He puts it off for as long as he can, but eventually, it's time. Xander asks Spike to make the calls — they’ll want to see him, before it’s too late. A spasm passes over Spike's face, but only for a moment. He nods, leaning over the metal railing of Xander's bed for a brief, close-mouthed kiss. It’s not the way they used to kiss, Xander thinks, but with nostalgia, not regret. He touches Spike’s face, a gesture as familiar as breathing. Spike blinks, slowly — once, twice, again — until the tears are gone.
Sometimes, Spike manages a smile; but not today.
