Chapter28

One year later

The church was packed and Spike and Buffy were ready to take the long dive into marriage. Buffy and her bridesmaids were ready and standing right outside the church door. Spike was standing at the front with their baby Jeremy in his arms, Wesley is his best man and Xander is the other man in front facing the doors. Buffy's grandfather opens the doors and the parade of girls start. Buffy follows with her white dress; the train is as long as the aisle of the church. She walks to Spike; who in turns hands Jeremy to Xander to hold during the wedding.

The priest clears his throat, "We are gathered together to bring William and Buffy together. It has been along road to get here but they both are well counseled on life in a union of marriage. If there is anyone who wishes to protest do so or hold your tongue." Spike and Buffy turn to the other people but none protest. The rest of the service is nice and the new family goes to the reception.

Spike dances with Buffy all night. On one dance he brings Jeremy to dance floor to dance with all three of them. "Spike, this is one of the best days of my life." Buffy whispers into Spike's ear. "Remember that when we leave and we have to leave the baby with Willow and Xander." Spike teases her.

Spike walks up to the band that is playing; he takes the mike and starts to speak. "Can I have everybody attention?" The whole hall becomes quiet, "I want to thank everyone for their support and Buffy and I wish all you the love that we share. I know that there are cameras and the press right outside but in here it is just us." Spike picks up Jeremy and walks to Buffy's side.

"Once I thought that no one would love me for myself, but Buffy came into my life and for once I knew that she loved me. We both thought that love would never come to us; I guess we were just impatience. Buffy and Jeremy are now my life; if they are not happy I am not happy. So I embark one small bit of wisdom to you all; love is female dog and I am its master and proud to say it."

Buffy and Spike spend years following their dreams but never forgetting what brought them together. They found true love in the smallest thing they share.

They live happily ever after the end
