Buffy had not told spike. It had been three days and she had not told him. Spike was worried more and more.

She tore her mind from those thoughts as a vampire jumped out in front of her. Grabbing him by the shabby leather coat collar, she threw him to the ground, and raised her stake.

The vampire anticipated her next move, kicked her back, and stood tall again.

Lunging forward, Buffy hit his jaw with her fist, and brought her stake down. His hand gripped her wrist, and with one swift move, he turned it on her. The stake tore into her stomach, ripping her skin. She groaned once, and looked down to the bloodstained shirt.

The baby..

Scared, and hurt, she pulled the stake out, and rammed it into his chest. One heartbeat, and he was gone. Ashes on the ground.

Buffy turned away, and began to run. She had to get somewhere. ANYWHERE. Tara would help. Tara would always help.





Spike sat down on the couch thoroughly upset. She would not tell him whatever was bothering her. Dawn sighed beside him. "Got any info on what's up with her?"

He shook his head. "None."





Tara gasped as she saw a bloody Buffy standing in the hallway of her complex.

"Help please. I need you to bandage me up." The wicca nodded and took her by the arm, leading her inside. "What happened buffy?"

Buffy gasped in pain. "I was fighting and the vamp turned the stake on me. Will I make it through?" Tara looked at the wound and nodded.

"It didn't hurt your stomach or anything really big like that but it did hit something. That's where all the blood's coming from." Buffy sat up as Tara wrapped the bandaging around her stomach.

"He hit your uterus. Like where a baby would stay if you were pregnant."

Buffy's blood went cold. "So if I had been pregnant the baby would've died?"

Tara nodded. "Thank god your not pregnant huh?"

Nodding tearfully, the slayer pulled her shirt back on. "Thank you. I better be getting home."

Dawn rolled over with a groan, as a dark figure sat down beside her on the bed. "Buffy?"



Buffy stayed still for several minutes, until finally she looked up to her sister. "Dawn I have not been entirely honest with you and spike. I am.was." she closed her eyes. "Pregnant."

Dawn stared. "What do you mean were. pregnant?" Buffy pulled up her shirt revealing the wrapped wound. "He kind of got stabbed."

Dawn gently hugged her. "Oh god I'm so sorry buffy."

"Me too dawn. Me too."



******A couple of days later*******



"Come on spike!!"

"No! He shouted." "I am not telling anymore bloody horror stories and that's that!"

He slumped down onto the couch as dawn slid up close to him. "Please?"

"Why?"

"No reason! I just want to hear them!!" she shouted.

He growled. "You're exactly like your sister! Always keeping bloody reasons to you and you only!"

dawn stood angrily. "She didn't tell you because she was scared! I would be too having some vampires baby!" she stopped and held her hand to her mouth. "Oops." Spike stood up. "Baby? She's going to have a baby?"

dawn nodded. "Your baby."

He shook his head. "No."

Dawn nodded. "She got hurt by some vampire and the baby died. That's why she won't come out of her room. She's sad. She wanted to have it but she was scared to tell you."

Spike looked down at the ground in surprise. Poor buffy.

Dawn hugged him. "I know you both would've loved a baby."

"Excuse me." He whispered pulling away from dawn and slowly climbing the steps.

She was in there in her room crying her eyes out and now he knew why. Spike pushed open the door quietly, watching her rub her shoulders as she looked out the window.

Buffy's lip trembled as she saw him standing in the doorway..

"Spike. I." She started but spike shushed her and they hugged each other tightly as if the whole world would fall away if they did not hang on. "I'm so sorry." She sobbed onto his shoulder, as his hands ran down her hair soothingly. "Shhhhh. It'll be okay."

He put his hand on her stomach and she looked up at him. "I can't believe that we had a baby." She nodded. "had! But I messed it up."

Spike lifted her chin and looked into her eyes. "You didn't mess it up. The bloody vampire did that. Right?" she nodded slowly and laid her head on his chest as she began to cry again. "Spike if it had been a girl what would you had named it?"

"I think Anne."

"Spike that was probably our one chance."

"Probably. But you know what? I'll be happy just to have you here. I love you buffy." Tears ran down her cheeks, as she saw the care etched on his face. "I love you too.."

Spike felt buffy move his hand back to her stomach. "For now can we pretend it's still there?" she asked as she laid her head back on his chest. Spike ran his other head down her back. "Yeah. Let's do that."

Dawn closed the door with a sigh. She had lost a chance to be an aunt but she felt bad for spike and buffy too. If they were to stay together, then they'd never be parents again. It had been their one chance.



Well I thought it was THE END but Mark and my email confirmed that I should continue So just keep on reading I have lots more chapters up.;-)
