"Why would I be upset?" Spike asked. "It's the truth, isn't it? Better to tell her than having to explain in person when she shows up with chicken soup." Spike paused, his smile fading. "D'you think she will? I like the girl, and I'd love to show off my physical self, but all I'd be able to think about is what Angel did to her."

"I know." Wesley sighed. "I already feel guilty for not saying anything to her."

"I'm not sure how I'd be able to convince her, other than show her the canister with her name on it," Wesley said. "Assuming it's still there, of course."

"No, I suppose not." Wesley reached out his opposite hand and rested it at Spike's waist, wanting to move in closer but not quite ready to do so.

"I don't know. Do I?" Wesley smiled a little bit. "Do you?"

"Probably. If you're around long enough." Because that was the real problem, from Wesley's perspective, at least -- whether or not Spike would stay.

"A few hundred?" Wesley shrugged apologetically.

"I'll take whatever I can get," Wesley admitted, his fingers tightening on the waistband of Spike's jeans.

Wesley tried to smile. "So what number would that be, do you think? Twelve or so?"

"That could be a very long time," Wesley said, finally giving in to the impulse to pull Spike toward him.

As if he were watching someone else, Wesley saw his own hand come up and cup Spike's chin, exerting slight pressure in an attempt to get to Spike to look at him. "There's nothing I'd like better than for this to be permanent." In that moment, it was nothing but the complete truth.

"You couldn't be more wrong," Wesley said, looking directly at Spike. "I'm extremely fortunate that you're here right now, that's true, but the current situation has nothing to do with me wanting you."

"I'll have to convince you then," Wesley said, leaning in to kiss Spike very gently.

"You have said you think I'm smart," Wesley pointed out. "Under the circumstances, I think you should accept that I know what I'm talking about."

"That's where I tend to fall down on the job. I'm not very good at just letting things happen." Wesley slid his other hand down over Spike's back.

Very quietly, Wesley said, "Sounds like we'll have to meet in the middle."

"Whatever you're willing to give me," Wesley said, not unaware that it was an answer that made him sound terribly desperate. "I want you here, with me. I want... a partner."

Wesley didn't -- couldn't -- believe him. Still, it was nice to hear. Wonderful, actually. But it left him with no response that would be in any way appropriate, so instead of saying something, he held Spike more tightly and kissed him with as much feeling as he could put into the gesture.

Any second, Wesley told himself, they'd stop kissing, and do something productive. It didn't make sense for them to lose themselves in this, the heated press of lips, the careful stroking touch of hands over clothed skin...

Unable to decide whether to press himself more closely to Spike's body or to arch back into the touch of his hands, Wesley moved in for another kiss instead, languid and open-mouthed, his tongue slicking against Spike's. "Maybe a little."

"But we should..." Wesley broke off as he slid his hand around to Spike's chest, momentarily distracted by the feel of the taut nipple underneath the t-shirt. What should they be doing? He'd forgotten. "Generally I catch on rather quickly," he murmured. "I suppose in this situation it would be to my benefit if it took some time."

Wesley gave a little hum of pleasure and contentment and tilted his head slightly to give Spike better access. He slid his thumb through one of the belt loops on Spike's jeans and dragged him closer, not that there was much closer to get at that point. "Not stopping sounds like an excellent idea," he sighed.

Little thrills, just the faintest stirrings of arousal, were moving through Wesley, making him aware that if this went much farther it would go all the way. There was something about Spike's touch that set a low fire burning, one that wouldn't be easily extinguished once a certain point had been reached. "Spike," he said in almost a whisper as the vampire's mouth traced his jaw toward his ear.
