The Unexpected

Chapter 2 – Cries and Tears

"Hello? Anyone here? Aaaaaaah!"

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!" The two girl shrieked when they bumped into each other.

"Willow!"

"Dawn!" Willow, who was an advanced witch, was holding 4 small bottles. Dawn stared at the bottles. There was green, red, blue and yellow. Dawn was holding her school bag and school books. Then they stared at each other at the same moment.

"Dawnie, you scared me.... Please don't do that again...."

"You weren't the only one who got the shock of her life...." Then they both laughed, "so... what are doing? Making potions or something? Can I help?" Willow stared at Dawn's books.

"Dawn, don't you have homework?" Dawn shook her head.

"Not this time... Mrs Relloy must be sick!" Both girls laughed again. Willow and Dawn went to the living room and sat on the floor.

"So, how was school?" Dawn giggled and then she blushed.

"Well..... Dave asked me out...." Willow's eyes widened.

"You mean that populair guy, who you have an eye for? The guy with brown hair and... I believe blue eyes, has asked you out?! When?!" Dawn's face was blushing in the room.

"Well, we were in the cafeteria and he approached me with a few guys. I think they were also football players, just like him. But anyway... three friends of mine were sitting beside me and then he tapped on my shoulder. I turned around and.... he told me, that he had liked me for a long time. Since the beginning of the schoolyear! Then, he asked me out! In front of everyone! Can you believe it?!" The two girls laughed. Willow was happy for Dawn. She had never seen Dawn that happy before, since the day her mother, Joyce Summers, died.

"Oh my God, I'm so happy for you, Dawnie!" The girls embraced each other and let go of each other, when they heard the door open.

"Buffy!"

~*~

"So, Buffy.... what did the doctor say?" Willow stared questioning at Dawn.

"Doctor?! Buffy, is there something wrong with you?!" Again Willow stared at Dawn, hoping that she would answer her.

"Buffy's been having very bad headaches and get tired of everything all the time. Not to mention, she vomits almost every night. I mean, didn't you notice or heard her vomit?" Willow gasped and shook her head.

"But Buffy, are you alright now?" Buffy's mind was sort of empty. She couldn't believe what the doctor had said to her. Her body was in the house, but her mind wandered off somewhere else. When Dawn and Willow stood up and asked Buffy if she were alright, she finally replied.

"Oh yeah... I'm fine. The doctor said...."

'I.... I can't tell them... Not yet....'

".....he said, that it's the hormones. My hormones are sort of weird, he said. But it's just for a short period. It'll get over. Don't you guys worry about me. I'm fine, honest!" Both Willow and Dawn didn't know whether to believe Buffy or not. But eventually, Willow and Dawn both smiled.

"Well, I'm glad you're alright, Buffy." Willow embraced her friend and Buffy forced herself a smile.

"I'm going out for a walk.... I'll be right back...." Buffy put down her bag and closed the door behind her.

As Buffy walked through the park, she had the urge to beat up someone. She was angry and furious, yet she was sad. She remembered what the doctor said and that made her want to cry. She wanted to die, but then.... she changed her mind.

~*~ Flashback ~*~

"Doctor? What are the results?" The doctor slowly walked to his desk and asked Buffy to sit.

"Ms Summers, I have bad news...." Buffy tried to prepare herself for the worse. She had no idea what the doctor was going to say. Buffy clenched her teeth together and squeezed her hands. She saw the doctor taking a deep breath.

"Ms Summers, I have the results of you intense headaches and what me and my colleages have discovered, is that you have cancer. It's brain tumor...."

"WHAT?!" Buffy's eyes widened and she almost fell off her chair as she stood up and banged both her hands at the doctor's table. The doctor jumped back and stared at Buffy.

"I'm sorry.... it's just.... I have cancer?" The doctor nodded and Buffy fell back in her chair again. She couldn't and wouldn't believe it. All those years. Almost like 7 years she had been a perfectly healty slayer. Then, it appears to be that suddenly she has cancer....

"We have examined your body and took a few scans and you may not be pleased to hear it, but I think it's nessesary for you to know it. Ms Summers, you have only two years left...."

'What is this?! This can't be true! Maybe this doctor isn't working here long.... Maybe....'  

But she knew, that she was fooling herself. Even if he weren't working her for a long time, still they aren't doctors for nothing. Of course they must be good. And so.... of course they're right. Buffy's body was trembling. She was ready to collapse. There it was..... The mighty slayer, feared by all vampires and demons and all the other night creatures, is about to hand over her life to fate. She always thought, that she would be killed by some powerful demon or any of that sort of thing. But no.... she had to give up her life to fate.

'How am I supposed to tell everyone? Should I... tell Spike? No... I shouldn't. He's going to leave Sunnydale and why should I tell him? I don't care what he does... He...'  

But Buffy's mind was interrupted by the doctor.

"Also ms Summers, I don't know whetherto congratulate you or not...." Buffy frowned her eyes.

"What?! Congratulate me for having cancer?! I didn't know you hated me that much!" The doctor quickly shook his head.

"No no! That is not what I meant! Absolutely not! What I was trying to say, was that you are carrying a child in you." Buffy's eyes widened even more than she had ever widened them before. She was hoping that she understood that wrong.

"WHAT?! Say that again!"

"Ms Summers, you're pregnant.... You have beenn two and a half months pregnant...." Buffy's body was trembling even more. Her hands were shaking.

'This can't be true! Cancer AND pregnant?! No... how could this have happened... Who.....'   She wanted to ask herself who the father of her unborn child could be. Suddenly, it was as if a rock just slapped her head.

'Spike...'

~*~ End Flashback ~*~

"Should I.... tell Spike of this? How will he react? I don't know what to do! Oh God, please help me!'  Buffy had the urge to hide herself somewhere and cry. It was all she wanted. To cry and let all of her tears flow. She was afraid of what would happen next. She had her doubts to tell Spike.

'No... I must tell him. He is the.... father of the child. He has the right to know....'  Buffy started to run, because she just remembered, that Spike was going to leave in the evening already. She had to find him, before he's gone. Buffy stared to seek in the basement of Dawn's school. That was Spike's.... home.

"Spike?! Spike!" Buffy ran around like crazy. She needed to find him. Suddenly, she realized how much she needed him, how much she actually loved him.

'Spike... where are you?! I need you... I love you... Please, don't leave me! Whenever I'm in some kind of trouble, you're always the first one to come and help me... Whenever I'm happy, you're by my side to laugh with me.... Whenever I'm sad, you comfort me by embracing me tight.... God, how much I want you to embrace me now. How much I need you right next to me now....'  

Buffy suddenly stopped as she reached the place where Spike would sleep every night. She knelt down next to his bed and noticed an envelope. She opened it and knew that it was Spike's writings.

~*~

To Buffy Summer,

Buffy... I am still very sorry for what I had did to you...

Bloddy hell, I still regret for what I have done.

You must believe, that I would never harm you.

You are the first woman I have ever loved with all my heart.

The first woman who ever really cared about me....

The first woman... who ever believed and trusted me...

But it was my own foolish mistake that I have violated that trust.

I am nothing but a fool who does not deserve to be loved by you...

I shall get my punishment some day for what I did to you.

But I thought, may I die or may I leave Sunnydale or you...

I still want you to know my last words....

Buffy Summers.... I love you....

~*~

As Buffy read the letter, she bursted out in tears and wanted to scream.

"Spike, you moron! How could you leave me! Don't you know I love you, I need you and I want you?! You moron! Moron, moron, moron!!!" Buffy yelled. Then she collapsed down the floor, still holding Spike's letter and cried. Her tears were streaming like waterfalls and they were shining as bright as the stars above like yesterday night. As Buffy's back was leaning the wall, she burried her face in her hands. Then she looked at the letter again. It was all under her tears.

"God, Spike! I HATE YOU!!!! Why did you leave me?! I... I need you... Come back, Spike!"
