(A/N: oooohkay. i suck at titles. but please try to enjoy. Read and review. and uhmm... some parts may sound like other stories, so i thank authors or it's probably some scenes in other movies or books or whatever. just tell me though. oh.. and not just parts but character too. i dont know, my mind is a bit off right now. ^_^')
disclaimer: i do not own Dark Shadows. and i'm not sure which characters are really mine or from other authors. i'll just tell you guys later on.
It felt like hell for Angelique, all the screaming, the pain, the crying. Yet it was all a blur. Next thing she knew, she was in a bed, tired and weak, a baby lay sleeping next to her.
"So what should you name her?" Jane, her best friend, asked Angelique.
"Angeline." Angelique said with a smile on her face, "Angeline Beatrix Bouchard. What do you think Jane?"
"I think you need to keep him away from Barnabas," Jane said worriedly, "Things will get very ugly once the Collins Family find out about your daughter, Angelique. Especially when it so happens that her father is Barnabas. But yes, I love the name you gave her."
"Don't worry, Jane." Angelique told her, "I have absolutely no plans of letting Angeline know anything about her father, or her grandparents. But there is one condition to that, and I do hate it. But you have to do it, Jane."
Angelique stared pleadingly and sadly at her best friend, she didn't want to do it, yet it had to be done. Jane held Angeline in her arms.
"I don't know if I can, Angelique," Jane sighed, "Honestly, if I took care of this little kid, then I could and I WILL make her immortal. You know what I'm capable of doing. And you know I can't control myself from doing those things."
"But you HAVE to." Angelique said, "partly I don't mind making her immortal, the more I can spend time with since I too am immortal myself, but I'll make sure, I'll visit you every week… everyday if I have to, that you won't kill Angeline."
Angelique was begging, Jane knew it, it was obvious. Yet Jane couldn't take away the very child of her best friend, the best friend she had that was almost her sister.
"Fine," Jane said, "But I'll have to change her name, 'Angel' would probably fit, I cant risk her knowing who she is, don't worry, Angelique, I'll do my best to take care of your little daughter."
And that's it for now i guess. ^_^' i'll update. :) oh... and it's italicized cause it's a flashback, i dont know where to insert it in the story.. but if i put it at the top, my friend says it'll sound somewhat stupid. i dont know what she meant by that. if you guys have some awesome photoshop powers and have a pic of Barnabas and Angelique and how you think Angel will look like(i'll PM you if you guys want), please send me. :) and if you have suggestions please tell me. :)
