Chapter 3: Past Memories

Author Note: I hope you like this chapter. Sorry it took me awhile to write it. Give me your hints and stuff you know.

Disclaimer: I don't own anyone Joss Does. But I made up Haven and June. The song in the story is One Sweet Day by Boys II Men featuring Mariah Carey. And Christian A. Beautiful.



Haven woke up in startled. Brushed back her hair from her face. She burst into tears. She got up from her bed and headed towards her daddy's room. She opened the door and walked towards the bed. She stared at his figure.
"Daddy." said Haven in tears.
Will woke up and saw his daughter crying. "Haven." he said in a raspy voice. He sat up in the bed. Haven walked towards her daddy and hugged him with her dear life. Will stoked her hair and kissed the top of her head. Haven cried silently while her daddy was protecting her. Haven crawled into bed with her father. Will hug her close to his warm chest and rocks slowly back and forth. "Shh, Hun...it's alright..." She sniffles, letting out a wavery sigh. Tears still flowed down her soft pink cheeks. He closes his eyes, trying to hide the tears forming under his lids. Quietly he begins to sing, "Sorry...I never told you...All I...wanted to say...And now it's too late to hold you...'Cause you've flown away...So far away...." Her raspy cries lose their vitality, they too, get quiet. "Never had I imagined.... Living without your smile...Feeling and knowing you hear me...It keeps me alive.... Alive..." His whispering singing voice gradually gets louder throughout his song...his daughter leaving the lighted reality...drifting off into her sweet dreamland. "And I know you're shining down on me from heaven.... Like so many friends we've lost along the way...And I know eventually we'll be together...One sweet day ...Eventually I'll see you in heaven..." He quiets back down, back to his raspy whisper, "Darling, I never showed you...Assumed you'd always be there...I took your presence for granted...But I always cared ...And I miss the love we shared...And I know you're shining down on me from heaven.... Like so many friends we've lost along the way...And I know eventually we'll be together...One sweet day ...Eventually I'll see you in heaven...Although the sun will never shine the same...I'll always look to a brighter day...Lord I know when I lay me down to sleep...You will always listen as I pray...And I know you're shining down on me from heaven....Like so many friends we've lost along the way...And I know eventually we'll be together...One sweet day ...Eventually I'll see you in heaven..Sorry...I never told you...all I...wanted to say......" Tears now spilled over his eyelashes and down his cheeks, spilling onto his chest and on the hair of Haven. He noticed she fell asleep. He leans his head back on the wall and weeps. "June..." He cries, daughter to his chest, until he, too, fell asleep.


Will wake to find that his daughter was still asleep in his arms. He smiled and kissed her forehead. He brushed back her hair and gently laid her down on the bed. He stood up and turned towards to watch her sleep. 'God so much like her mother.' thought Will. He ran his hand through his hair. He turned towards the door and headed downstairs. He walked into the living room and looked around. He had to get ride of some of her things. He walked over to her chest. He opened up and picked up her and his wedding pictures. "Good times." He said. He laid the picture ablum on the carpet. He went through the chest that had her painting stuff and her old pictures of her family. He ran his hand through his hair.

"Will can you change haven's diaper?" yelled June as her voice was carried through the kitchen. Will got up from the couch in the living room and walked up the stairs towards the baby room. He could hear baby haven giggling and cooing. He face brightened and walked towards the crib. He picked her up and set her on the changing table. He undid her snap on pant and undid the diaper. A smell rose from the diaper. A giggle escaped from the baby's mouth. Will stepped back and waved the clean diaper back and front in front of Haven. She smiled and giggled more. He laughed when he saw her face brightened up.

Will laugh at that memory. He picked up June's shirt that was in the laundry basket that was close to him. He smelled it and smiled. He rested his head in his hands.

" Buffy your not going to tell him. Buffy are you that stupid. He's in pain.. His wife just died. Buffy get some heart in you.. He don't love you anymore.. We have been through this.. Leave David out of this problem." said Dawn yelling into the telephone.

"David needs to know who his father is.. I'm not taking this away from him Dawn." said buffy driving towards Will's house. David was in the back asleep in his car seat. She pulled up towards the house. She sighed into the phone.
"Dawn I'm here I'm going to tell him.. He needs to know his own son.. I will talk to you later this evening," said Buffy as she hung up on her own sister. Buffy laid her head on the steering wheel. She pulled the keys out of the car and opened the door. She got out and walked towards the passenger side of the car. She opened the door and helped David out of the car seat. She woke him up.
"Hey sweetie. We are here," said Buffy. David wrapped in his mothers arms opened his eyes and looked around. "Mommy, this isn't home." said David as he wiped his eyes.
" I know Hun but this is a place i want you to meet someone." said Buffy as she set David on the ground and grabbed his hand and shut the car door with her hip. She brushed her hair from her face and they both walked towards the front door.

Don't look at me Every day is so wonderful
And suddenly, it's hard to breathe
Now and then, I get insecure
From all the fame, I'm so ashamed



Buffy sighed and looked at David and smiled. She raised her hand and rang the doorbell. She froze as she heard his footsteps. She took a deep breath.


I am beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring me down
I am beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring me down
So don't you bring me down today

David looked around and had no clue what he was doing here. His mommy was really pretty. He wonders why his daddy didn't want to stay with them. Him and his auntie Dawn.



To all your friends, you're delirious
So consumed in all your doom
Trying hard to fill the emptiness
The piece is gone and the puzzle undone
That's the way it is

Will heard the doorbell and quickly snapped out of the past and quickly got up to answer the door.

You are beautiful no matter what they say
Words won't bring you down
You are beautiful in every single way
Yes, words won't bring you down
Don't you bring me down today...

No matter what we do
(no matter what we do)
No matter what they say
(no matter what they say)
When the sun is shining through
Then the clouds won't stay
And everywhere we go
(everywhere we go)
The sun won't always shine
(sun won't always shine)
But tomorrow will find a way
All the other times
Will opened the door and saw His past came to haunt him. He saw Buffy standing on the front porch with a little boy. He ran his hand through his hair and sighed. He looked up in buffy eyes and both of their eyes locked at each other.


We are beautiful no matter what they say
Yes, words won't bring us down
We are beautiful no matter what they say
Yes, words can't bring us down
Don't you bring me down today?

Don't you bring me down today?
Don't you bring me down today?
