Disclaimer: They aren't mine, not yet, but the will be once I've taken over the world. Bwah-ha-ha.
Warnings/Squicks: Suggestive reinterpretation of Christmas carol lyrics
Summary: Spike sings O Holy Night but Xander hears the words in a whole different light
Notes: Based on a prompt at comment_fic: “Fall on your knees” from O Holy Night

“Fall on your knees,
O hear the angel voices!”

Spike stopped singing and turned to look at where an unexpected “urk” had come from the kitchen. Xander stood there, holding his drink so tightly that his knuckles whitened.

“Gonna have eggnog all over the floor if your not careful, pet.”

Xander blinked a few times in response.

“What? Don't like Christmas carols?” Spike asked.

Xander carefully put his glass down before replying. “I've been around you too long.”

“Can't be around me too long,” Spike said with a smirk.

Xander looked dazed, almost entranced, as he crossed the room. Matching words to deed, he knelt before Spike saying, “Fall on your knees.”

Spike grinned at the devotion in Xander's eyes. Reaching out, he brushed his fingers through dark hair. “Come on, then. Adore me.”

*snerk* So wrong, and yet, so, so right.

Love the last line. Just priceless.

[dragonyphoenix.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! I appreciate the comment about the line; I was very pleased with myself when I came up with that one. ;-)

[forsaken2003.livejournal.com]

I will never hear that song the same way again! lol =)

[dragonyphoenix.livejournal.com]

Ha!

I hope I do because my favorite thing about that line is the idea that angels are so terrifyingly awesome that your legs can't hold you up. Seriously cool image.

Still, this was too good to pass up. ;-)

oh yes I do like this. Love it!

[dragonyphoenix.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'm pretty pleased with it myself. ;-)

heehee! So adorable!

[dragonyphoenix.livejournal.com]

Thanks. The boys can be cute together, can't they?

[samueljames]

Oh this made me smile.

[dragonyphoenix.livejournal.com]

Ah, thank you! ;-)

[brunettepet.livejournal.com]

That last line is killer!

[dragonyphoenix.livejournal.com]

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I'm really proud of that last line. ;-)

[ginnyrules2.livejournal.com]

Very nice. And rather cute, made me smile

[dragonyphoenix.livejournal.com]

Thank you. Gets me chuckling every time I read it.

[laazikaat.livejournal.com]

awwwwwww! So sweet, I have to add to the general acclaim, that last line was a ripper.

[dragonyphoenix.livejournal.com]

Shucks. *blushes* Thanks so much.

I did something similar with Christmas carol lyrics, in the first scene of Bronze Angel (http://dragonyphoenix.livejournal.com/34963.html), where Ethan has a vision of Giles!Angel. I think that one works well too. Not that I'm boasting or anything. ;-)

LOL. Fall on your knees indeed! Hee!!! Thanks for posting at Ultimate Xander!!

[dragonyphoenix.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I would say an evil person came up with that prompt but, man, it really inspired me.

Awesome icon!

[skargasm.livejournal.com]

Adore me indeed *giggle*

[dragonyphoenix.livejournal.com]

I sort of figured you'd like this one. ;-)

[skargasm.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah, right up my street!

[whichclothes.livejournal.com]

At least he was hearing Spike voice and not Angel voice. ;-)

[dragonyphoenix.livejournal.com]

I was going to say Spike's voice is definitely much, much better (because Spike is so much cooler and better for Xan), but then I thought about how Angel sings, and it's still true although for a totally different reason.

[whichclothes.livejournal.com]

Yep. I'd take Spike singing any day, even if he weren't way sexier. :-)
