Chapter XX - What Happened in The Room

Prague, The Hospital: Room 401

When they got to Buffy's room she was tried and sweaty. Alex heard Spike's sharp intake of breath.

Buffy's face hardened when she saw them or rather when she saw the woman that had come in after them.

"Who is she?" she asked suspiciously. Her eyes were narrowed.

"She's here to help us, Pet." spike answered.

"Spi-"

A nurse burst into the room.

"It's a boy, Mrs. Summers." she said as she placed the little baby blue bundle she was carrying into Buffy's arms. Spike saw the worried slayer's features soften as she looked at her son.

The little child had the exact same effect on his father. Alex marveled on difference this child had caused.

"Mr. William we must go." the woman said.

"One moment miss-" Alex replied sharply. She bit her lip as she stumbled over the name... she knew it... she knew it...

"Miranda." the woman supplied.

"Miranda." Alex nodded. "Give them a second."

Buffy looked at Spike suddenly she forgot about everyone else in the room. She bit her lip almost shyly. She hadn't really decided on a name yet. She had thought that it was only fair that Spike get to help pick.

"What do you want to name him?" Spike asked, as if he was reading her mind.

Buffy thought for a moment. Then she came up with an idea.

"What was your father's name?" she asked after a while.

Too shocked for words Spike just stared at her. She raised her eyebrows waiting for an answer.

"You want to name the baby after my father?" he asked incredulously.

"He is half-Spike." Buffy rationalized. She continued looking at him expectantly. "Hank is a major ick factor and I really don't want to name him 'Giles' so, what was his name? Your father?"

"Alexander." Spike muttered. The word felt strange in his mouth. He had not uttered it in that context for the last hundred years.

Buffy smiled shooting a glance at Alex.

"We already have a daughter named after him then." she said.

Spike grinned.

"Unfortunately."

"How about William?" her tone demanded an affirmative. "We could name him after you."

Spike was only to happy to oblige.

"William James." Buffy said firmly. "We could call him Will." then she paused, her face uncertain and self conscious. "Do you like it?"

Spike looked at her intently.

"Of course, Pet." he said.

She turned to Alex, who nodded.

"Mr. William." Miranda cut in. "I'm sorry, but we really must hurry."

Spike frowned then looked at the slayer, she looked exhausted and who wouldn't be, she had just given birth.

"Couldn't we give just a few more minutes?" he asked. "Slayer or not, the girl has just had a baby."

"I'm sorry, but I'm afraid we must." Miranda insisted.

Spike nodded. he understood.

"Very well." he said, and then he turned to Buffy. "Give William to his older sister." His tone commanded obedience for some bizarre reason. Buffy complied, handing the baby to Alex, as soon as she did, Spike picked her up. "Let's go, Pet,"

"Where are we going?" he asked Miranda as she led them out of the room. Buffy had already fallen asleep in his arms.

"To my family's residence. You shall be safe there."

She led them out to an expensive looking luxury car. One of thugs got on a motorcycle behind them. Miranda got into the front seat. Spike, Buffy and Alex hurriedly clambered in. Spike was surprised to find a baby seat ready and waiting for little William, it even had the vampire from Seasame Street all over it.

Spike took a moment to chuckle at it.

"How festive." Alex muttered securing her brother into the seat.

The driver started and soon they were pulling onto an international highway just off the hospital.

"I see you were expecting us." Spike commented.

"I wasn't the only one." Miranda replied she gestured back to the hospital. a helicopter was already landing on the helipad. Spike stared back in shock. More questions added to the thousand currently waiting to be asked in his mind.

"Where are off to?" he asked her. "Why are you helping us?"

"I know you want answers." Miranda said in an understanding voice. "But I am not the one to give them to you. All will be revealed in the right time but for now, we must be gone."
