"Dusk"
They had been wandering around the store for ages, and had yet to settle on what to buy. Spike was more than ready to get out of the store, and deal with the growing problem he was experiencing downstairs. Everywhere he turned in this place only exacerbated the issue. The night life in Sunnydale wasn't the greatest aside from the Bronze. And when that was where you spent your nights day in and out it got kind of tired after a while. When he got bored, Spike liked to check out the adult video store just for kicks, which had gotten considerably more enjoyable now that he had a girlfriend.
"Jackie, just pick something already. I just want to go home! I wanna watch you play with your new toy..." He whined, stepping up behind her and placing his hands on her hips. He kissed her neck, pressing up against her, hoping she could appreciate how difficult this was for him, being in this store.
"No, Spike. No toys. I told you, I wanna get something we'll both enjoy. Now help me pick one." She was standing in front of the movies. Spoofed movie titles with air brushed naked women stared back at him. A Cockwork Orange, Schindler's Fist and Come with the Wind were but few of the choices amidst the selection. There was even one about a vampire hunter. What a laugh. He scanned the shelfs, looking for something that caught his eyes, when finally he found one that sparked his interest.
"What about this one?" He asked, taking the movie from its spot on the shelf, and showing Jackie the cover. It was simply called Dusk, and there was a pale girl on the front, with dark hair and sunken eyes. There were two men on each side of her, both with dark sunken eyes of their own. It looked dark and mysterious, far more his speed than movies about sorority girls and cheerleaders. He flipped it over, and seeing the word "vampire" on the back, it was settled.
"Look, babe. It's our lives. We should get it," he said, throwing an arm around her shoulder and kissing the side of her head. She giggled and said they could get it. Jackie had already done more than enough to make him feel like he was one of the luckiest men alive, but buying porn with him made him love her all the more. He hadn't even thought that was possible. They approached the check out counter hand in hand, with Spike eagerly leading the way. "Ring us up, good sir. We're in a hurry." He said, winking cheekily at Jackie while they waited for their total. The cashier tried to up-sell them on their rental program, or a travel sized bottle of flavored lubrication, which they politely declined. Spike was just anxious to get back to Jackie's. The roommates weren't home, and they'd be able to have lots of uninterrupted fun. He fully intended to act out every scene of this movie with her.
In a few minutes, they were out the door and on their way. It felt like an eternity to Spike. Luckily, he was driving, and in control of how long it would take them to get to her house. It didn't take very long to get anywhere in Sunnydale, but Spike had been beyond ready over twenty minutes ago. Their drive was only another ten, but he was in agony by the time he pulled into her driveway. He killed the ignition, grabbed the movie, and practically flew out of the car. He reached the door that lead directly to her basement bedroom, but had to wait for her to come and unlock it. It was excruciating the way she painstakingly sauntered over to the door, and took her time fitting the key in the lock. He was practically vibrating with excitement - he only wished he could keep it up once they got downstairs. The vibrating. Not Spike Jr. He had no trouble in that department.
The second she got the door open, he raced downstairs to pop the DVD in the player. He didn't even wait for her to get downstairs before he took off his shirt, and lay across her bed watching the menu load. She took her time coming down the stairs, driving him crazy on purpose. When he was within her sight, he patted the bed next to him, inviting her to join him. She giggled in that adorable way she had about her, and came over and lay down. Once they were both comfortable, Spike hit play on the remote.
The movie began, and unfortunately this was a parody, meaning the porno had a story to it. It must've followed the movie it was spoofing, but Spike had no idea what that was. First there was a kid she met in school. They were lab partners. They screwed. The scenes were steamy, but Spike was trying to wait towards the end to make his move so they would both be sure to be ready. In the meantime he rubbed Jackie's back and kissed her neck. Apparently, there was this other boy who tried to warn the girl about the first. They also screwed. Naturally, it was a porno. The next scene involved the first boy and the girl once again, and they were out in the woods. The boy was encouraging her to guess why he had an other worldly sexual prowess. Apparently, his fucking abilities had gotten her suspicious. Especially now that she'd had something to compare it to. Because the audience was supposed to believe that before that first time, she was a virgin. Ha! Yeah, right. He yelled at her to say out loud what he was, and she said vampire. Spike smirked. He had a feeling it was this kid, and not the other. The vampire confirmed she was correct, and the girl asked him to prove it.
"Here it comes," Spike muttered, anticipating a violent sex scene with biting, blood and a bumpy forehead. But instead, the boy took the girl's hand and lead her out of the safe covering of the trees and out into the sunshine. "Wait. What are you doing? Don't go out there..." Suddenly this had turned into some kind of horror movie. Of course, they were actors. He doubted it was an actual vampire in this movie. But shouldn't the character be afraid? Or at least nervous? Or some kind of concerned?! But the character was just fine. And when the sunlight hit his bare, pale skin... Flecks of glitter reflected the light, and he sparkled. Sparkled. Like some fruity, sequined wonder. Infuriated, Spike paused the DVD, and got out of the bed and onto his feet.
"Are you bloody kidding me?!" He screamed, facing the TV as if the movie makers could hear his criticism.
"What? What's wrong," Jackie asked, probably more in the know about this parody than Spike himself was.
"He's. Fuckin.' Sparklin!'" Spike said, gesturing frantically at the screen. Jackie only stared back, still not understanding what the problem was. "Vampires don't fuckin' sparkle. In the sunlight, or any other circumstances for that matter! Vampires are evil, soulless, blood thirsty animals! Dangerous, lethal, cunning hunters on the prowl, ever searching for their next meal. Their next victim. They don't tell their secret and let their food go free, they aren't romantic or mysterious or interesting. AND WHEN THE SUN HITS THEIR SKIN THEY BLOODY DISINTEGRATE!" At this last outburst, Spike flailed his arms and stomped his feet in frustration. He could not believe this false portrayal of vampires was allowed to be perpetuated in the media like this. He was enraged. It was wrong! Something needed to be done. He was pacing back and forth in anger, when Jackie's giggle broke his concentration.
"Oh, and what's so boody funny?!" Spike asked, turning to Jackie who didn't back down for an instant.
"You!" She answered, shaking her head. "I had a feeling you weren't going to like this story, but I never thought your reaction would be this priceless." She explained, shaking her head.
"Oh, haha. Let's just waste our hard earned money on some terrible shit that completely spoils the mood." He said, plopping down on the side of her bed in a pout.
"Oh, please. We can still return the movie tomorrow, and besides. I don't know about completely," she said, reaching around his waist and between his legs. Suddenly, Spike wasn't quite so bothered by the hollywood vampire, that the city by the same name had made out to be worthy of desire and lustful feelings. It he wasn't so distracted, he would probably be disgusted.
"Oh, really?" He asked, turning and leaning over her, slowly moving in for a kiss. But before his lips touched hers, she just had to get another word in.
"But maybe we should wait til daylight. I wanna see you sparkle." She teased, smiling evilly at her cleverness.
"Oh, ha-ha." He answered back sarcastically. "How about I show you what a real vampire is capable of in bed?" Spike suggested, causing Jackie to bite her lip. Smiling, he leaned down to finish what he started, taking her expression as his queue for approval. After all, a vampire couldn't enter where he wasn't first invited.
End. Happy Birthday God of Dyslexia!
