I'd
like to watch you sleep at night,
To hear you breathe by my side
And although sleep leaves me behind,
There's nowhere I'd rather be
And now our bed is oh so cold,
My hands feel empty, no-one to hold
I can sleep what side I want,
It's not the same with you gone
Oh if you'd come home, I'll let you know that

Riiiiiiiing…
"Hello, Buffy Summers here."
"I know about you and Spike, Buffy." Angel said to Buffy in the phone.
"What, how…" Buffy stuttered.
"Did you really think that the rumors wouldn't reach LA?" Angel said with ice in his voice.
"Angel, he's nothing, it was a mistake, and it didn't mean anything." Buffy pleaded.
"Enough Buffy. God, I left you so that you could have a normal life, and you waste it with that scum William the Bloody."
"It's over between me and Spike. I swear Angel." Buffy said crying.
"Why did you do it?"
"I…"
"Why?"
"I needed him, because…he remained me of you."
"…"
"Angel?"
"Of me?"
"Yeah, Angel I never truly slept with him."
"What are you talking about?"
"When I slept with Spike I imagined that I was with you. That's the only reason I did it. I will always love you. Only you."
"Buffy darling. I'm sorry I was so mean to you. It's just that when I heard about you and Spike, I just lost it."
"Angel, you will always be my true love. Don't forget it. The thing with Spike is over forever."
"One day we will be together my love." Angel said with love in his voice.
"I know."
"I love you Buffy."
"I love you to Angel."

All
you want, is right there in that room, all you want
All you need is sitting there with you, all you want
I'd like to watch you sleep at night,
To hear you breathe by my side.
