That One's Different
Title: That One's Different
Characters: Spike, ensemble mentions, Angel
Pairing: Spike/Angel
Rating: PG
A/N: There is a romantic relationship between Angel and Spike, but no smut :)
Spike’s not sure when or why he’d picked up the habit of giving nicknames; likely after people started addressing him by a nickname. He’d loved it and had shed “William” with enthusiasm.
Eventually, everyone he knows has one: Host. Charlie. Red. Watcher. Hell, even his nicknames have nicknames - he calls Dawn Niblet but shortens it to just Bit sometimes.
With Angel, of course, it’s different. The nicknames fly between them constantly, usually derogatory terms like “nance”, “poof” or “boy”.
Pet names are different, though. When they’re alone, Spike lives for Angel’s rare but treasured whisper of chuisle against his skin.
