Buffy tapped her fingers on her knees, nervously. What would spike do if she died again? What would dawn do? She didn't want to die. Not now when she had all she ever wanted.

"Buffy summers?" Buffy picked up her jacket and followed the nurse down a long hall towards the examination room. The nurse closed the door quietly, pulling a pen from behind her ear. "Okay miss summers. I need you to put this on."

Handing the short paper gown over, she turned away, giving Buffy some sense of privacy. "Now miss summers. What exactly has brought you here today?"

The slayer sighed, another queasy spell washing over her. "I just threw up this morning and I don't know why. I like haven't had a fever in years. I checked my temperature and I don't have one." The nurse nodded, writing down the complaints and then hanging the chart on the door. "Dr. Stevens will be with you in just a moment."

Buffy nodded and sat down on the bed. What could be wrong with her? She had gotten clawed a few nights ago by some monster but the cut had healed with no infection. Maybe it just was a little stomach bug. Oh gosh who knew anymore? Being a slayer, wasn't easy, or predictable.

Spike snuck into the kitchen and threw off the blanket. "Buffy? Buffy I'm home!" he shouted. No answer. He walked into the living room to find it empty. He was about to climb the stairs when he saw a note taped to the door.

Dear spike,

I am feeling a little sick. But no worries I am going to doctor Stevens and he will tell me what's wrong. I'm sorry we did not get to have our little day together but I plan to have one this coming weekend. I miss you already and I hope to see you when I get home. Make sure dawn eats a snack but nothing big and please don't go telling her horror stories again. I know she likes them but I don't like hearing about them afterwards.

See you then.

Buffy

Spike sighed in relief and went to the living room and switched on the TV. The movie was Dracula, and chuckling, he settled down for an afternoon of black and white horror.

Dropping her bag to the floor, Dawn sat down beside Spike.

"Hey, where's Buffy?" He smiled. "She's at the doctor's for something. Oh and you need to get a snack." Dawn smirked and slumped down further into the sofa.

"Your watching Dracula?"

"Just go get a snack please?"

dawn picked up the remote and turned off the TV. "Please tell me some more horror stories?" she pleaded.

Spike grabbed the remote back. "Buffy told me not to."

She pouted. "Are you actually listening to her?" he nodded fiercely.

"Fine." She muttered as she grabbed her book bag and headed up the steps. Spike shook his head. "Damn teenagers and their obsessions."

Buffy pulled her shirt back on as the doctor went to get the results from the lab. She was fully clothed, and very happy about it too.

She jumped as the door opened and the doctor came back in with a handful of papers. He sat down across from her and removed his glasses. "Miss summers have you been active with anyone lately?" she stared at him a little confused. "What do you mean active?"

"Sexually active." he added.

She nodded slowly. "Yes. My fiancé." He smiled with relief.

"Well Miss summers I think you will be most pleased to hear this diagnosis. Your pregnant."

She stared at him, in shock, finally able to squeak. "For how long?"

"I would say for about a month now. You and your fiancé should be very happy."

A lump formed in Buffy's throat as she tried not to cry. "This is impossible." She whispered. The doctor looked at her again. "Well have you used protection during intercourse?" he asked.

She shook her head tearfully. "No?" the doctor smiled. "Then you are most definitely pregnant."

She took the folder from him, not even noticing the pat on the back, followed by endless praise and congratulations. She was pregnant.with a vampire's baby. with Spike's baby.
