Summary: Angel tries to explain to Buffy his feelings for Cordelia.

"WHAT" Buffy exploded. "Excuse me, did you just say that" she couldn't believe that this was happening.

"I think I'm in love with Cordelia" Angel repeated quietly.

She couldn't process this. It just couldn't be true; her Angel had fallen in love with Cordelia Chase. True they had broken up four years ago, but that was a minor detail.

"This can't be happening, I mean Cordy?" Buffy said still a bit stunned. "But she's spoiled and mean!"

"She's changed," Angel replied.

"What do you mean she's changed?"

"The visions have changed her."

"What visions, I thought Doyle was the vision man."

Angel was silent for a moment. Finally he spoke, "It's complicated."

"But Cordy?" Buffy snarked.

"Yes, Cordelia," Angel stated confidently. "I think I realized something, I realized I love her."

"What?"

"So, you and Buffy huh?" Cordelia asked rhetorically.

"Well niblet, love is a complicated thing," Spike replied. "Goldilocks and me… We have an understanding."

"Which is…?" Cordelia replied blankly.

"Well, I don't exactly know, but it's a good one."

"I see," Cordelia said slowly.

"Next topic, what was the problem you wanted to talk about?" asked Spike.

"You see, um" she paused. "I kinda like Angel."

"You've gotta be bloody well kidding," Spike howled. "His hair grows straight up and he's bloody stupid."

Cordelia rolled her eyes, "Like your one to talk peroxide boy,"

Spike swept his hand through his hair," It's very popular in the Middle East. Back on topic bugger all you like the old sire eh?"

"Well maybe," Cordelia sighed.

"I see," Spike stopped. "So what's the problem?"

"It's complicated."

"Bugger, why is it complicated?" Spike asked heatedly.

"It just is," Cordelia huffed.

"Bloody females, never did understand 'em," Spike muttered.

"You see, I think I love him."

"What?"
