~Flashback to June 17, 2000~
“That was a great movie. I’m glad we did this.” Buffy said holding Spike’s hand as they walked with Cordelia, who was eight months pregnant, and Angel in back of them.
“It was.” Cordelia said moving up so she was walking beside Buffy and Spike moved back so he was standing next to Angel.
“So ya gonna pop the question to her tonight?” Angel asked smiling at his best friend.
“I think so. Do you think she’ll say yes?” Spike asked nervously as he played with something in his black jean jacket pocket.
“I know she will. From being with Cordelia all this time I know the look a woman gets when they love a man and Buffy has definitely got it.” Angel said trying to calm his friend down.
“Thanks.” Spike said and then continued to walk in silence.
“You guys want a ride?” Cordelia asked as Angel opened the door for her and she got in the car.
“No I think we’ll walk.” Spike said and then looked at Angel who mouthed “Do it.” to him and smiled.
“Why did Angel mouth ‘do it’ to you as he got in the car?” Buffy asked as Spike walked her home.
“It was nothing, luv.” Spike said, he was still playing with the thing in his pocket.
“You ok, Spike, you’ve been awfully quiet tonight and now you’re looking a little pale, you’re not coming down with anything are you?” Buffy asked concerned as she stopped Spike from walking so she could talk and look at him.
“I’m fine, but thanks for being concerned, luv. Now how ‘bout you and I go to the park for a little while and we could lay down on the ground and look at the stars.” Spike said hopefully.
“That sounds wonderful.” Buffy said and they started in the direction of the park. Spike had really come up with idea out of the blue, but as he thought about it more and more he liked it. He decided that a couple minutes after they lay there he would ask her.
“That looks like a wonderful spot over there, Spike.” Buffy said as she pulled him both out of his thoughts and over to a big clearing for them to lie in. Thankfully it was a warm night and the ground wasn’t cold because neither of them had blankets to lie on.
“Buffy, can I ask you a question?” Spike asked Buffy a few minutes after they had lain down.
“Sure, Spike, anything.” Buffy said looking up into his face. Spike pulled the thing he had been playing with all-night and sat up.
“Buffy Anne Summers, will you marry me?” Spike asked smiling as he held an opened ring box out to Buffy.
“Nice ring you got there, man.” A deep voice said before Buffy had a chance to answer.
“Thank you sir but if you don’t mind I was in the middle of a proposal so please leave.” Spike said gruffly to a talk bulky man who seemed to have two of his friends with him.
“We’ll leave after you hand over that ring.” The man said taking a step closer toward Spike.
“Think you might want to leave now.” Spike said standing up as he gave the man and his friends a very dangerous glare.
“Oh and what are you going to do little man. You don’t look like you could even take on your girlfriend.” The man said with an evil grin on his face. Spike suddenly made a charge toward the man, but stopped short when he heard a gun fire and the sound of Buffy screaming. As he looked back towards Buffy he saw her doubled over and clutching at her stomach and he ran to her and brought her into his arms. Buffy died almost instantly in Spike’s arms.
“What. Did. You. Do.” Spike asked angrily as he looked up at the man with tears in his eyes.
“Oh, well, it’s the boy’s and my policy to shoot whoever is with the person who tends to attack either one of us and it turned out it was you girlfriend so sorry, Bucko, well actually, I’m not sorry.” The man said laughing evilly.
“I’m gonna kill you.” Spike said menacingly as he got up to charge the guy again but before he could make it there the man pulled out his gun and shot Spike in the head. It wasn’t enough to kill him but enough to put him in a coma for a while.
A/N: I know it was a little upsetting and I'm sorry if it trully upset someone but it'll fit with upcoming chapters.
