"Miss Summers, the doctor is on his way." The nurse said. She got a wheelchair for Buffy to sit in. Spike helped her in.

"Hang in there, luv." He tried to comfort her.

Not soon after the doctor came and put her in a room to have her checked out.

"Well, Miss Summers, you're too far dilated to stop the process now. Looks like you two will have a baby by the end of tonight." Buffy didn't notice how the doctor had assumed Spike was the father. Spike didn't either, on account of him focusing all his attention on Buffy.

"You're baby is only 3 or 4 weeks early." the doctor stated. This, however caught her attention. Four weeks was pretty early to her and he made it seem like no big deal. The nurses came in and started preping. She tried to see what exactly they were doing when another contraction hit her. She squeased Spike's hand. Spike was used to a little pain, but Buffy had super-human strength and it was getting to be a little unbearable.

"Alright Buffy, you're going to have to push." For once, Buffy did as she was told.

After about a three hours, she gave one last push, encouraged by Spike.

"Congratulations! It's a beautiful baby girl!" The piercing cry came shortly after. "Looks like she's breathing on her own. That's always a good sign." the doctor assured them both.

The nurses cleaned and wrapped the baby in a pink blanket and handed her to Buffy.

"God, she's gorgeous..." Buffy marveled.

"Just like her mum no doubt." Spike said softly.

"Here..." Buffy motioned the baby to him. Spike was reluctant. She placed the baby girl in his arms. He was taken back by her resemblance to Buffy and how much she trusted him to hold her child.

"She needs a name." Buffy remembered. "How about...Olivia?"

"Livvie it is then." Spike finalized as he let the infant grab onto his finger. In the few short moments he'd known her, he had already fallen in love with her.

Buffy saw it as well. It was evident in the nickname he had just given her. It was astonishing. However, what was more astonishing was how Buffy had become attatched to him. Was she in love with him?

"Maybe I am..." she answered herself, smiling.


I should have the next one up soon!
