Sharing a room

AN: you know i dont own it, so dont delete it. jesus i think disclaimers are retarded.

Spike had been gone for three months, almost four, but who was counting, really? No one expected him to be alive, and it hurt more than it helped to keep track of how long it had been since he disapered. Faye had left almost imeadeatly after Spike had, figuring she\'d be better off without the constant reminders, but she had bumped into Ed, who\'s father had left her again and decided that someone had to take care of the girl, and she couldn\'t do it alone. Faye and Ed moved back onto the bebop and things had been running fairly smoothly. Faye had given her old room to Ed and Ein, figuring that Ed was starting to grow up and was going to need a room of her own soon anyway. She had taken spikes room, though the only things she could bring herself to touch were the bed and the dresser she had put in the closet. She knew spike was dead, but she couldn\'t bare the thought of getting rid of his things.

Since Faye\'s memory had come back, she wasn\'t exactly the same person. Sure, she was still sassy, loud Faye, most of the time, but she was also kind, caring Faye, too. She didn\'t talk about it much, but you could see in her eyes that the hard part of her, the part that had made her seem like such a bitch had dissipated to a certain degree. Jet and Ed had chalked it up to her memory coming back, but it was something more than that. Faye missed Spike more than she cared to tell, and she was regretting not having been nicer to her when he was around. She liked the arguments they had shared, but a part of her was terrified that she had been just the push he needed to go trumping off to his death..

\"Faye-Faye!\" Ed yelled, running into the kitchen at full speed. for the most part she had given up on pretending to be an airplane and talking like a child, though when she was tired, she still rhymed on in full force. \"There\'s a bounty! His name iiissss...... Mortimer Delagringo! He\'s worth alot and he\'s at the Red Light Cassino. Jet said you could take care of this guy on your own and to have fun!\"

Faye smiled down at the girl with the bright red hair, amazed that she had just formed several complete sentences without making up any new words or rhymes. She got up and headed to her redtail without saying a word. There was nothing to complain about when a cassino was involved.


Faye had been gone for less than an hour when a familiar ship flew into the bebop\'s holding bay, and in came Spike Spegiel, looking really good, for a dead guy.

\"Spike!\" Jet bellowed, leaving the dishes he had been cleaning in a pile at the sink and trotting over to give the lanky man a hug. \"Long time no see, man. I\'m not even going to ask where you\'ve been.\"

\"You don\'t want to know, anyway.\" Spike said, a smug smile on his face. He had been fearing that Faye would be the first to see him and he would die before he got to see anyone else. \"So, where\'s the shrew?\"

\"Faye left a while ago.\" Jet said, neglecting to give any more information.

\"where\'re the kids?\" he asked, smirking at Jet\'s apron.

\"Ed and Ein are in their room.\" Jet said, heading into the kitchen to grab two beers.

\"Their room?\" Spike asked. *I\'m gone less than six months and already they\'ve thrown out my stuff?* spike thought to himself, rather bitterly. He had thought jet would have more faith in him than that.

\"Yea, Ed and Ein are in Faye\'s old room now.\" jet said, knowing that his responces were probably going to get him in trouble sometime in the near future. *serves \'em both right for always putting me through hell.* he thought smugly to himself. *they deserve each other*

Spike decided to take a nap in his room and then head out for a local bar. Apparently, Faye wasn\'t on the ship anymore, and he intended to find her again if he could, if only to make sure she was ok. But first thing\'s first. he planned on getting good and drunk before going back to the bebop and getting a restful nights sleep and heading out to search for the shrew in the morning.

~.~

Faye caught her bounty in what felt like the longest time it had ever taken to catch a bounty in the history of the world. She cashed him in and headed back for the bebop and bed immeadeatly after. She gave up on taking off her clothes, too tired to bother putting on pajamas she took in a deep breath, thinking that the room would never lose his smell. She sank into the bed and hugged the blankets tight around her. If she used her imagination, she could still feel his warmth in the sheets, engulfing her, making her feel like she was home, like he was still alive. If she used her imagination, she could pretend that he had finally given up on Julia and realised that there was something good right in front of him. She was using her imagination as she fell into a light sleep, falling into a dream where spike had come back after he left, instead of leaving her alone and lonely.

Faye rolled over as something long and hard and smelling slightly of whiskey and ciggarettes crawled into bed with her. She opened her eyes to see Spike\'s mismatched chocolate orbs staring into her tired jade eyes. *man, my dreams are getting realistic,* Faye thought to herself. *I could almost swear he was really in the room with me.*

Spike smiled at the illusion of Faye in front of him and wondered how he managed to fly himself back to the bebop with the amount of alcohol that must be in his system to make a fantasy seem so real. He smiled down at her, brushing a violet strand of hair out of her eyes, leaning in and kissing the corner of her mouth.

\"I miss you so much, Spike.\" Faye said, softly, as spike pressed his lips to hers, urging her to open her mouth to him.

\"I miss you too, Faye.\" Spike replied, running his tongue lightly across her lips, sucking her bottom lip into his mouth for a second before she parted them and granted him permission to deepen the kiss.


Faye\'s breath hitched in her throat. Kissing Spike had never been like this before. She let her tongue slip against his and reveled in the feel of his hands sliding down her waist and to her hip. He fumbled with the hem of her shirt and pulled it up off of her, \"you\'re so beautiful.\" he said, lowering his head to kiss her collar bone, her shoulder, leaving open mouthed kisses along the line to her breasts. One hand found a precious mound, just as his mouth found the other, sucking the rosy bud into his mouth and nipping it gently.

Faye let out a moan and pulled his head back up to hers and kissed him fiercely. She unbuttoned his shirt and pushed it off with his jacket, tossing it off to the other side of the room. She traced her hands along the lines of his chest, tracing muscles and scars and circling his nipples with her perfectly manicured fingers. \"god, Faye!\" spike moaned, thrusting his hips against hers, causing her to moan in response.

Spike kissed his way down past her breasts and stomach to the top of her panties. He slowly pulled them off, kissing all the way down to her ankles before kissing his way back up to her womanhood. He pushed her knees apart gently and inhaled her sweet scent, making him even more aroused. He couldn\'t handle it anymore, he bent his head down and burried it between her legs, snaking his tongue out and licking her slit up and down. He found her bud and circled his tongue around it mercissily, until she was quaking and screaming his name into a pillow she had grabbed at the last second and shoved over her face.

As she lay there, collecting her brain and mumbeling something into the pillow about this being the best dream ever, spike slid up her body, and tucked his head under the pillow to kiss faye\'s cheek. \"wow.\" she whispered, turning to wrap her legs around him and roll him onto his back. she straddled him and leaned forward to kiss his face and neck, wiggiling her butt back as she kissed him lower and lower until she got to his abdomen, where she unbuckled his pants and yanked them off him with enthusaism. *wow...* she thought *he\'s never been so... big... in my dreams before. my imagination is getting better.* Faye smirked to herself and leaned foreward, licking his long shaft from base to head.

\"Faye.\" He barely whispered her name, but she heard it, and it was enough to give her the courage to carry on. She pulled him into her mouth and ran her tongue over every part it could reach, while slowly taking as much of him in as she could, before creating a suction and pulling her head back. As his moans picked up she increased her speed until his hands were wrapped in her hair tight and his hips were jerking uncontrolably. \"Faye! Faye i\'m gunna....\" spike started but faye just pressed on, waiting for him to explode into her waiting mouth. Spike propped himself up on his elbows to watch what she was doing and she tilted her head back a bit, meeting his eyes, but never stopping her ministrations. Spike couldn\'t handle it anymore, and came into her mouth, nearly dying of the pleasure and the beautiful site of Faye looking him in the eye the whole time. Spike fell back onto the bed, hooking his hands under faye\'s armpits and dragging her up to lay with him as he went.

Faye rested her head on his chest, one thigh pressed to the side of his, one laying over the top. Her hand traced lazy circles into his chest and the other held the hand he had wrapped around her. they lay there, catching their breath for quite a while before spike looked down at her, tilting her chin up to kiss her nose softly, pressing her back onto the bed, coming to rest between her thighs. He kissed her with more passion, glad that she was responding to his touch with the same amount of emotion. he pulled back to look her in the eye as he placed the head of his member against her core. She nodded and kissed him hard as he pressed into her, both gasping for air as soon as he did. Spike paused for a minute, resting his forehead into the crook of her shoulder, getting used to how tight and wonderful she felt. Faye\'s inner muscles were already at work, giving her a mini-orgasm as soon as he entered her. Slowly, spike began to pump into her, working up a pace until they were both whimpering into each others shoulders, biting and gasping for air. They both came hard, screaming each others names and colapsing into each others arms. they lay there, in that same position, collecting their breath and lulling into a deep sleep.

\"goodnight, Spike.\"

\"Goodnight, Faye.\"

Faye vaguely heard a banging noise and muffled yelling. *man, that dream seemed so real.* She thought, trying to pull herself from the grogginess of morning. The banging became clear and she heard jet\'s voice booming through the door \"Get up, you two! It\'s time for breakfast!\"

*you two?* Faye still lay in the bed, happy to be warm and snuggled. *what did he mean by you tw- wait... snuggled? I\'m being hugged?* Faye sat up immeadeatly and turned to find that she had been in the arms of none other than Spike Spiegel...


\"SHIT!!!\" Faye screamed at the top of her lungs, waking Spike, who looked up at her with a shocked and terrified impression.
