AN: This is a songfic about Angel and Darla I had a hard time finding a song that fits them but I own Nothing
Every time I close my eyes
Every time I close my eyes
Darla: Do you know what the saddest thing in the world is?
Buffy: Bad hair on top of that outfit?
Darla: To love someone who used to love you.
Buffy: (looks at Angel) You guys were involved?
Darla: For several generations.
Listen girl
I don't know where to start
But every word I say
Comes straight from the heart
I've been so wrong
Never meant to hurt you
Oh girl I'm sorry
For what I've put you through
Darla: (smiles) I made him. There was a time when we shared everything, wasn't there Angelus? You had a chance to come home, to rule with me in the Master's court for a thousand years, but you threw that away because of her. You love someone who hates us. You're sick. And you'll always be sick. And you'll always remember what it was like to watch her die. (smiles) You don't think I came alone, do you?
Girl I'd do anything
For one more chance
(One more chance)
Cuz I want you back again
(Want you back)
Angel: Darla, Anglo-Saxon derivation, meaning 'dear one' - huh, didn't come into common usage until more than a 100 years after she was born. He must have given it to her. I didn't even know her real name.
Cuz every time I close my eyes
I see your face and I wonder
When you close your eyes
Do you think about me
Now that I realize
I want you girl and no other
Every time I close my eyes
You're all that I see
Angel: I want things to be like they were. You and me together Darla. I miss the view.
Darla: That's impossible.
Angel: It's not impossible.
Darla: You still have a soul.
Angel: I'm still a vampire.
Darla: You're not. Look at you. I don't know what you are anymore.
Angel: You know what I am. You made me. Darla. I'm Angelus.
Darla: Not anymore.
You and I shared it all together
Each other is all we'd ever need
(All we'd ever need)
I thought that you would
Stay with me forever
But I took for granted
The love you gave to me
Now I'll keep on trying
(Keep on trying)
Til the end (Til the end)
Baby I need you back with me
(Need you back)
Fred: Who's Darla?
Gunn: Angel's old flame from way back.
Fred: Not the one that died?
Gunn: Yeah. No, not that one. The other one that died and came back to life. She's a vampire.
Fred: Y'all have a chart or something?
Gunn: In the files. I'll get it for you later.
Girl I'm going out of my mind
I miss you so much
I don't know what to do
(What to do)
Please say it's just a matter of time
Until I feel your touch
Darla: Turn me back. God! I can't bear this pounding in my chest for another instant!
Angel: It's gift. To feel that heart beat - to know, really and for once, that you're alive. You're human again, Darla. You know what that means?
Darla: Of course I do. It means pain and suffering and disease and death. Look, I released you from this world once, I gave you eternal life. Now it's time for you to return the favor.
Angel: Favor. Is that what you think? You think you did me a favor? You damned me.
Girl I'm going out of my mind
I miss you so much
I don't know what to do
(What to do)
Please say it's just a matter of time
Until I feel your touch
Until you let me come back to you
Angel: The child. The child has a heartbeat. It has a soul.
Darla: No! Not my child! No!
Spoken
I think about you girl
Every night I'm in love
And it feels so right
I never meant to hurt you
Or cause you pain
I was just caught up in that lying game
But now those days are over
And I've changed my ways
And I'm counting the minutes counting the days
Until you let me come back
Until you let me start
To find a new way
To get back into your heart
Angel: You love it.
Darla: Completely. I love it completely. I-I-I don't think I've ever loved anything as much as this life that's inside of me.
Angel: Well, you've never loved anything, Darla.
Girl I'd do anything
For one more chance
(One more chance)
Cuz I want you
I want you back again
Darla: No. No, I don't think so. Once he's gone, I won't be okay. I won't be okay at all. I don't know what I'll be. Angel... Our baby is gonna die right here in this alley. You died in an alley, remember?
Girl I'm going out of my mind
I miss you so much
I don't know what to do
(What to do)
Please say it's just a matter of time
Until I feel your touch
Darla: This child Angel, it's the one good thing we ever did together. The only good thing. You make sure to tell him that.
You're all that I see
All I can see
Darla: Hi. It's been a while.
Angel: A lifetime.
Girl I'm going out of my mind
I miss you so much
I don't know what to do
(What to do)
Please say it's just a matter of time
Until I feel your touch
Angel: I never been anywhere myself. Always wanted to see the world,but...
Darla: I could show you. (smiles)
Angel: Could you, then?
Darla: Things you've never seen, never even heard of.
Angel: Sounds exciting.
Darla: It is. And frightening.
Angel: I'm not afraid. Show me. Show me your world
Darla: (closes her eyes) Close your eyes
AN: PLEASE REVIEW!!!
