"Where have you been?" Xander said angry, "we were supposed to go patroling and yet you were no where to be found."
Buffy sat there very uncomfortable. She was moving around in her chair uneasily with sweat running down her neck. What was she supposed to say that she was sleeping with a vampire who she claimed to have hated for around six years.
"Well, I needed to be alone and Xander I am so sorry that I didn't tell you that i wasn't going patroling," Buffy let out a big sigh. This lying isn't that hard after all she thought.
After she said that they all went their separate ways. Now she had to live with the fact that she enjoyed lying to her friends who had been there for her ever since she moved to Sunnydale and her sister who is usually there. There was no way that she could ever tell them that she had feelings for Spike.
"I'm going out for a walk," Buffy yelled as she was leaving, "have a great day at school Dawn and Willow I will be back later to talk."
Before anyone in the house could ask her where she was going she was already half way down the block. She ended up at Spike's again, but this time she swore that she was just going to talk.
Willow was watching tv, but the more she just sat there the more she thought about what she was missing by not doing magic. Even though, it tore her up inside to have to do everything the human way she had to stop the magic for Tara.
Then the phone rang, "Hello, Willow!" Giles said so cheerfully, "How is everything going? Try any new spells lately?"
"Giles, everything is going pretty well. I have some news and I hope that you are happy for me," Willow said hesitating, "I am never doing magic again."
"Oh My Gosh! That is wonderful news. I don't know if I could be more happy for you!" Giles was so happy because he knew the path people who let magic get the best of them led.
They talked some more and then they hung up because Giles had to go to a book sale. Willow made her way to the shower because she felt so dirty and sick.
When Xander arrived home he was horrified to see Anya lying on the ground of the bathroom. He could tell that she was throwing up.
"ANYA!" he yelled so scared.
He called 911 and they took her to the hospital where he waited in the waiting room. Then he realized that he should call Willow and Buffy.
"Wil, you have to come to the hospital! I went home and found Anya on the floor of the bathroom! Hurry and tell Buffy," he said knowing that he had the wiggins.
Hours later, the doctor came out with the results of the tests he was taking on Anya. From the look on his face Xander could tell that he was not going to like this. With Wil and Buff standing right next to him letting him know that they were there for him, they awaited for the doctor to tell the results.
"After performing some tests on Anya we have found out that she is pregnant and that the reason for her fainting was that there was a small complication with the baby," the doctor continued, "but not to worry everything is back to normal and you may go and visit, but she cannot be released for a few more says."
Xander just stood there trying to understand the news that he had just received. The doctor also told him that he did not tell her the news because she was still asleep.
"I think that I should just go in right now and tell her the news," Xander told them stopping the girls in their tracks.
He made his way to the door and looked in the window and all he could think about was I am going to be a father! How am I going to tell Anya? He opened the door and sat down next to her bed.
