Spike knelt down, picked Buffy up, and laid her on the couch.
"Hey Red, can ya bring down some alcohol and cotton to see if we can wake Buffy back up?" He yelled towards the upstairs. Spike went to get a pillow and propped it up under her head. He then turned to Lanceton. "Why don't I get Buffy up to her room so she can rest, and you can explain what's going on to me."
"Yes of course, I guess all the wedding plans got the best of her."
"I'll be back in a sec."
Spike picked Buffy up and took her upstairs. While going up he saw Willow and told her to go up to Buffy's room and leave the stuff on her dresser.
Willow shook her head and went to the bathroom to get the supplies he had asked for.
When Spike came back down he sat next to Lanceton and they discussed all the issues. He told Spike that since he and Buffy were getting married, that it would help their chances of keeping Dawn. Also, they were going to have to do a routine check of the preferences Spike had given him on his "job". Spike understood all of it and made mental notes on what he was going to tell Buffy. After everything was said it was time for the social worker to go.
"Goodbye and thanks for your help. I will call you with details on the wedding tomorrow."
Spike wanted to make sure Buffy would be alright so he decided to stay. He also figured as soon as she woke that she would want to know what he and the worker talked about and he wanted to be there to tell her.

The next morning Buffy woke up puzzled. *How the hell did I get here?*
"Mornin' Slayer, was wondering when you were gonna finally wake up."
"Spike, what are you doing here?"
Spike the tray on the night - stand. "
I'm bringin' you your breakfast. Just a preview of the perks you get as my wife."
Buffy sat up and pulled the tray closer.
"So it wasn't just some horrible nightmare."
"Nope, we're engaged, and this is for you."
Spike reached in to his duster and pulled out a little blue box. Inside was a beautiful ring. The design was a two silver dolphins wrapping around a Garnet gem, the color of January's birthstone. Buffy looked like she was about to cry.
"It's so beautiful." she looked up at him. "You didn't have to do this."
"Yea well, it's tradition."
"You don't believe in tradition."
"Bloody hell slayer you want it or not?"
Buffy gave the box back to him and stuck out her index finger.
"Well, if you're going by tradition you have to get down on one knee."
Spike gave her a smirk then knelt down. "The thing's I do for you."
He re-opened the box and slipped the ring on her finger, while standing by the door were Dawn and Willow
"Awwwww" they said in unison.
"Oh why don't ya sod off."
Both girls walked in. Dawn went to Spike and said,
"So you finally got the guts to give her the ring."
