Angel yawned as he walked into Wolfram&Hart. "Good morning Angel!" He groaned as Harmony ran over. "I got you a nice cup of blood. No marshmallows in it this time."
He grumbled and kept moving which sent Harmony into a huff. She flounced to her desk and plopped down in her chair. She turned to the girl who now sat at her desk with her. "I tell you Caoimhe. Men have no respect for us."
'Maybe just not for you.' "You are so right Harmony." Caoimhe grinned and focused on the computer. 'Focus on the plan. We need friends everywhere.'
"So. Girl talk." Inwardly she groaned. 'No! Leave me alone.' She turned to Harmony trying to keep her eye from twitching. "Tell me about yourself. You know, boyfriends, school, things like that."
Caoimhe tucked her pale blond hair behind her ear. "Well, I have a boyfriend. And we've been "dating" since we were very small. He actually should be in London by now."
"He's British?" Harmony perked up. "Guys with accents are so hot aren't they?"
Caoimhe held up her hands. "No no no. He's not british. His grandfather lives there." She let out a tiny little sigh. "I really miss him." She glanced at the clock and than at her cell. "You don't think the boss would mind if I took my break now, would ya?"
"Oh go ahead. I take breaks all the time."
///balcony at Wolfram&Hart///
"Come on. Come on. Pick up the phone." Caoimhe tapped her silver tipped fingers on the railing. She looked over the edge of the balcony and watching all the people scurry around like ants on the sidewalk like the ants that they used to burn with magnifing glasses.
After two ring the phone was picked up. "Unless this is the most beautiful woman in the world I'm hanging up."
"William." That single breathly word stopped him.
"Well well well. Today is my lucky day. The most beautiful woman in the world did call me."
"Oh I miss you so much." Caoimhe flopped herself over the railing. "I'm stuck with this dumb blond as a desk buddy all day long. My bosses are decent though."
"Yeah, I haven't been able to really go anywhere. Gramps is worried about me getting lost. But I'll be eating Mom's friends soon enough."
"I'm happy for you Will." Caoihme smiled. "Why don't you talk to your grandfather and see if you can come here. That would be so wicked."
"I'll talk to him."
In the background she heard someone. "William. Are you up?"
"Hang on a second Gramps! I've got to go love. I'll talk to you soon 'kay?"
"Love you babe. Don't have to much fun without me." She stared at the phone as it went to a dial tone. She looked at the door and back at the balacony and wondered which would be better: go back to the dumb blond or jump off the balcony.
She retreated inside taking the long way around. She hated this place. Everything smelled weird, the people were strange and she kept getting stared at. "Hey C." Harmony placed two cups of blood in her hands. "COuld you take these into the boss' office?"
'Don't kill her. Don't kill her.' "Sure I can Harmony." She walked into Angel's office. "Sir?"
"Yes... um." Angel kept blanking on her name. "I'm sorry. Whats your name again?"
"Caoimhe sir. I have the blood for you and your friend." She nodded to the man with his back to her that sat in the chair across from Angel.
"What kind is it?" A british accent she was pretty sure. He was studing files and didn't turn to look at her.
"Spike. Don't be a fucking asshole. SHe wouldn't be able to-"
Angel was cut off as she sniffed the blood and grimced. "Ugh. Pigs blood." She shook her head. "The lead of a corperation shouldn't drink pigs blood. Wait here." She left, Spike raised an eyebrow.
"She's an odd bird isn't she?"
She came back with a thermos in her hands. She dumped the pigs blood out the window as Angel protested and filled the two mugs with the contents of the thermos. "Sorry I can't do much better than this but it is kinda short noticed." SHe handed them back their mugs. "That should be better."
Angel sipped it. "It is. What is it?"
"Bunnies."

Spike jerked his thumb towards her. "I like her."
Caoimhe glowed with pride. She noted that Spike looked a lot like William. She would have to talk to Will's mother later.
