ANGEL POV

Angel stared out the window, it was raining Conner was, well being Conner complaining about the rain because; he couldn't play football with his mates. Cordelia always says that he's a mini me, I'm starting to think she's right.

I suddenly heard a knock on the door.

"May I come in Sir Angel" Cordelia said playfully

Cordelia has started calling me stuff like King Angel, and brave knight and stuff like that I don't know why. I have been moody recently, and I think it's her idea to make me feel better; it was working for awhile then started getting old.

"Yes you may... um Cordelia"

I said lost for words

"You have been locked in this room for ages what the hell are you doing this is so amusing?"

"Nothing special just enjoying the view"

"What view it's raining"

"I uh nothing"

I walked side by side with Cordelia, down stairs Gunn and Wesley were being themselves, playing a game of rock paper scissors.

"Who's winning?"

I said amused

"My money is on Wesley, have you seen how good he is recently"

Cordelia whispered in my ear

"Nah Gunn"

I whispered back.

"Wanna bet, how does ten dollar's sound?"

"You're on"

I had a big smile on my face because I was pretty sure Gunn was going to win.

"So who's winning?"

Cordelia said walking over to them

"It's a tie... B..ut, if..I just win this"

Wesley managed to say before he was beaten by Gunn.

"Yes man! I totally creamed you!"

"No you didn't! I demand a rematch!"

"I think someone owes me 10 dollars"

Angel said to Cordelia, very proud of himself for picking Gunn.

"Um, who... cause I know it's not me!"

She said back sarcastically! As she handed me my ten dollars.

"Hey! You were betting on our match, that's not aloud, that's not fair! Tell them Wes that's not aloud!"

"I will have to agree with Gunn on this one"

"Yeah I could have lost! So who choose me!"

(Wesley gives Gunn a "what! Look")

"That would be Angel"

Cordelia said as she walked over the coffee machine, and poured herself a steaming cup of Angel Investigations finest coffee.

Gunn walked over to Angel "Yeah man!" he said as him and Angel did their handshake.

And as predicted Cordelia said "Oh please you are so childish"

"Dad can I talk to you"

Angel turned around and saw his seventeen year old son Conner standing in front of him a football under his arm.

"Conner you can't change my mind you're not allowed to play football it's raining, and if you think I'm going to play football with you then you don't know me at all"

"Dad I want to talk to you in private, it's not about football"

"Um ok"

Said angel as he got to his feet and he and Conner walked off into his room.

"So what is this all about?"

Angel said as he slowly closed the door and sat on his bed.

Conner went over and sat with him.

"I want to know more about my mom"

Darla lay lying on the floor in a dark alley - the alley that she died in.

Darla's eyes flickered open. Her body lying lifeless. Her hair wet and messy.

She didn't know where she was at first, or who she was, but things started coming back to her...

She said only one word, in a whisper.

"Angel".

Authors note

So what do you think of my first chapter? It's my first story, and I know it's crappy.

I wrote it about Darla and Angel, because I love them as a couple. This story will be mainly based around Darla, who is my favourite, I really hope you enjoyed it, comment.
