Getting glued back together...

Once again Spike was sitting at the bar at the Leaky Cauldron getting drunk of his arse. But he didn't care, he didn't care about anything anymore. But no one would know this by just looking at him, to everyone else he looked like a drunk goth freak. He was dressed all in black with his favorite floor length leather black coat showing the most. His platinum blonde hair and pale face made him look like a vampire, but he wasn't. In his hand was the third glass of firewhisky for the day. He lifted the glass to his mouth as he heard the bar door open. He didn't turn to look, or even care who it was. The glass became empty by the time he put it down. "Another one please, Mate." Spike asked the barman as he put more money on the bar. The empty glass vanished and a full one came into his view. Most of the time Spike was a mean drunk, but today he was just a depressed drunk.

It was fianlly Friday which was a great relief to her seeing how she had a long week of delivering babies and working double shifts. Deciding to get a nice firewhiskey before heading home she stopped off by the Leaky Cauldron. Pushing opened the door the bell tinkled above her head but she simply ignored it and walked into the dimly lit pub. As she walked over towards the bar she gave the bar tender a soft warm smile. "May I have a glass of firewhiskey please?"Sophia asked him softly as he nodded. As he set it down in front of her Sophia gotten her money out and set it on the counter. "Thankyou, and keep the rest as a tip."said Sophia as she winked at him.

Sophia was wearing a strapless mini dress that was white with orange, black, and yellow designs on it with a black mini sweater over it. Her dark brown hair was down and curly with a brown hat with a black bow around it. As she took a drink of her firewhiskey she noticed a blond hair guy beside her who looked extremely drunk.

^Sophia's look

Even though Spike had a good amount of firewhiskey in him he could still just bearly feel what others around him where feeling. His empath ability never went away. He hated it. But he could never make it go away no matter how much he drank. Of course that was only one of the reasons he drank. But the feelings he was getting off of the girl now sitting next to him was a mixture of exaustion, relief, and curiousity. He wondered why she had all these feelings. As he turned his head to look at her, he first saw what she was wearing. It looked a bit colorful and happy to be in a bar. But he didn't care. Then he saw how pale she looked. "You look a little young to be feeling so tired, Love." Spike said to her, forgetting that he never told anyone about his empathy ability. But he was to drunk for it to register. He took another gulp of his drink, spilling a little bit of it as he set it down.

Sophia looked at the guy next to him and laughed her tinkling bell laugh. "You tell that to my boss at St. Mungo's!"said Sophia softly. Sophia wondered how he knew she was tired but she shrugged it off seeing how she probably looked tired anyways. As she rubbed her eyes tiredly she shook herself away and took another drink of her firewhiskey. "Oh so rude of me I'm Sophia, Sophia Lestrange."said Sophia softly as she gotten out her wand and flicked it at the mess he made as it cleaned itself up. By the looks of he looked really depressed about something which made Sophia feel bad for him.

So she worked at the hospital. Well that made more since. Lots of nurses at the hospital are young. But that didn't explain the curious part. It took Spike a second to realize that he had to offer his name up now. "Oh...um..." Spike said switching his drink into his other hand so he could offer his hand for her to shake. As he offered his hand for her to shake, on his left hand was a womans silver wedding ring. It looks a couple of year old. "Names Spike. Nice to meet ya, Love." Spike said not offering his real first name or his last name at all. He never liked his name and always gave out only Spike. "What brings you to the Caldron Leaky?" Spike asked getting the words backwords and slurring his words.

"Nice to meet you Spike, nice name by the way."said Sophia softly as she gave him a soft warm smile. "You mean what brings me to the Leaky Cualdron?"Sophia asked him softly. Sophia shrugged. "I don't know, I had a long day at work so I needed something to calm my nerves."said Sophia softly. "I usually don't drink, but it been a long day."said Sophia sighing. "If I ask, what are you doing here?"Sophia asked him softly as her chocolate brown eyes looked at him curious. Sophia knew he was drunk off his arse and looked as if he might pass out in any second but maybe she could help him.

Spike smiled slightly when she corrected him. "Yeah that's it." Spike said switching his drink back to his other hand, making a mess while he did it. Then she asked the one question that he never liked answering. But it was an easy one to answer. "To get drunk. Make all the emotions go away. Never liked them all being in my head anyways." Spike said pointing at his head with his free hand. He then brought the cup to his lips again and drank the rest down, slamming the cup down on the counter as he did. "Welp out of drink and out of money. Time to go." Spike said trying to stand up and falling to the floor as he did. He broke his nose as he did this. "Owch." Spike said while listening to the few other people that where in the bar laugh as they watched him. He finally stood up, not straight up of course, using the stool as he got up.

Sophia nodded understanding how he felt, for she used to do that all the time when her mother died and her father gone missing. Sophia alittle bit as he slammed the glass down for it echoed in her ear louder cause of her vampire hearing. Sophia gasped as he fell on the floor as he tried to leave the place having a couple of people laughing at him. As her eyes turned red with anger she glared at the man as they stopped laughing and went back ot drinking quietly. As she gotten her wand out of her black mini jacket she flicked it at Spike. "Episkey!"said Sophia as she pointed her wand at him hoping that his nose went back to it normal place. "One last one to clean the blood from your face, Tergeo!"said Sophia softly hoping to clea the blood off his face from his broken nose.

Spike sighed deeply as he finally made it back up to his chair. Then he felt a tiny pinch while the girl next to him fixed his nose and cleaned the blood up. "What you do that for? Help me I mean. No one ever helps me." Spike asked her knowing the answer before finishing his question. He didn't really care why, he just didn't have the ability to stop from talking anymore. Unfortunately before she could answer he bent over towards her and threw up, getting it everywhere. He then fell backwards again passing out. Just before he hit the floor and passed out he could feel her anger pulsing through him. He didn't like making people angry, he didn't have many friends that could stand him anymore and making one would have been nice. Of course he just threw up on the girl and then passed out, so who knew if she would help him this time. While he was passed out he dreamed of the night his dead ex-girlfriend had died. Tears streamed down his face, his eyes closed, his mouth hung open.

"Because, your a good person Spike even if your not making wise choices right now."said Sophia softly. Sophia gasped in shock as he threw up on her and then passed out on the ground before her. "Well... that was... expecting."said Sophia softly to herself. As she flicked her wand at herself she cleaned herself up and then the area around her. "Ok... Spike, lets get you to St.Mungo's and let you have some rest."said Sophia softly. As she grabbed his hand she appearted him to St. Mungo's room and then flicked her wand at Spike. "Mobilicorpus!"said Sophia as his body floated in the air as she laid him on the bed. Being a healer Sophia could pretty much help anyone that needed it. "Tergeo!"said Sophia once again as she cleaned Spike up and gave him the sleeping potion to have him sleep for awhile since he looked like he haven't had sleep lately.
