The Aftermath
"Buffy, sweetie wake-up you've got school in fifteen minutes, don't forget Xander's driving you today!" Joyce hurried down the stairs to start and make the pancakes.
"Ugh!! I get four months of cancer and I don't get one month off of school!" Buffy raised her hand sleepily and hit the snooze button on her alarm. "It's going to be a lot of work to make Buffy pretty this morning!" Getting up Buffy dragged her feet to her closet. She wanted to look really nice just in case Angel would catch a glimpse of her. Her and Angel hadn't been seeing each other because they both felt that they needed some time to deal with her magic recovery. Buffy new about demons, but Angel had been taking it a little harder than she thought. He loved having her back or so he said when they would talk once a week on the phone, but it was a tragic ordeal and they needed to get over it. She just missed him so much! Missed having him to hold her, kiss her, not to mention, again turning pink Buffy stopped right there and drew her attention to the open closet.
Grabbing a red tank and a short skirt Buffy dashed into the bathroom to volumize her hair and put on her make-up. Suddenly Dawnie wobbled in and Buffy placed her on the counter.
"Buffy be pretty?" Dawnie looked up at her with those big brown eyes.
"Buffy tries to be pretty!" Buffy smiled and took the blush brush and brushed it along her cheekbone.
"Dawnie want to be pretty too! Make dawnie pretty!" Dawn slammed her fist on the bathroom counter a bit.
"I don't know dawnie mommy doesn't want little girls to wear make- up!" Dawn looked up at her with a little pout and her bottom lip quivering.
"Okay, okay but just a little I have to go!" Dawn smiled and Buffy told her to be very still. She brushed on some blush and gave her a bit of light pink lipstick than covered it with a gloss! A slayer and a beautician too! Man I got skills! Buffy smiled and powdered dawn's nose.
"Okay, 1, 2, 3!" Buffy picked Dawn up and swirled her to the mirror! Dawn smiled and scampered off downstairs. Buffy combed her hair twice through and glanced at her watch! Eep! She had 5 minutes until Xander would be there.
"Buffy what did you do to Dawn!" Joyce was at the bottom of the stairs staring at Buffy holding up a very make-uped little girl.
"Well she pouted! You know that pout!" Buffy whined desperately trying to get out of it.
"Come on Dawn wants to say goodbye to you outside."
Buffy dashed down the stairs shoved a toast in her mouth and took Dawn by the hand. As she walked outside she stood on the driveway with Dawn in hand waiting for Xander to pull up. Angel was on his porch reading the paper no doubt. Oop if I could only see his face. Just ignore him, just ignore him, breath one two...Dawn? She realized that the little girl had jutted towards Angel while she had been thinking she ran after dawn but it was too late.
"Angel, Angel" Dawn shouted as she wrapped her arms around his leg. He dropped the newspaper and let out a big smile looking down at Dawn.
"Hey squirt! Where's your mommy you shouldn't be out her alone??" That's when Angel saw Buffy running towards them and scooping up Dawn in her arms. She was gorgeous a spitting image of health. "Dawnie you know better than to run down the street without me! Uh sorry about that Angel we will just be going now" Buffy shot daggers at Dawn. Could this be anymore awkward.
"Oh yeah right! Um you like nice today." Angel tried to make with the small talk.
Buffy blushed a bit and replied, "Yeah you too."
"Buffy and Angel sitting in a tree k-I-s-s-I-n-g first comes.." Buffy put her hand firmly across Dawns mouth and carried her down the porch leaving Angel laughing wildly.
"Bye bye Angy, I love you!" She waved letting her head drop onto Buffy's shoulder.
"Bye squirt I love you too." He looked into Buffy's eyes for the first time in two months. She had changed. She was older, tiered, could he say, hotter??
"Uh thanks for um, you know looking after Dawn and all" Buffy smiled and turned a bit.
"No problem, if she needs to be babysat tell your mom Dawns welcome over anytime!" Angel smiled. Oh crap she probably thinks that I will have that summer over just not her. Oh well she probably doesn't/
"Uh yeah sure, well Xander's here to pick me up we best be off!" Buffy smiled one last time as if to flash what he was missing and jumped into Xander's car leaving Dawn with Joyce. It almost pained him to see Buffy with nother man. He knew that Xander and Buffy were striclty friends but he couldn't help but wonder that they were.more. That day when she glided up to him in her little mini-skirt and boiuncy blond hair he wanted to call the "break" thing quits. But he knew he wasn't ready not just yet.
------school-----
Buffy's day had been going quite smoothly, she had gotten back and everyone was really happy to see her. Apparently when she was sick a lot of kids visited her and made a little memorial at the school for her. She was a popular cheerleader, but she had never spoken to any of them. However they all secretly knew that she had saved their lives more than once.
"So what's the what is good old Sunnydale?" Buffy ran up behind Willow and tapped her on the shoulder.
"Nothing much, just um well, a certain male caucasian has taken a certain interest in a certain, moi!" Willow beamed at Buffy. Her cheeks were turning pink and so were the tips of her ears.
"Mais qui? Ooo Willow someone's got the hots for you!" Buffy shouted out not too loudly, but ewhat she couldn't understand was why Willow was shooting daggers at her.
"Who's got the hots for Willow?" Xander asked in desperation.
"Uh know one Xand, you know I was trying to make her blush!" Buffy finally catching on that Willow's mystery guy happened to be the one and only Xander Harris. She winked at Willow and gave her a "Oh yeah!" kinda smirk. They continued to walk don the hall to the cafeteria when suddenly Buffy became rather dizzy, almost nausious. She finally lost her balance and fell to the floor.
" So I wonder what's for lunch buffy! Buffy?" Xander turned around to find Buffy had collapsed on the ground. "Oh God Buffy are you okay?" Ever since the cancer everyone had been on edge with her.
"I..i am fine I guess? I was just so dizzy. I think I am going to be sick!" With her hand covereing her mouth she ran to the bathroom with Willow following after. In the bathroom Buffy was vomiting her head off. It was like it never stopped, but finally she was able to regain her composure and walk out of the stall.
"Oh god Buffy what's wrong she should call the hospital." Willow suddenly felt as though the cancer went into remission.
"Uh Will it's probably just a virus you know those things!" Buffy smiled, trying to hide her worried face.
"Um yeah okay well let's get some lunch." Willow shook her head and went to the cafetieria. Xander was already there to make that sure things were ok. Willow nodded her head as if to say she was fine and Buffy came with her lunch tray.
"Ugh green jello and tuna surprise yummy!" Xander joked sarcastically then his face dropped as he saw Buffy down the tuna surprise. "Uh Buffy you hate tuna??"
With her mouth half full she began to speak, " I dono it's weird guys but I have this sudden craving for tuna and chocolate! Anyone have any chocolate?" Xander took his hand and raised it to Buffy's forehead. "She seems alright?" They both shrugged and made silent expressions of concern.
Angel was still on his porch when Buffy got home but he hadn't waited there all day he just came outside hoping to catch Buffy as she went home. And there she was. He saw her dashing down the sidewalk and he yelled out, "Hello there," with a grin she smiled a bit then took her hand to her mouth and ran to right inside her house up the stairs and in the bathroom where she proceeded to vomit.
Angel was in complete bewilderment. Maybe she was over him? Meanwhile Joyce walked in on Buffy in the bathroom to find her vomiting up tuna surprise or what was left of it.
"Oh God Buffy, the cancer, I knew it was too true to be good when you miraculously snapped out of it. It's in remission, oh dear." She started to cry and rushed Buffy to the car. "We are going to the Doctor's office right now." Angel's ears perked up at this. Was Buffy ok?
---------Doctor's office-------
"And how is our little mircle girl doing?" The doctor beamed at what had been declared a miracle healing.
" You tell us, I think she is in remission." The doctor's face dropped and rushed Buffy into the nearest room. After twenty minutes the doctor called for Joyce to come in the room.
"Mrs. Summers we have some news. We did find something. But it's a different kind of miracle. Joyce congratulations, Buffy's pregnant!" The doctor beamed and Jocye fainted. See there is never a "normal" day in good old Sunnydale.
"Buffy, sweetie wake-up you've got school in fifteen minutes, don't forget Xander's driving you today!" Joyce hurried down the stairs to start and make the pancakes.
"Ugh!! I get four months of cancer and I don't get one month off of school!" Buffy raised her hand sleepily and hit the snooze button on her alarm.
