br"Do you really think you're pregnant?" Spike stood in the doorway for the second time that day. When Drusilla didn't respond he walked over to her, and knelt in front of her. Putting his hand under her chin, he gently pulled her head up so that she was looking into his eyes. "Sweetheart?"
"I didn't... I haven't used it." She said, making a gesture with the hand that still held the box.
"Well then, I think that maybe you should." And with that he picked her up, carried her into the bathroom, and put her down so she was sitting on the edge of the bath.
"I'll be right outside." Spike closed the door, and lent against the opposite wall, allowing himself to slide down into a sitting position.
He put his head in his hands. "Oh, bloody hell- what was it Dru was saying about a new arrival?"
br * * *
brAfter about five minutes, Spike began to get worried, "Baby, are you okay?"
He heard the sound of glass breaking, as something was dropped on the tiled floor. "That's it. Pet, I'm coming in."
He opened the door, Dru was sitting on the floor with her back against the bath. She was looking at a pile of glass that was once the soap dish. She had her hands over her ears. "What happened, ducks?"
"I don't know, I just dropped it. And Miss Edith started screaming. She's still screaming." Her hands were shaking as Spike grasped her fingers with his, pulling her up.
"Did you do the test, luv?"
"Yes, but we have to wait."
"Of course, but not in here." He put his arm around her waist- supporting her. And he led her back into their bedroom. They sat down on the bed, and Dru started to cry again.
"Shh, pet. Come on, it'll be okay... Shh, don't cry." He put his arms around her trembling shoulders, rocking her slowly back and forth.
Spike suddenly became very aware of the fact that his princess was wearing next to nothing, taking into account how thin the dressing gown was and how it had slipped down over one of her shoulders.
He traced her jaw line with his fingers, lifting her mouth up to meet his in a passionate kiss.
He ran his hands down her body, under the thin material of her gown- noting how good her marble cold skin felt beneath his palms.
She purred into his mouth, before pulling away so that she could look deep into his eyes. "I love you, my dark knight."
"And I love you, ducks. More than anything in the world." He pushed his princess back onto the bed and kissed her gentally.
"It's time." Dru said, putting her hand on Spike's chest to push him off her.
"You wait here, pet. I'll go and get it." He got up, kissed the back of her hand and walked into the bathroom.
Dru curled up on the bed, pulling one of the large pillows onto her lap, she began to rock back and forth, Waiting for Spike to return. To her it seemed like years- but in reality it was only a couple of minutes.

Oh fuck, this can't be happenning. She can't be, can she?. What are we bloodly well gonna do? Dru can't even look after a canary, she sure as hell can't handle a child! How can she be pregnant? She's a vampire..... She's having my baby./i

br"I'm having a baby," Dru looked up as Spike re-entered their bedroom, "iYour/i baby."
"Is it?" He looked down at her. The serious tone in his voice, unmissable.
"What?" iGod, she sounds so innocent, she must know what I mean./i
He sat on the bed. "Is it mine? Pet, am I the father?"
"Of course. Miss Edith says it couldn't be anyone else. I love iyou/i, who else could it be?"
"Angel-" iOh no, wait. Ha. He's sterile./i "You're right, Luv."
He streached out his arm, wrapping it around Dru's shoulders, and pulled her onto his lap. His fingers laced through her dark hair as she mumbled against Spike's chest, "What are we going to do, my sweet?"
"I don't know, Dru. I just don't know." iI really need to think about this, there is one person we could go to.../i
