Bloody Hell
Chapter 17- It was a movie…
Buffy quickly recovered from the shock of her friends. She turned to look at Spike, her hand that was only a moment ago resting on his shoulder, was placed on his throat in a threatening way. "Hi guys." She called, still looking at Spike. "I was just telling the Bleached Wonder how fun it's going to be when I dust him…if he doesn't stop his complaining. What'd you think? Fun, huh?"
The gang relaxed, realizing the Buffy was just threatening Spike. They were okay with this. Or…more okay then the other possibility.
"Buffy!" Dawn scolded. "You can't be like that to him, he's pregnant!" Dawn walked over to her sister, pulling her off.
"Fine, fine. Ruin my fun." Buffy mumbled. On with the show!
"Spike, are you okay?" Dawn asked, worriedly.
"Fine, bit." Spike sat up, but then promptly fell back, wincing when his head hit the sofa.
He tried it again, slowly sitting up. He put his hand to the back of his head, and it pulled back bloody. "Bullocks." He sighed.
"Oh god! Angel!" Buffy turned to her ex-boyfriend. "Why didn't you see that when you put him back here?!"
"I did." Angel smiled, but catching her glare, it quickly faded.
"Why do you care, Buff?" Xander asked, still not completely convinced.
"Well…he has a baby in him. This is big. We might need him for…future research."
"Good point. Let's get him cleaned up. He must have hit his head pretty hard when he fainted." Giles walked into the front.
The rest of the gang soon followed, waiting while Willow and Tara cleaned his wound.
"How do you feel?" Tara asked when they finished.
"Fine, pet. Vampire healing…"
"Well, I was actually talking about…f-finding out you were pregnant."
"Oh. Well…s'not the best news I've ever gotten. But Peaches is getting a big laugh outta it." Spike spoke like Angel wasn't in the room. "We have any idea how exactly this has happened though?"
"It's a mystery." Willow sighed, "I've only ever heard of a case like this once before…" Everyone looked at her. "Well…the guy wasn't a vampire. And he actually had a girlfriend…so they actually…and uh, it was a movie."
"Very helpful, Wil." Buffy sighed. "I guess it's research time."
