Surprise Part 2

"Yea Giles, there getting married" Dawn said in to the phone. "please be happy for her, a lot of things have happened in the last few weeks and she would really love it for you to support her"

"I understand Dawn." Giles said calmly "My flight leaves tomorrow night, see you then"

"Great, see you than" Dawn said and hung up.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Buffy!" Dawn said shaking her sister as she knelt next to the bed. "wake up!"

"Whaûok Spike go start the shower" Buffy said rolling over.

"BUFFY!" Dawn yelled.

"What? Oh Dawnie!" Buffy said looking at her sister with a look of embarrassment on her face. "what time is it?" Buffy said climbing out of bed. She looked to her sleeping lover and smiled as his dream filled her head. She and him were sitting beside a pond having a picnic in the nude. Buffy pushed Dawn in to the hallway so they could talk and not wake up Spike.

"I just called Giles" Dawn confessed.

"Oh boy, I think I am gonna need a coffee for this one" Buffy said and headed towards the kitchen. When the two girls arrived Dawn got out the coffee and Buffy filled up the coffee pot with water, once the coffee was set to perk, Buffy and Dawn sat down at the island.

"What did you tell him?" Buffy asked first.

"Buffy its been a week in a half since Spike purposed and you still hadn't phoned Giles, I miss him, and I want him here." Dawn confessed.

"Wow your just choc full of admittance tonight" Buffy observed and Dawn nodded.

"Anyway I told Giles about the prophecy and the power's and the coronation and what happened to me. As soon as I said the words, Monarch's of the demon world, he mumbled something about his books, he said that it was written in the book of Raybon. He said it basically told the destiny of two great warriors and the child they would produce. It has some other stuff in it, mostly about apocalypses and battles, the court of the monarch's and the basic idea of the chalice of life."

"That would be you" Buffy said.

"Yea, that would be me. So this was really all forseen and supposed to happen?" Dawn asked.

"Looks that way honey" Buffy said moving some hair out of her sister's face. "What did Giles say about the whole thing though?"

"He said, and I almost fell over when he said it, æit was about time that those two stopped arguing and found another way to vent the sexual frustration'. Can you believe that?" Dawn asked surprised.

"no I can't" Buffy answered. "did he say anything else?"

"He said that he wasn't happy about it, but at least you finally found someone that can make you happy, and since it seems that you two were meant to be than there was no stopping it, and that he understands"

"Well good, I wouldn't feel right about this if Giles didn't approve." Buffy said hugging her sister, she glanced over to the coffee pot and when she noticed it was done, she got up and got herself a cup.

"Oh he approves, and he's leaving England tomorrow night" Dawn said just as Buffy was taking a sip of her coffee. Buffy immediately spit out the contents of her mouth and sprayed it all over Dawn.

"Eww Buffy! If I wanted some coffee I would have got some myself" Dawn exclaimed whipping some off of her face.

'Buffy?' Spike asked, his voice filling her head. æwhere are you pet?'

'Downstairs, talking to Dawn' she answered reaching for a towel. She handed it to Dawn and then went to grab a washcloth from under the sink so she could wipe off the counter.

'Mind if I join you' he asked getting out of bed.

'I think you better, Dawn just told me some interesting news'

'On my way' he said heading towards the stairs.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Giles is going to arrive tomorrow night" Buffy said the room. "I want everything to be perfect so I am hiring a cleaning service to come to the house tomorrow afternoon, Dawn will be at school and Spike and I have an appointment with a wedding coordinator" Buffy said with a commanding tone."I am having dinner made and delivered, Tara and Willow have already promised that they would be there when its delivered and have everything set up for when we get back. Giles' plane arrives at 6:30 and Spike and I are going to pick him up so I want everyone to be at the house when we get back. Everyone clear?" The scoobies nodded faithfully and Buffy smiled.

"I have to go to the store for some things, I'll be back in a few minutes" Bufffy said waving and walking out the door.

"Good god she's like a Nazi event organizer!" Xander quipped. "Does she even know that its her birthday tomorrow?"

"I think she forgot" Tara said patiently. "with everything that has being going on and all"

"Well she is going to get a reminder" Spike said puffing on a cigarette.

"Can she hear you" Willow asked.

"Nope. We've both gotten really good at the blocking thing, I can hear if she wants me and I know what her thoughts are but she can't hear mine unless I let her..its pretty neat. Right now she is getting mad at the price of double chocolate mint Ice cream at the store, and now she's thinking about licking ice cream off my-ouch...umm I'd rather leave that part out if you don't mind" Spike said wincing at Buffy ice cream thoughts.

"Thanks for that" Xander said gratefully.

"So anyway, when I called Giles the other day he told me he was coming home for Buffy's birthday anyway so its not like he's getting up and leaving on a whim." Dawn said twirling her hair.

"Wouldn't wanna put the watcher out" Spike smirked. "ok so decorations?" he asked continuing the discussion about the party.

"As soon as you and Buffy leave Xander and Anya are coming over and were going at it" Willow answered blushing at the dirtiness of that "I mean the decorations not each other"

"Oh pooh!" Anya said pouting. Off Xander's look she stated "what an orgy looked really fun when we rented that porno!"

"You guys rented porn?" Dawn asked sitting up.

"Yes Xander said it makes the experience of sex more fun. Personally I don't need to see other people have sex in order for me to get aroused Xander does that really well all by himself" Anya stated proudly.

"Anya! You really need to start taking into account that Dawn is in the room when you say these things!" Xander said to his fiancé.

"Oh whelp leave er alone, Dawn has heard worse, and your fiancé just payed you one of the best compliments a guy could get so if I were you I would shut the fuck up" Spike winking at Anya.

"He's right Xand" Willow pointed out. Xander slumped in his chair defeated for a second and then sat back up and leaned over to kiss Anya.

"Thanks honey" Xander said apologetically. "and if it counts for anything, I don't need porn either, I just rented it for us because you wanted to try new things"

"I meant like strawberries and whip cream, or handcuffs or whips, or leather, or oh edible underwear-" Anya said bluntly, everyone cutting her off with a loud resounding 'ANYA!'

"Buffy is at the check out counter" Spike said quickly.

"I ordered a birthday cake" Dawn said proudly, "the bakery said they would deliver it to the house at quarter to 7, I told them there is another 20 dollars in it for them if they deliver it on time"

"That was a good idea pet" Spike said standing up. "Buffy wants to go home and then go to dinner, so we better get going"

"K" the teen answered.

"See ya guys later" Spike said heading for the door putting his arm around Dawn.

"Spike" Tara said getting up and walking over to the ex-vampire.

"What pixie" Spike said smiling at the blonde.

"Buffy's present?" she asked knowingly.

"yea?"

"Good idea" Tara said with a smile.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The next day...

"I see your wedding in red and white. Candles, red and white roses, oh and silver shimmer chiffon..oh this is going to be fun! And you two are just so gorgeous together!" the man said. He had introduced himself as Dan.

"You'll have to excuse my boyfriend he's a little excited" the short red head women who's name was Nicole said.

'he's gay' Spike commented

'yep' Buffy agreed.

"You two do this as a partnership?" Spike asked sitting next to Buffy on the heart shaped sofa. They both smiled at each other lovingly and then smiled at Buffy and Spike.

"Have you two picked a date?" Nicole asked.

"well we were thinking maybe March 1 st" Buffy answered.

"That's great, beginning of the ides of march" Dan quipped.

"Yea" Spike said half-laughing.

"So we'll be getting back to you next week, we have what we need to work out a basic plan" Nicole said pleasantly.

"Great, you have my number" Buffy said standing up.

"We do" Dan answered reaching his hand out to Spike's. The two men shook and they left.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Happy birthday Buffy" Spike said handing her a black rectangular velvet box. Her and Spike were sitting at the espresso pump enjoying cups of hot chocolate. He kissed her softly her on lips as he handed her his present. Buffy opened it and just stared at the beautiful necklace inside. It was silver with small diamonds embedded into the thin chain, the pendent was a small silver heart with a English font R in it.

"It belonged to my mother, she gave it to me a long time ago. She told me that when I found the women I wanted to marry to give it to her" he said as Buffy smiled. "open the locket pet". She did as he asked a saw a picture of her and Spike inside. The other side was empty.

"When our daughter is born then you can put a picture of her in there" Spike said off of Buffy's look at the empty spot.

"Thank-you Spike" she said sincerely. She kissed him full on the lips and ran her fingers through his hair.

"You loved Dru didn't you?" she asked out of the blue.

"I did, at least I think I did. I know that I will always care for her, even though she was a little nuts, she was a sensational women. I guess I did love her, but it seems like its not important anymore. I love you more than I have ever loved anyone" Spike stated to her his blue eyes sparkling.

"I know you do Spike, I feel the same way. My love for Angel was so intense. But you were right that time you said that he and I would never be friends, and that's what was missing and wrong with our relationship. That's why our relationship is so much better, we hated each other first, then we became truce buddies, we then became friends and now were getting married" Buffy said her eyes full of love and desire.

"I love you" he said kissing her again, his tongue touched her bottom lips and she opened her mouth. They kissed with more passion then ever before, the world fell away and it was only them. It was like time stopped, every sound put on pause, everything but their bodies gone.

"Geez make out much?" Dawn said sitting into a chair at the table ruining the moment.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"what do you mean the cake isn't going to be ready?" Willow screamed in to the phone. "Someone called and ordered it yesterday! There is even a twenty dollar insurance that we have that cake here before 7:00!!"

"I'm sorry ma'am but the oven broke down." a timid voice spoke into the phone.

"Look again" Willow said taking the phone away from her mouth. She closed her eyes and quickly chanted "heatous machine incindra".

"Well I'll be damned, I swear it was broken..." he exclaimed flabbergasted.

"So the oven is working?" Willow asked.

"Yes it seems so" the man answered.

"Can you have it cooked and finished within the next two hours?" Willow asked frantic. 'They had to have a cake, it just wouldn't be right without one. Everything had to be perfect tonight, nothing could go wrong' Willow thought.

"Yes but we would have to make only that" he answered annoyed.

"Look, I'll pay you more just get it done and here before 7!" Willow said and hung up the phone before the man had a chance to answer. Willow walked into the living room to find Tara and Dawn hanging up streamers and decorations and Xander and Anya moving things around for the party.

"The cake will be here on time! As long as Spike can keep Buffy out of the house for the next to hours things will be fine." Willow said handing Tara a decoration.

"You know what you just did don't you?" Xander said turning around.

"What?" Willow asked innocently thinking he was referring to her use of magic earlier.

"You jinxed it! Buffy will come home before she has to and the surprise will be ruined" Xander answered.

"Oh" Willow said a bit relieved that no one had realised her indulgence.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"lets go home Spike, we don't need to pick up Giles for another hour, and we could get in a little..umm Birthday activity" Buffy said with a seductive glance. Her and Spike were on the beach laying on a blanket looking at the stars.

"No luv, we don't need to waste the gas" Spike said blowing out smoke from his fag.

'What?' Buffy thought in her head. She had been trying to enter Spike's mind for hours but he was still blocking her and she couldn't figure out why.

"I just want to spend some time with my lady will I can luv, is that to much to ask? Your pregnant and soon it won't just be us anymore. It will be us and a little girl!" Spike said running his fingers through her hair.

"Why are you blocking me Spike?" Buffy asked sitting up.

"No reason, just am" Spike said calmly. Even though in his head he was trying to find a good excuse.

"No reason? There must be a reas-" she protested but he silenced her with a kiss.

"There is no reason luv" he said and let down the barrier between them. His thoughts flooded her mind and she staggered a bit. He was thinking about his mother before she died. How beautiful she looked at that moment, and how glad his mother would have been to have seen him with her.

'See luv, not hiding a thing' he thought kissing her closed eyes.

"Even if you were, I don't care. I just don't feel connected to you when you block me off. I don't do it to you that often!" she said with a small pout.

"Oh! Look at that lip! I am gonna bite it" he said and attacked her bottom lip with his teeth, nibbling on it slightly.

"William! Don't you start anything you can't finish!" Buffy said melting at his touch.

"Oh I can finish, but your watcher might be waiting for a bit" he said and silenced her quickly with a passionate and fiery kiss that sent her body chills.

'How many more places are we going to have sex?' Buffy exclaimed in her mind.

'Every where luv, until we have concord the world!' he answered undoing her blouse.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

7:34 pm...



"Oh my god Giles were so sorry!" Buffy said running up and hugging her rightful father.

"not to worry Buffy" Giles said smiling and hugging her back. "I am sure you were either busy or contained for a few minutes" he said eyeing Spike. Spike bounced on his heals and then moved to take Giles' bag for him.

"We were held back for a few minutes" Buffy said letting go of him. "but we are here now and its time to party!" she said and the three headed for the car.
