Are you happy now ?: yours
by no1slayer
I don’t own any of the characters in this they all belong to Joss Whedon. Don’t sue
This is my first fanfic so I know its not going to be as good as everyone else’s. But I’ll have a go anyway. Wish me luck and please review. Tell me how I can make it better in future and which bits you like about it. I’ve noticed a few spelling/grammatical errors, I blame my stupid spell check I can’t use it. I will try and make sure that everything is right
Historians note: This happens a few years after Buffy season 7. There was no end of angel and there was no apocalypse.
Chapter 22 – Yours
“No spike, its not what it looks like” Buffy said urgently.
“Bloody hell luv, it is what I think it is” spike said.
“No” Buffy said
Spike interrupted her, “how, who....” he said. He didn’t understand this. He hadn’t realised that she was seeing someone else.
“Is this why you’ve been avoiding me? You’ve been seeing someone else.” Spike asked.
“No there hasn’t been anyone else!” Buffy said, she was starting to panic.
“Come on Buffy, don’t lie to me. You must have seeing someone else. A baby just doesn’t appear one day! How could you do this, fucks sake you know how much I love you. No other guy could love you as much as me” spike looked at her; he couldn’t believe this was happening. The woman he loved was pregnant with another mans child.
When spike said there was no other man that could love her as much as him, it made her have butterflies in her stomach “Listen to me spike, there is no other guy. There never was another guy.” Buffy said.
“So wait a second pet, you saying this baby is….”Spike trailed off.
“Yours” Buffy finished his sentence.
Spike was confused. He knew this wasn’t possible. ‘How could this happen? It can’t, its impossible. Well it happened for angel, but that was different.’ He thought, so many different thoughts were going through his head he didn’t know whethere he could speak.
“I don’t understand this luv” he said to her finally.
Buffy leaned against the bathroom wall. “And you think I do? God spike this doesn’t make sense. But it’s true and there’s nothing I can do about it”
“So you’re not happy?” spike asked.
Buffy sighed. “I really don’t know” she said. “It feels like a weird dream.”
“If it means anything, I’m happy pet” spike said.
“You are?” Buffy asked. She was surprised that he was happy; she didn’t know how he would react.
“Well yeah! I never thought I could have kids. So this is kinda a once in a life time thing.” Spike said.
Buffy stood up straight. She felt bad; she didn’t even know whether she was going to keep the baby.
‘How will I cope with a kid?’ she thought to herself. ‘I’m a slayer, how am I meant to do my job and have a baby’. Buffy just couldn’t see how this was going to work. Her and spike weren’t together anymore, she didn’t want her baby split between two parents. She knew what that was like and she told herself, if she ever had children, she would never do that to them.
“Slayer, what’s the matter?” spike asked. He reached out and took her hand and held it in his own.
“I can’t see myself with a baby. I’m not sure if I can have one. I’m a slayer, I wont be able to cope. And I cant see you running round after a baby.” Buffy said. She walked out of the bathroom and went to the living room.
The living room was dark. There was a full moon that could be seen hanging over the many sky scrapers of LA. It looked picture perfect but Buffy paid no attention to its beauty.
It would be nice just to sit down and look at the view from her large windows.
Buffy sighed and stood in the middle of the living room.
“Pet, there are thousands of slayers now. Remember the spell that Red did. There isn’t just you now.” Spike said, as he followed her to the living room.
He put the little piece of plastic down on the table.
She turned around to face him. “I know but everyone is counting on me. Giles wants me to go to England soon and help out with the new watchers council; he called me a few days ago” Buffy told him.
Spike looked upset. “And you only just thought of telling me this now? That’s why you’ve been avoiding me”
“Spike this has nothing to do with you. This is my life and my decision whether I go any where. Its up to me, you can’t control every move I make. I don’t belong to you.”
Buffy looked down for a moment. She hadn’t really given it much thought whether she was going or not. She had put it to the back of her mind and was trying to forget about it for the moment. Then this came up and then she had more important things to think about.
“To be honest spike I hadn’t really thought about it. Giles just said….” Buffy started to explain before spike interrupted her.
“Screw Giles. I don’t really care what he has to say. Buffy, I care about you. I haven’t been with you five minutes and now you want to go off to the mother country.” Spike was shouting.
“Spike please just … be quiet. Don’t you think I’ve had enough today!” Buffy said. “Just go”, she put her head in her hands.
“No” spike said stubbornly.
“Yes” Buffy snapped, she pushed him on the shoulders gently. She really didn’t want to get into a fight right now.
Spike let out an un-needed breath of frustration and turned around to walk out the apartment. As he reached the door, he turned his head. “I’m not going to drop this slayer. Not while your carrying my baby.” He opened the front door and left.
