"Good for you Charlie, they should know better than to want a aluminum tree for Christmas when a good old wooden tree is the thing you have during Christmas. Those whelps are so stupid." Spike said to the TV while he lounged in his chair.

"Gosh, Spike. Never thought I'd see the day you watched cartoons. You are evil right?" Buffy said sarcastically as she stood in the doorway of the door she had just knocked down.

"Man, slayer, you know how many times I have to fix that door and Charlie Brown is a classic. I couldn't even eat the writer, Charles Shultz." Spike said seriously.

"Oh my you're serious. Well if I actually trusted you I would've invited you over to watch it with Dawn or then again maybe not. You really need to get a life Spike." Buffy said.

"Darn right I'm serious, luv." Spike said giving her a smirk that she thoroughly despised.

"Don't call me love and is that dog in a Santa suit and playing an accordion this show is really messed up." Buffy said as she stared at the TV where she saw Snoopy dressed up as Santa Claus.

"Yes he is and now that it seems to have caught your attention would you like to take a seat I've got an extra one." Spike said smiling.

"Right, I want to spend the night with my enemy, that makes total sense, Spike. I think I'm just going to go home and have some hot chocolate with Dawn and Mom. And no you cannot come, girls only night unless you're a girl which I highly doubt," Buffy said with a slight sarcastic tone.

"Fine be that way. I'll be fine here all by myself with nothing to do maybe I'll even decide to stake myself." Spike said trying to look like he was pouting.

"Do that and I'll be rejoicing forever and ever and ever and ever and…"

"I get the point so why don't you go and have a good sugary night in chocolate land and what not" Spike interrupted knowing that if he didn't she would go on forever.

"Fine, be that way but you're not going to get a Christmas present this year not that I was going to get you one but still." Buff said trying to look mad.

"Well, if you're going to be that way, I wish you gone." Spike said and Buffy disappeared.

Buffy found herself in front of what looked to be her house, but something wasn't quite right that's when he saw him.

"Spike, now what are you doing?" Buffy asked.

"Oh, I'm eating candy. Would you like some, luv? There's plenty here." Spike said as he walked toward her while licking a lollipop.

"Hey, Spike. I'll take some." Dawn said as she walked out of the house.

"Dawnie, be careful." Buffy warned her sister.

"What? All I'm doing is eating candy, oh mom's waiting for you. Says she has something she thinks you'll like." Dawn said as she started to eat the chocolate bar Spike had handed her.

"Hey, Mom, Dawn said you were waiting for me. What's up?" Buffy asked as she walked into the house and that's when she saw it. Buffy didn't have time to fight or scream because the huge Gingerbread man knocked her over the head with a candy cane.

"Buffy, earth to, Buffy." Buffy heard a voice say. She felt something soft under her and discovered it was a bed.

"Hey, Dawnie. I see you and Spike are done eating candy." Buffy said as she opened her eyes and sat up.

"What are you talking about? I haven't seen Spike all day. Been at school remember?" Dawn said looking well Buffy couldn't tell what she was looking.

"Buffy, somebody's at the door for you." Joyce called from downstairs.

"Coming mom." Buffy called as she got up from the bed and moved Dawn out of the way.

"Hey, Buffy, we need to talk." Spike said as he stood up from the couch.

"Spike what do you want. I mean if you're part another one of my crazy dreams and want candy or I don't know whatever crazy thing you want then I guess you can have it since dreams are crazy like that." Buffy babbled.

"Buffy, I wanted to tell you that I signed up. They're sending me over to England where I'm to fly a P-35 and fight. I don't know how long I'll be gone." Spike said and Buffy could tell he was trying not to look to upset.

"Spike, what are you talking about? One you can't sign up, you're dead and two what do you mean fly and fight in England I didn't think we were at war" Buffy said not sure if she should be scared for Spike's sanity but then decided against it since he was already crazy enough.

"What do you mean Buffy? America's been at war since the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor." Spike said and that's when Buffy realized that Spike had definitely gone off the deep end.

"Spike that war is over. It ended a little over fifty years ago." Buffy told him and then everything started changing. She no longer was in her house but in somebody else's where she heard somebody talking.

"...He is that fallen lance that lies as hurled
That lies unlifted now, come dew, come nest
But still lies pointed as it ploughed the dust
If we who sight along it round the world
See nothing worthy to have been its mark
It is because like men we look too near
Forgetting that as fitted to the sphere
Our missiles always make too short an arc
They fall, they rip the grass, they intersect
The curve of earth, and striking break their own;
They make us cringe for metal-point on stone
But this we know, the obstacle that checked
And tripped the body, shot the spirit on
Further than target ever showed or shoned"

"Spike, that was beautiful. Where did you hear that?" Buffy said once he was done.

"Buffy, you scared me or not scared startled or oh I don't know what I'm saying but that was ~A Soldier~ by Robert Frost do you like my place, luv." Spike said as he walked over to where Buffy was standing.

"Nice. Alright Spike what the heck did you do to me? First I'm somewhere like a candyland, next you're telling me you have to go fight in World War II, and now your're here in this house of your own, which is the most beautiful house I have ever seen but anyways, you were quoting Robert Frost." Buffy said a little angrily.

"Buffy, Buffy, my darling Buffy, I have done nothing but but oh I don't know but I've done nothing oh did you hear about Angel's little problem." Spike said smiling and when Buffy heard the name Angel she cringed.

"No, what happened?" Buffy asked not really wanting to know.

"He decided that he was going to go bye-bye and that's exactly what he did, and that's what you are going to also go bye-bye." and that is what Buffy did.

She woke to find herself in Spike's crypt and when she looked around she found him in his chair watching TV.

"What the heck just happened, Spike?" Buffy asked startling Spike a little.

"Oh rats you're back. I thought you were gone for good, now that would have been the day." Spike said laughing and right then Buffy walked up to him and punched him straight in the nose and walked out the crypt leaving Spike holding on to his nose.
