A/N: one more chapter after this…

There was so much yelling and it made her emotions rush through her.

Neither her mom nor Angel paid any attention as she ran out of Angel's office, making her way through the halls of Wolfram & Hart. Her emotions running rampant, she stopped running only to burst through a random office door.

'This was all a mistake. I should have just kept my big mouth shut.'

Josh and Christina were hot on her heels and caught up to her about 10 seconds later. "Hey Maddie it's going to be okay," Chrissie told her best friend as she pulled her into a hug. But Maddie broke away.

"No it's not!" Madyson yelled. "My mom and Angel are fighting. She doesn't want him around me or me around him."

"Uh, that's kind of the same thing Mads." Josh said, chiming in. Then there was a well-timed, "Ouch!" when Christina smacked him. "You need to stop that!"

Christina shrugged. "Okay," she told him. "I will when you stop being a dork."

A small laugh escaped Madyson's mouth.

"See, that's my Mads," said Josh. Madyson sat down on a couch and Josh sat next to her. "Christina is right. Everything is going to turn out awesome."

"How do you know that?" Madyson asked him.

"Easy. It's because you're Maddie."

Right then someone cleared his throat. "You do know this is my office?"

The three teens just seemed to take notice that there was another person in the room. "Sorry," they said.

"It's okay," replied this person. Looking at Madyson this person asked her, "Is Laura O'Connor your mom?"

"Maybe…" said Maddie as she wondered how this person knew who her mom was.

"She's been giving me pictures of you since you were little. I'm your god-father, Lindsey McDonald." Picking up his phone he dialed a number. "Yeah its Lindsey…she's here…uh-huh…okay." Hanging up he said, "Your Mom and Dad are coming."

"You know Angel's my dad?" Madyson asked him.

"The vampire having a daughter? Anyone working here knows that."

Madyson stood up from her seat on the couch. Sensing she was nervous, Josh took her hand and gave it a comforting squeeze. "Remember, you're Maddie."

"Thanks Josh," she said hugging him. Then she kissed him. Christina yelled, "I KNEW IT!"

After the brief kiss Madyson pulled away from Josh and saw her mother and her father, Angel, looking at them. Laura had her arms crossed. "Hi Mom." Said Madyson.

"Hi Ms. O'Connor."

Angel showed his fangs growling a bit at Josh…
