Chapter 13 - To be pregnant or not to be pregnant. That is the question

I sat on my bed as I rummaged trough the basket Faith left me.
I'm surprised no one went thought it checking for weapons and other things of that nature. I guess they have gotten used to Faith leaving things for me they didn't care anymore. I searched under the Herbal Essences shampoo and the Dove body wash. I found it. The home pregnancy test.
I haven't said a word to Spike. I had a plan if I was pregnant and what I would say to everyone yet I hoped I wouldn't have to lie and it was all a big mistake. I opened it from the box, quickly reading the directions then slipping the wand in my pocket. Sliding the box under my bed, I ran quickly to the bathroom.

3 minutes! 3 minutes! I have to wait three minutes! Oh ok, they'll tell you your fate but they're making you wait three minutes. 3 minutes and the truth would be told. I reread the instructions. Ok. If they is two lines then I'm pregnant. If it's one line then I'm not pregnant. That's simple enough. Right?
two and a half minutes later.
30 seconds then its time. I was now pacing around the room. I stared at my watch ok once the second hand gets to the 12 then I can check.
It was now at the 10 and I was going insane. ok now at the 11. Finally 12. I've been hurrying this for so long and now I couldn't seem to look at it. I stood above the wand with my eyes closed. I bravely opened one eye and looked.
2 lines. I'm pregnant. I'm pregnant with Spike's baby.
I placed a hand over my stomach. I felt like my world was falling apart yet there was a thrill of excitement.

I walked back to my room with a semi- smile on my face when I heard screams down the hall. I turned to see everyone surrounding a door about 10 feet down. Slowly walking to the scene. I shrugged by a few people till I saw it.
Fred Burkle was dead. She lay in the middle of her doorway. When I saw Fred my hand went imminently to my mouth. My stomach turned and flipped. She had been stabbed in the face. Now another girl was going to be have to be marked from my list.
"What's going on here." We all turned to see Officer Andrew walk in. He insisted everyone call him by his first name. He was blonde and extremely short, we all were convinced he was gay.
He came in and when he saw Tara he was just as shocked.
Not waiting to see what happened next I ran to Spikes room. I figured since everyone was distracted I had a chance to tell him
I walked up to the door that separated me and the father of my baby. I lifted my fist to the door and knocked.
It took a few seconds but I heard shuffling around the room then the door opened to reveal a half asleep Spike. his hair was a mess.
"Buffy, Luv. What's the problem?"
I stuttered but I got it out. "I...I... ne...need to te..tell you someth..thing." He moved out of the door way signaling for me to come in. I did and stood there playing with the hem of my skirt.
"What do you need to tell me?"
"I... I'm uh..." Spike could tell I have having problem telling him. He sat me down on his bed.
I simply reached in my pocket and handed him the wand. His eyes widened. I didn't know what he was thinking but I would have sold my soul just to find out.
He didn't talk for a while but when he did I was surprised.
"We can get through this." He said looking at me . He finally bared a smile.
"I figured I can tell everyone it happened before I came here. I doubt they can tell by a week or two. If they can I'll say it happened when angel raped me. Only you, me and Angel really know the truth and I doubt they will trust Angel. Cordelia only saw the first half and..." I realized I was rambling, but before I could stop Spike muffled my words with a smothering kiss.
He looked me in the eyes. "Trust me, we will get through this."

I watch u while you're sleeping
Messy hair,
chest bare,
moonlight on your skin
I wanna breathe u in
In the silence, words come easy
I can tell u now just how simple it's been 2 let u in
Don't move, this mood is a painting
We'll never find the same thing
Love, do not make a sound
Melt into me now
2 become 1
Love is so close 2 hurting
With a shake we could wake
from our own dreaming
But we must make a vow
'Cause I have waited a lifetime
Now is the right time
Love, let's make time stand still
Let this moment last until
2 become 1
Like a bird owns its wings
Like a song belongs
2 melody
U belong 2 me
I fold your arms around me
Let your flesh,
your breath,
your love,
surround me
Oh, u feel like home
