Title: Remember me?
Summary: This is not an "I Will Remember You" fic. Someone loses their memory, and the one who loves them most is having a hard time dealing.
Pairings: B/A of course. Hmm, well now that just gave it all away. I was going for the "oooh" suspenseful thing. Well now you know it's either Buffy or Angel who will lose their memory! But I'm not going to tell you who! (Because secretly, I don't even know. Shh! Don't tell anyone!)
Rating: Shouldn't go over PG-13. But who knows? This chapter is G rated though.
Feedback: Yes please!
Distribution: Just tell me where it's going so I can show off to my friends.
Disclaimer: Characters and previous story lines are property of Joss and co. This fic is just wishful thinking.

"Are you sure, Cordy?" Angel asked for the millionth time. "Absolutely positive?"
"Ugh," Cordelia sighed in frustration. "Of course I'm sure!"
Angel turned away and started to pace the room again. Fred looked on, worried about the state Angel was in, and the marks that would soon appear on the floor of the lobby if Angel kept pacing around like this.
"Umm," Fred started quietly. Cordelia looked over to Fred to show she was listening, while Angel kept pacing around the lobby. "Shouldn't we go and save this person in your vision before it's too late?"
Cordelia sighed again, and turned to Angel. "Fred's right, Angel."
Angel stopped, and looked up at his friends. "Hmm?"
"This person in Cordy's vision won't save themselves," Gunn told him. "And we better leave now if we wanna make it on time, because we might be too late."
Angel started pacing again. He stopped after a while and asked quietly, "I told her not to come to my city and fight my fights, what makes it any different if I go to her city and fight hers?"
"Umm, let's see," Cordelia rolled her eyes. "How about my vision?!"
"Yeah, Cordelia gets her visions for a reason Angel," Fred told him. "So we can help."
"How about we just give her a call then," Angel ignored Fred's words and walked over to the phone and dialled her number, while his friends sighed frustratingly yet again. After another minute, he put the receiver back on the hook, and looked up worriedly at his friends. "No answer," He quietly informed them.
"Well duh, Angel," Cordelia told him. "It's three in the morning."
"Oh," Angel turned back to the phone. "Hmm, how about I try again then?" He dialled her number again, and finally someone picked up on the other side.
"Mmm?" Someone said groggily. "I mean, hello?"
"Uhh," Angel was surprised to see that someone picked up. "Sorry to wake you up," He apologised.
"No problem," They said, more awake now. Angel could tell it was Dawn by her voice. "I'm awake now."
"Umm, is Buffy awake?" Angel asked, at first unsure of what to say.
"Oh my God... Angel?" Dawn was surprised to hear from him.
"Yeah, it's me Dawnie," Angel smiled at the thought that she recognised him.
"Wow," Dawn said. She was just so surprised, she had no idea what to say.
"Is Buffy there?" He asked again.
"Oh yeah," She remembered that he asked her that before. "I mean, no, she's not here yet."
"Out patrolling?"
"Yeah, there are some weird ugly demons attacking people and stuff."
"So, the usual?"
"Was that a joke, Angel?" Dawn chuckled. "You never stop with the surprises."
"I'm a funny guy," Angel told her, although it brought up painful memories of him and Buffy. But that relationship was over. He ended it when he left three years ago. It wasn't fair to her to think that something could happen between the two of them.
"So, what's up Angel? Why are you looking for Buffy at three in the morning?"
"Cordy had a vision," Angel explained, in a very, very short sentence. "So Buffy's busy?"
"Probably," Dawn replied. "I can't really say."
"Hmm," Angel furrowed his brow (not in the vampire "grr" way) and thought for a while, deciding what to do. He looked back at his friends and Cordy pointed to her watch, reminding him they might not have much time.
"I'm going over there with my friends," He told Dawn.
"What? You're coming here?"
"Yeah, Cordy had a vision, and it must mean that we're the only ones that can help this person," He explained. "Buffy's probably busy."
"Oh... okay," Dawn said, still surprised. "A-Are you going to stay long?"
"Until our help is no longer needed there," He replied. "See you soon, Dawnie. Be careful."
"Uhh, you too Angel. Bye." She hung up, and Angel did the same.
"So when do we leave?" Gunn asked Angel when he was finished talking.
"Pretty much now."

I know, I know. Pretty lame. I'm sorry! Really! But it's just the intro. Hmm, I'll try and do some better writing in the next chapters. But how did you guys find this one? Is it worth going on, or should I quit while I still have my dignity? Please review! Even if you didn't really like it, tell me what I could change or whatever. Or tell me what you liked, and would like to see in future chapters. Big thanks to all who read this, and an even BIGGER thanks to all those who are going to review. Also, any suggestions on where this should go, what I should fix up?
