"Mother, please, don't I said I'd go." Angel heard Spike say from the other room. He hadn't been able to get a ton of sleep since Spike came up because whenever Spike finally fell asleep he would talk and it really was starting to bug Angel.
"Spike, wake up." Angel said as he came into the room where he saw Spike laying on the couch with the covers that Fred had put on him earlier when she was up, knocked off.
"What is it Angel?" Spike asked suddenly awake.
"You were talking in your sleep again." Angel said angrily.
"Aww, did it keep poor Peaches awake." Spike said grinning at Angel, knowing that he was annoying him.
"Yes, now shut up. I need my sleep just as much as you do." Angel said angrily.
"I have a better idea." Spike said.
"Oh, really, and what praytell would that be?" Angel asked tiredly and annoyed.
"I'll call Fred up. You know you need more beer. Think Gunn got the last one about two minutes ago." Spike said and that's when Angel realized he was having another hallucination.
"Just shut up, Spike." Angel said and walked back to his bedroom, leaving behind a confused Spike.
"Where's Cordy?" Harmony, who was in the infirmary, asked
"Not here, Harmony. Now get some sleep." Fred said a little annoyed. Harmony was really starting to annoy her.
"Alright." Harmony said and she closed her eyes reluctantly.
"Have you figure out what is happening to the three?" Wesley asked as he came into the lab where Fred was working on something.
"I haven't found a thing. All I know is that three vampires got sick on the same day and there's no explanation." Fred said frustrated. She was mostly concerned about Spike and Angel. She liked Harmony and all but she got on her nerves.
"We'll figure something out." Wesley said reassuring her as he put his hands on her shoulders.
"Thanks." Fred said and then went back to what she was working on.
"William, how's Dru doing?" Angel asked from his bed in his old Irish accent. Spike at some point had wandered in and was sitting in the same chair he had been in before.
"It's Spike, and fine I guess, just as crazy as ever, which is your doing I believe, Angelus." Spike said grinning.
"So you ready for some fun tonight. Hear the duke's putting on a party." Angel said with an evil glare in his feverish eyes.
"Sounds good to me. Let's start with that beautiful lady over there." Spike said looking at Fred who had just come in.
"What are you guys doing?" Fred asked cautiously.
"Just listening." Angel said and Fred picked up on the Irish accent right away.
"To what and what's with the accent, Angel." Fred asked as she stood in the doorway.
"It's Angelus, and to your heart." He said snidely as he looked at her neck, wiping his tongue over his teeth.
"Spike, what's going on?" Fred asked looking at Spike who looked a little dazed, but only a little and the moment Fred asked him the question he snapped out of it.
"Ha, she remembered my name" Spike said to Angel and got a glare in return.
"Just having a little fun, luv. No need to worry your pretty little head." Spike said looking at Fred.
"Alright you two. Spike, you are on the couch now, Angel, and your name is Angel, you are laying down and getting rest." Fred said taking control of seemed to be a possibly bad situation. She could tell they were getting worse, which only made her more frustrated because she had yet to find any answers.
"If we do, luv, you gonna bring us up a pint of blood." Spike said still not moving from the chair
"Can't, put you guys off blood until you're better. You guys are going to eat raw meat and that's about it other than water." Fred said looking at him.
"Right, luv. Well guess I should be headed over to that couch." Spike said as he started to get up and then suddenly grabbed hold of the wall for support.
"Think you can give me a hand, luv?" Spike asked looking her with pleading eyes. Fred went over to help him without a question.
"Thanks, Fred. I don't know what I'd do without you." Spike said smiling at her.
"You're back." Fred said looking at him but suddenly realized he looked confused.
"Never mind, what I just said. You're welcome." Fred said as she guided him to the couch and then covered him up once he was laying down.
"You know I'll just kick those off." Spike said eying the blanket.
"I know, but it'll keep you warm for now." Fred said smiling and Spike smiled back.
"Fred, why do you guys deal with me?" Spike asked and Fred knew he was serious.
"I don't know, Spike. If it counts for anything, I like you and I know Angel doesn't say it but he kind of likes you, I know Lorne likes you Wesley and Gunn I'm not sure about." Fred said looking at him, making him drink some of his water.
"Do you think I could get some meat?" Spike asked handing his water back to Fred.
"Sure. I'll go get it now." Fred said and they smiled at each other. Fred got up and walked into the elevator to go back down stairs.
