She couldn't stop grinning like a fool on the way back to Willow and Oz's
house.
Angel was human. She wanted to scream out of happiness. They could finally have the normal life together. She had dreamed about it ever since she was sixteen.
She opened the door of the house and walked in, closing the door behind her.
"Buffy is that you?" She heard Willow's voice coming from the living room.
"Yeah Will it's me." She walked in, finding Willow on the couch with a spell book on her lap. Willow looked up seeing the happy look on her best friend's face.
"It took you long enough to buy a few groceries, and why are we so happy today?"
"Nothing in particular. Can't a person be happy on such a beautiful day?"
Willow gave her a 'I'm not buying it' look. "Did you run into someone or something?"
Buffy tried to hide her grin, while taking the groceries to the kitchen. "Or something."
Willow followed her into the kitchen. "You did, didn't you? So who was it?"
"Oh I met a few fans while I was walking towards the supermarket," Buffy said while she was putting the groceries away. "We talked a little and I signed some autographs for them. They were really nice girls."
"Why do I have a feeling that you're not telling everything to me?"
"Hmm maybe because I didn't tell you everything. Oh Will! I can't believe it!" Buffy said, no longer wanting to fool her friend. "I was walking back from the supermarket, when suddenly I got that special feeling inside my stomach again."
"You mean the special feeling you only get when HE is around?"
"Yes! So I looked across the street....And there he was, standing in the sunlight!"
"Angel's here in Sunnydale, and you saw him standing in the sunlight? How can that be possible?"
"He's human Will"
"Human? How? When?"
"I don't know yet."
"You didn't talk to him?"
"I did. When I looked at him, he looked right back at me. We were both shocked to see each other. But eventually I walked over to him. He asked me how I was and I got mad because he didn't tell me that he's human now. I walked away and he came after me, turning me around..and... and he kissed me." Buffy said with a dreamy look in her eyes. "It was so wonderful Will. After so much time I got to kiss him again. Feeling his lips on mine, his warm lips. His strong arms holding me thightly against him. I almost turned into a big puddle of Buffy mush."
"Oh my god Buffy! That's so great!" Willow exclaimed, happy for her best friend, hugging her tightly. "So, are you guys back together?"
Buffy let go of Willow and walked back to the living room, sinking down on the couch. "I don't know Will. There are still a lot of issues we need to work out. I'm still mad at him for not telling me that he somehow turned human. And besides, we haven't seen or spoken each other in five years. We both changed a lot. After we kissed, we had an odd conversation. But he did ask me to have diner with him tonight, though."
"Oh I'm so happy for you! And you're right, you've been apart for a long time. You shouldn't rush things, you slowly need to rebuild your relationship, learning to know each other again. So, at what time is he going to pick you up?"
"At eight. He needs to make spaghetti for Cordy first. She came a long because she wanted to see her friends and family again."
"Oh I would love to see her again. She has changed so much since high school."
"Yeah, I know." Buffy's eyes wandered towards the clock. "Oh look at the time! It's five o'clock already! I have to prepare for my date with Angel tonight. I need to take a bath, paint my nails, picking a dress-" "Buffy you're overreacting." Willow said, interrupting her friend. "Why do you need so much time to prepare for your date? It's Angel we're talking about. He thinks you look stunning no matter what you'll wear."
"I know, but I need to do this for me and besides I need something to occupy my mind or else I'll go insane. I'm really nervous Will. This time we could really make it work, no stupid curse or destinies can stop us from being together now."
"I have faith in you two. You guys belong together, I've always known that. Did I ever told you how jealous I was at you back in high school?"
"No, you didn't. Wanna share?"
"I saw the love you had for each other, it was radiating from your eyes. I was jealous of you because I wanted someone who could love me like that. Luckily I found Oz. Although our love is completely different from what you and Angel feel for each other. Our love is plain, nice and simple. But yours, yours is filled with passion, desire and need. No matter how much time has passed, you'll still want each other, you need each other. Your love is unique, many couples will never share the love and bond you have. I'm not jealous anymore but I do envy you."
"Thanks Will. That was beautifully said. You're a great friend." They shared a brief hug and then Buffy headed for the stairs, going to her room to get ready for her date.
Willow was just starting to read her book again, when Oz came home. She jumped off the couch, running towards her husband and hugged him tightly. "Hmmpf Willow I need to breathe. What happened that made my Will so happy? Did you drank some coffee again?"
"Oh no Oz! It's Buffy and Angel! Oh there's so much I need to tell you..." Buffy smiled as she heard her friend talking about her and Angel to her husband. Sweet Willow, she was never gonna change. She opened her closet door, pulling out every dress she had in there. She sighed while she was going thorough them. She needed to look her best for Angel. The strapless white one or the long marine blue evening gown? 'This could take awhile', she thought.
