Leo's house was just as Angel suspected… big. The living room was a wide open space with a bunch of cream colored furniture and a large fireplace off to the side. But Angel was too distraught and heartbroken to even admire the beauty of the fancy estate. Leo watched as she carefully took her shoes off and sat on the carpeted floor, her eyes intensely fixed on the fireplace. She was like that for a few minutes before Leo removed his shoes as well and removed his tight black shirt, revealing a form fitting tank, and sat next to Angel by the fire place.

"Angel," He whispered softly. She didn't answer, her eyes never leaving the high peaked flames.

"They left me." She whispered. A tear slowly slid down her face, making Leo move closer to her.

"They left me.. again." Leo embraced her tightly and Angel couldn't hold back anymore, she moved into his embrace and sobbed. All the pent up emotion from tonight just flowed right out of her and Leo just felt this unusual need to not let anyone hurt her again. Not even the three men that she loves the most, even if this was their doing.

"Its ok baby," He cooed into her red tresses. "Nobody's going to hurt you again. I got you now." Angel looked up at him and he wiped her tears with his thumb. At this point their lips were mere inches from each other.

"Leo," She whispered. Her warmth breathe ghosting across his lips, which made him inwardly groan with lust.

"Shh," That was all he got out before his lips touched hers softly. There was no tongue, no intimate biting, just a soft peck on the lips signifying comfort. Angel sighed when he broke the kiss and rested his forehead on hers. They both stared at each other for what seemed like hours.

"Come on, I'll show you your room." Leo took her hand and led her upstairs to the guest room. The room was big as well, but had a homey type feel to it. Angel walked around the room surveying everything while Leo stood at the door, his hands folded in front of his face and a slight smirk played across his lips.

"Comfortable all ready?"

Angel turned around and smiled softly. "I am, actually." She giggled. "Thank you Leo, for everything." She laid down on the bed, still in her dress and make up.

"Anything for you, Angel." He sent her one last smiled before turning on his heels and closing the door.

Leo stood in the door way and watched her sleep. So many thoughts ran through his head about the woman sleeping in his guest room. He wanted nothing more than to scoop her up and place her in his bed. He ached to wrap his arms around her while she slept; he wanted to offer her physical comfort, not just mental.

He could see that Angel change out of her dress in the middle of the not; she was now in her bra and panties. God she looked so good to him. He didn't think Angel understood the magnitude of his want and need for her, to say it was intense would be an understatement. She slept with a slight pout on her full, pink lips. Leo smiled inwardly; she was just as beautiful when she slept. He knew she would have to go back to her house to get her belongings tomorrow and he wasn't looking forward to it. He didn't want Angel around Dean, Seth, and Roman after they just left her in the street due to them jumping to conclusions. He clenched his fists at his sides just thinking about it. He knew she would have to go eventually, and he vowed to be there with her.

The sun seeped in through the guest room curtains, illuminating the room with a deep orange glow. Angel sighed, she has been up for the past two hours thinking about everything that happened the previous evening. How could everything go so wrong so fast. She got up out of bed and made her way to the bathroom and did her morning routine. She sighed as she began to put on her dress from the Christmas party, seeing as she didn't have any clothes. She grabbed her things a went downstairs, the smell of pancakes filtering the air. She smiled as she walked into the kitchen seeing Leo lay the last pancake on a plate and pushed it towards her, inking at her in the process.

"Thanks." Angel giggled, taking a seat and digging in.

"Your welcome beautiful." Leo dug into his food as well. They ate in silence for a few minutes before Leo cleared his throat.

"So, you need a ride to the house?" Angel looked up at him before taking a sip of her orange juice.

"The house?" Angel didn't know what he was talking about.

"You know, to get your belongings." He elaborated. "Or I can buy you clothes and whatever you need and you can stay with me." Angel choked on her juice. "You alright?"

Angel nodded. "Yeah, uh .. Leo, we need to talk." Leo nodded, indicating for her to continue. Angel sighed.

"I um, I have my own apartment. Which I'm glad I decided to keep for situations like this." She looked down at her fingers as she continued. "I appreciate everything that you've done, but I didn't plan on staying with you." She looked up to see Leo's face drop a little. She felt bad.

"I'm sorry; I just think it's best if I was alone for a while. Too much has happened and I'm a little emotional."

Leo nodded in understanding. He stood up and brought the dishes to the sink and washed them in silence. Angel swallowed hard, she didn't want Leo to be upset, but she knew this was best for her at the moment. She snapped out of her thought when the water shut off and Leo approached. He stared at her for a few moments before a small smirk appeared on his face.

"I'll give you a ride."

Angel sat in the passenger seat, looking at the house. She didn't know if the boys were home, so she told Leo to stay in the car. She got out and walked up to the house, using her key to go inside.

Nobody was home.

She could tell that they weren't. They would usually sit in the living room and watch tv, but the weren't. Angel sighed in relief and made her way upstairs, everything was right where she left them. She pulled out her brief cases and packed up her stuff, starting with her clothes.

About 30 minutes have passed and everything was packed. She looked into the room one last time, a tear escaping her eye. She walked down the last step when the door suddenly opened, revealing Dean, Seth, and Roman. All three of them froze, as did Angel.

"Hey." Roman decided to break the awkward silence.

"Hi." Angel tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. "I was just leaving."

Roman nodded. "I see that. Are you going back to your place?" Angel could hear a hint of sadness in his voice, but she nodded anyway.

"Yeah." The room fell silent again. She could see that Roman and Seth looked a bit remorseful while Dean didn't even look at her once. But she knew this situation was hurting him, even if it seemed like it didn't.

"It feels like we haven't seen you in like.. forever, even though everything happened just last night." Seth smiled sadly. Dean looked at Angel for the first time, their eyes meeting briefly before he tore his eyes away. Looking at her was just too much for him.

"It does, doesn't it." Angel returned the smile. She picked up her bag and moved towards the door. "I guess I'll see you guys .. whenever." She added a bit of attitude in her voice for that last statement. They left her at a fucking party, by herself, with no ride. She should be angry, shouldn't she?

Seth looked at her with apologetic eyes. "Angel-"

"Is everything alright in here?" Angel's eyes widened at the voice. She didn't want the boys to see him in fear of making the situation even worse than what it is. She could see the fire in her boys' eyes when they took in the sight of Leo; needless to say, Leo wasn't all too thrilled to see them either.

"Leo, you didn't have to come in, I was just leaving." Angel sighed.

"You were in here for a while; I just wanted to see if you were ok." He responded softly.

"Oh how fucking sweet." Dean spoke up for the first time during the encounter. His eyes held a fire in them, kinda like the fire Angel was staring at last night at Leo's place. The same look was in Seth and Roman's faces, they seem to believe the same thing Dean believed.

"Dean, it's not what it looks-"

"Cut the bullshit Angel." He growled. "You brought him here to rub it in our face and not to mention to confirm what I've been saying all along." He shook his head. "You two just can't get e-fucking-nough of each other."

SLAP!

Dean held his hand up to his face in shock. He turned to Angel, pure fury in his eyes.

"How dare you Dean." She shook her head. "You know I would never do anything to you, to any of you!" She pointed at Roman and Seth, she was just disgusted with them at this point. Leo stood right behind Angel, protecting her.

"You left me out there alone. You fucking left me!" She yelled; tears welled up in her eyes quickly, she didn't want to cry in front of them, but she couldn't control the tears. Not only was she pissed, she was hurt.

"I don't know how many times I have to tell you that nothing is going on between me and Leo; but he was there for me when you guys weren't, and I'll forever be grateful for that." She sighed. "You guys should know that I would never hurt you, but I guess you guys aren't my true Doms."

Dean, Seth and Roman stood there with unreadable expressions on their faces. No more words were to be exchanged as they watched Angel head out the door with her bags and Leo trailing right on her heels, closing the door behind him.
