Angel was jerked awake from the sound of his front door being opened and slammed shut. The brunette jumped out of his bed and ran out to the front room not bothering to put a shirt or pants on. The only person had a key to his place was his Willow and when she came over she always was as quiet as a mouse so Angel knew something had to be wrong.
Angel ran right into the redhead he was thinking about. He caught her before she hit the ground.
"Oh Angel, it is horrible! You have to help me!" Willow cried pulling on his arm.
"Willow, what is it?" Angel asked not budging.
"It is so terrible!" Willow cried out again.
"Willow, you need to calm down. Is it Xander? Spike? Giles?" Angel asked worried.
"No, they are fine." Willow sniffed.
"Then what is it, kitten?" Angel asked relaxing.
"The school! I mean how could they expect us to do that? First they are living things hello! And second eww!" Willow babbled.
"Willow, I am not understanding." Angel replied guiding her to the couch.
"I'm sorry." Willow said and took a deep breathe. "The school has decided that the biology class needs to learn how to dissect. So they brought in..." She paused to shudder. "frogs."
"Frogs," Angel nodded. He recalled several conversations with the redhead about how she hated frogs, that they terrified her. "Baby, what do you want me to do?"
"You have to get rid of them." Willow replied with a firm nod.
"Get rid of them?" Angel asked usually when someone in the group said get rid of they meant kill.
"Yes you have to come to the school with me and collect them in a box and take them far, far away!" Willow answered. "They are the devil pets!"
"Alright, sweetheart." Angel smiled and kissed her head. He stood and walked into his bedroom and came out a few minutes later dressed. He then grabbed a box from the kitchen.
Willow smiled as he walked toward her and took her hand and headed for the door.
Once they entered the school Willow hid behind Angel.
"Don't worry Willow, I will take care of them." Angel reassured her. "Stay here and I'll go and get them."
"Thank you Angel, I knew I could count on you." Willow smiled brightly at him.
"Always, sweetheart." Angel smiled and leaned down and kissed her softly.
Angel returned a few minutes later holding the box firm he had punched several holes into the box. "I will drop these guys off at the pond on the other side of town."
Willow squealed with delight and wrapped her arms around his neck, "My hero!"
"Now why don't I drop you off at the mansion and I will take care of these 'devil pets' and pick up a pizza and bring it home?" Angel suggested.
"That sounds like a great plan. We can snuggle!" Willow giggled.
"Lots of snuggles." Angel wiggled his eye brows as he and Willow walked out of the school.
The End
