Buffy Summers sat quietly on the hospital bed while the doctor went out to check on her test. Buffy hadn't been feeling all the good the past week, and finally her husband, Angel, had insisted that she go see a doctor about it. She made him sit in the waiting room while she went in. Now she sat there looking at the boring pictures on the wall of the small white room.
The door opened and the doctor walked in," Well, Buffy, I have some good news for you," she said as she laid her clipboard down on the desk.
" Good as in there is nothing wrong with me, or good as there is nothing to wrong with me?" Buffy asked anxiety.
" You are pregnant," the doctor said with a smile.
" Pregnant?" Buffy asked surprised.
Buffy and Angel had been trying to have a baby for awhile now, but she hadn't got pregnant . Now finding out she finally was made Buffy so happy, and excited about telling Angel.
" How long?" Buffy asked.
" About a month," the doctor answered." Now we have to set you up for your first check up. Next week at four on Thursday is your appointment. Does that work for you?" she asked.
" That's fine," Buffy said hopping off the bed.
The doctor talked to Buffy a little more. Then Buffy went out to give Angel the good news.
" So what's wrong?" Angel asked concerned for his wife.
Buffy couldn't help but smile," I'm pregnant," she said happily throwing her arms around her husband.
It took Angel a moment to let the news resistser. Then he wrapped his arms around his wife and pulled her into a tight loving hug.
" Buffy, that is so great," he said excited.
" So what do you think about turning the empty room next to ours into a nursery," Buffy asked as the couple headed out of the hospital.
" I like that idea," Angel said putting his arm around his life.
They headed towards the car holding onto one and another.
" Hello," Joyce Summers said into her telephone.
" Hi, Mom, guess what?" Buffy said as she stirred spaghetti for supper.
" What?" Joyce asked noticing the happiness in her daughter's voice.
" How do you feel about being a grandma?" Buffy simply asked.
" Buffy, are you pregnant?" Joyce asked hoping it was the truth.
She had wanted grandchildren for a while now, and with Buffy being an only child she only had one chance.
" Yes, I am one month along," Buffy explained smiling as she imagined her mother's joy.
" Sweetheart that is wonderful," Joyce exclaimed. " How is Angel taking the news?"
" He's in the empty room by ours measuring it for the new carpet and baby furniture," Buffy answered.
Joyce laughed, "That's exactly what your father did when we found out I was going to have you."
Buffy joined her mother in laughter," Angel is so excited about this baby, and so am I. I'm going shopping tomorrow for a baby crib and maybe some other things."
"Shopping for the baby should be fun. Looks like Grandma Joyce is going to have to start shopping as well," Joyce said sitting down at the kitchen table. "My grandchild is going to be spoiled."
" Just not to spoiled," Buffy pointed out.
" Buffy, your are my only daughter. I am going to spoil my grandchildren. It's the grandparents job after all," Joyce joked.
" So Angel and I are thinking about naming Willow and Xander the godparents and Giles the baby's adopted grandfather," Buffy explained putting the pot of spaghetti on the table for supper.
" I think, no correction, I know they will love that idea," Joyce said.
" Buffy, can you come here for a second?" Angel yelled from the baby's room.
" In a second," Buffy yelled back. " Mom, I have to go, but I will call you later okay?"
"Okay, have fun sweetie," Joyce said and then hung up.
Buffy hung up the phone, and then went into the baby's room.
" You called?" Buffy said as she walked up beside her husband.
" We have plenty of room here for the baby crib, and some other baby furniture. I think, we should put a new light blue carpet in here though," Angel suggested.
" What if the baby is a girl?" Buffy asked wrapping her arms around her husbands waist.
" Light blue is good for a girl and a boy," Angel pointed out kissing the top of his wife's head.
" True," Buffy agreed with a grin.
Angel turned towards his wife and took her into his arms. Together the two of them walked out of the room, and went into the kitchen to fix supper.
The next day Buffy and Angel got up, and went to the big baby store over on Maine Street. There they bought a cute little white crib, a darling dresser to put the baby's clothes in, a play pin to match, and a changing table. After making all the arrangements to have the stuff delivered to their house later on Buffy and Angel went out to lunch. When they got home they started putting the baby crib together. It was late by the time they had everything setup just the way they wanted it. They still needed some more stuff, but Buffy said that could wait until later.
" The baby's room is nice," Buffy commented.
" I know," Angel said and kissed his wife's forhead. " Let's go to bed."
Buffy smiled," Sounds good to me. It's been a long day."
December 24: Sunnydale General Hospital
" Come on, Honey, push," Angel coached.
" I'm pushing," Buffy said between clenched teeth.
Buffy and Angel were in the delivery room. During Christmas Eve dinner Buffy's water had broken causing her to go into labor. Angel and the others helped her into the car, and Angel as nervous as he was couldn't wait for the baby to come. Mrs. Summers, Xander, Cordelia, Willow, and Oz were all in the waiting room.
" One more push and the baby should be out," the doctor promised.
" Come on, Love," Angel said holding Buffy's hand.
Buffy pushed with all her might, and soon heard the sound of her and Angel's baby crying. The doctor took the baby after Angel had cut the cord, and wrapped the baby in a cute little blanket. The doctor then laid the baby down in Buffy's arms.
" Congratulations, you two have a beautiful baby girl," The doctor said smiling.
" Angel, look at her," Buffy said looking at their precious baby girl.
" She's beautiful," Angel said, and he gently picked up one of his daughter's little hands. " Just like her mother."
Buffy smiled, " Out little Serenity Anne Summers," she said using the name that her and Angel had picked out months ago.
The nurse came and took Serenity to be cleaned off, and after Buffy was taken care of she was taken back to a room. Angel went and told the gang about his and Buffy's little Serenity, and lead them into see Buffy. They arrived in the room just as the nurse was giving Serenity back to Buffy.
" She's so beautiful," Joyce commented tears on the reams of her eyes.
Angel gently picked up his little girl," She looks so much like Buffy," he said with pride.
" She has your hair color," Buffy pointed out.
" May I hold her?" Joyce asked.
" Of course," Angel said kissing the top of his little girl's head before handing her over the her grandmother.
" She's so little," Willow commented smiling a Willow smile.
" But I betcha she'll get to be a handful. You ready for that, Angel," Xander asked.
" I say bring it on," Angel replied sitting down by his wife's bed and took her hand into his.
" Giles, would you like to hold her?" Buffy asked her ex-watcher and now second father to her, which is why she want him to be Serenity's grandfather.
" I be most honored," Giles replied.
Joyce laid the baby in Giles arms, and he smiled down at the carbon copy of his ex-slayer.
Each one of the gang took turns holding Serenity. Finally it was time for them to say good-bye to the happy family of three. Willow and Xander were happy about being godparent to such a bundle of joy, and Joyce and Giles were happy about their grandchild, and even though he wasn't there Hank Summers had called and said he was happy about being a grandfather. After everyone was gone the nurse came and took Serenity to the nursery leaving Buffy and Angel alone.
" I love you, Love," Angel told his tired wife.
" I love you, my Angel," Buffy replied sleepily.
Angel kissed Buffy on the lips and help her hand until she fell asleep. He then went and looked out the window. Angel thanked God and the Angels for his and Buffy's gift this Chrismas Eve. Buffy and Serenity were the most import treasure he could ever have, and they were the world to him. He made a promise to himself that night that he would always work hard to keep them happy and safe.
THE END
