Sixteen Months Later
“Giles are you here?” Buffy asked as she walked into her London flat.
“We’re in the kitchen Buffy.” Giles called out.
Buffy tossed her keys down on a small table be the down then walked into the kitchen and placed the few bags she was carrying down on a counter top away from the stove Giles was standing at.
“I’m not to late am I?” Buffy asked pulling things out of the grocery bags.
“Not at all, your timing is prefect.” Giles answered.
“Good. Here you go.” Buffy said handing him a bottle of red wine.
“Thank you.”
“I see you had yourself a little helper.” Buffy said looking down at the sleeping child in the basinet that rested on the small table in the corner of the kitchen.
“For a bit ye was was about to put him to bed when you came in.” Giles explained looking over his shoulder.
“He looks more and more like his father everyday.” Buffy said bending down to pick up the child.
“You miss him.”
Buffy nodded her head. “Very much. At least I have a piece of him with me to help with the pain.”
“I’ll have some information in a few days.” Giles told her as he moved things around on the stove.
“It’s been over a year already, what if nothings changed?” Buffy asked.
“Then we’ll find a new way.” Giles said moving away from the stove. “Go put the boy down while I finish dinner.” He added as he began to pull plates out of the cabinet.
“I’ll be back in a couple of minutes.”

Buffy moved through her home as quietly as she could not wanting to wake her sleeping son. Slowly she pushed open the nursery door and carefully walked over to the crib in the middle of the room and placed him down. She made sure nothing was around his face before giving him a soft kiss on the forehead. After a few more moments of watching him sleep she walked over to one of the dressers and turned on both of the baby monitors, picking one up to take with her. After making sure everything was okay in the room one last time she moved back towards the door.
“Sweet dreams William.” She whispered before shutting the door and walking back to the kitchen.

As Buffy walked into the kitchen Giles was placing plates on the small table.
“Will you grab the glasses?” Giles asked moving back to the stove.
“Sure.” Buffy said moving over to the cabinet that held the cups and glasses.
Giles moved the food off the stove and over to the table as she filled the glasses with sparkling water.
“Dinners ready.” Giles said holding out a chair for her to sit in.
“Thank you.” She said taking the offered seat. “Everything looks wonderful.”
“It’s just pasta with a red wine chicken tomato sauce and some fresh baked bread from the market across the street from where I live.” Giles explained taking a seat across from her.
“It still looks wonderful, and smells great.” Buffy said before taking a bite of the pasta.
“Thank you.” Giles said before taking a sip of his water. “Does everything taste alright?”
Buffy looked up at Giles and smiled. “It’s prefect, just like everything else you’ve ever cooked for me. Don’t worry so much.”
As the two continued to eat fussing noises fill the kitchen from the small babnitonitor on the counter right behind Buffy’s head.
“I better go check on him.” Buffy said placing her fork down and standing up.
Giles reached out a hand and placed it on one of Buffy’s arms. “Stay, I’ll go check on him.”
“You took care of him for me all day, it’s time for you to relax. I’ll be right back.” Buffy said before walking out of the kitchen.

Buffy opened the nursery door and walked over to the crib. “Hey little guy.” She said bending over and picking up her son. “You’re supposed to be asleep young man.”
Baby William looked up at his mother with big bright blue eyes.
“Don’t look at me that way Mister, you’re too young to be able to give me that look.” Buffy said walking over to a rocking chair that sat in a corner of the room by a large bay window and taking a seat.
“Your Daddy would love the fact that you can give me the same look he use to give me when he wanted something and know I’d give in. You’re gonna be a handful as a teen aren’t you?” Buffy asked with a smile.
Baby William laughed up at his mother.
Buffy’s smile grew even more. “Yep, great big handful. The girls won’t know what hit ‘em. I know I didn’t the first time I met your Daddy. He would be so happy if he knew about you. You’re something he couldn’t wait to have. You’re also the whole reason we’re here.” Buffy paused for a moment to look out the window at the rain that had started to fall.
“We’ll find a way.” Giles said from the doorway holding the baby monitor in his hand.
“He’ll be one soon.” Buffy said looking down at the once again sleeping child resting in her arms. “Spike shouldn’t miss his first birthday, he’s already miss so much time of his son’s life that I can’t give back.
“We’ll find a way.” Giles whispered again before leaving mother and son alone for the night.
“What if it’s too late?” Buffy asked aloud.
