Betrayal- Spike and Drusilla's Aftermath

By Shattered Faith

Drusilla spread herself out onto her new luxurious bed. "oo . .Spoike, it's so soft .. " She cooed, running her nails up and down the bedspread. Toby grinned from ear to ear, and Spike narrowed his eyes towards him warningly. Toby ignored him. Drusilla sat up and looked at Spike thoughtfully.

"Spoike .." She smiled flirtatiously. "Will you do something for PrinCess . .??" Spike raised an eyebrow.

"What do you want, Pet?" He asked.

"i want you to go out an' get me a new birdie . .one that will sing .. for it's mummy . . mm .. ?"

"Ducks, if you want a bird that will sing, you'll 'ave to feed it." Dru lowered her eyes in a mockingly pouting expression.

"Oi'll feed it. . Oi promise. . " Spike smiled.

"Alright, Daddy will go and get you a birdie. But I want you two stayin' in for the rest of the night. I don't want either of you to get torched because the new boy forgot about sunlight, you hear?" Drusilla nodded obediently.

"Oi'll stay 'ere. . " She glanced over at Toby. Anger boiled up inside Spike. The last thing he wanted to was leave Drusilla and Toby alone together for the whole night, but at the same time he wanted to please Dru. If it was a new bird she wanted, it was a new bird that she was going to get.

Spike straightened out the collar on his coat and walked over to Dru. He placed a gentle hand upon her cheek. "Don't be getting into any trouble, alright Luv?" Drusilla giggled.

"Oi'll be good .. " Spike smiled and kissed his Princess on her forehead. He turned around and walked out the door before he could change his mind.

Drusilla narrowed her eyes as she watched Spike leave. She clapped her hands in excitement. Finally, the Mean One was gone. Drusilla turned eagerly to Toby, who licked his lips. He hurried over to Dru and sat down on the edge of the bed.

"So, where are you from?" Toby asked her. Dru giggled softly.

"Oi'm a PrinCess . . " Dru cooed. "From the stars . ." Toby grinned.

"So, what's up with you and that other one, Spike?" Dru frowned and her eyes became dark.

"Oi don't loike 'im any more." She quipped. "He used to call me 'is Black Goddess .. mm .. but then, 'e tried to 'urt me . ."

"How did he hurt you?" Drusilla laid on her stomach, resting her chin on her hands.

"When Oi was a girl .. Oi met a vampire named Angel." She closed her eyes briefly. "'E killed Moi family, moi friends . . an' then 'e made me into a vampire." She paused. "He gave me Moi Spoike . .so Oi would 'ave someone to love me.

"Me an' Spoike were in Prague .. when a nasty mean mob tried to 'urt me. Spoike stopped them .. but Oi didn't feel well. We went to the Hellmouth to make me better, an' the Slayer was there. Moi Spoike said he'd kill the Slayer, 'e promised me. But, 'e didn't. Then Moi Angel came back, and Spoike. 'e was jealous. Of Moi Angel. So . ." Drusilla sniffed in pain. 'E teamed up with the Slayer. . to make Moi Angel gone all gone. 'E was bad so bad . ."

Toby leaned forward and cupped her face in his hand. "Only an idiot would betray and hurt a beauty such as yourself." Drusilla looked up at him with large eyes.

"So you think Oi'm pret'y?" She asked. He grinned.

"Oh yeah. You're definitely gorgeous." He said to her. She lifted her hand and ran her nails lightly through Toby's hair.

"Spoike wouldn't loike it if you were this close to me .. mm . " Toby snickered and sat up, taking Drusilla into his arms.

"Well then, we'll just have to be even closer, now won't we?" Dru grinned maliciously, completely understanding what he was implying.

"OO o o . . " She leaned forward and lightly kissed him, letting her fang graze across the bottom of his lip. She ran her nail down his cheek. "So you loike me .. ??"

"Oh yeah." He mumbled, already moving on to other conquests.

Drusilla sat up in the tangled sheets and peeked out the window. It was still night out. She sighed to herself as Toby rolled over, mumbling in his sleep. She didn't even really like him. He wasn't smart, he wasn't especially cute, but there was one thing he could do. He could make Spike incredibly jealous. Drusilla liked that. She liked it a lot.

Toby leaned over and put his arms around Dru's bare waist. "I love you .. " He whispered. Dru falsely smiled back at him, but didn't respond. She slipped out of his grasp and out of bed, shivering as the cold air hit her even colder skin. She slipped back into her dress, and Toby sat up in bed staring at her.

Just then, Spike walked in the door. "Pet, I have your new bird .." He exclaimed excitedly, holding up a cage with a parakeet in it. Dru smiled.

"OO o o . ." She tiptoed over to Spike and took the cage into her hands, staring at the bird with interest. "Does it sing. .? Mm. . .?" She asked.

"Yes, it sings." Spike said. "Just remember to feed it, Luv." Drusilla smirked. Spike glanced over at Toby in the bed, and his eyes darkened and narrowed. "Was he sleepin? Pet?" Drusilla's eyes darted from Spike to Toby and back to Spike.

"'E got sleepy. . the blood make 'im sleepy .. " She trailed off, not bothering to try and cover up the fact that she was obviously lying.

Spike bit his bottom lip. No, he couldn't let himself get angry. That's probably what she wanted. He had to remain calm.

"Alright, well the sun will be up soon and we obviously can't be goin' outside then anyway. So, what do you want to do today, Luv?" He asked her. She sighed and set the birdcage down on a dresser.

"Oi want to listen . .to Moi new birdie sing." She whistled and tapped the cage, and sure enough the parakeet hummed. She smiled with glee and clapped her hands together. "Oo o . . Do it again!! Do it again!" She pounded on the cage. Spike rushed forward.

"Now Ducks, you don't want to frighten the bird, do you? Be nice, and it will always sing for you." Dru tilted her head.

"Hm .. ?" She mumbled in protest, but did as Spike told her. For now.

Inside the small apartment, Toby paced back and forth around the living room. Spike was dully picking his nails, and Drusilla was still intrigued by her new pet bird. Spike was happy that it had pleased her, but something was amiss. He glanced at Toby again. What had they been doing that night? Something had happened, Spike was sure of it. And he didn't like it one bit. The cursed sun finally began to set, and Spike glanced over at Dru.

"Almost night again, Pet. What do you want to do?" She glanced down.

"Moi tummy is growly .. mm . " Spike chuckled. "Then we'll go out on a hunt as soon as possible. I want to explore a bit too, see if there are any more vamps around. Get a better feel for this place." He looked over at Toby, forcing himself to keep an even tone. "So mate, who bit you?" Toby shifted his weight.

"I was walking home from work one night, I used to manage a record store down the street. Anyway, there was this blonde chick who was looking, well, pretty good. She motioned me into an ally, well, it's not like I was about to turn her down. So she starts kissing me, then sure enough sinks her fangs into my neck. The next thing I remember was waking up in a graveyard and you two. That's all I know." Spike sighed with frustration.

"So, you have no idea who these other vampires are, how many, or where they're staying?" Toby shook his head.

"No, not a clue." Toby said uninterestingly. Spike rolled his eyes.

"Well, looks like we have more than one kind of hunting to do, then." The three vampires waited impatiently for the sun to finish setting, and then they were off. Spike looked up at the moon with concern, and then over to Dru.

"Spoike .. " She said, slightly shaking. He rushed over to her.

"What is it .. ? What do you see .. ?" Dru stopped shaking and mildly giggled.

"Oi see .. lots of tasty meals . .mm . . Oi do .. " Spike shook his head.

"Where, Luv?" He asked. Suddenly, a child rushed past the three, and Toby grabbed him by the back of the collar. He began to scream but Toby clamped his hand over the child's mouth, and wasted no time at all in sinking his teeth into the child's neck. He drank quickly and sloppily. Drusilla smiled approvingly at him.

"So you want to try something noice. .?" She said, and Toby nodded. Making sure Spike could see her, Dru hurried over to Toby and pressed her lips harshly against his. She dipped her tongue into his mouth and closed her eyes, enjoying the residue of blood still in his mouth from the kill. Spike looked at them in horror.

"DRUSILLA!" He yelled, and she pulled away and wiped her bottom lip. She lowered her eyes and smiled sheepishly.

"Sorry .. Oi wanted a taste of the li'l child too . ." Spike rushed over to her and stroked her hair.

"Pet, you know I don't like you kissin' other men." Spike grinned.

"Now, does Daddy get a taste?" Drusilla nodded, and Spike pressed his own lips upon hers. Drusilla raised her nail and ran it down his cheek a bit, causing a small cut. She broke the kiss and leaned forward, lapping up the blood droplets. Spike smiled. "There's my Princess." He said, and shot a look of seething hatred towards Toby. Toby didn't shy away, instead he returned the look just as defiantly. That made Spike mad. What right was it of this fresh vampire to think he could get a piece of Dru? Dru was His dammit, His! No one, vampire, demon, or other was going to take her away from him.

Spike walked protectively close to Dru as they wandered about town, seeing nothing of particular interest. They began to wander into the outskirts, and finally Spike spied a dank looking house in the middle of a field. He raised his eyebrows. "Oh, now there's a culprit." He stated, and led them closer to the house. Spike squinted, looking carefully at the shades over the windows. "Oh yeah, definite vampire material." They carefully walked up to the door, and after looking around, Spike tentivly knocked. A blonde vampire opened the door and looked at Toby, smiling.

"I knew you'd find me." She said. Spike looked at her confused, thinking for a moment that she was talking to him.

"I had no idea you lived here, actually." Toby said. "We were just walking about, trying to locate other vamps." The blonde looked at him quizzically.

"I see you have guilt in your dead eyes." She commented, peering over at Dru. "What have you done?"

Toby's eyes darted nervously back and forth, and he tried to remain calm. "I haven't done anything!" He stammered, trying not to raise his voice. "We've just recently had a kill, if that's what you mean." Spike sighed, tired of all this small talk.

"Can we come in?" He asked. The blonde nodded and stepped aside. Spike walked in, Dru and Toby trailing close behind him. "So, who do you kill for fun around here?" He asked, taking in the texture of the house. It wasn't very well kept up, but at least there were drapes over the windows and such, and the house itself was away from most other civilization. It was certainly do better than that apartment they had been in. The blonde leaned forward, taking in the sight of Spike.

"Are you William the Bloody?" She asked him. Spike sat back, mildly surprised.

"Yes, I am."

"I remember you from a while back. You killed a Slayer." Spike beamed. Ha, someone finally was going to give him the due credit he deserved!

"But, 'e couldn't kill the last one." Dru said, narrowing her eyes. "E made friends with her .. " Her voice trailed off. The blonde sat up again.

"Friends? With a Slayer?" Spike sighed.

"There's a lot more to the story than that." He said, shooting Dru a warning glare. He wanted to stay here; she didn't need to go ruining things for the both of them! The blonde cleared her throat. "Yeah, that would be nice."

"The others are out on the hunt, but they should be back shortly. I'm sure you'll be able to tell them lots of impressive stories." She added. Spike gulped.

"I'm sure I will." Lauren glanced over at Drusilla.

"And this is Drusilla. .. " She said in awe. "Didn't you just kill a Slayer?" Dru grinned from ear to ear and nodded. "Wow, well I'm very pleased to meet you." She shook Dru's hand. "Let me show you to one of our rooms .. " She trailed off, and lead Drusilla elsewhere. Spike looked over at Toby, fuming.

"Alright Pal, here are the new rules. You don't look at Dru, you don't touch Dru, and you Certainly don't kiss Dru. Is that understood?" Spike expected Toby to be slightly afraid, but instead the cocky vamp smiled.

"Why don't you tell that to your girl?" He licked his fingers. "You know what I found out last night? She's quite a screamer!"
