A feelgood fic for all! :)

So, my day has been rushed and stressful and all sorts of annoying things that I'm trying to purge my mind of, and that I'm certainly not going to inflict on you. Instead I come bearing Christmas (or Holiday/Hanukkah/Solstice etc) fic: Something warm and snuggly to help you all de-stress.

This also happens to be the second part of 'Not Quite a Christmas Carol' (Part 1 here), but if anyone has actually read Dickens' marvellous tale, they might recall that the first ghost is melancholy, the second jolly and the third creepy. Soooo, this fic is all about the warm and happy (see icon) - a sort of stand-alone within a stand-alone. Or, more precisely, an interlude. All you need to know is that Spike and Buffy are dating, he's come to Rome for Christmas and the resident Watcher is called Johnson (and his wife's pregnant). Let the schmoop commence. :)

Many thanks to kathyh for the beta and feedback is the best present there is! ;)
