Buffy looked at the machine. She was unsure before, but deep down she
knew the answer. After the doctor had confirmed it for her she sat back in
the chair by the machine and sighed. She wanted to pick up the phone right
away to call Spike, but she just left there and she just wanted to give him
some breathing time. She walked upstairs to the bathroom. She wanted to
take a shower and relieve some stress. She turned on the water, hotter than
she usually put it and stepped in. As the hot water hit her skin she moaned
in relaxation. She could have gone to sleep right then, if she wasn't
standing that was. She washed her hair and the rest of her and got out. She
decided not to dry her long blonde hair like she usually did. Instead she
turned on her electrical blanket and waited until it heated up until she
went to sleep.
When Buffy woke it was five o'clock. She rubbed her eyes and got out of bed. She walked downstairs to find her mother and sister watching TV on the couch.
"Hi" she said quietly.
"Hi Buffy" Dawn said. "Do you want to watch TV with us?"
"Um. . .I don't think I'm wanted" she said looking at her mother, who looked back.
"Buffy of course you're wanted, you're my daughter and I love you and Dawn more than anything in life but I just. . ." she trailing off after noticing Dawn. "Let's talk in her" she said getting up and leading Buffy into the kitchen.
"Aw, why can't I hear?" Dawn whined.
"Because you're too young, now sit and watch the show okay" Joyce said as her and Buffy went and sat at the island in the kitchen. "Buffy I just don't know how you could have been so irresponsible, I thought you were smarter than that."
"Mom I didn't do it to hurt you, or so you'd be disappointed in me, I love Spike with all of my heart, and he loves me, look mom I just don't want you to hate me" Buffy said.
"Sweetie I don't hate you, I could never hate you, but I'm just thwarted with you" she said.
"I know. . .I'm sorry" she said.
"I heard the message, you know the doctor's message" Joyce said.
"Oh. . .good, uh, I'm gonna go to Spike's okay, he should know for sure" Buffy said.
"Okay, well. . .don't be out too late, don't stay over there tonight all right" she said.
"Okay, oh and for the record mom, Spike and I didn't do anything last night, in face we haven't done anything since-" she said, but Joyce cut in.
"Honey, I really don't want to know about my seventeen year old daughter's love live okay" she said with a little uncomfortable smile.
"Sorry" Buffy said and turned and started to walk away.
"Oh and honey" Joyce said and Buffy turned around. "For the record, I'm happy with the news."
"Me too" Buffy said and turned and left.
Buffy almost ran to the elevator and up the stairs to Spike's apartment. She quickly knocked on his door and he answered.
"Who in the bloody hell is tha-" he began and then stopped when he saw Buffy. "Oh hey luv."
"Hi" she said, half smiling.
"What with the manic ness?" he asked.
"I have to tell you something, something very important" Buffy said.
"Did the test come in?" he asked, growing more interested.
"Yeah, can I come in?" she asked.
"Uh, yeah sure of course" he said and opened the door wider so she could enter.
"Okay" she said sitting down on the couch. "Just so you know, my mom and I have made up completely."
"All right" he said also sitting.
"We talked and she doesn't hate me" Buffy said.
"Well I knew that already, nobody could hate you Buffy, not for long anyway, especially not your own mum" Spike said.
"Well it was, and is has and will forever will be one of my greatest fears, that my mom will suddenly turn on me, that I'll lose her trust, her love, ever since I was little, when she fell out of love with me dad" Buffy told him.
"But I thought you moved here because you're parents divorced" he said.
"I did" Buffy said.
"But you just moved here" he said, growing confused.
"Spike my mom and dad have been out of love for awhile, ever since I was like ten, Dawnie was only four, they would fight and scream every night, Dawn and I used to share a bedroom and when we heard the first glass break, or the first scream, she'd come over and we'd lay together, trying not to be scared, but we were just kids, fear was in our blood. . .so we'd lay there, covering our ears and shutting our eyes, hoping that it would only be a small fight this time, like one of them stepped on the other's foot, or one of them took the remote from the other" Buffy explained.
"But it was bigger?" Spike asked.
"No. . .it was smaller, the stupidest thing and they'd. . .they'd throw things, yell scream, slam doors, he even hit her a few times, and she hit him a lot more times than that, their marriage wasn't good. . .it was like it would be like if Lucifer and Medusa got together" she said.
"So they were both evil?" he asked.
"To each other" Buffy told him.
"But not to you and your sister?" he confirmed.
"Not usually, sometimes they'd get caught up in yelling at each other, and one of us would ask a question and they'd yell at us, but not intentionally" Buffy explained.
"Oh. . .so tell me, am I gonna be a father or. . .?" 'am I off the hook' he thought and shook is head regretting even thinking it.
"Spike. . ."
