That Good Night (11/?)

Hello out there! It's been a month and a half since I last posted any fic. Sometimes, you know, the story flows quickly and easily. Other times, not so much. Also real life has been full of interesting distractions, such as finding out that I'm pregnant (it was planned, but is nevertheless rather startling and strange!). Anyway! Finally I have a chapter ready to go. Thanks, as always, to yourlibrarian for beta-reading and for all her help along the way.

The details:

Title: That Good Night (part 11 of ?)
Rating: NC-17 (barely)
Pairing: Spike/Xander, ensemble
Continuity info: This is the sixth story in the Fragments 'verse, fitting in immediately after Before the Time of Dawn.
Summary: A couple of years post-NFA, Spike is human, and it isn’t working out so well. He and Xander are currently in Sao Paulo, where Willow has just had a baby and a new vampire problem is looming.
Warnings: This story will get dark at times. Definitely angsty, h/c with lots of hurt. Character death will most definitely be threatened, and I'd rather not say what comes of it (though if you're terribly worried, ask me privately).

This update is about 3600 words; the total length now stands at about 38,200.
