Spike lay asleep in bed his mouth slightly agape as Faye snuggled next to him. Her head lay next to his a smile on her face. Faye held Spike's hand gingerly still awake from the paining in her back. Faye sighed then suddenly felt a wet sensation and noted that her water had just broke… "Spike!" Faye shouted sitting up quickly hitting him in the chest with her hands balled into fists.
Spike's eyes widened and he jumped out of bed with a scare. "What, what is it?! I'll kill him, who's breaking in?!" Spike's dark green hair was matted from sleep his bare chest showing off his muscles and the small scare left from the sword Vicious had imbedded into his side eight months before.
"My water broke!" Faye yelled back kissing him quickly on the cheek to get him to concentrate.
"Your… Your water broke?!" Spike's eyes widened more and he became more in a panic. "We don't even have the room ready, you aren't due for another three weeks!" Spike ran out of their bedroom and grabbed a t-shirt from the washroom.
"Oww… Yes, I know that, but I just can't yell at them and tell them to stay where they are for another three weeks!" Faye hissed feeling her first contraction.
"I've got to call Jet, and Shin, we don't have enough fuel in the Zip Craft…" Spike dodged into their small kitchen and grabbed the phone.
About three months ago Jet helped pitch in and get Spike and Faye a small apartment not too far from the loading docks, where Jet staid with Ein on the Bebop. Ed had left with her father who suddenly appeared out of no where and would call Jet every now and then to say hello.
Shin did take over the Red Dragon, having all of its past covered, and closing within a matter of months. Taking a new job he now was planning on opening a small restaurant like his parents had when he was little.
"Spike, just have Shin take us… Stop worrying these things take time to happen." Faye breathed like the doctor had told her as Spike walked into the kitchen and got herself a glass of water guzzling it down.
"Are you sure?" Spike looked at her concerned when he saw the pained look on her face as she felt another contraction.
"Yes, damn it, now stop worrying…" Faye whined a bit taking a seat. She never whined in her life… Or at least the life she could remember. If she did she was acting, when trying to catch a bounty, or when she was making fun of Spike just to get a rouse out of him.

"Sweetheart come here!" A tall, thin woman with dark violet hair called to her daughter who skipped along the shore water in her bare feet the bottom of her pale yellow dress covered with the salty water of the ocean from the little waves that washed up against her feet.
"Coming mommy!" The little girl laughed her dark green eyes vibrant with imagination and happiness as she skipped over to her mother.
"Here's your lunch honey, eat up and get your swim suit on. I just got a call from work and I don't have to go in today, so we can spend the whole day together!" The woman laughed when her daughter lunged at her almost making her drop the plate with a jelly sandwich on it; cut into little squares with three strawberries on it.
"Yeah, thank you mommy!" The girl giggled sitting on her mother's lap as she took a bite of her sandwich. The woman stroked the young girls shoulder length locks of dark purple hair much like her own.
"Oh my Faye-Faye what am I going to do with you?"
"What do you mean mommy?" The girl turned her head to face her mother.
"When guys start tell you they like you… You're going to be so beautiful when you grow up… I don't know what to do."
"Ewwie mommy! Boys have cooties, I'll never go out with them, that's nasty mommy!" Faye protested with a disgusted look on her face.
"Oh, Faye, so your father has cooties?" The mother smiled lightly.
"No, cause daddies old."
"I am, am I?" A tall man with jet black hair, and dark green eyes came out onto the large brick patio.
"Uhh! Daddy!" Faye jumped off her mother's lap and leaped into her father's open arms hugging him tightly as he swung her around in circles. "You're home early!" She closed her eyes tightly content with the way things were turning out.
"Yes, and this, my dear girl is for you…" Faye's father bent down to face Faye as she let go of him. Before her he placed a large stuffed bear with soft fuzzy fur like a Chinchilla's.
"Oh! Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Faye squealed happily taking the bear into her arms and hugging it tightly. It was pink in color with pale blue-gray eyes. "I'll name her Sakura since the cherry blossoms are in bloom!" She laughed again running over to her mother and showing her the bear.
"That's great sweetie!" The mother smiled towards her daughter.
"I'm going to get changed; now!" She yelled running inside the large house.
"Okay honey!" Faye's mother shouted back.
"Why do you put on a fake mask whenever I'm around her?" The father hissed in a low voice anger rising in his blood.
"What do you mean?" The woman seemed confused and slightly scared from her husband's tone of voice.
"Every damn time I try to make Faye happy you have to screw things up, I sick and tired of it!" The man slapped his wife in the face making her scream out in pain.
"I… I'm sorry, I had just told her we could go swimming; she wanted help with it before her trip with school…" She quivered in fear looking down at the ground holding her hand to her face…
"See that it doesn't happen again Rika… Or you know what I can do to you." He smiled faking another hit stopping just before her face. "Ha, ha!" The man laughed.
"Yes honey…" She nodded her head smiling slightly to make him happy.
"Good, we have an understanding with each other again. Now get ready and we'll help Faye with her swimming together…"
"Mommy, daddy I'm ready to go swimming!" Faye shouted running out in a little pink one peace suit with a white fringe around the bottom and upper straps. They fell silent for a moment until Rika took over.
"Okay! Come with me first while I get changed and daddy will help out too!" Rika smiled picking up Faye with a slight heave and hurried inside. 'What happened to you Roger? You used to care for us so much… But now—' Her thoughts were cut off by Faye.
"It's okay mommy. Don't be scared, I'm sure daddy just had a bad day." Faye sighed closing her eyes.
Rika's dark blue eyes widened and she stared into Faye's face. "You… You heard that sweetie?"
"Yeah, but I won't tell anyone, promise!" Faye smiled kissing her on the cheek where Roger had struck her.
"Uh… Okay honey, whatever you do don't get your father upset… For now just do as he asks." Rika bit down on her lower lip fighting back the tears in her eyes.
"Yes mommy!" Faye smiled with a small laugh holding her close. 'For mommy's sake I will do all an eight year old can!' Faye smiled snuggling close.

Shin took a sip from his second beer bottle burping slightly as he glanced at a photo he found in a box not to long ago. Hidden in the back of his closet the picture was at the bottom of the small shoe box. The picture was of him when he turned thirteen, for a party he was able to play a baseball game with Spike, Vicious, his brother, and a few other guys who staid at the Syndicate with them.
The phone rang and with a smile he plopped the picture back in the box and practically skipped over to the phone. "Helloo?" Shin slurred with a smirk on his flushed face.
"Shin, it's… It's Spike." Spike had noticed the slur in speech right away.
"Oh! Hey buddy… Whaz up friend?" Shin hiccupped with a little giggle.
Spike had to improvise. "Oh… Oh nothing, everything is great just thought I'd say hi. Um, yeah I'll come pick you up in about an hour at the most okay man?" Spike thought of everything to keep him indoors.
"Oh? Whaz for?" Shin smirked finding his left foot amusing for some reason.
"Well, don't you want to be at the hospital if Faye's having the twins?" Spike smiled again hearing a small cry from his face filling with concern and he turned towards her.
Faye shook her head shushing him away with a hand and he stepped towards her getting himself tangled in the phone cord.
"Really?! Ohh congrats! I'll juz drive over right aways… Then we can heads right to the hospitell—"
"No! Anything but that Shin, I'm picking you out it's right on the way there, you didn't know that?!" Spike's eyes widened cutting off Shin quickly.
"No way, reallzy?!" Shin started to laugh. "I never knew! Wells then I bez waited for ya!" Shin laughed again. "Tell Faye dat I say helloo." He burped again.
"I'll do that Shin; we'll be over in a few, just stay where you are alright?" Spike waited for a reply.
"Oh, no problem! Adios amigos!" Shin laughed hanging up the phone. "Now where did my beer go?" Shin became frustrated but then once again found his foot more amazing and watched it as he wiggled his toes.
Spike hung up his phone shaking his head. 'If Shin's actully drunk… How's Jet going to be?!' Spike shook his head gripping a hold of his mop of green hair and yelled out openly running over to Faye the second she started to cry. "It's okay honey, just breath! We can do this together baby!" Spike sat down next to Faye taking her hand and breathing with her holding onto her hand tight.
"I'm the one in labor here, so stop acting like you're the one who's in pain!" Faye's eyes streamed over with tears and Spike was crushed deciding that calling Jet was a better idea then sitting with Faye at the moment.
-----------------------
So how was that for a weird start? Faye's going to have a tough past I'm thinking… Spike and her have something to relate to. She might remember her past, at least by the end anyway. Hope you like this so far! Poor Spike, he's just trying to help you Faye! ::Faye glares at me:: ¬_¬' I can take a hint… Now I know how you're feeling Spike. ::sighs:: What to happen, what to do? That is the question… Haa Anyway I posted up a little poem… My first one really. ::crosses fingers:: I'm hoping it's not as bad as I perceive it to be, tell me what you think! It's called: The Pain of Goodbye.
Sad yes… What Faye's begging Spike to do in her mind as he leaves, but will he ever? I don't know it was a poem, you your imagination dream ^_^. Hee! ENOY FOLKS AND REVIEW THIS FANFIC!!!
Toodles always,
