Pairings: Spuffy, Bangel friendship

Summery: After IWRY Buffy finds out she's pregnant. An old friend becomes an unlikely ally.

Buffy entered her dorm room and threw her bag on the floor. The bus ride from LA had been too long. Her chat with Angel was… hard among other things. She never realized how hard it would be to see him face to face again.

After her meeting with Angel she went back to her father's house and had dinner with him. She couldn't wait to get out of that house, her dad's new girlfriend was such a spoiled brat. And the fact that she was only two years older than Buffy herself didn't sit well with the slayer.

Now she was back home and she wanted nothing more than to lay in bed and get some much needed sleep.

"That's a good sound. Thump thump."

"It feels pretty amazing."

Buffy woke with a start. That was a weird dream.

Buffy got out of bed and headed to the showers. She'd had this strange feeling since leaving Angel's office and she hoped a nice shower would wash it away.

One Week Later

Giles' Flat

Buffy walked in and noticed Spike sleeping on the couch. Giles was no where to be seen. "Giles." Buffy called softly. "Giles are you here?" She asked a little louder.

"He went to the market, luv." Spike answered from the couch.

Suddenly Spike sprung into a sitting position in the couch and stared at her. His eyes grew big and he leapt up off the couch and moved towards her. "You're knocked up." He said with a laugh.

"What, Spike what are you talking about?"

"You're knocked up, luv." Spike told her.

"Spike you're being ridiculous I am not…" Buffy stopped in the middle of her sentence. She thought about how she'd been feeling weird ever since her talk with Angel. "Oh my god… I am pregnant."

"So… Parker…" He looked at her.

"What… Spike what is it?"

"Parker isn't the brat's dad. The poof is."

"What?"

"My grandsire, his scent is all over you. The great big poof knocked you up" Spike said with a laugh.

"Spike what the hell are you talking about? You know that vampires can't procreate. Besides we haven't been together like that since my seventeenth birthday."

"I don't know how, but what I do know is this kid is Peaches."

"How?"

"How the hell should I know?" He replied. "Guess Watcher man has some hard work to do."

"NO! Spike you can't tell Giles. You can't tell anyone. That means no phone calls to LA. This stays between me and you until I figure out what I'm going to do."

"Aren't you going to tell the big poof?"

"Not now, not until I'm one- hundred percent sure that this is his kid."
"Pish tosh, you know the kids his."

"I need time to think. I need to see a doctor."

She turned around to leave but then stopped and faced Spike. "Don't tell Giles I was here. Please don't say anyth8ing about this to anyone Spike." She pleaded.

Spike took one look at her pleading face and knew he couldn't deny her this. He only nodded.

Buffy smiled and left.

UC Sunnydale Free Clinic

"Mrs. Summers, we've gotten your results back and you are almost one month pregnant." The doctor told her.

"Are you sure?" Buffy asked worriedly, even though she knew the answer already.

"Yes, I'm positive."

"Thank you doctor." Buffy said as she left the room.
