Days past since Buffy had went to the doctor. She'd kept it a secret, from everyone, her parents, and friends, even Will. It was a hard thing to do, harder then she thought it would be. She just wanted to tell Will, she knew he'd be by her every step of the way. But something, something she wasn't quite sure of prevented her from it.
Now, as she sat behind the desk of Becky's Beauty Salon, watching the mother and daughter cut hair, she felt uncomfortable. It was a funny, and odd feeling, because before she knew she was pregnant, this place had been like a second home. She loved it here; Will's whole family was so nice to her.
Becky and her customer walked over to where Buffy sat. She looked up at the two and tried so hard to contain her laughter. Standing before her, was a woman, about her mother's age, with newly died blue hair that spiked out in every direction possible. Why someone that old would want their hair like that, Buffy did not know.
"Nice job." Buffy said, complimenting Becky.
"Shut up. That'll be eighty-five dollars Mrs. Cronshaw." Becky said.
Mrs. Cronshaw paid and left the two girls by themselves. Becky pulled up a chair and sat next to Buffy. She picked up a pen and began doodling on the wooden desk. Buffy smiled at what she put. In a heart, she wrote William and Elizabeth.
"Thanks." Buffy said.
"You know you two make the cutest couple."
"So you've told me." Buffy said.
"Mum!" Will yelled, barging in the door. "Mum, where the bleeding hell are you?"
He stopped when he saw Buffy and his sister staring at him, confused looks on both their faces. He ignored them and ran over to his mother. She stood impatiently next to her customer, one hand on her hip.
"Mum, I need to ask you something."
"And what's that William?"
He leaned over to her ear and whispered it. A smile appeared on her face as he told her and she nodded her head as if agreeing.
"Of course."
"Thanks." Will said.
He walked over to where Buffy sat and leaned over the counter to plant a soft kiss on her lips. Pulling back, she looked to Becky who was already off the stool and on her way to the other side of the room. Will sat in the chair his sister deserted and took Buffy's hand in his.
"I got you something pet."
"Will, you didn't have to . . . What for?" Buffy asked.
"You're going home soon, we only have a week or two left together. I want you to remember me. So, I bought you this." He said, pulling out a small, black box. "Its nothing too committing, just something I thought that you might like to have. It's a promise ring. To promise that next year, you come back and we can be together again. To promise that we'll always love each other, no matter how far apart, because what we have is real."
"Oh my . . ." Buffy said, tears streaming down her face as Will slid the ring onto her finger. "I love you."
"I love you too."
"Like I said, cutest couple!" Becky yelled. "Sorry to interrupt, but Buffy, if you want to make some money, you're going to have to cut some hair!"
"Coming!"
"Yeah, I better get back. One more thing. Tonight, seven o clock, I'll pick you up at you're cottage." Will said.
"Where are we going?" Buffy asked
"That is a surprise." Will said, before leaning over and kissing her. "Bye till then pet."
"Bye." Buffy said as she watched him run out the door.
