A Deathly Romance (CH 7)
Like A Slayer...Kissed by Death
by obi's girl
Disclaimer: A parody of Like a Virgin, by Madonna. Dude, wasn't that scene hilarious? I can't get it out of my mind. Zidler singing as Madonna and the Duke, singing with him with his wimpy voice. Anyway, Angel sings in this one what would be Zidler's part.
Angel sighed, reading by the fireplace. Surprisingly, not much had changed since he became human. He was still quiet, kept to himself. He thought, when it did happen, he would be different. His personality would be different. Didn't happen. It's like he didn't become human at all. Of course, the only thing that made it feel real was having Buffy by his side. For so long, he wanted her near but could never be because of the curse. Now, he had her, now she was within reach, being human didn't seem so bad after all.
"Angel, are you here?" a petite voice called.
He put down the book, marking it standing up from the fireplace as she entered. She was sight. Even at 30 years old, she was still hot and sexy. She smiled, nodding to the book. "Was I interrupting your reading?"
"No. I was getting bored anyway." He joked, walking closer. Angel held her tight, smelling her golden hair. Buffy smiled, lightly pulling away. "What's wrong?"
She shrugged, "Nothing is wrong. Why would you think something is wrong?"
Angel frowned, staring at her. "Something is wrong. What is it?"
Buffy let up, letting go, distancing herself away from Angel. "Angel, you know I love you. I wanted my whole life to be with you, except with the curse, that made things impossible, not likely." She paused, fingering her ring. "I just...things have changed."
"What's changed?"
She looked down, fidgeting with her ring. "I've fallen in love with someone else." Buffy glanced up at him to see if he was angry. His face was as it always had been - expressionless but she knew he was hurt. It hurt telling Giles and the gang she was dying. "I love you, I do but somehow, I don't know - it feels like...."
"Feels like what?" he questioned.
"Like there's no more mystery. I know its silly but it's who I am. I've fallen for the guys with mystery, intrigue, and danger. Now, you're not that anymore - it scares me." Buffy admitted, shivering.
Angel scratched his head, confused. "I thought your dream was for me to be human?"
"It is...was rather."
He laughed, "Was? Buffy, what are we talking about here? Who is this guy?"
She nodded, walking past him but Angel grabbed her arm, glaring into her eyes. Buffy frowned, struggling to be free. "Angel, you're hurting me."
"Who is he? Who is it that stole your heart away from me?"
"No one, you know." She shot back, finally freeing herself from him. Buffy froze in place, fighting back tears. "I'm sorry; I am but I love Him. He's unlike anyone I've ever met. He's, Jack..."
Angel raised an eyebrow, coming to a realization, "Jack? As in Jack the Ripper? You're dating Death? You're having an affair with the Angel of Death?"
Buffy didn't reply except, nod, standing at one side of the room, her back to him. Angel huffed, "Like a Slayer - Kissed by Death for the very first time. Like a Slayer. When your heart beats lying next to Him."
"I gave you all my love...only - " Buffy turned to him, tears in her eyes, "Our love is fading fast. Been saving. 'Cause only true love can't last forever."
He laughed, looking away. "You're so fine and now you're His. I made you strong, yeah I made you bold." Angel laughed tears in his eyes. "Oh our love thawed out. Yeah, our love thawed out; now it's tarnished and cold."
"Kissed by Death for the very first time. Like a Gurl in love when my heart beats next to Him. Like a Slayer Gurl. Oooh, oooh, oooh." Buffy sang, smiling a bit.
"He's so dead and you're His. You'll be his 'till the end of time. 'Cause He makes you feel; Yeah, He makes you feel. You've nothing to hide." Angel roared, unable to contain himself.
Buffy smiled, confronting him. "Like a Slayer - Kissed by Death for the very first time. Like a Slayer. When my heart beats next to Him. Like a Slayer, ooh, ooh. Like a Slayer; feels so good inside. When Jack holds me, and my heart beats, and He loves me."
Angel nodded furiously, "Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh - Ooh, baby. Can't you hear my heart beat for the very first time?"
She shrugged, "I do, but I just don't feel it anymore." Buffy huffed, kissed his cheek one last time, leaving him alone to his thoughts. Once Buffy was outside the mansion, she fell onto the grass, crying. "Like a Slayer - Kissed by Death for the very first time. Like a Slayer. When your heart beats lying next to Him." She buried her head, not even feeling Jack appear out of no where.
"Like Death - kissed by the Slayer for the very first time." He sang, startling her.
