Discalimer: I dont not own Buffy or any chartcer in that universe.
Three Months Later:
In an apartment on some street in SunnyDale, two people sit together talking about life.
"Home, this is what a home should feel like," Faith muses. "I don't think I have ever felt this happy about living with someone."
"So Faith what are you doing tonight?"
"Same old same old vampires, demons, and end of the world. Nothing big."
Xander just sits back on the couch and looks from Faith back to the TV.
"I love you Faith. I am happy you are living with me and I am happy that you were able to redeem yourself after that whole trying to kill us thing. I couldn't be here if you did kill any of my family."
Faith looked at him and thought about the statement. Love he loves me. After everything I have done, he loves me. Then it hits her some memory so deeply buried that she hope to have forgotten it.
Flashback:
"I'm pregnant. That is what your doctor says I am pregnant."
The Mayor looks at the girl that feels like his daughter, "Yes Faith you are."
"This can't be happening I haven't in a couple months or so. Xander was the last-," Faith stops right there and relives those moments. "It belongs to Xander."
"Most likely but still you are going to be a mom and being at the right hand of the future demon ruler then that child will have everything it wants." The Mayor says with a smile that shows pride for his slayer.
"I don't want it. Call that doctor so I can have an abortion." Faith yelled as tears filled her eyes.
"Faith that is going a bit far. You can keep the child and I can keep you safe and help raise it. It will be my grandchild anyway."
"No. Either you call or I can go somewhere else."
"Okay Faith but I hope you are making the right choice."
"I am. There is no way that the farther of it would want to help and I am not going to go through that single mom stuff."
End Flashback:
Faith stands up from the couch and goes to her own room. She sits on the bed and starts crying. She cries so hard she does not feel two arms wrap around her to comfort her.
"I am sorry Faith. I though it should be said so you know that I do care about you and I want you to care about me."
His words are filled with love and compassion. They manage to sting more. "I did kill your family," was all she was able to get out.
"No you didn't. Buffy, Willow, Dawn, Tara, and Giles are still alive. Hell Anya and my parents are still a live. You have not killed any of my family. So stop that crazy talk."
"I kill our family."
"Our family? What are you talking about we don't have one."
"During my time with the Mayor I found out I was pregnant. Doing quick math it was yours. I aborted because I knew that I could give in the love in should get and you would never have joined me to even be a part of its life. So I killed it so I wouldn't have to worry about it."
"Ohhh" Xander just sat there holding her. His arms did not move as he processed what was just told to him.
"Oh god I am so sorry. I will leave tonight. Leave SunnyDale completely and never come back. I am sorry I killed your family and I am sorry I never told you."
Faith broke out of his hold and started to move around the room to collect what she needed.
"Boy or Girl?"
"What?"
"Was it a boy or girl?"
"I don't think that-"
Xander stopped her talking and repeated the statement louder, "Was it a Boy or a Girl Faith. Tell me if you know but don't leave till I get my answer."
"The doctor believed it would have been a girl." Faith continues to collect some stuff.
"Hope" was all Xander said.
Faith looked at him. "What?"
"Hope Harris daughter of Xander and Faith Harris. She would have been as beautiful and as strong as her mother. Thank you Faith for telling me."
"Aren't you going to be yell, scream, hit me or something?"
"No, I love you to much. You are still in pain from it and I want to help. Therefore, you can leave and compound the mistake or stay and build a future with me that might lead to another Hope or Alex. I would go with ever way."
"Alex? You think I would want a son name Alex. Michael, can we do Michael instead?
"Only if you stay and we can get to that point. If so then yes. Just do not ever try to leave me again."
Faith walked over to the bed and sat next to Xander and gave him a hug. He turned slightly and hugged her back. For the first time in the two months they lived together, they slept in the same bed wrapped in each other's arms with a great future ahead of them.
