Chapter 34: Taken care off


Buffy woke up and made a dash for the toilet. For the last few weeks her morning sickness had kicked in big time and she was experiencing the full effects of it right this very moment.

As she was slumped over the toilet, someone pulled back her hair from her face. She saw a glass of water out of the corner of her eye.

“Thanks,” she said, taking it and she sat it down on the counter.

“No worries luv. It’s what I’m here for,” Spike said, stroking her back.

Things were going a lot better between them. He had had several more sessions with Tara, and had waited on Buffy hand and foot every day for the last few weeks. He would go out in the middle of the night to buy chocolate chip ice cream for her. And he’d joined her at her first doctor’s appointment. The evidence of their creation was now pinned to Buffy’s refrigerator.

“I suppose the little bit is letting us know it’s still there. It’s a comforting thing to know,” he said and brushed a kiss to her cheek.

“Yeah, very comforting if you’re not on the receiving end of it, hunched over a toilet seat,” she growled, standing up.

“Now, don’t be like that. I’m sure the little bit’s not doing it on purpose.”

Buffy grumbled something under her breath before splashing some cold water over her face. She turned around and saw Spike looking at her with adoration in his eyes. She looked at him questioningly.

“Do you have any idea how adorable you are, and how gorgeous you look?” he asked.

She looked at him as if he’d lost his mind. She just got out of bed, her hair was tangled all over the place and she wearing her fluffy pyjamas, her now slightly rounded belly sticking out in front of her and to top it all off, she had just finished puking.

“I just got out of bed and look like I’m carrying a small watermelon in my stomach. Where do I get off looking gorgeous?”

Spike grinned at her and stepped forward to take her in his arms and she let him.

“You’re pregnant with my child. You are the most beautiful woman in the world. Even when you just get out of bed you know how to light up the room with your presence. You’re one hell of a woman, Buffy.”

She couldn’t hold in the tears that wanted to slip from her eyes. Her emotions running high these days, she held on to him tightly and let the tears soak his shirt. It was the sweetest thing anyone had ever said to her.

Spike pulled back from her. “Hey now, I didn’t mean to make you cry.”

She sniffed and smiled up at him. “It’s ok. It happens really easily these days. What you said was just so beautiful.”

Spike beamed up at her and she couldn’t help but giggle at the boyish expression on his face.

“Could I get some juice to drink now? The taste in my mouth is still all gross, and I’d like to get rid of it.”

“Course luv, let’s get you taken care off.”

She let him take her hand and guide her to the kitchen where she sat down on one of the kitchen chairs. A moment later she took the glass of orange juice that he offered to her.

“Thanks.” She took a sip and watched Spike rummaging through her kitchen. He’d been staying over a lot lately, taking care of her, and doing his best to show her he wanted this to work. She was grateful for his help and told him so many times.

Besides a few kisses and caresses nothing had happened between them. Buffy at first had been hesitant, but she was now craving his touch. Though it seemed Spike was very intent of showing her he loved her without any physical demonstrations. It worried her a little bit.

She slowly got up from her seat and walked up to where Spike was cleaning the kitchen counter. She placed her hand on his back and moved herself in between his body and the counter. She rested her chin on his chest and looked at him. She felt him wrap his arms around her and stood there gazing back at her.

“Hello there, cutie. There’s nothing wrong, is there?”

She could hear the concern in his voice and smiled slowly at him. “Everything’s been fine, great even,” she smiled at him. “You’ve been absolutely wonderful.”

“Well, I try.”

“Don’t you think you deserve something for being so good to me?” she asked with a naughty glint in her eye.

“Your acceptance of letting me be here is enough for me,” he answered her, and she couldn’t help but frown. It was clear she had to be more forceful in this. She of all people, who started off as the shy virgin that had to be seduced, was now taking control over the situation and trying to seduce the man she loved to get intimate with her.

“I think you deserve a lot more than that,” she whispered as she pulled his face down for a soft kiss, tongues played gently with each other. She felt him pull back slightly and tried to soothe him by running her hand up and down his back in a tender manner. It wouldn’t last long though, as Spike pulled back eventually resting his forehead against hers.

“Buffy, we shouldn’t.”

“Shh, who says we shouldn’t? You’ve been here with me for the last week, taking care of me, but never trying anything. You say I’m beautiful, but won’t dare to touch me intimately.”

“I just… I don’t deserve it yet. And I’m worried it won’t be good for the baby,” he answered her softly.

“Spike, look at me.” He did so and she looked steadily back at him.

“Don’t think you don’t deserve it. I think that’s mainly up to me to decide. And I’m telling you, you deserved it. Both of us made mistakes. You’re not the only one. This is something for us both. You’ve shown the good man I know you are. I trust you and I hope you trust me.”

She looked at him as she said the words. The expression on his face was blank at first, and then she saw a look of disbelief cross his face as her words came through to him.

“I trust you,” she said again with a more forceful voice.

She didn’t wait for his reaction again, just pulled his head down for a passionate kiss. She felt him respond within seconds, all the pent up emotion and sexual tension running wild. His hands ran over her body and she shivered under his touch. Her own hands weren’t idle and ran over the planes of his chest, pulling the shirt out of his jeans.

“Buffy, luv, wait,” she heard him pant through her daze. “Are you sure this is ok? I mean for the baby?”

She smiled at his concern. “It’s more than ok. I think your two babies need some very careful and intimate attention,” she huskily answered. She squealed when he growled, grabbed her buttocks and lifted her up on the counter to stand between her legs, all the while never breaking their kiss.

She moaned as he gently cupped her now very full breasts. “Spike…”

She saw him look up at her concerned.

“Take me to bed please.”

He smiled at her, running his tongue behind his teeth, making a wave of wetness pool out of her. She was easily lifted off the kitchen counter and then he carried her to her room.


So thats chapter 34. I hope you enjoyed it. It's a bit softer again. Spike and Buffy are dealing and continuing their relationship. I think only a few more chapters and its the end of it! What do you guys think?



and yes, i am writing a new story, so this isn't the end of my writing days!
