Happy Birthday

By Nicollette Marquis McFadgen


Notes: Takes place in Chelle's Liarverse. I'd say Xavy is about three or four here.
Dedication: To Ms. K. Monkey. Happy Birthday, my fine monkey friend.

"Xander, baby, wake up." Angelus smiled as his loved moaned and turned over. "Wake up."

"Nooooo, sleep," Xander mumbled. "Tired."

"I know." Angelus' smile widened. "You're probably tired since you just went to sleep not but three hours ago."

Xander's eyes opened. "Then why the hell are you waking me up?"

"Because it's your birthday now."

Xander rubbed his eyes and sat up. "So?"

"So?" Angelus asked incredulously. "So, it's a big deal!"

Xander looked around. "Where's Xavy?"

Angelus smiled sexily. "He's sleeping in his bed for once."

Xander narrowed his eyes. "I see what this is."

"What?"

"This is an 'Angelus wants to get laid' thing, isn't it?"

Chuckling, Angelus' arms moved around his lover, pulling him close. "This is an 'Angelus wants to make the man he loves feel good and celebrate his birthday properly' thing. With a little 'Angelus wants to get laid' thrown in just for fun."

"You know," Xander yawned. "We just had sex like four hours ago, Dead Boy."

"So? Does that have some significance? It was great and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. Now, I'd like to enjoy myself some more, is that so wrong?"

Xander smiled and pressed his lips against his lover's. "No, not wrong at all." He stood up on the bed. Looking down at Angelus, he smiled wider at the confused look on his face. "I'll have sex with you if you jump on the bed with me."

"Huh?"

"This would be the 'Angelus making the man he loves feel good' part. It's my birthday, and I say jumping on the bed is how we'll celebrate."

"Xander..."

"No! You woke me up...now you must do as I say! And I say jump on the bed, damn you." Angelus slowly rose to his feet and bounced a little. "Oh, please! You can do better than that. Don't tell me you never did this when you were little."

"Um, actually, I didn't. We didn't have springs in our beds."

"What did you do for fun then?"

"Got beat up by my sisters."

"Yeah. That sounds amusing. Mighty Angelus, Master Vampire got beat up by girls!"

"Hey! I was like seven and they were like fourteen. And you don't know Irish women, Xander. They've got fire in them."

"Yeah, whatever, you still got your little pansy-ass whipped by your sisters! Now jump."

"I'll break the bed."

"Oh, you will not."

"Look, we're two grown men..."

"Vampires," Xander corrected.

"Vampires. If we jump on the bed, it'll break."

"Phooey."

"It's called physics. Cause and Effect."

"Malarchy! I don't believe it. Now jump, or the 'Angelus gets laid by his young attractive lover' part is out of this evening's program." Sighing deeply, Angelus began to jump. "I win!" Xander exclaimed as he began to jump.

After several minutes they heard giggling coming from the doorway. Both vampires turned to see their son standing just inside the doorway, wearing footie pajamas and clutching a teddy bear. "Silly!" Xavy exclaimed as he ran over to the bed and hopped up. "I jump too?"

Angelus gave Xander a 'look what you've started' look, but then smiled down at his son. "Yes, you may jump too." Xavy clapped his chubby hands. "Know what today is, Xavier?" He shook his head. "It's your daddy's birthday."

"Oh! Happy Birfday, Daddy!"

"Thank you, Xavy," Xander said as he took his son's hand in his own. "Now, let's jump. Ready? One, Two, Three..."

Angelus watched his lover and his son jump up and down on the bed. Even though he adored watching the two, he couldn't help but hope that Xavy would fall asleep again soon. He was anxious to get onto the 'Angelus gets laid' part of the celebration.
