The days went by with little change, Spike was still angry at his father for acting the way he did. Spike only agreed to his parents party so that he could show his father that him and Buffy weren't breaking up anytime soon. Spike was up in his room getting ready, when he heard a knock on his door. He saw his mother enter his room, she walked into his room, and stared at her son.
"You clean up good William." Jenny said smiling
Spike was wearing tan slacks, and a blue button down shirt, and regular black dress shoes. His hair was back to brown, with a slight hint of blonde in it now. He left his hair a little curly tonight.
"Thanks mum." Spike said simply
"Are you alright dear?" Jenny asked
"Honestly. No I'm not da' is gettin on my nerves with this already. I hate that he treats my friends like dirt because they aren't like him." Spike said
"Your father loves you. He wants you to be successful." Jenny explained
"Mum I never told you this, but I was planning on dropping out of school, and moving to L.A anyways with Oz, Angel, Xander, and Buffy." Spike said
"William..." Jenny started
"No just let me finish. I love her mum more than anything, I can't explain it but she is the one for me, she's it. I'm sorry." Spike finished
"Don't be sorry for doing what you think is right. Will just give college a try first? That's all I ask." Jenny asked
"Alright mum I promise." Spike hugged his mother
"Well come on I think people are arriving now." Jenny said
Spike got up and went down stairs with his mother, he got down there to see his aunt Mary, and Uncle Marshall sitting with his sister. Spike sighed deeply and went to say hello. As other guest started to arrive Spike called Buffy on the phone wondering where she was. When she answered he knew something was wrong.
"Buffy luv what's the matter?" Spike asked concerned
"Spike I'm sorry I'm not there." Buffy sniffled
"Hey its alright luv. Are you okay?" Spike asked
"My dad came back, and he won't leave he... h-ee he hit my mom. Spike me and Dawn are hiding till the cops come." Buffy cried
"Oh geez. Alright luv I'm on my way." Spike said
"Spike but your party just stay there." Buffy insisted
"No way luv. You should know by now that you're the most important thing in my life." Spike said sweetly
"Okay. I love you Spike. and Thank you"Buffy said
"Your welcome. I will be there soon." Spike said
Spike hung up and ran down stairs to his parents who were talking to his grandparents
"Mum, Da' I got to go." Spike said
"Why?" Rupert asked
"Buffy needs me. I have to get to her. Something happened" Spike said
"What happened?" Jenny asked
"I can't get into details, but she's scared I need to go check on her." Spike said
"Alight here take my car." Jenny said giving him the keys to her car
"Thanks. I will be back in a little while." Spike rushed out the door.
Spike drove as quickly as he could to his girlfriends house. By the time he got there, he saw the police putting Hank Summers in the back of a police car in handcuffs. Spike ran up to the door where a cop stopped him, Spike said he was Buffy Summers boyfriend, and after getting an okay for him to go in. Spike rushed over to Buffy who was sitting with her mom, and sister. He gripped her tightly in a warm, comforting hug.
"Are you all alright?" Spike asked the Summer's women
"I'm alright Spike. You got here quickly." Joyce answered
"Well when my girl calls and said something bad has happened especially concerning that dirt bag ex-husband of yours." Spike said
"Well thank you. You're sweet." Joyce smiled
"Buffy are you alright?" Spike asked his girlfriend
"Yeah I'm better now. Sorry for making you leave the party." Buffy said
"Its alright Buffy I would rather be here with you anyways." Spike kissed her softly on the lips
"Awwwww you're so cute." Dawn squealed in the corner
Spike just laughed, Dawn was only eight, and idolized Buffy. Buffy loved her little sister, Buffy laughed at her silliness.
"Buffy why don't you go with Spike to the party? You two can talk on the way over there. About anything, maybe something important" Joyce hinted at Buffy
"Thanks for your subtly mom." Buffy sighed
"Talk about what?" Spike asked
"We will talk on the way to your house." Buffy said going up to her room to change
When Buffy came back down stairs she was wearing a white flowing mini skirt that had light pink flowers on it, and a light pink top that slid off her shoulders a bit. Spike couldn't stop looking at her, with a stupid grin on his face. Spike and Buffy went to his house for the rest of the party .On the way Spike was driving slower than he usually would so that Buffy would tell him what was going on.
"Buffy what did you need to talk to me about?" Spike asked
"Spike you love me right? Even though you're going to UCLA in a couple months?" Buffy asked
"Of course. I love you no matter what." Spike answered
"Well remember how the morning of graduation I threw up all over Cordy's shoes?" Buffy asked
"Yes. That was bloody hilarious. I never laughed so hard" Spike laughed at the memory
"Well that wasn't the first time. I had been feeling really sick for a while." Buffy looked down, eyes swelling with tears "Spike I'm pregnant" Buffy finally said
Spike slammed on his brakes, and stopped the car.
"What? Are you serious?" Spike asked
"Yes. I found out the results from my doctor today, I was going to tell you tonight at the party. I'm so sorry Spike." Buffy cried
"No don't be sorry. Luv I'm so bloody happy. I love you so much." Spike said taking her in his arms and kissing her.
"You're not mad?" Buffy asked
"No of course not. I'm excited. This is so great." Spike said smiling.
Spike and Buffy talked about the baby, and their future the whole way to his house. When they finally got there, everyone was still there, so they snuck in the door. Jenny noticed them right away and went over to them. Spike had his arm around Buffy, and couldn't stop smiling.
"Hello Buffy." Jenny greeted the girl
"Hi Mrs. Giles, sorry to drag Spike away. I had a mini crisis at my house." Buffy apologized
"That's quite alright dear. It didn't take too long." Jenny smiled
"Mum we need to talk to you and Da' later alright." Spike said
"Okay well once everyone leaves we can talk." Jenny agreed
Spike nodded then went into the living and saw his friends hanging out and talking. Spike and Buffy joined them and they were joking around, and sharing memories from high school. Hours passed by and the closer it go to the end of the party the more nervous Spike became. Spike knew how his father was going to react, and he knew he was going to lash out a Buffy. But the time finally came Spike and Buffy were sitting on the couch in the living room when Rupert, and Jenny joined them.
"So kids Jenny said you wanted to tell us something?" Rupert asked
"Yeah. Da' don't be mad." Spike said
"That's a poor way to start the conversation son." Rupert got worried
"I know but... This is important. I am happy about this, and this was in my plans, just happened a little sooner. Buffy is pregnant." Spike said
"Oh good lord." Rupert said
"Are you sure?" Jenny asked
"Yes. I got the confirmation today." Buffy asked
"How can you be so stupid William?" Rupert said almost yelling
"Da' I didn't do it on purpose. But I am glad that this happened." Spike said back
"Glad? What about school William. You let that girl ruin your future." Rupert yelled
"She is not just some girl Rupert. She is my girlfriend, and I love her no matter what you bloody well think. We are keeping this child, and damn you or anyone else who stands in the way. I will move out, and use my college trust fund to find a place to live, and get a job if I have to." Spike yelled back
"That money is for your future William and you know that." Rupert replied
"Exactly my future is sitting right here next to me carrying my child. Your grandchild. How can you not care?" Spike asked
"We care honey. We're just shocked." Jenny said
"No, I can honestly say I am not happy about this nor do I approve of this behavior. You can leave this house if you want to chose to live like that." Rupert said firmly
"Screw you Mr. Giles. Spike doesn't need you! He never did. He can stay with me and my mom. His friends and my family have been more of a family to him than you have ever been." Buffy yelled
"Da' you want me gone. I'm gone. Come on Buffy I'm gonna pack some stuff then leave." Spike said
Spike pulled Buffy up stairs and he started packing some clothes, books, and some cds into a couple duffel bags. Spike walked right out the door of his parents house, and took off on his bike with Buffy. They were going to ask Joyce if he could crash there for a while till he went to school. Even though he hated his father right now, he promised his mother, he would give college a try, and Spike never broke a promise.
Spike and Buffy got to her house, and they explained what had happened when Spike told his parents about the baby. Joyce was the first to know about it, and she was shocked but she was also excited about it, and proud her daughter had things so planned out. Spike asked if he could stay there for a while, and Joyce said that he was more than welcome.
Spike offered to stay on the couch but Joyce said since they were already having a baby there was no reason he couldn't share a room with Buffy. That made the couple very happy to hear, but of course they had a few ground rules. Spike just hugged Joyce, and thanked her over and over again.
Spike and Buffy went to bed a little after eleven. Spike fell asleep truly happy for the first time in a while.
