Title Butterfly

Pairing Giles/ Anya

Warning excessive sappiness

She was so new to this world pink and wrinkled. Looking at her Giles was reminded of a butterfly just emerged from the cocoon. He already saw the promise of her Mother's beauty. Giles felt a shiver of fear, how in the world would he keep his promise to share equally in child care if he was afraid to touch the baby?

Anya smiled and gave a tired laugh. "I know what it looks like honey, but Clem had nothing to do with this."

Giles bent down and gave Mother and daughter each a kiss flavored with love and laughter.
