A/N: Sorry for it taking so long to update. I've been really busy. Enjoy and I will update soon I hope.

Willow had arrived home and Giles came up to her and whispered something so softly she hardly heard her.

"What? She asked him.

"How was she?" He asked a little louder but still in a soft whisper.

"Fine. Why are you whispering?" She whispered. "It's really not worth it. they need to know and hardly anybody is up anyways."

"Oh..." Giles coughed slightly. "Right I um don't know."

"Okay then." Willow whispered to herself. "Wheres Faith I think she has a right to know now regardless of Buffy's order not to tell."

Giles pointed to Buffy's room. "She's real depressed I think you should..." He started before realizing Willow was already opening the door to Buffy's room. he grabbed her arm and stopped her.

"Giles she has the right to know Buffy is alive." Willow said in a loud voice that made Giles release her. "She has the right." Willow gave Giles a glaring look then nito her best friends room to comfort her bestfriends lover.

"What do you want?" Faith sniffed. "Cause unless you have good news as to Buffy then I dont wanna talk."

"Actually I do." Willow said. "Buffy isnt dead."

"Don't even try giving me that Will. I've heard it from Giles earlier when I called for you. He came instead. I want to know if she isn't dead where is she? how is she? and why did I see her die?"

"She hadn't lost all of her blood when you brought her home she's at the hosptal she's doing fine though she looks like crap. Gile checked her pulse when you brought her home and it was faint very faint. I didn't feel it and I assume you didn't either but he did and we called 911 to come and take care of her. She's in stable condition---" Willow cut off as the phone rang.

Faith picked it up "Summers, Rosenburge and Harison Residance This is Faith speaking. how may I help you?" She answered trying to keep the tears out of her voice.

"Um is Willow there?" Came a voice.

"Um Yeah who's this?"

"My names..." There was a pause before the voice continued "Jaki"

"Okay." Faith said "Will a person named Jaki is on the phone for you." She handed the phone to Willow.

"Jaki? What are you doing calling now your suppose to be on bed rest. Why not have called my CELL?" Willow said.

"Will. I would have called it but I knew if I called the home phone and disguised my voice I'd be able to hear Faith. But anyways. I'm out of here tomorrow the doctor said. Tell Faith that I'm alive for me please and bring her with." Buffy (who had called herself Jaki to Faith) told Willow.

"You tell her. She's your..."She broke off realizing Faith was standing right behind her.

"She's right behind you isn't she?" Buffy asked figuring it's why she stopped.

"Yeah. Here Faith she has something to tell you." she told Faith then "The truth got it"she told Buffy.

"Okay" Both the girls said at once.

"Faith talking again." Faith said

"Hey baby" Buffy said.

"Buffy?" Faith said unsure. "B is it really you?" Tears rolling down her face.

"Yeah babe it's me." Buffy replied.

"Oh my god but you I saw you you died." Faith said

"Well I was dead for a few seconds and then Giles brought me back I think anyways I'm alive." Buffy said. "Anyways I don't stay dead for long anyways."

Both the girls laughed for a few then Faith asked "When do you get to come home? I really miss you baby"

"Tomorrow according to my doctor. Latest is Thursday." Buffy responded.

"I can't wait to see you B. When so visiting hours end?" Faith asked her

"Ended as soon as Willow left but they said if I had a person come to stay the night with me then visiting with them is all night." Buffy said.

"I'm gonna come B. I have to see you." Faith said

"Okay." Buffy smiled to herself "See you soon." "I hope"She added to herself.

Less then an hour later Faith arrived at the hospital and asked where Buffy was.

"Visiting hours are over dear. Unless you are Family."

"I am family. Please just let me see her. I just got news this morning she was here." Faith teared up.

"Whats your relation?" The nurse asked.

"Mother in law." Faith said. "Her dad Married me a month ago."

"Alright follow me." the nurse said and walked to buffy's room. "I warn you this is against hospital rules Mother in laws shouldn't be allowed in."

"Listen lady I'm no mother in law. I'm her lover." She said "And I happen to help her save your ass from Vampires and Demons nightly.

so just let me in get that stupid look off your face and don't ask anymore questions got it."

The nurse didn't ask anymore questions and did as Faith said and let her in.

"Thank you." Faith entered Buffy's Hospital room .

"Hey Baby. Nurse give you a problem? Cause I could report it." Buffy said.

"Nah It's all good. How are you?" Faith said in reply.

"Better. Lucky I have super heal ability." Buffy said. "How about you? You look all Pale."

"I'm doing okay." Faith said not wanting to admit she had been crying all day.

"I missed you" Buffy said.

"I missed you to babe" Faith replied walking closer to Buffy.

(back at the house)

"Willow wheres Faith?" Giles asked.

"Oh she went to the hospital to see Buffy."

"She what?"

"She went to the hostital to see BUFFY" Willow put extra emphisis on the last word.

"And you let her go?"

"Yeah. She has a right to see Buffy if she wants and besides Buffy asked her to come."

"She what?" Giles looked motified. "Willow you know Buffy Isn't suppose to have guests right now and you know what Faith has.." He broke off as Xander paused next to him.

"Has done? Giles man lighten up. Faith isn't going to harm anybody at the hospital." Willow replied.

"Wow lets back up here a second. Faiths gone to see who where?" Xander said puzzled.

"Faith went to see Buffy at the Hospital. Buffy ased her to and I'm guessing Faith got in considering she's not back yet." Willow said.

"Okay. Wiat you let her go. Willow you know that If Faith doesn't get her way she might kill the nurse or a doctor. That would be a bad. We have to go get her." Xander said.

"She wouldn't kill if she wanted to stay with Buffy and we all know she does so she wouldn't have killed just to see her." Willow assured the guys. "I know she wouldn't."

"Well I'm going" Xander said and Giles nodded in agreement.

"Me to."Giles said as he and Xander walked out of the front door.

"Guys! Guys! Please wait will you." Willow said. "If your leaving you have to take me too. I care about them both just as much if not more then you."

Giles found that hard to believe but let Willow come.

(hospital)

Giles, Willow, and Xander walked up to the front desk.

"Hello. Welcome to Cleveland hospital. Visiting hours are over unless you are family. How may I help you?" The Nurse behind the counter rambled off as she had so many times before.

"Yes we are here to see Buffy. I am her Uncle. This is my son and daughter. we would like to see her please." Giles said.

"I'm sorry but I have already been Tricked once and the red head is her best friend so I know you must be really sad but you can't see her unless you can provide proof of being on her family tree."

"I thought you might say that." Giles whispered.

Willow wisked out the Family line adding her giles and Xander to it in the process under the last name of Summers. "This proof enough for you lady?" She asked handing the family tree to the nurse.

"How come you didn't say you had this. Of course of course right this way." The nurse said realizing she had just told family of a pacient they couldn't see her. "She's in here. Of course so is another girl." She pointed in and saw Faith next to Buffy both smiling and happy.

Giles opened the door and went in with Willow and Xander following him and the nurse going back to her normal position at the front desk.

"GILES?" Buffy said. "Oh my god what are you doing here and" Seeing Willow and Xander "With them?"

"They thought that if Faith couldn't get in she would kill the person who said no so she could see you and I was right she hadn't. She was smart and had her way in planned before she got here just as we did now can we go Giles it's obvious I was right now." Willow said. "They need their time alone."

Giles nodded. "Yes I suppose you are right." Giles coughed softly "It was great to see you Buffy." He said leaving the room.

"Not going to stay a bit longer for a visit? That was short. Did she kick you out?" The Nurse asked as the three where on their way out.

"Oh no um We just remembered we have to get home so we can make sure her sister and her friends are okay. They don't know that she's here. they thought she died. I just got word of it yesterday because Jasmine called to tell me she was here." Willow said. "Have a blessed night."

"Okay you have fun."

"Oh we will. Bye." They all said as they left.

(just as they get back)

Dawn was sitting on the porch with the cordless phone in her hand having just gotten off the phone with the nurse at the hospital. As she saw the car pull up out front she got up and walked over to it. When Giles got out of the passengers side she slapped him. "Basterard." She said.

"What did I do?" Giles said.

"Why didn't you tell me Buffy was still alive? Why didn't you tell me that you where leaving to go see her. Did it ever occur to you that I anted to see her? that I wanted to know that she was alive?" Dawn asked near tears.

"Dawnie we were going to tell you but..." Willow began when Dawn walked to her and kicked her.

"Dumbass."

"I deserve that but she didn't want you to know. She said she wanted her homecoming to be a suprise." Willow said. "For you and the others."

"Then why did Faith get to know? And before me I mean hello I'm her sister. Why is Faith so important?" Dawn asked.

"Faith and Buffy are going out." Xander said. "So Buffy told her before you. She wanted it to be a suprise that she was alive. So how many people have you told? How many of them know now that she's alive?"

"So the girlfriend gets to know but not the sister? Great." Dawn said.

"Dawnie answer my question HOW MANY PEOPLE KNOW?" He emphisized the question.

"You 3 me whoever you had told before me and well me. I haven't told any of the others."

"Good." Giles said. "Don't tell them. Buffy is coming home tomorrow and she wants it to be a suprise so act suprised when we get her home okay."

"Alright," Dawn said, "I'll act suprised."
