"Well maybe you should consider showering then, because I can smell him all over you."
His harsh words echoed through her mind. How did this situation come about? She didn't want to press the matter with him. She had a great deal of respect for Angel, but sometimes he liked to take the moral high ground with her, whether it was his right or not.
Buffy's eyes met with those of her former lover's. He showed her no sympathy, there was simply a look mixed with disappointment and antipathy. "Yes Angel. We had sex. It was mind-blowing, really you had to be there. Now move out of my way," Buffy said with a hint of aggravation in her voice. She placed both hands on Angel's hip and pushed him to the side of the doorway, slipping through the free space. Angel quickly turned and grabbed a firm hold of her left wrist. "I can't let you walk out of here," he said. Buffy winced as he grabbed her wrist, as it was still raw from the handcuffs earlier in the evening. Angel quickly realized he had hurt her and released her wrist. "Sorry."
Angel ran some fingers through his dark, gelled hair. "Look Buffy, I would really be in your best interest if you stay here so we can sort this whole situation out." Buffy looked back at the vampire, wide-eyed in disbelief. "Is that supposed to be some kind of threat? Look Angel, I don't know what the hell is going on. But to tell you the truth, I know one thing is for sure, and that is that I sure as hell don't trust you. You have no idea what I have gone through the past three months. From my mother, to Riley cheating on me, and then the whole thing with Spike, I've hit a learning curve. I'm not the innocent little high school girl you made out with. Spike has really opened my eyes to different kinds of sexual experiences. He makes me feel free and uninhibited. He could probably give you a few pointers." Angel suddenly felt like Buffy had punched her fist into his chest and ripped his heart out. Where did all her anger come from? This is not the Buffy I know. She's clearly trying to tear me down to detract from her own pain. Her mother has cancer. She has a right to lash out. She didn't mean that, did she? I should just let her go, she needs her space.
Buffy stepped towards the door of the Hyperion and turned looking back. "You should congratulate Spike when you see him. It was with him that I didn't have to fake my orgasms for the first time. He really knows how to get it done," Buffy said. A smile formed across her lips. "See you around Angel." Buffy reached for the handle and walked out of the Hyperion. Almost immediately after the door shut behind her a hand reached from behind her and put a white cloth doused in chloroform over her mouth. Buffy's eyelids became heavy, she felt her feet give out from underneath her…to be continued…
I know that I made Buffy seem like a really huge bitch in this chapter but Angel had it coming, some of it. And things have to get worse before they get better. I still haven't decided who I'm going to ultimately pair Buffy with. Please Review!!
