I need you
Author's Note –I wrote a while back, it was one of the first Fanfictions I wrote but it was in some random file and I only found it an hour or so ago. I only wrote half of it and I came across it before and started finishing it, I really enjoyed improving it.
I really don't like Riley because I think there would have been a lot my B/A fluff in the Yoko Factor without him being there.
I know I really need to update my other stories and I promise, more chapters will be up by the end of the week. Sorry about the delay xx
Enjoy this Chapter and please, leave a review xxx
Summary – Shortly after Angel left in the Yoko Factor, Riley rapes Buffy. Unable to cope she goes to the only person she feel's safe with… Angel.
It had been 2 weeks since Angel had last visited and so much had happened.
She thought back to earlier that night, as she had partied with Willow and Xander at the Bronze. She had been so stressed with Riley acting so differently and the pain of seeing Angel again that she hadn't controlled how much alcohol she had been drinking so she was pleasantly drunk. It made her feel happy but she knew it wouldn't last. Her happiness never lasted; someone or something always took it away.
Opening the door, she walked into the room slowly.
"Buffy, where have you been, do you know how late it is?"
"Riley, I am a grown woman, I can stay out till whatever time I want and for your information, I was at the Bronze with Xander and Willow"
"Why didn't you call? Look at you, you're drunk, you can barely walk, why did you drink so much?"
"Because I'm not happy, that's why Riley!"
Tears had been streaming down her face as she had spoken,
"Why shouldn't you be happy? I try my best for you and all you do is complain! I hear you in your sleep, saying his name. Am I not good enough for you?"
His face was so close to hers as in his anger, he had backed her up to the wall.
"Ever since Angel was here, you have been different. You aren't the person I know, the person I care for"
Riley's face showed his anger as he clenched his hands into fists.
"The person you care for. But oh of course, you can never love me, you love him. It doesn't matter that I love you because you want him, a stupid vampire, why do you want him? He is not even a man, human!"
Shoving him in the chest as she attempted to get away from him, her drunken state making her weak, the room was spinning.
"Angel is more of a man than you will ever be! He is good and kind and I love him so don't you dare say anything about him"
Shoving her against the wall again, he pressed his lips roughly to hers, ignoring the way she fought to get away from him.
"You are my girlfriend. If he loved you, why would he leave you?"
Slapping her across the face, he snarled slightly before shoving her to the floor.
In that 15 minutes Riley committed the worst act he would ever do. He raped Buffy Summers, pulled up his pants and left her sobbing on the floor. Blood leaking from between her legs, her thighs bruised and her lips bleeding and swollen and nursing a broken heart as the man she had placed her trust and safety in had betrayed her so badly.
Buffy lay on her bed, tears streaming down her cheeks. Her head was hurting and she felt like she was going to be sick as the affects of the alcohol she had consumed earlier that night left her system. She could feel a mega hangover coming and groaned.
She curled up onto her side and held herself, trying to make the pain in her lower half go away.
Riley had been so kind and loving at first, but Angel's visit had unsettled him. He had known about Angel but it had made him become possessive and angry at the thought of Buffy thinking about her former love. The Riley she knew was gone, in his place a angry, possessive monster of a man who had turned on her mere hours ago.
She had told him it wasn't working, that he was not the person she had known and he in his anger and hurt, he had violated her, in the worst way possible. Buffy had not made love to anyone since her night with Angel, the night which would be the best and worst of her life.
Buffy had not been ready to commit to someone else so fully.
Riley had raped her, forced himself inside of her were only one man had ever gone before, the man, a vampire that she loved more than anything. She had always just wanted Angel to make love to her and now Riley had stolen her wish away. She would never forgive him for this, ever.
Pressing her face into her pillow more deeply, she thought back on the good times with Angel before he had left her, for what he believed would give her a better life.
The kiss in the Bronze, the first kiss they ever shared. His lips had been so soft, so caring; it was a kiss of love.
The look of care and relief in his eyes when Xander had brought her back to life after the Master had drowned her.
Angels' strong arms around her, moments after she had shattered the Master's skeleton into pieces, she had sobbed and he had been there for her as she had momentarily lost control of her emotions.
The look on his face, of pain and betrayal as the stood in the cellar of the Frat House moments after she had killed the snake demon with the sword. Buffy had betrayed him, she had nearly got herself killed because he had told her the truth, that they could never be together.
His lips against hers as he comforted her after her dream of Drusilla killing him. She had never felt more complete than when she was in his arms.
Pushing the memories away, tears once again began falling down her face as she came the realisation that she would never kiss Angel again.
That night when Riley had raped her, she felt a small piece of her die inside and it hurt so much but it was nothing compared to how she was feeling now. The pain was worse as her silent tears became sobs. Pulling herself to the edge of the bed, she attempted to stand but cried out as the pain in her lower half made it impossible.
Pulling her phone towards her, she hit speed dial 2 and waited as the phone rang.
"Hello, Angel speaking"
"Angel" the word coming out as a sob as she fought to keep her emotions in check.
"Buffy? What wrong? Are you alright? Are you hurt?"
It felt so good to hear his voice, to know that he cared about her well being, to know that he loved her and to hear his voice was so soothing, the constant fear that Riley would return faded as she knew that now she would be safe. Angel wouldn't let anything happen to her.
"Buffy, what has happened?"
"It was Riley, he hurt me"
The pain in her voice didn't seem to go unnoticed and she could feel his anger, even though she couldn't see him.
"What did the boy do?"
He sounded lived but scared aswell; nothing scared him more than the thought of her in pain or worse as he had told her before.
"He raped me, I tried to stop him but he was too strong"
She was fiercely sobbing now; she could barely hear herself think as she attempted to get her emotions in check and failing miserably.
"Buffy, I need you to listen to me ok? I'm coming to Sunnydale, I need you to go someplace safe and I swear I am gonna kill him"
"Ok, I'll try and get to the mansion; it's abandoned, so it should be safe. I'll see you there soon"
"Why to the mansion? What about Willow's house? You'll be safer with someone there to help you"
"No! When I'm at the mansion, it makes me feel closer to you and that's all I want now"
"Ok, Buffy, I'm on my way, I'll be about 2 hours"
"Goodbye Angel, I love you so much, thank you for coming"
Buffy heard Angel breathe in deeply on the other end.
"I love you too, Buffy, more than you can imagine and I promise, I'll make him pay for this. I will always be here for you"
The line went dead as he hung up and a ghost of a smile appeared on Buffy's face which immidetly vanished as the pain in her lower half increased painfully as she stood and slowly hobbled to the wardrobe and pulled on a thin black, cotton dress. She looked at the torn dress she had worn earlier and signed as she saw the way it had been torn and bloodied.
Nothing matted anymore as Buffy hobbled to the door.
Angel loved her and she was going to see him soon.
That was probably the thing that kept her walking towards the mansion, which after 30 excruciatingly painful minutes, she entered and pulled off the white sheet covering the king-size bed and fell onto the red covers, falling almost immediately into nightmare ridden sleep, the last coherent thought on her mind. That her amazing Vampire was coming to protect her once again.
