chapter 7

Buffy had woken up when Spike had started his explanation to Xander but tried to pretend she was asleep. "Give it up luv I know you're awake." Spike said kissing Buffy on the top of her head. "The only question I have is how long have you been awake?" Spike asked and Buffy smiled sheepishly. "You heard huh." Spike said and Buffy nodded. Spike looked away embarrassed. "Hey look at me." Buffy said pulling Spike's head to face her. "It was sweet and I am really glad that I'm pregnant and even more glad that it's yours." Buffy said then leaned up and kissed him. When they pulled away they just sat there staring in each other's eyes. "I love you." Spike whispered softly and Buffy just stared at him trying to figure out if she heard him right. Spike must have guessed that's what she was thinking. "I love you Buffy Anne Summers." Spike said again and Buffy just smiled and kissed him. "I love you too." Buffy said and Spike just gave her the same look she gave him. "I love you William." Buffy said again and Spike just kissed her again. When they pulled apart Spike picked Buffy up and carried her down to his bed downstairs and laid her on. Then laid down on top of her. "I love you." Spike whispered and Buffy smiled. They fell asleep in each other's arms.

Buffy woke up before Spike the next morning and just laid there watching Spike sleep. Spike woke up a few minutes later to find her still staring at him. "Good morning my love." Spike said and Buffy just smiled at him then kissed him. "Good morning." Buffy said after they pulled apart. "How you feeling luv?" Spike asked and Buffy shook her head. "Not good." Buffy said fighting back the nausea. Spike just rubbed her back. "You need the bathroom it's right down the hall there." Spike said pointing and Buffy nodded. "I think I'll be ok." Buffy said moving her hand from her mouth to over her stomach. Spike's hand went to cover hers. "Spike will you come with me tonight to go talk to my mom. I know she heard us announce it yesterday but I want to go and talk to her and explain stuff to her." Buffy said and Spike smiled. "I'd love to pet." Spike said then kissed Buffy. "Well as much as I don't want to leave I should go get changed and take a shower and see how Will is dealing." Buffy said and Spike nodded. He had stuff he had to do as well. "Alright luv. I'll meet you at your dorm at sunset ok." Spike said and Buffy nodded then got up. "Bye Spike I love you." Buffy said then kissed him. "I love you too." Spike said walking Buffy up to the door.
