Drabble: Bad Night

[usedtobeljs]

TITLE: Bad Night
AUTHOR: LJS
RATING: G
SUMMARY: Season Four with chipped Spike, but before "A New Man"

“I thought you called her.” Despite his headache and aching ankle, Giles looked daggers at Spike.

“Can’t be having you lying at my crypt door, true, but I’m not ringing up the Slayer. No wish for a dusty evening.” Spike helped Giles up, snickered at the pain-ridden moan Giles couldn’t silence, pushed him forward. “Come on, old man, I’ll take you to hospital in the DeSoto. Might get a spot of blood while I’m there too, yeah.”

“So happy to help with your shopping,” Giles muttered, took a step, and winced.

Hurt on patrol. Helped by Spike. Worst night ever.

Two Giles Drabbles

I'm feeling good this morning so there are two drabbles. I'm possibly being a bit too competitive.

"If we'd been having sex, none of this would have happened."

Though his hands were tied uncomfortably behind him, Giles twisted to look incredulously at his similarly bound friend."Well not together, obviously," Xander continued. "I just mean if either of us had any kind of social life, we wouldn't be in this mess."

Giles looked to where the high priest was preparing his sacrificial alter and conceded the point.

"I suppose there are better ways to spend a Saturday night. Did Buffy give you any kind of timeframe for when she'd be joining us?"

"I thought you called her?"

Characters: Giles, Travers, A bit of Faith


He booked the next flight out to Sunnydale but Travers intercepted him.

"A monstrous resurrection. It is your duty, Rupert, to take whatever is out there and put it back in the bloody ground!"

"Not if it is really Buffy."

Travers oozed, "Then I'm sure Faith will eagerly take the opportunity to set matters right."

Giles could only smile. He'd anticipated that move already and phoned the jail. 'Yeah, Mr Stuffy Butt rang, but we're five by five here, G.'

"Faith isn't terribly interested in Council offers." He savoured his advantage. "What's the matter, Quentin? I thought you called her?"
