Sorry for the delay. I've been working on other works. I'm going to finish this one along with the two others I'm still working on. Then I'm going to work on another, but I'm going to work on it alone and not branch off and work on another.
So review. If you please.
Chapter 6
Natalie sat in Central Park. Alone. Everything her aunt had told her running through her head. She had to come to a decision. Can I forgive him? I mean my dad did horrible things, too. And everyone forgave him. I still love him. I just don't know what to do.
She sat watching couple after couple walk by holding hands. Sighing, she finally understood. I have a guy any girl in this time would kill to get. He's sweet, romantic, and writes poetry. Ok, some of it's dark, but mostly it becoming sweet. I'll just ask that he clear the air and tell me everything. Beside I would keep this a secret, too. If I were him.
Natalie stood up and began to walk back to her aunt's apartment not noticing the man with dark hair watching her.
William sat alone in the apartment. Dawn had left to go to work and Natalie had left to think. He sighed. I'm a real fool. I should have told her. I shouldn't have kept a secret. Now I've lost her.
He placed his face in his hands. Then he heard the front door open. He looked up to see Natalie walk in and shut the door behind her. She put her coat away and faced him.
William swallowed and looked at her.
"I forgive you, but you have to tell me everything else I need to know."
"I should have told you earlier. I was just scared."
"I know. So start talking."
He had told her everything. Everything. So now she knew. Her mother had used him. He had thought he loved her and she used him. Then drunk he had tried to.., but then he had left and gotten his soul. Then after returning he realized he really didn't love her. But he had remained with her parents and their friends.
He was there the day she was born. The first to hold her. That day he realized she was the one he was weighting for. He had saved her time after time waiting on her to grow up.
William looked at her. Natalie looked at him.
"I've waited a long time for you, Angel."
"Why do you keep calling me that?"
"Because to me you are an angel. Also it's your real first name."
"I guess you would know that."
"I named you."
"WHAT!"
"Well, I came up with the idea to name you Angel. They agreed and then added Natalie."
She looked at him. "Ok. Anything else you want to tell me?"
"Nothing else at the moment. That's to you. Mostly after you were born I stayed until…"
"I know. What did you do after my parent's were killed?"
"I started the clubs. Mostly I helped who needed it. I'd travel to London. I watched you graduate."
"Why?"
"I still don't really know. I did it mostly cause no one else could make it, I guess."
"No one else?"
"Your mum's best friends are in L.A. They couldn't come. I offered to pay, but they don't really trust me. So I went. I was there for you when no one else could."
Natalie looked past him at the clock on the wall. "The sun's gone down. What to get out of here?"
"And go where?"
She stood up from the sofa. "You have to come and find out."
William sat smiling in the tiny restaurant in China Town. Natalie had ordered for them. They sat waiting for their meal.
"So why did we come here?"
"I tried this place a few days ago. It's good food and cheap."
He nodded as the waiter brought their drinks. "I haven't really had Chinese food before."
"Really. You've been there."
"I was a vampire."
"Yeah, well that hasn't stopped you from eating hot wings and bloomin onions."
He only smiled as the waiter brought their food.
William and Natalie left and Natalie led them to an Italian Gelato shop. After getting their desert the two began to walk their way back towards the apartment.
They were about a block away when a blonde walked out in front of them.
"Hello, Spike."
Natalie looked at the blonde and smirked.
"So Harmony finally decides to show up. Sorry sister. He's taken and you need to get your dumb blonde butt out of my way."
Harmony looked at the brunette in front of her. She didn't see the power that she carried. She saw only a little brat that was human.
"Why should I do anything you say?"
Natalie began to chant and then help a ball of flame in her hand. "This is why."
Harmony looked at the flame.
"I thought you were a slayer."
"Sorry. Just a witch. Also I've been warned about you for a while. Now get Blondie."
Harmony quickly ran through her opinions. "You win this round."
She left them. William turned to Natalie.
"How did you know that was her?"
"I've seen her in my mom's high school year book."
William only smiled as they continued their way to the apartment.
