-*- Wesley's appartment – noon -*-
'A sandwich, it's not much, but it's food. Haven't got time nor talent to cook, so it isn't so bad. Actually it's rather tasty. On with my translation ; it's okay now, nearly finished. Just some small details… Just wait for the Eureka-moment now…I can't believe it, how this old gypsytext can hold the key to Connor ! It was hard translating it all, considering the fact that Hungarian isn't related to any other Indo- European language, and considering the fact I don't speak it…. It took me a while, but it's finished now… damn Gypsies, always wanting to do things the hard way ! Why couldn't they have written it down in Greek or Latin ? '
Wesly laughed and took a nip of his drink, finishing his sandwich. Then it suddenly hit him…
'Eureka !' he jumped up, causing him to grin, feeling a sudden pain in his not-quite-healed-leg. 'I got it !' he smiled brightly as he underlined some words in his translation. 'I really did it' he said proudly.
'The princess will lead the way,
but you'll have to wait yet another day.
Drink the devil's blood
And see the Godess' knot.
Break the spell with a kiss
And the child will be forever his'
A father's love is great
But he'll need other aid.
Demons, dragons he will face,
To finally be able to hold him in his embrace.'
He smiled, then felt sad again. What would he do with it ?
'I can't just walk up to Angel, and tell him 'Hey, I found a way to bring Connor back !', he'll totally freak out. Calling Fred isn't a good idea either… she's probably too busy with Gunn..and way to enthousiastic…' he sighed as he took up his plate and cup and headed for the kitchen as he heard the doorbell ring.

'Hey gorgeous' Gunn said as he walked up to Fred, who was sitting on the couch, reading one of Cordy's magazines. She blushed as she slowly looked up to him.
'Hi Charles !' she said in a shuy voice. He looked handsome in his green shirt and jeans, and then that sparkle in his eyes…she just melted.
'Want to go out for a drink or something ?'
She nodded and got up, genlty taking his hand, causing him to smile.
'So..euh…where d'you wanna go ?'
'I don't know'
'The park…the coffeebar… ?'
'Coffeebar is fine…I like coffee' she said, a dreamy look on her face.
They moved on, still holding hands. Words were rare ; they didn't need them, just each others company was enough. They entered the café and went to sit down at a table near the window. A waitress brought the menu, smiling at Fred and Gunn.
'Two coffees please' Gunn ordered. No food, just a drink…
'So…what d'yah wanna talk about ?'
She smiled and truned a bit red. 'I don't know' she said as she looked into his dark eyes…so beautiful, so mysterious. She felt she could drown in them…beautiful !
He gave her a little smile, not knowing what to say either. Then the little chat about the weather started, followed by a talk about the demon they killed earlier on, then…Angel and Cordy came up…
'So she's getting a baby huh ?'
'It's wonderful ! ! I love babies ! ' Fred said, smiling brightly.
'Yeah, it's cool'
'I bet Angel's ex isn't too happy about it'
'No…but she's nice I think'
'yeah…I just hope we find Connor'
'Yeah, me too…poor Angel'
He got a hold of her hand, she needed it…he needed it ; they all missed him.
A/N : hey everybody ! ! Sory if I can't update so quickly…exams coming up ..and a boring essay knocking on my door… :s .. but I'll try to hurry ! ! !
