to me. Love it. Love... you. LoveyousomuchSpikeso..."

Spike was still frozen in place, arms braced on either side of Xander's head and slowly softening cock still buried deep within sleep-relaxed muscles, when Xander's eyes fluttered open a little while later.

"Spike? You okay? You look kinda freaked."

"You... You said..."

"..."

"I... Oh. I did, didn't I? Do, even. I mean... I do. Love you. Didn't mean to say it. Not now. Not yet. Didn't know how... or even if... But, yeah, I do. Love you." Deep breath. "I love you, Spike."

"..."

"Spike?"

Worried by the continued silence, Xander moved, one hand reaching up to brush a thumb over laxly parted lips and then further, combing through tousled white-blond curls.

"Spike?"

"You... You said..."

"Yeah, I did. So...?"

"You... love me?"

"Yes, Spike. Xander Harris loves William the Bloody. And now he's wondering how Mr the Bloody feels about him...?"

"Still here, aint I? Soppy git."




The Confession

"Um... Guys, there's something I... We... Um... Yeah, okay. Deep breath, and just... out with it. No stalling. No beating about the bush. Enough of the pre- whatever... varication! Prevarication. That thing I'm not doing because...because that would be silly. And irritating. And I so don't want to..."

"Luv?"

"Spike! I thought you were in the car."

"I was. For twenty minutes. Decided I'd better come and see if you'd gotten lost or something."

"No! No, I'm just... uh..."

"Trying to figure out how to tell them you're shagging the undead?"

"No! Just... Yeah."

"Kiss me. They'll figure it out."




The Reaction

"Good Lord!"

"Oh, Goddess, Xander, what are you doing?"

"Willow, is this another one of your spells? Should I stake Spike?"

Tara smiles, content to watch the Scoobies watching Xander as he makes a valiant attempt at removing Spike's tonsils with his tongue. Hands wander, pet and grasp, and words are lost. The room falls silent except for muffled groans and heartfelt whimpers. None of the impromptu audience makes a sound.

Eventually Xander has to breath so Spike pulls back, and glances round the room in gleeful delight.

"He's mine. I'm his. We've been shagging now for weeks. Any questions?"

Fankoo. *smooch*

I felt in a soppy mood. ;o)

[vampirefever.livejournal.com]

Teehee
Lovely
:-)

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Thanks. :o)

[amejisuto.livejournal.com]

"He's mine. I'm his. We've been shagging now for weeks. Any questions?"

Great drabbles. I really love that line, you should make you an icon with that. It's too good!

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I might just do that. *g*

[moimoietmoi.livejournal.com]

Cute! And all of their reactions are so real!
I really have a thing for this "removing Spike's tonsils with his tongue". lol I love this expression!
"He's mine. I'm his. We've been shagging now for weeks. Any questions?"
Oh, yeah! Is there a video? :D

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

I love this expression!

Hee! Thanks. I figured it would have to be Xander doing to Spike, because otherwise the Scoobies would be sure that Xander was being forced into something. ;o)

Oh, yeah! Is there a video? :D

Oh, I wish! *g*

[toobusy2write.livejournal.com]

LMAO Loved these!

I can't even pick anything to quote, or I'd be cutting and pasting the entire post. LOL This line though, was definitely the best:

"He's mine. I'm his. We've been shagging now for weeks. Any questions?"

I agree with amejisuto, you should definitely make an icon with that. *g*

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Thanks! That line seems to have amused everyone. :o)

I might just go make some icons soon... *g*

[saifai.livejournal.com]

I love the progression there. The first part with the stunned silence, the second part with Xander babbling almost to himself, and the last part. *happy sigh* Loved Tara's reaction.

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Thanks. :o)

Tara knew already, of course, because she's the quiet one who watches and takes it all in. *g*

[willshenilshe.livejournal.com]

Way to tell 'em, Xander! *pumps fist* Oh, yes! As always, you just plain satisfy the Spander urge. Bravo on these!

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :o)

My Spander urge is never satisfied. *g*

[rubyblushu.livejournal.com]

I love the way Spike handles the outing of the relationship. It's so very Spike.

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Demonstrations are so much simpler than complicated explanations. *g*

[jstabe.livejournal.com]

You are just so good at these! Loved them all.

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

*smooch* Thankee. :o) I have fun writing them.

[spikes_heart.livejournal.com]

Sweetly snarky... delightful.

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Sweetly snarky

Just what I was aiming for. ;o)

Thanks!

[adis723.livejournal.com]

Loved all the Xander babble and word trippage! Just loved.

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

He's so much fun to write when he's babbling or saying stuff he didn't mean to. *g*

Thanks!

[umbralillium.livejournal.com]

*purrs with satisfaction* Ah! Got my weekend dose of darkhavens drabbles! *grins* "Kiss me. They'll figure it out." *watches mental porn vid* Yummy.

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Aw, thank you! I made you purr. Whee!

And yes, that vid has been playing here nonstop too. *g*

[authoressnebula.livejournal.com]

*squeals* That was lovely. Really, REALLY enjoyed that. First Xander confessing to Spike, and then both of them confessing to the Scoobs. LOVE that last line, and I'm with amejisuto; make it into an icon, 'cause...yeah. That's perfect. ^_^

~Nebula

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Thank you. :o) I'll probably iconise that line tomorrow. ;o)

[tabaqui]

Wheeeee!!
*bounce*
Love it.

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Thankee. :o)

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Yup. That's the way they came out this week. *g* Ta!

[nashmaveric.livejournal.com]

::snicker:: Love that last line ::grin:: And Xander's "Yes, Spike. Xander Harris loves William the Bloody. And now he's wondering how Mr the Bloody feels about him...?" too. ::snogs you and bounces off::

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

woohoo! *snog*

Ta!

[fanbot.livejournal.com]

Sweet!
I love it!
*snog*

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Yay! Thanks! *smooch*

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

How do you do it? Just...how? Brilliant. Spot on everytime. I think i'm slightly envious!

I loved these. Brilliant. I said that already. Very funny. Loved Spike's last line.

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Aw, thanks!

I have to make that line into an icon, don't I? *g*

[suki-blue.livejournal.com]

I insist that you do!

[but_can_i_be_trusted]

~~"He's mine. I'm his. We've been shagging now for weeks. Any questions?"~~

Well, that sums it up quite nicely. *starts laughing* And, yes, for goodness' sake, icon it!

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :o) I shall.

[yourlibrarian]

"No! No, I'm just... uh..."
"Trying to figure out how to tell them you're shagging the undead?"
"No! Just... Yeah."
"Kiss me. They'll figure it out."

Spike the planner, heh :>

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Hee! Well, he knows from experience that him and complicated plans just don't go well together, so he's aiming for simplicity here. *g*

Thanks!

[pet-23.livejournal.com]

I love the frozen Spike that was so cute.

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I could just see him balanced there, mouth open, eyes all anime wide, not quite able to believe what he'd just heard. *g*

[spikedluv]

"Still here, aint I? Soppy git."

"He's mine. I'm his. We've been shagging now for weeks. Any questions?"

I told you that Spike was romance personified, lol. These were great. Sweet, cute, funny, sexy.... Love it when you fit so much into/say so much with your drabbles.

[darkhavens.livejournal.com]

I told you that Spike was romance personified, lol.

He really really is. *g*

These were great. Sweet, cute, funny, sexy.... Love it when you fit so much into/say so much with your drabbles.

Thank you so much for all this lovely fb. I never knew squeezing an idea into 100 words could be so much fun. :o)
