"Buffy, honey are you ready yet?" Joyce asked.
"I'm not coming out" Buffy said.
"Why not?" Dawn asked.
"Because I'm fat and I don't look good" Buffy pouted.
"Oh honey, this is you're prom you have to come out" Joyce said. They were at Macy's and Buffy was in the dressing room trying on dresses. It had been a month since Spike and Buffy moved into their new place. Spike's dad had given them 10,000 dollars for a late wedding present. With that money they could rent a really nice place.
"Mom I can't go to my prom looking fat" Buffy whined.
"Buffy, you're pregnant, not fat and me and mom think you're beautiful, now come out" Dawn said.
"Oh. . .okay" Buffy said and came out. She was wearing a royal blue satin gown that was full length. It had spaghetti straps and was high cut. The dress was embroidered with shinny little beads. It still looked beautiful with her hair put in a messy ponytail and her white sneakers that were on her feet.
"Oh, h-honey you look. . .you look. . ." Joyce said trying to find the right word.
"Magnificent" Dawn finally said.
"Thank you" Buffy said looking down at the dress.
"Sweetie this is definitely the one" Joyce said.
"Yeah, it's perfect" Dawn said.
"Do you think Spike will like it?" Buffy asked.
"Honey Spike would love you if you were wearing a paper beg and mud on your face, but yes, he'll love it" Joyce said, Buffy smiled.
"Okay" Buffy breathed. They bought the dress and some cute shoes to go with it.
After the shopping trip Buffy went home. She didn't want Spike to see the dress until prom so she gave it to her mom to keep at her house. She walked in the front door and Spike came down the stairs with a towel around his waist and bleach in his hair.
"What are you doing honey?" Buffy asked.
"Bleaching my hair" he said and she smiled.
"I don't think I've ever seen you do that" she said putting down her purse.
"Well that's because I've never done it around you" he said and sat down on the couch.
"Spike, what color is your actual hair color?" Buffy asked also sitting on the couch.
"I'm not telling" he said playfully.
"Oh come on baby I won't tell anyone" Buffy begged.
"No" Spike said.
"So no one knows your true hair color?" Buffy asked.
"Well, only Willow, but I said if she told anyone I'd kill her so you're not getting anything out of her" Spike smirked.
Please, please with cherries and whipped cream on top" she said. Spike smiled at his wife.
"Hungry pet?" he smiled.
"This isn't a big, okay it's just hair color, and I'm your wife, please" Buffy begged. Spike rolled his eyes and gave up.
"All right, fine, but you can't show anyone what I'm about to show you all right" he said and Buffy nodded. He got up and went a trunk that was in the closet and got a key from a ceramic bird that was on the top shelf of a bookshelf and opened it. Once the trunk was open Spike dug on the bottom until he found a photo album. He picked it up and brought it over and sat back on the couch. The album was old and falling apart. It was dark brown and had the word 'Treasures' on it.
"What's this?" Buffy asked.
"It's my photo album, this has all pictures of me" Spike aid and opened it.
"Aw, is that you? You were so cute" Buffy smiled and pointed to the baby picture of Spike.
"Yep that's me" Spike said.
"But in this one you don't have any hair" Buffy said.
"Be patient luv" Spike said and turned the page. The next picture Buffy saw was of him at the age of about eleven.
"Your hair is brown, what's wrong with that?" Buffy asked.
"Well it's brown and curly, I look like a wanker" he said and Buffy rolled her eyes and put her arms around Spike's neck.
"You do not look like a wanker, whatever that is, you look cute" she said and kissed him on the cheek.
"Thank you" he said. She let go of his neck and took the album from him. "Be careful it's old."
"I know relax" she said and turned the page. There was a picture of him and. . .guess who. "Drusilla."
"Oh, I forgot that was in there" he said.
"Why do you still have pictures of her?" Buffy asked.
"Oh I. . .I don't know" Spike said taking the album and putting on the bookshelf.
"Do you still love her?" Buffy asked.
"No, and I never did, I told you I never loved before you" Spike said and sat back on the couch.
"Well then you can get rid of it right?" Buffy asked.
"No, look I'm sure you have pictures of your ex-boyfriends" Spike said.
"I. . .well I. . ." Buffy said at loss of words.
"Exactly, so. . .how many boyfriends have you had?" Spike asked.
"Don't' change the subject" Buffy said.
"No, uh-uh I want to know" Spike said.
"Fine. . .okay there was Angel-"
"Angel, what kind of girly name is that?" Spike laughed.
'What kind of biblical whore name Harmony, and Drusilla, were her parents high when they named her?" Buffy said.
"All right, come on, next" Spike said.
"Okay, then there was Scott, and then. . .Parker, and then. . .oh the last was Riley" Buffy said.
"The guy on the beach, that was your ex?" Spike asked.
"Jealous?" Buffy teased.
"Oh please, I'm much hotter than he is" Spike said and Buffy smiled.
"Of course you are honey" she said and put her hands around him again and kissed him, this time on the lips. "What about you?"
"What about me?" Spike asked.
"Well who are your exes?" she asked.
"Okay, there was Cicely, Drusilla, and Harmony" he said.
"That's all?"
"Yeah" Spike said.
"Oh. . .okay, what happened between you?" Buffy asked.
"Well with me and Cicely. . .I don't know she was too proper, with Dru, she was just-"
"Too slutty?" Buffy asked with a smile.
"No, too. . .possessive, and Harm was unfaithful" he said.
"Oh, well you don' have to worry about any of that stuff with me" Buffy said.
"Good, all right I have to rinse this out of my hair, can you help me?" he asked.
"Sure" she said and they went back upstairs.
* Prom Night *
"All right" Buffy said and came out of what was her room before she moved out. She was at her mom's house getting ready. Tonight was the prom.
"You look wonderful honey" Joyce said. Buffy was wearing her dress and shoes, except this time her hair was done. It was put up in a French twist with small pieces curled around her face. She had on shimmery makeup also.
"Really?" Buffy asked.
"Yes, you look awesome" Dawn said.
"Thanks" Buffy said and looked in the full-length mirror that was in the room. "Okay, the limo should be here soon."
"Are you excited, you know only four day until the last day of school, and only seven until you graduate" Dawn said.
"Yes, very" Buffy said. Suddenly the doorbell rang. "Oh."
"I'll get it, you be ready to make an appearance" Joyce said and bowed like a princess would and then went downstairs. She opened the door and Spike was standing there in a tux. "Spike you look great."
"Thanks Joyce" Spike said.
"Buffy, honey Spike's here" Joyce said and Buffy came down the stairs. Spike jaw dropped at the sight of his wife. The dress was beautiful even more with the baby showing. The little bump made her even more gorgeous.
"Buffy, baby you look. . .uh. . .wow" Spike said and Buffy smiled.
"You too" she said and came the rest of the way down the stairs and kissed her mother on the cheek. "Bye mom, I love you."
"Love you too sweetie, have fun" Joyce said.
"I will" Buffy said and her and Spike left. They got into the limo and inside was a pink rose, Buffy's favorite and a corsage. "Aw, thanks honey."
"You're welcome pet" Spike said and they got into the limo. Once at the school they hurried in. The dance had already started and people were dancing. Buffy and Spike found their friends and went over to them.
"Hey" Buffy said.
"Hi, Buffy you look amazing" Willow said.
"You too Will" Buffy said. Willow was wearing a pink gown that was full length and strapless and she had a pink lacy shawl over her shoulders to match. Her hair was put up in a high ponytail and curled.
"Thank you" Willow said. Cordelia showed up a while later wearing a glittery black gown that was also full length and had spaghetti straps. Her hair was curled and put up partially.
"Hey guys" Cordy said happily. "This is amazing isn't it?"
"Yeah, it's great" Buffy said. "You look pretty."
"Thanks you too" Cordy said.
"No, I look fat" Buffy said and Spike rolled his eyes.
"Come on complainarella let's dance" he said and took her hand as a slow song came on. Buffy and Spike, Oz and Willow and Xander and Cordelia dance together.
"Are you having a good time pet?" Spike asked.
"Yeah, it's perfect, not exactly how I imagined, you know before I moved here I saw myself the prom queen, and not to be shallow, but if I was still in L.A. I would be, I never imagined that I would fall in love, get pregnant and then get married in high school, but. . .I look back and I wouldn't want to change anything" Buffy said.
"Well I didn't imagine this either, I didn't even think I would go to prom, not until I met you" Spike said.
"You know I look at, everything, things that happened, both here and Los Angeles, I. . .honestly don't know what I'd do without you, I don't know how I got so. . ." Buffy said.
"Lucky, I know I feel the same way" Spike told her and she smiled.
"Okay, everyone It's time to announce the prom king and queen" a guy said. "First we'll start off with the three princes and princesses of this year, first of all the princes, Max Myers" he said and everyone clapped. "David Roger" more clapping. "And Allen Right" more clapping. "Okay, the princess are. . .Holly Taylor" clapping. "Anna Dove and Charlotte Kane" more clapping. "Now, the moment we've been waiting for, for lack of a better statement, the prom king is. . .Spike Bryson" he said and Buffy turned to him.
"Oh my god honey!" she said and kissed him and he went up to the stage.
"Here ya go" a girl said and put the crown on his head.
"And the prom queen is. . .Glorianna LaChey" the guy said. Buffy's eyes widened when he said Glory's name. She ran up to the stage and the girl put the crown on her head and gave her some flowers.
"Um. . thank you for voting for me, why wouldn't you I mean look at me, anyway I think that Spike and I make the perfect couple, as king and queen, and other things, thanks" Glory said and Buffy felt like punching her.
"Okay, as tradition the king and queen will have the dance, music please" the guy said and they stated playing a slow song and Glory took Spike's hand and led him to the middle of the dance floor and the spotlight shown on them while they danced. Buffy could feel her teeth and fists start to clench as Glory held Spike close. Glory whispered something in his ear and he smiled. Buffy didn't know what it was but she felt like smacking her. After the dance was over Buffy went over to Willow and Oz and the rest of the gang. Spike was still talking to Glory.
"Can you believe that slut" Buffy said angrily.
"Uh, you mean Glory?" Oz asked.
"Yeah, she's putting the moves on my husband" Buffy said.
"Well it is Glory, you can't really be surprised" Cordelia said.
"And look at her outfit, I mean come on" Buffy said. She looked at Glory who was wearing a red silk spaghetti strapped dress that was about 1 inch above her knee. Her curly brown hair was put up into a messy bun. "Hello this is a formal dance not a strip bar."
"Oh come on Buffy you can trust Spike" Willow said.
"Yeah, I know, but I can't trust her" Buffy said. "That's it I'm ending this now." She went over to where Spike and Glory were talking and took Spike's hand. "Come on honey." She pulled Spike away.
"What are you doing?" he asked.
"What are 'you' doing?" she asked.
"I'm being sociable, is there a problem with that?" he asked.
"Yes, when it's with her, yes" Buffy said.
"Okay, I'm not allowed to talk to Dru, and not Harmony, and now not Glory?" Spike asked, anger growing in his voice.
"Oh, it's funny how you want to make nice with all your exes Spike, why don't you just screw them all, get them all knocked up, then you'll really have a party won't you!" Buffy said angrily.
"You know what, I'm really getting tired of your attitude!" Spike spat back.
"Oh I'm sorry honey I forgot, it's all about you isn't it!" Buffy yelled and stormed out of the hall. It seemed that everyone was looking at Spike.
"Oh bloody hell" he whispered to himself and followed Buffy. Willow, Xander Oz and Cordelia followed also
"Buffy!" he said and grabbed her by the arm. "Do you really want to leave your own prom?"
"Let go of me" she said and yanked her arm away. "I'm not going to sit here and watch you flirt with her."
"I'm not flirting" he said.
"Uh, guys, let's just go inside and you know have some more fun" Xander said.
"Stay out of this Xander" Buffy said.
"Okay" he said.
"Look Buffy I-" Spike began.
"No, just go and. . ." Buffy said and stopped and got a funny look on her face.
"What's wrong?" Spike asked.
"I. . ." she said and then fell to the ground.
"Buffy!" Spike said and caught her before she hit the concrete.
"Oh my god!" Willow said.
"Buffy, sweetheart, come on get up, Buffy?" Spike said trying to wake her, but she wouldn't come to.
"What's wrong with her?" Cordelia said.
"I don't know, we have to get her to the hospital, come on" Spike said.
