AN: A break from the normal, tragic stuff. I got the idea when I was eating waffles with too much syrup on them - it made me cough and think of Angel so. . .viola!
"What are you doing?" Collins asked.
"Getting tea," Angel answered, closing the refrigerator door.
"Cold?" Collins asked, as if that were the grossest thing he'd ever heard of.
"Yes," Angel answered pouring the tea into a glass. "You wan-" she cut herself off when she saw Collins staring at her. "What now?" she asked, starting to become annoyed.
"You're strange, you know that, Angel?" wasn't really an answer, but okay. Angel scoffed, trying not to laugh.
"That's rhetorical, right?" Angel asked.
"Yes, and I don't care if you're strange, I get you all to myself." Collins answered, um, purred actually, wrapping his arms around Angel, lifting her about two inches off the floor. Lucky Angel had already put the tea away, or there'd be a big mess.
"Collins!" Angel cried, totally unexpecting to be picked up. "Put me down, please. I've got breakfast to finish!" she whined, longingly looking at her syrup-covered waffles.
"Women," Collins sighed jokingly, letting Angel stand on her own feet. "Always replacing their men with food."
"Oh, hush. We skipped dinner last night - so there!" Angel said, sticking her tounge out at Collins.
"Better put that toung back in your mouth, Missy. A fly might land on it."
"Oh, Collins, I don't know what I'm going to do with you sometimes." Angel said sitting down on the bar stool next to the bar in their kitchen. She took a bite of her waffles as Collins continued talking.
"Well, you could just do me, but no, you have to finish your breakfast." Collins said teasingly, making Angel's food fly out of her mouth from laughing at Collin's predictable, but unexpected, reply. She laughed so hard she began to cough.
"How many times must I tell you not to make me laugh when I'm eating?!" Angel yelled with false anger.
"Not enough, apparantly, besides, you're cute when you're angry."
"Oh, Collins, please! That's not helping you get into my pants -er, skirt, any faster!" Angel said half jokingly.
"Daaaaaammmmmn. Woman must really love her waffles." Collins said jokingly.
"Shut UP!" Angel said throwing a pillow at him.
Men, she thought. Always get in between women and their food.
