Emily woke up with a pain in her side she opened her eyes and noticed Cassie curled up beside her asleep she smiled and kissed the top of her head before getting her mum was walking in she smiled "well what happened" she asked Buffy chuckled "Emily you ran into peter he shot the gun and hit you in the rib" she explained Emily laughed "is that why my side is hurting then" Buffy laughed too and nodded.
Cassie woke up to hear Emily laughing she sat up "hey your ok" she asked Emily nodded and looked at her "yeah I am don't worry about me" Cassie shrugged "I can't help it" she replied then knelt in front of her "Emily there is something you should know and it could affect our friendship" Emily nodded then pretended to be shocked "oh no you're in love with my mother" Cassie laughed and shook her head "no I am not in love with your mother but I am in love with someone else" she said Emily nodded looking away "who is the lucky bloke" she asked Cassie smiled "there isn't a bloke" she whispered.
Emily sat confused "well then who is it, is it a teacher oh my god ewww!" she laughed Cassie hit her lightly on the arm "no it's not a teacher, you know then actually" she said Emily was thinking "who is it, how do I know them" she asked Cassie sighed "you are very close to them" she said Emily shrugged "I am not close to anyone" she said then paused "well except you" she shrugged, Cassie hit her head "god women!" she laughed.
Emily sat back and looked at her "what have I done" she asked Cassie only laughed "it's you" she paused to look at her Emily was frozen "I am totally and completely in love with you" Cassie whispered Emily didn't say anything Cassie got up and walked out, Emily shook herself and ran after Cassie before she could leave, she turned her around and pushed her against the closed door, Cassie looked at her she was breathing heavily.
Emily put her hands on Cassie's waist "did you mean it" she asked Cassie could only nod Emily smiled and kissed her head, then her nose "I love you too" she whispered before kissing her lightly on the lips.
The next day at school Emily and Cassie were sitting talking, Cassie saw Mia and her gang she stood and went over to them "hey Cassie" Mia said smiling Cassie pushed her back and snarled her "you come near Emily again and I will ruin you" she said before walking off and leaving them.
Emily sat under a tree reading as she waited for Cassie to come out from her lesson she smiled at the thought of her girlfriend, it amazed her that someone like Cassie would want a freak like her she put the freak thought to the back of her mind as she put her bookmarker in the book and put it in her bag.
Cassie watched Emily reading, she wanted to get her anger under control before she went over she took a deep breath before walking over and sitting next to her Emily smiled when Cassie sat down "hey" Cassie whispered in her ear Emily acted cool "hey" she replied back kissing her cheek lightly which made Cassie smile.
Buffy and Willow sat in the café drinking coffee "I can't believe Emily hasn't spoken to me yet" Buffy said holding her head in her hands, Willow took a hand and kissed it "look it's a shock she didn't know you were raped and I think she is still a bit angry that he just said it like that" Willow paused as Buffy nodded "and she will be angry you didn't just tell her she can handle it, she is a smart kid" Willow laughed Buffy smiled and looked up at her "yeah but it's just frustrating, I was going to sit her down and talk to her about it" Buffy replied Willow nodded and kissed her palm.
Buffy saw Cassie and Emily walk in the café laughing she didn't call them over just watched her, suddenly a girl was blocking her view "so it runs in the family then" the girl said Buffy looked up at her "excuse me" she asked the girl smirked "well your Emily's sister and you're a lesbian god it's disgusting" she said Buffy shot up glaring at her "what did you just say" she demanded the girl laughed "I said lesbians are disgusting" she said slowly Willow shot up holding Buffy back "you're lucky I didn't kick your ass" she spat the girl just ignored her.
Emily watched the commotion and Willow holding her mum back she looked at Cassie who nodded she then ran over to help "hey what do you think you're doing" she said the Mia, Mia turned and glared at her "well, well if it isn't the freak" she said smirking Emily only smiled "at least I'm not a cheap slut" she said people laughed Mia was angry she lunged for Emily Cassie gasped but Emily was too quick she moved to the side grabbing the back of Mia and holding her still so she couldn't reach her.
Buffy watched with a smile on her face, her little girl was back "listens Mia" Emily whispered "you say anything about my sister and her girlfriend and I will make sure your pretty surgery is messed up got it" she said in a low voice that only Buffy could hear Mia nodded franticly Emily let her go and she ran out.
Emily looked at Buffy then walked out not saying a word to her, Buffy sighed and went to run after her but Cassie stopped her "I will go and get her home so you two can talk" she said Buffy nodded and smiled as Cassie ran after Emily.
Cassie found Emily in the park sitting watching the kids playing, she was sobbing, and Cassie sat next to her and brought her into a hug, and kissed her head as Emily sobbed into her chest.
Once the crying stopped Cassie looked at Emily "you need to talk to her" she whispered Emily nodded "by the way how can she be your mum" Cassie asked Emily sighed "ok I guess I didn't explain it properly did I" Emily said Cassie shook her head "right well my mum is a slayer she fights evil, like demons and Vampires" Cassie nodded "and well when I was born, it was a normal 9 month pregnancy, but when I was born I grew quicker than any baby, in a few months I turned 4 when I should have still been a baby" Emily paused making sure Cassie got this Cassie nodded for her to continue.
"And well I was seventeen I haven't grown much since but in reality I should only be seven really" she finished Cassie nodded "so Buffy was never your sister she was your mum" Cassie said Emily nodded "wow it's a lot to take in" she laughed Emily smiled "do you want me to" she was cut off by Cassie kissing her hard she pulled back "no I feel safe when your around" Cassie whispered Emily smiled and hugged her "I will always be there to protect you" she whispered.
Buffy and Willow sat watching TV, there was a knock at the door, Buffy got up to answer it, when she did she was shocked, the old gang was stood there smiling "hey Buff" Xander said Willow came behind her she growled when she saw Kennedy with Dawn "what are you guys doing here" she asked "well we came to see our favorite slayer" Xander said, she let them in still in a daze.
Emily sighed Cassie shivered Emily pulled her jacket off and wrapped it round her Cassie smelt the Jacket and smiled "your smell so good" she whispered Emily laughed "come on we have to head back" Emily said pulling Cassie up and walking back hand in hand.
Buffy looked at the gang "so why are you here" she asked Giles cleaned his glasses "well there is a prophecy" Buffy rolled her eyes "I told you I've quit" she replied Giles nodded "yes this isn't about you, it's about a child you will have" Buffy looked at Willow 'Emily' she thought 'yeah' Willow replied.
"What's the prophecy" Willow asked, the front door then opened "Will, mum!" it was Emily "hey who's car is oh hi" Emily said as she saw the big group of people Xander's eyes widened and he was nearly drooling Cassie saw this and wrapped an arm around Emily "hey Emily well erm" Buffy started Willow stood "hey sweetie these are, mine and Buffy's friends from when we lived in Sunnydale" she told her Emily nodded "well I have to patrol I will be back later" she said running upstairs leaving Cassie smiling at the people she didn't know.
Emily came back downstairs with her bag and she changed her clothes "I won't be back till late" she told Cassie who nodded "can't I come" she asked Emily shook her head "no I want you safe and out of this horrible thing, don't worry I won't die" she smiled and kissed Cassie on the nose before leaving without saying anything to her mum.
Buffy sighed "I am going with her Willow can you" Willow nodded "no you are not we have to" Giles was cut off "no you listen you are not the boss of me now Giles I don't like my daughter going and doing what I used to do on her own besides there is some stuff we need to sort out" and with that she left.
Emily was walking she knew she should have spoken to her mum but she looked busy 'now with Willow and her old family back she won't need me, maybe she hates me' she thought to herself then shook her head 'yeah that's it she was raped and I was the outcome, and look I'm not even a normal child' she thought bitterly kicking a stone as she walked.
Buffy saw Emily in the distance walking slowly she soon caught up "Emily we need to talk" she said panting Emily didn't stop "no go back to your perfect family, you don't need me I was just some huge mistake" Emily replied Buffy shook her head "no you're not who told you that" she asked Emily stopped but didn't turn around "nobody but it's what I think" she replied Buffy touched her shoulder but Emily moved it off her "no you go back don't worry about me you just go and be a big happy family I will get my things and be out of your hair" Emily sighed running off.
Buffy wasn't going to give up so she chased after Emily, until she found her sitting on a park bench doing nothing but watching the leaves blow in the wind, Buffy sat next to her there was silence for about a minute "you were never a mistake" Buffy started Emily shook her head "ok so the way you were conceived was not a good way but I still love you all the same" Buffy explained
Emily didn't move for a minute then she looked at her mum "you still want me" she whispered Buffy smiled "I never said I didn't" Buffy replied Emily shrugged "I guess I thought now you have Willow and your old friends you wouldn't need me anymore" Emily sobbed Buffy brought her into a hug letting her cry into her chest, she kissed her head "I will always love you" she whispered Emily pulled back.
Emily then smiled "fancy doing patrol with me?" She asked Buffy smiled and nodded they both set off to patrol.
