Buffy ran straight to Spike's side, just as Cordy ran to Angel's
side.
"Hey" Spike said when he opened his eyes.
"Hey you" Buffy started "you human you" she said with a huge smile on her face. Sara looked over both former vampires to make sure that they were all right.
"You both look just fine" Sara said when she was all finished.
"Lets go on a picnic to celebrate" Dawn suggested, "I'm sure you're both just dying to go in the sun"
"A picnic sounds great Nibblet" Spike replied "and how about we have sandwiches I haven't had one of those in a long time"
"Sandwiches it is then" Buffy replied. Angel and Spike were both ensure of their first few steps into the sun, but they soon got used to the feeling. Spike insisted on pushing Dawn on the swings even though she said that she was too old for the swings. Buffy was sitting on a blanket watching Spike with Dawn.
"Spike is just like a big kid," she said to Willow and Tara.
"He sure gets along well with Dawn" Tara pointed out.
"Ya I know, he's great with her" Buffy replied.
"He's going to be a great daddy, you know" Willow said.
"I know, I'm just having trouble believing that this is really happening" Buffy looked like she was about to start crying. Her pregnancy was really starting to take a toll on her; she was getting really emotional a lot more often. Cordy and Angel had just come back from a short walk around the park.
"So Buffy how far along are you in your pregnancy now?" Cordy asked.
"About four months now" Buffy replied.
"It's really starting to be more noticeable," Tara pointed out.
"Ya I know" Buffy said putting a hand on her stomach "It's just starting to feel more real, before it didn't seem real" she said. Angel watched as Buffy looked over at Spike loving eyes.
Back at the house they got a phone call from the council.
"Hello?" Buffy answered the phone.
"Oh god"
"Okay"
"I understand"
"Bye"
"Who was it?" Spike asked when she came back into the living room.
"It was the council" she replied in a daze.
"What did they want?" Angel asked seeing the worried look on her face.
"They said that the first attack of the dark side is coming they don't want these babies to be born" she said putting a hand on her stomach "They will only be coming in groups of ten"
"What are 'they' exactly?" Willow asked the question that nobody else wanted to ask.
"They're demons, about 6 feet tall and their only special power is being able to read minds if they get within 5 feet of someone" Buffy explained.
"That doesn't sound too bad" Xander said.
"Buffy I don't want patrolling anymore" Spike said all of a sudden.
"What?" Buffy wasn't sure if she had heard him right.
"I agree Buffy you shouldn't be patrolling in your condition" Giles said.
"Come on I have to patrol, not because of the demons because of the fight I have to fight it relieves stress," she complained.
"Okay how about this you only patrol two nights a week and you can fight with me the other five" Spike suggested.
"Fine" she pouted.
"And plus I can think of some other ways for you to relieve stress too" he said with a smirk.
"Spike" she screamed very embarrassed.
"Well then I think we should go patrol now" Cordy suggested.
"Good idea" Xander agreed.
"I want to patrol tonight," Buffy stated.
"Okay then lets go" Spike said "But Buffy promise me you'll be very careful"
"I promise," she said "but wait what about Dawn?" she asked.
"Aww come on Buffy I really want to come" Dawn wined.
"But it's dangerous" Buffy replied.
"Buffy she'll be fine, we've all got her back" Cordy said.
"Uhn, fine" Buffy gave in "but don't fight unless you have to"
"It's a deal" Dawn said very happy that she got to along.
"Hey" Spike said when he opened his eyes.
