Chapter Fifty: Labour
Everyone was silent for a second not registering what she had just said until Spike whipped his head round to her.
"What?" He gasped.
"What?" Angel gasped.
"What" Faith gasped.
"Holy crap." Andrew muttered pointing the camera at her.
"Yeah, I'm gonna have the babies, my water broke."
Spike looked down at Buffy in shock, everyone all of a sudden forgot there troubles for a second and ran over to Buffy.
"Baby are you sure?" Spike asked in a panic.
"Just about." She said surely.
"Well, I kinda remember the last time you were in labour, I still can't flex my hand all to well, but you don't seem in pain." Faith asked.
"Well it just feels kind of a uncomfortable pain, maybe because I had Alex, it wont be to painful this time, oh yay." Buffy said smiling.
7 Hours later
"GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME YOU SON OF A BITCH!" Buffy screamed at the nurse.
"Mrs. Crawford please, this will ease the pain, let me give it to you." The nurse said trying to give her the injection.
"NO, PISS OFF!" She screamed.
At that moment Spike walked in with the ice Buffy asked for.
"What's going on"? Spike asked.
Buffy turned her head slowly to him with rage in her eyes.
"You." She said with venom in her voice and looking at him murderously.
Spike looked at her shocked.
Buffy slammed herself back down to the bed with a thump.
"You bastard, I should have killed you when you were a vampire, before I could have ever fallen in love with you and let you knock me up." She said.
The nurse looked at her with a funny expression then looked over at him.
"Err, gang... yeah we were in a gang, vampire was a name for me, and when she says kill she means dump... yeah." Spike said quickly, nodding to make it sound convincing.
"O...kay, I'm going to find a doctor." The nurse said leaving the room.
Spike watched her go and ran over to Buffy.
"Buffy, honey you can't go saying stuff like that in front of people."
"But its true, if you would have just left me alone, and not been so sexy and sweet, I would have fallen for you and I would be in this much paINNNN! Shed screamed as another contraction ripped through her.
"I'm sorry sweet heart, I wish I could take it away." He said sitting next to her and rubbing her back.
The doctor came in and smiled at the scene and the love in Spikes eyes.
"How you doing Buffy?" The doctor asked.
"She not doing to well." Spike said jumping in and kissing her on the neck.
Buffy put her hand on his face and pushed him away from her, Spike dropped to the floor with a thud.
"THAT'S THE KIND OF THING THAT GOT US HERE IN THE FIRST PLACE"
She yelled at Spike before turning to the doctor.
"YOUR BITCH NURSE IS TRYING TO POISON ME." She screamed.
Spike got up and dusted him self of looked at the doctor.
"Buffy, do you trust me?" The doctor asked as she picked up the syringe.
"Yes." She said as she had been seeing this doctor all the way through her pregnancy plus the fact she was a woman helped.
"Well what I'm going to give you will ease the pain, ok?"
Buffy hesitated then looked up at Spike and back at the doctor.
"Ok." She said simply.
Spike took a deep breath and began to walk out.
"Where are you going?" She asked him.
"Just to update everyone outside pet, I'll be right back." He said walking out.
As the door closed behind him, he paused to collect himself, and then headed for the waiting area.
Faith saw him first and jumped to her feet. "Is it over?"
Spike shook his head. "I wish." He sat down on the couch next to Willow. "The doc is giving her something so it doesn't hurt so much, I'll tell you what, what she was like last time, nothing compared to the monster in there I'll tell you that." He said pointing over at the door.
"We heard the screaming, is she being horrible?" Willow said.
"Yeah, the nurses are all scared of her." He said rubbing his arm.
"Spike what's wrong with your arm?" Faith asked.
Spike took his jacket off as he decided not to wear his duster, so he wouldn't piss off Wood too much, he didn't have time to apologize for his past to him and he wasn't about to either. He pulled up his t –shirt showing everyone the rather large bruise.
"Ouch, what happened?" Dawn asked.
"Fell off the bed... actually Buffy pushed me off the bed." Spike said taking his whole jacket off.
He spotted Angel snickering in the corner at Buffy pushing Spike off the bed. Spike glared at him.
"But it's all worth it in the end, when Buffy comes home with me, to our family, to our bed." He said looking at Angel.
Angel stopped smiling instantly and looked away.
Spike smirked and stood up.
"I'm going back in." He said.
"Tell her we're all proud of her."
"I will." Spike looked back at them from the doorway. "Good-bye." he said, sounding like a condemned man.
Outside of Buffy's room, he waited, listening for her harsh voice. After almost a minute of silence, he pushed the door open. "Buffy?"
Buffy looked over at Spike and instead of the venomous look she gave him last time she gave him the sweetest look.
"Spike, baby, I missed you, come ere." She said holding a hand out to him.
Spike smiled and walked over to her.
"Accepted the drugs, huh?" He asked sitting down next to her again.
"Yep, they are good drugs, verrrrry good drugs." She giggled as she snuggled into his side.
Spike hesitantly put his arm around her, as the last time he did that he ended up on the floor, this time she leaned up and kissed him softly.
"Mmm, I like drugged up Buffy." He said.
"I like drugged up Buffy too, hey maybe if you ask the doctor nicely, she will sell you some so we can take it home." She said hopefully.
"I don't think that's legal luv." He said hugging her closer.
"Legal smegal, this stuff is good." She said looking up at him.
Even though Buffy was in labour in room 264, out side that door was another story.
Andrew still held his camera sitting in the corner talking in to the lens.
["My god viewers, the tension in this waiting area is unbelievable, did you see the look Angels gave Spike when he came in? Something's up there, but at the moment viewers, lets concentrate on what's going on in here."] Andrew said before turning the camera round and zooming in on Angel looking out the door towards Buffy's delivery room with a longing look on his face. Faith who was sitting down with her foot propped up on the table looking between the floor and Angel, and Wood who was leaning up against the window glancing between Faith and Angel, he obviously could see the way Faith was looking at Angel.
Faith looked up at Angel and saw him duck his head and take a deep breath.
Faith instantly got up and walked over to him.
"Hey, you ok?" She asked her voice full of concern.
"Yeah, just worried about her, is it supposed to take this long?" He asked.
"I don't know, maybe, Alex was born quicker but some labours are longer, she'll be ok." She said rubbing his back.
Wood was across the room glaring at the scene. Willow, Dawn and Xander sat and talked while Alex sat on Willows lap, refusing to go to sleep unless he saw his mommy and his brothers or sisters.
"Maybe I should go in there to see if she wants anymore support." He said to her.
Faith shook her head and chuckled slightly before moving into his arms lending him the warmth of her body.
"Believe me, Buffy in labour isn't fun" She said raising her hand in front of his face, they both started chuckling and before they knew it Faith was ripped from Angel's arms.
["Oh oh, viewers, the action begins"] Andrew said pointing the camera at the scene.
"SO WHAT YOU SPEND ALL THAT TIME WITH ME AND NOW YOU'RE GETTING ALL CUDDLY WITH HIM?" Robin yelled.
"What the hell are you talking about?" Faith said.
"Hey Alex lets go get some ice cream." Willow said picking up Alex and walking out the room, with Dawn behind her. Xander was about to leave when he walked over to Andrew, Andrew saw him coming and arranged the camera in a position that could see the whole room.
Once everyone was out Faith turned to Robin with fire in her eyes
"Now tell me what THE FUCK YOUR GOING ON ABOUT BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE A CLUE?" Faith yelled.
"When we met up in New. York, after you left here, we got close, then you all of a sudden say your coming home and you'll call me, but you don't, then your hugging him."
"When you left me you met up with him?" Angel asked.
"No, it was unexpected, we didn't plan it or anything." Faith said looking at him and ignoring Woods huffs behind her.
"Did you sleep with him?" Angel asked.
"No, she wanted to come back and fuck her vampire." Wood spat out, before Faith got a chance to react Angel used his vampire speed to grab him y the collars.
"Hey, you guys, sorry to interrupt but Buffy is delivering." Willow said.
As soon as she mentioned Buffy, Angel ran out followed by Faith then Wood.
Spike sat next to a panting Buffy as she neared delivery.
"This...sucks." Buffy panted.
"I know baby." Spike said.
"Ok Buffy are you ready to push." The midwife said.
"Yes, very ready." Buffy panted.
"Ok, push." The midwife said.
"AHHH SPIKE DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MUCH I HATE YOU AND YOUR PENIS RIGHT NOW?" Buffy screamed pretty loud.
"I know honey, me and my penis is on your death list, now come on your doing so well." Spike said holding her shoulders.
Buffy pushed with all her might until she heard a piercing cry, Buffy slumped back into Spikes arms as he laughed with delight.
"It's a girl." The midwife pronounced
"A girl, I've got a baby girl." Buffy said.
"We've got a little girl Buffy." Spike said excitedly.
The midwife handed the baby to the nurse who took her to the other side of the room.
"Where is she going?" Buffy asked.
"She out of the way for a second so number two can come out."
"Oh god, number two, I can't do it, I can't do it again, I'm too tired." She said trying to lie back down.
Spike lifted her back up into a sitting position.
"No, baby, come on you have to do it."
"Can't you do it for me?" She said stroking his cheek.
The midwife chuckled slightly.
"I would if I could sweet heart, but I can't." He said pushing some hair out of her face.
Buffy huffed and started to push when the midwife old her too.
"Ok the head is out." The midwife said, "Come on Buffy keep going."
"NO I can't do it any more I give up." Buffy said lying down exhausted.
"Come on Buffy you can't give up now." Spike said picking her back up again.
"Watch me." She said as Spike rubbed her back.
"Come on Buffy this one will be a bit easier."
Buffy gave one last hard push when a second scream entered the room.
"Oh god, please don't tell me I'm having triplets" Buffy said lying down exhausted.
"Nope, just the two, and this little guy, looks as healthy as his sister " The midwife said.
The nurse brought the tiny little girl over and handed her to Spike as the midwife handed Buffy her newborn son.
Buffy looked at her new children with tears of joy in her eyes.
She leaned up and kissed Spike then kissed her daughter then her son in her arms.
"They are amazing" Spike breathed.
"They really are, and Spike, these are the last, I'm not going through that again." She said playing with the hair behind his neck.
"Anything you want darlin', I'm so proud of you" He said leaning down and kissing her soundly on the mouth.
"I love you so much Spike, I'm so glad you're here, with all that happened couple of mouths ago, I don't know what I would have done if you weren't here for this." She said gazing at Spike.
"Well, you might have broken Faiths hand again." He joked.
She chuckled slightly before Spike kissed her.
"I'm never leaving you again, not for long any way, if I ever went away, I would always come back to you." Spike said sincerely.
Buffy smiled and leaned up and kissed him again.
She broke the kiss and carefully placed her son in his other arm and smiled at him.
"Why don't you go and show everybody the new additions to the family."
Spike smiled at her then frowned and looked down.
"What's wrong, honey?" She said stroking his face
"Its just, the last time, we were here and I took my eye off you for a second, I looked at you and you were lying in a pool of blood. What if I go out and come back in and it happens again?" He said worriedly.
Buffy smiled up at Spike and kissed his nose
"I'll be right here waiting for you, its not gonna happen again, last time it was because was a first birth, go, its ok" She said.
Spike gave her one last longing look and kissed her forehead and stood up and walked out the door.
The tension from the Angel- Faith- Wood argument was still around, but as soon as Spike stepped out with the new born babies, it all melted away. They all cooed and fussed over them before going in and saying hi to Buffy, they all knew the issues were still there, but they let it rest for a while.
