Summary: Cordelia deals with more (funny) consequences from becoming a demon, while Spike makes a visit to L.A. A/C
A/N: Please review or send any comments or flames to my email above :) Words inside * are what the characters are thinking, and ***( )*** is someone having a vision. Bear with me on the symbols, it doesn't let me do italics :) This takes place after Provider, Season 3 on Angel, and I guess Gone, Season 6 on Buffy.
A/N2: Thank you to everyone for reviewing!!! For those who haven't, plz R&R....or just Review.... hehe :)
A/N3: Sorry that it took so long for me to post this....lots of homework is to blame!!! Also, in the story, while Spike was in Sunnydale, Tara checked out Buffy like she did in 'Dead Things'...so Buffy is human.
Chapter Eight: Horns
Cordelia listened as Evan filled her in on how he was no longer working for Wolfram and Hart.
"They wanted me to kill demons, and that's very un-Christian since the demons weren't attacking me or anything," He remarked. Cordelia stared at him.
He's so gorgeous! She screamed to herself. I just want to eat him up!
"So you forgive me, I mean definately. Because I really would love to have a relationship with you but I don't want you to have to be with me because you feel bad or anything," Evan finished.
"I totally forgive you!" Cordelia kissed him.
* * *
"Evan's suceeded in winning back Cordelia. Part A of the plan is complete," Lilah said into the phone. "Yes sir, Part B will soon be in motion. Goodbye," She hung up.
"I'm finally going to succeed in the one thing you couldn't," She said to the man tied up in the chair. "I'm going to kill Angel."
* * *
"So Cordelia seems really happy with him..." Willow noticed.
"He's nice," Buffy put in.
"I like him, he's so..." Xander looked for the word.
"Normal?" Anya guessed.
"Yes!" Xander nodded his head.
"I get that...I don't like him," Anya stated.
"What? An, how can you NOT like this guy?" Xander wondered.
"He's too normal, his suit is Armani...always a sign your trying to impress the person...and not bad except he wore a blue suit. He's trying to convince someone of something," Anya informed them.
"How would you know this?" Buffy asked.
"We had to take a class on apparel before we became vengence demons," Anya explained.
"I like him, good for Cordelia...she deserves a normal guy, a normal chance at love," Buffy remarked.
"He's a bloody wanker," Spike laughed. "Look at the nancy boy, all, 'I'm a lawyer, take me home to daddy!' Don't like him a bit."
"Thank you," Anya sided with Spike.
Buffy stared at him. "You would be against him," She stated.
"And why is that love?" Spike asked.
"Don't call me love."
"Slayer."
Xander, Anya, and Willow headed over to the counter, while Spike and Buffy headed into the training room.
"So why am I against the poof?" Spike asked her.
"Because he's everything your not Spike."
"Ouch, pet, that one might hurt if I had a beating heart..." Spike taunted, but he was hurt by the statement.
"He knows how to apologize, say when he's wrong. He's willing to be nice to her friends I bet...instead of insulting them, badgering them...And I bet you that no matter what, no matter what happened, he'd still be alive at the end of the day," Buffy looked at him, and then said the words that she knew would hurt him most. "And you're dead, you don't have a soul. I'm human...you're not, you'll never be human," She said.
Spike felt a pang in his chest, and looked to see if someone had staked him. Nope, only Buffy. "If you're such a human, then why can I hit you Slayer," He taunted. "Why don't I feel pain when I hurt you?"
Buffy met his eyes, and almost smirked. "Tara checked me out Spike, I'm a human, a couple molecules might have gotten switched around, but I'm human," She told him.
Spike seemed thouroughly shocked by this.
"Your chip just got confused...that's all Spike. And you and me...I don't know why I let you do those things to me. But I'm telling you right now, let Cordelia be happy with her 'nancy boy' as you call him. Let her be," Buffy felt tears rising. "I've had normal...and once it's gone, you're never going to get it again."
"Why do you want normal? It's boring," Spike asked her.
"That's why I want it. For once I want to wake up in the middle of the night because I'm hungry, not because the next apocalypse is coming, or because my vampire boyfriend wants sex-" Buffy stopped, realizing what she had just said.
"Vampire boyfriend?" Spike asked. "Me, or is there another one you're shagging?"
"Shut up, that came out wrong," She protested.
"I don't think it did," Spike replied. He kissed her, gently, surprising her. "I'll leave the lawyer alone, but I doubt she gets her normal. She deserves better than normal," He told her, and then left.
"Spike," Buffy called.
"Yes love?" He asked.
"I...Come by later?" She asked.
Spike stared at her. "As in your house?"
Buffy rolled her eyes. "Did I move?"
"I'll be there love...after the nibblet falls asleep," He said, and then left.
"Yeah..." Buffy was confused about what just happened. Did I just invite Spike over?
* * *
"So I'll call you tomorrow?" Evan asked, as he was getting ready to leave the shop.
"Okay," Cordelia grinned at him, giving him a final - but long goodbye kiss.
After Evan left, Xander, Willow, and Buffy gave whistles.
"So...whose your friend?" Buffy asked.
"Is he gonna call you tomorrow!" Willow joined in.
"What are you gonna wear on your date?" Xander teased.
"Shut up, he's special," Cordelia grinned. "I just feel all highschool giddy when I get around him you know?"
Anya hmphed and muttered something like, "And we all know how could your highschool relationships turned out!"
Unable to hear her, Cordelia went on, "He's so...yummy!"
"You're not going to eat him are you? I mean that's not a demon side affect," Xander asked.
"No dumbass," She rolled her eyes. "So...where's Spike?" She asked.
"In his crypt probably," Buffy answered. "He usually is."
"What is it with vampires and finding the darkest places to live?" Cordelia asked. "If I were going to live forever, and didn't have a soul...I'd be killing rich people all over the place and living it up in Beverly Hills!"
Willow and Xander laughed, while Buffy tried not to think of the blond vampire.
"Well I'll catch you all later!" Cordelia called, walking to the cemetary.
* * *
Bang bang bang! Spike opened his door, expecting to see Buffy, but found Cordelia instead. "Women and their obnoxious knocking," Spike muttered.
"Hello to you too!" Cordelia looked at him, but he seemed angry with her. "Hello? Did I do something?"
"I don't bloody know, did you do someone...oops I mean something," Spike asked.
"Oh, you mean Evan," Cordelia sat down.
"What happened to Angel?" Spike asked. "Not that I care all that much, but my sire's fallen for you, I didn't think you were like the Slayer to just up and leave a guy."
Cordelia stared at him. "How would that even work? Angel and me, are you sure he wants me all that much? With my tail, my new demonic powers? Maybe he wanted the human Cordelia, who only got visions, but I don't think ANYONE would want me with this tail! Next thing you know, I'll be sprouting horns!" She shouted. She felt a pop! on her head, and quickly pulled out a compact.
"Oh shit..." She felt faint.
There were two black horns on her forehead.
* * *
When Cordelia woke up a few hours later, she wondered where she was. She was in a large bed, surrounded by gray walls, and several candles.
"Spike's bed," She realized, and quickly felt for horns. They were gone, but her tail was still there. "Great."
"Mornin," Spike said, drinking a jar of blood, wearing only pants.
Cordelia gazed at his well muscled stomach. "How is it that Buffy keeps rejecting you?" She wondered. She wondered what Evan's stomach looked like...
"Dunno pet," He said, refusing to tell that the Slayer hadn't rejected him last night.
* * *
Cordelia walked along the beach with Evan, holding his hand.
They stopped to kiss, when suddenly Evan pulled away. "I feel like I know nothing about you," He told her.
"What do you want to know?" She asked.
"About your work, I want to know how you really got into the whole detective business," He put his arms around her, as they sat down close to the waves.
She began with how she had run into Angel at a party, while Evan listened.
* * *
"So Angel's son...tell me about him. It must be fun having a baby around," Evan remarked.
"Oh he's the cutest baby ever! But..." Cordelia grew uncomfortable. "I never told you Angel had a son..."
Evan looked nervous. "Oh, Wolfram and Hart told me before I quit," He told her.
"Well I can't really go into that with you, I mean I just...It's not exactly information you go around screaming! There are so many nutcases around here trying to get their hands on him."
"I prefer the term bitch," Lilah stated, before knocking Cordelia unconscious with a blow to the temple. "Evan, you may go back to L.A. Collect your money, you're free to go," Lilah told him. Evan nodded, and ran off.
"Part B of the plan is in action. We'll be using force to retrieve the information out of Ms. Chase," Lilah said into the phone. "Goodbye."
The man tied to the chair glared at Lilah, but a gag prevented him from saying anything.
"Oh shut up, you're just pissed because a woman's doing what you couldn't," Lilah told him, and then had two of her men place Cordelia in van. They failed to notice horns had sprouted on her forehead again.
