EPILOGUE --------------------
Angel looked over the sleeping beauty in his bed. Cordelia had fallen asleep about an hour ago, finally resting. He knew she should get to the hospital, but she didn't want to. She had had the baby here, in their bedroom, assisted by a midwife, Fred and with Angel by her side, being all overprotective. Finally the baby was born, all beautiful and healthy. It was a girl. Nameless for the moment. They had thought of names, but hadn't decided yet. Angel walked over to the two cribs in the room. Connor was fast asleep, as was his new-born daughter, all pinkish and beautiful. He looked at the little girl, which was already a little clone of her mother. As he made sure they were all fine, and asleep, he called Fred to look after them, and went downstairs, phoning Sunnydale with the happy news.
Angel smiled as he walked down the stairs. He felt happy, almost completely happy. He phoned Buffy, letting their friends know, and even called the penitentiary to let Cordy's parents know. Right after he'd put the phone down, there was a knock on the door. Nobody entered. Angel opened the door, but there was no one there, only a little box. He picked it up ; 'a present for the little beauty' was written on it. Angel gave a shrug and took it with him to the room.
*-*-*
As she woke up, she looked right into his loving eyes. He was still worried, she could tell, but she was fine. Still a bit sore, but fine. And so was the baby. He placed the little angel in her arms without she'd asked for it. He just knew. They remained silent, both just smiled, enjoying the moment
'We have got a present' Angel finally said, taking the baby from her, handing her the box.
'From whom ?'
'I have no idea. open it'
He didn't have to say that twice. Cordy had it opened in no time, revealing a beautiful little dress for the baby-girl, a little toy with the note 'For little Connor' and then a letter, reading 'For the Champ and his Seer' Cordy and Angel looked at each other, then started reading. It was from Skip.
My dearest friends,
First let me say congratulations! Also from my all-powerful employers. I'm not really good at writing, certainly not all formal and still letters, so I'm just gonna say what I've been told to tell you; I hope you like the gifts. The children's are in the box, yours is to be found in this letter. Don't thank me, it came from way up, from the Powers That Be.
Holtz will no longer be threat to you and your family. All portals to the hell-dimension are closed. He can't come back, and will meet his maker on an appropriate time. As you both watch your little angels sleep you must but wonder how this second miracle was possible. Angel not becoming Angelus, you've got that one down yourself, consider the rest a special reward from the PTB They thought you both needed some happiness, so they let love conceive a child.
And they've got just one more thing in store for you. Cordelia, Angel, you're both warriors, fighting the good fight, and you've both already done a great job, fighting and parenting, sot he PTB decided to grant you both some more happiness. No Cordelia, you're not pregnant!...Just happiness, complete happiness, without a risk. Angel, you're soul is permanent now. Another step towards your humanity has been taken.
Well, I guess I've said about everything now.
All that rest me now is to wish you all the best of luck, and now I'll leave you guys to the kissing or whatever...
Good luck,
your friend, Skip.
Angel and Cordy just looked at each other, staring in amazement. Then they both smiled, and their mega-wattsmiles soon turned into that megawatt kiss, which seemed to last for hours. They finally broke free, looking into each others eyes.
'I love you, Cordelia'
'I love you too, Angel'
'Now, here and for all eternity'
Cordy smiled, 'Let's make it Now, here 'till we die and then for all eternity'
Then she captured his lips again, claiming his mouth, pulling him into a passionate kiss. A bit further, two beautiful babies lie asleep in their cribs, a bright future, filled with love, laid in store.
**** THE END ****
A/N: so, there it is: END... :o) We've reached the final destination! yay!!
*Aset sighs and nips of her coke, looking at all the pages she's written and sighs again*
Hope you enjoyed it... (If you did, or if you didn't, just hit that blue- purple box down here on the right, and drop me a line or so, I appreciate that ;o) And for all of you who have done this already TNX!!!) special thank you to Horus, Dena, Ernie and Miss Sunnydale!!! I'm still wondering how you guys do it... It's really amazing you haven't turned mentally ill due to me!
Greets,
Aset, finally a little holiday, then saying 'hello' to her books again :'(
