chapter 4

Buffy walked into her room to see Willow sitting there. "Oh Buffy there you are. I was so worried when you left yesterday and didn't come back." Willow said going up and hugged Buffy. "Sorry Will I didn't mean to worry you. I just had to go and think but I'll explain all that tonight at the Scooby meeting." Buffy said pulling out of the hug. "Are you going to tell them?" Willow asked and Buffy nodded. "Yeah me and the father." Buffy said and Willow just looked at her. "Oh speaking of fathers and stuff that has to do with your baby Riley stopped by today." Willow said and Buffy shuddered. "Yeah I have to talk to him." Buffy said and Willow just looked at her. "Are you going to break up with him?" Willow asked and Buffy just nodded. "Yeah I want to see if there is anything between me and the daddy." Buffy said and Willow just looked at her. "So I take it the father took it well." Willow said and Buffy just smiled at the thought of Spike's reaction. "Yeah he was really shocked at first and then extremely excited. Willow promise me that when you find out who the father is that you wont freak." Buffy said going extremely serious. " Buffy I… I promise." Willow said and Buffy smiled. "Thanks Will now I think I'm going to take a nap before going to find Riley and take care of that." Buffy said and Willow nodded and got up to leave.

Buffy woke up a few hours later to find herself alone. Slowly Buffy got up and made her way to the bathroom. When she got back Riley was standing at her door. "I was getting ready to go find you." Buffy greeted Riley. Riley went to hug her but she stepped back. "I'm not feeling to well." Buffy explained and Riley nodded. Buffy let Riley into her room and he sat down on her bed.

"We need to talk." They both said at once. "You go first." Buffy said and Riley nodded. "I think that we aren't working anymore. You're distant and avoiding and I just don't think you want to be with me." Riley said and Buffy nodded. "I'm sorry I wasn't what you thought I was but I'm glad I met you." Buffy said and Riley nodded and got up and left. As Riley was leaving Spike was coming in.
