Boys Night Out
Who: Spike, Eric, Xander, Owen and Elijah
Where: Games Room
When: The night after invitations issued over the network
What: Cards, beer, and male bonding
Spike headed down the game room a bit before eight, since he hadn't really done anything to prepare for a poker night, other than issue the invitations which in of itself was a spur of the moment idea brought on by the rather mind numbing routine that was life in the Hotel. He hoped a poker night would break up the monotany and if it went well, it might even be something worth doing on a regular basis. Because while he loved Buffy more than anything, it was nice to get out and have a guys night occasionally.
While most of the time it creeped him out when the Hellton seemingly read his mind, this time Spike was pleased when he showed up at the games room to find a fresh pack of cards and a new case of chips sitting on the round green felt topped card table. The icing on the cake was the table with a few ice buckets filled with beers, a box of cuban cigars and a couple bowls of different poker appropriate snack foods.
Well it seemed that the hotel had done all the work for him so he snagged on of the cigars, stuck it in corner of his mouth and plopped himself down in one of the 5 chairs that the hotel had also thoughtfully provided. Unwrapping the cellophane from the sealed pack of cards, he propped his combat boots up on the edge of the table and absently shuffled the cards while he waited for the others to arrive.
