Willow let Buffy sleep in the next morning. She knew she had been up most of the night and had fallen into a troubled sleep. Instead of going to her classes, which was shocking for her, she made her way to Giles's apartment with two large books in her hands. She walked in to see Xander already there. They seemed to be discussing something important because they didn't notice her when she came in.
"I still think she needs to just do it." Xander said.
"As you always will. Xander, if Buffy kills him there is no telling how she'd recover. Judging from her reaction earlier, she wouldn't fair too well."
"But Giles, she's done it before and was fine. And the world wasn't destroyed."
Giles looked sharply at the boy, "Was she ever the same? Answer me! Was she ever the same after that?"
Xander chose not to respond and looked down at his hands. Willow chose that time to make her presence known.
"Hey guys. Where's everyone else?" Willow asked, trying to get the tension to leave the room.
"Uh, Anya said she didn't feel like getting up. Said she wasn't feeling well." Xander left out that Anya also said the less time she spends with them the less likely Angelus would kill her.
"Oz went to the Magic Box to get some supplies." Giles filled in. He walked over to Willow and grabbed the two books she held in her arms. "Are these it?"
"Yeah. I think the green book would help the most. They had to have written about him and his curse somewhere in here."
Oz walked in through the doors with a small box and a large paper bag in hand. Smiling at the sight of her boyfriend she grabbed the bag and put it on Giles coffee table. "Hey."
"Hey." He smiled at her and then looked back at Giles, "Even though my original plan was to be donut boy-"
"That's my job!"
"- I got all the stuff you wanted," He finished ignoring Xander's outburst.
Giles walked over to the bag and peered inside. "Are these all of the things you used last time, Willow?"
She walked over and looked inside, "Yup, I think so. Is that the Orb?"
Oz, already having said too much, just nodded.
"Great. Now all we need is a distraction for Buffy and we can do the spell." Willow smiled.
Giles sighed and sat down on the couch, reaching for his tea which was behind the bag. "Explain to me why we have to keep this a secret from her, please?"
"In case it doesn't work. We don't want Buffy getting her hopes up only to be shot down." Xander saw Willow dimmed a bit, "But of course it's going to work. We have the best witch on the job here."
Willow looked a little brighter, "And we'll tell her that you and I have to research some kind of demon." Giles nodded.
"So, where can we take her to keep her mind off of Angel?"
They all looked at each other knowing nothing would stop her from thinking about him.
***
Ricky listened as his Master vampire gave him instructions. Ricardo, known as Ricky, automatically took the job when his Master asked for a helper. He would be by the great Angelus' side! He could learn everything from him so that maybe one day he would be a master himself. He would take this opportunity and never be separated from Angelus again. His master finished his instructions.
"Master if I may speak?" Angelus nodded. "Why do find this one, tiny girl so fascinating? Why do you chase after her? Why not kill her?"
"Are you challenging my decisions?" Angelus asked, already aggravated by the fledgling.
"No! No, no, never. I just wanted to know why you made such a great and wise decision for the Slayer is all. So that one day I can make great choices as you." Ricky had admiration in his face towards his King.
Angelus rolled his eyes, and left the living room. Only to have Ricky follow him.
"Will you leave me alone? You have been following me all day!" He growled out and crossed his arms.
"How will I know where to go if I don't follow the leader?" Ricky mimicked Angelus gesture.
He released his hands, "Then, stop copying my exact movements!"
"How will I learn if I don't shadow the teacher?"
Angelus eyes glowed then grabbed a sword from the wall closest to him. About ready to chop Ricky's head he was stopped by a feminine voice.
"Master Angelus!" He turned, "The Slayer's friends have gathered her and left their dwelling."
He nodded at the seemingly young girl and turned back to Ricky. He knew the boy would be incompetent so he had sent another person out on the job. He had originally thought the boy may have been useful for something, he may have been wrong. Although, he wouldn't admit that.
He growled at him but was really talking to the girl, "Go find out where she's going. I don't want to be seen now. Oh, and watch out for my wayward childe, Spike."
They both left in search of the Slayer.
***
"Guys, I really don't want to be here." Buffy groaned as Xander and Willow practically dragged her through the Bronze. Oz and Anya quietly followed behind them.
"It'll be good for you, Buff. Take your mind off-" Willow looked sharply at Xander, "-other things…you know…bad things…"
Buffy rolled her eyes and went to their usual table. Luckily, no one was sitting there. They all sat there a few minutes, trying to ignore all that was going on in their lives and enjoy the music. All of a sudden, Willow's alarm on her watch starting beeping.
"Um, well, I gotta go guys."
Buffy frowned slightly, "Why? We just got here."
"See, Giles wanted to see me at the library. He said he had to research a, uh, Kalrasha demon. Yup, they're some nasty little buggers." Willow lied.
"He never told me we had trouble with Krasha demons."
"Kalrasha." She corrected the fake name, "See? You can't even get the name right, so you wouldn't be good for the research. And he just wanted me to look over some stuff incase we do have…trouble."
Xander looked over at Oz. He just shrugged. It seemed Willow had gotten better at lying.
Buffy seemed convinced. "Ok. Tell Giles I said hi."
"Will do." She looked over at everyone else, "See ya, guys."
With that she strode off out of the Bronze.
"Did Willow seem…strange tonight?" Buffy asked when she walked totally out.
"Yeah, but isn't that why we love her?" Xander said giving a grin. "Come on Buff. Let's dance."
Momentarily forgetting about Willow's behavior she got up and followed him to the dance floor. Surprisingly Anya wasn't jealous or upset when she saw her boyfriend leave. She just sat there staring at her hands.
Oz noticed and spoke up, "You ok?"
She looked up at him then back down, her expression blank, "I guess."
He raised his eyebrows silently telling her to go on.
She sighed, "It's just…before I had an eternity to think about. My only cares were finding people that wanted vengeance and painfully torturing the object of their hate. Now, I can die of cancer, automobiles, bunnies...Angelus."
He continued to stare at her.
"Fine. I don't want Xander hurt. And I know Angelus really hates him, so I don't want him around him too much. If Xander gets killed, what will I have left? That's right. Nothing." She looked up at him, "You really have a way of making people talk."
He nodded and looked back over at Xander and Buffy, "Want something to drink?"
She smiled slightly, "Yeah, Diet. Thanks."
***
Angelus whistled a happy, yet off key tune, as he staked the vampire following Buffy. The boy had become annoying far too quickly. He had let the girl go, telling her to stay at the mansion. Stalking out into the street he made his way to the Bronze.
***
Buffy and Xander came back to the table when a slow song came on. They would have danced to it, but they chose the slower tune as a break.
"Now, I see what I'm missing! Xander was a wild man out there!" Buffy giggled.
Anya, feeling a little better, glared jealously as if saying, "He's my wild man now."
Xander sighed, joking, "If only you could have thought that a year ago, Buff."
Oz's eyes slid from the gang to the dark clad man that had entered the Bronze. His eyes widened slightly, "Uh, oh."
Anya gasped and stared as she saw the dark haired vampire that waltzed into the Bronze. "Shit."
Not hearing their earlier conversation Buffy was surprised to hear them speak. She followed Oz's and Anya's gaze.
"What is he doing here?" Oz said looking at the cocky vampire stare at Buffy.
"I don't know, but if he wants to fight, we don't need a scene. Buffy do you think you could-" Xander looked over to the Slayer. "Buffy? Buffy?"
Buffy had her attention focused on her vampire now straight across from her. The gang looked at each other as the song changed to harder beat. When they looked back Buffy was already standing in front of Angelus.
//So I think you are a fool
Hanging on my every word
It's getting ugly
So I'm ugly//
When the song came on it was as if something pushed her towards him. It seemed as if he felt the same. The met each other in the middle of the dance floor. He grabbed her by the waist and pulled her close, flush against his erection. She began to grind into him to the beat. His hands lowered down to her bottom as he moved with her.
Xander and Oz looked on in shock. Anya shook her head with a frown. "What are they doing?" Xander asked, confused.
"Just hope that Willow and Giles will pull through." Anya answered still looking at the scene that was captivating a lot of attention. Including Spike, who had slipped in behind Angelus.
***
"Asa sa Fie! Acum!" Willow's eyes glowed yellowed as she shouted the words powerfully from the middle of his apartment. Giles looked on with amazement as the air around them crackled with magic. Books from his shelves fell to the floor from the power of the spell.
"Acum!"
***
//Tear me from your heart
Tearing me apart//
"I thought you had actually listened to Soulboy. Thought you went out to find a new mate. We couldn't have that could we?" Angelus whispered to her. She looked up at him mesmerized by something in his eyes. They weren't completely cold.
//So I thought you disappeared
Being alone is what you fear
Are you lonely?
Yes lonely//
"I thought you were gone. Forever. But I would have never had a new mate. You are only for me. But I figured you were trying to forget about me." Buffy had no idea what was happening. She didn't know why her body made her respond to him this way. He was supposed to be evil, and she was supposed to be good…
Tear me from your heart
Tearing me apart
"Maybe you just need a little reminder, baby."
//Rolling, and throwing, consoling
Everything that goes this far
Joking and hoping, revolting
All that shit that's who you are
Hoping, and scolding, revolving
Peel it back, reveal the scar
Loathing, exploding, controlling
This is what you really are/
He fingered the scar on her neck. "You are mine. You always have been. I think it's about time for you and everyone else to realize that." He smirked at her, then at Spike who was staring at them.
***
Willow's eyes shot to Giles's as their yellow color drained out. "What happened? Did it work? It felt so different last time. Giles? What happened?!"
Giles didn't look at her he just stared at the floor, "It didn't work. I don't understand either, but it didn't. It didn't work."
"We have to try again! We have to! Here take this and put it over there." She handed Giles some herbs, "We must have done something wrong! So, we'll have to try again!"
Giles took the herbs, but let them fall to the floor. Willow hurriedly picked them up and was now standing in Giles' face. "What is your problem? I need you to help me!!" Giles shook his head slowly, pain in his eyes. "Why?! Giles, something bad is about to happen! I can feel it! We can try to stop it! Please!"
Giles grabbed the crying girl in a hug, "It's too late, Willow. God, I'm sorry, but it's too late."
"No!" She broke out of Giles grip and ran out the door. Giles, trying to gather his emotions, ran after her.
***
Buffy didn't know why but she let Angelus lead her out in to the alleyway in the middle of the song. You could easily hear the music blast from the inside. He grabbed her roughly and pushed her up against the wall. Surprising him, she kissed him fully on his lips and jumped up on him.
He moaned, "Do you know what you do to me?"
"I think I have a pretty good idea." She said feeling his erection against her. "But, why Is that? I thought you hated me."
He pressed her more firmly into the wall, "Who says I don't."
She wrapped her arms around his neck, "What does that mean?"
//The time is coming
God is saying
You're really happy
You've won the game//
"I tried... I tried so damn hard to get you out of my head, but you kept coming back. I wanted to hate you for it. I wanted to kill you for it…" He nuzzled the skin above the scar on her neck.
"Why don't you hate me? Why haven't you killed me?" She hissed from pleasure, "You've had plenty of opportunities. Why didn't you just go for it?"
He pulled her hair back roughly and made him look her in the eye. "You ask too many damn questions, little girl."
She watched as his face transformed, his eyes glowing and his teeth elongating. "I'm not your puppy so don't get your hopes up thinking he's back."
Seeing his face change she jumped away from him and pulled out a stake, "Then who are you?"
He chuckled, ignoring the question, "You think you're going to hurt me? The only one who can possibly understand you?"
Tears shimmered in her confused eyes. "What are you talking about?"
//The time is coming
A bed of flames
Your life is over and you're to blame//
"You are nothing without me and you know it. Even without a soul you still want me. You still need me. I'm the only one who understood what you did and could handle it." He walked closer to her, "Could your mom? She kicked you out last time. Even your creepy little friends. Can they handle it? Xander would be out with one punch. Anya's useless without her amulet. Oz? Yeah, right. Willow, maybe. She's kinda feisty. Maybe she could give you a few pointers in the bedroom."
Without hesitation she shot out a fist to his face, "You really love hearing yourself talk don't you?"
He recovered quickly with a punch to her face. He kicked her in the stomach sending her sprawling to the ground. "Don't worry baby. We'll have time to help you with your little problem."
He grabbed her and lifted her, his fangs coming towards her neck. Gritting her teeth she head-butted him and moved away from his reach. "I don't think so, Angelus."
"Oh, you're thinking now. I was starting to wonder if the blonde really was from a bottle." He growled out and smacked her across the face.
//The time is coming
You've gone insane
You're feeling happy
You've won the game//
"Fuck you!" She picked up the stake she had dropped on her tumble to the ground.
"Such bad language for such a little girl." He walked closer to her, but prepared for another of her attacks.
"I'll kill you!" She closed the distance and backhanded him.
"Haven't we been over this?" He caught her hand as she moved to strike him again and pulled her to him, so her back was against him. "You may as well give up!"
She elbowed him in the ribs and pushed him away. He growled loudly in annoyance. He wanted this over with.
"You're starting to piss me off, Buffy. You know I don't like to be angry at you!"
Not bothering to respond she just raised her stake and charged towards. Angelus almost smiled at the foolish mistake. Right before the stake got close to his heart Angelus tackled the Slayer to the ground. He pinned both of her arms against the ground of the alley.
Buffy knew she could easily break out of their position, but did she want to? Was he right that she couldn't kill him again? If she let him kill her maybe he would stop terrorizing all of her friends. Because they can't really handle him.
//The time is coming
A bed of flames//
"Is your choice now, lover…" Angelus' large body trapped the small girl beneath him.
Buffy slowly closed her eyes and turned her head, baring her neck to him. He took that as an affirmative and hesitated no longer. He lowered his sharpened canines to her throat and began to feed. He felt her body warm up as it filled with pleasure. He would miss her warmth.
She remembered feeling this way when he had drank the first time, but now it seemed much more intense. Maybe because she thought it was her last. Maybe because it was the start of many more.
Little did she know he was feeling the same thing, but before they could both go over the edge he pulled from her. Weakened and surprised she looked up at him. He said nothing as he bit down it to his wrist and made a wound.
As he held his bleeding wound to her mouth, she whispered, "Why...?"
He looked down at her as she accepted his blood and answered as truthfully as he could.
"I can't get enough of you."
// Your life is over and You're to blame//
AN2: The new character in this part is a guy I know from school. He's really stupid and he hangs around my crush, so that's why I tolerate him. I thought I'd mention this since my crush's name is Angel and when he starts acting like Ricky I call him Angelus. LOL, he has no idea what I'm talking about! Silly, I know but...Chyna Whyte and some people call him Angel Dust, it makes sense together doesn't it!

Willow's eyes shot to Giles's as their yellow color drained out. "What happened? Did it work? It felt so different last time. Giles? What happened?!"
Giles didn't look at her he just stared at the floor, "It didn't work. I don't understand either, but it didn't. It didn't work."
"We have to try again! We have to! Here take this and put it over there." She handed Giles some herbs, "We must have done something wrong! So, we'll have to try again!"
Giles took the herbs, but let them fall to the floor. Willow hurriedly picked them up and was now standing in Giles' face. "What is your problem? I need you to help me!!"

"No!" She broke out of Giles grip and ran out the door. Giles, trying to gather his emotions, ran after her.

"Why don't you hate me? Why haven't you killed me?" She hissed from pleasure, "You've had plenty of opportunities. Why didn't you just go for it?"
He pulled her hair back roughly and made him look her in the eye. "You ask too many damn questions, little girl."
She watched as his face transformed, his eyes glowing and his teeth elongating. "I'm not your puppy so don't get your hopes up thinking he's back."
Seeing his face change she jumped away from him and pulled out a stake, "Then who are you?"
He chuckled, ignoring the question, "You think you're going to hurt me? The only one who can possibly understand you?"
Tears shimmered in her confused eyes. "What are you talking about?"
//The time is coming

Your life is over and you're to blame//
"You are nothing without me and you know it. Even without a soul you still want me. You still need me. I'm the only one who understood what you did and could handle it." He walked closer to her, "Could your mom? She kicked you out last time. Even your creepy little friends. Can they handle it? Xander would be out with one punch. Anya's useless without her amulet. Oz? Yeah, right. Willow, maybe. She's kinda feisty. Maybe she could give you a few pointers in the bedroom."
Without hesitation she shot out a fist to his face, "You really love hearing yourself talk don't you?"
He recovered quickly with a punch to her face. He kicked her in the stomach sending her sprawling to the ground. "Don't worry baby. We'll have time to help you with your little problem."
He grabbed her and lifted her, his fangs coming towards her neck. Gritting her teeth she head-butted him and moved away from his reach. "I don't think so, Angelus."
"Oh, you're thinking now. I was starting to wonder if the blonde really was from a bottle." He growled out and smacked her across the face.
//The time is coming
You've gone insane
You're feeling happy
You've won the game//
"Fuck you!" She picked up the stake she had dropped on her tumble to the ground.
"Such bad language for such a little girl." He walked closer to her, but prepared for another of her attacks.
"I'll kill you!" She closed the distance and backhanded him.
"Haven't we been over this?" He caught her hand as she moved to strike him again and pulled her to him, so her back was against him. "You may as well give up!"
She elbowed him in the ribs and pushed him away. He growled loudly in annoyance. He wanted this over with.
"You're starting to piss me off, Buffy. You know I don't like to be angry at you!"
Not bothering to respond she just raised her stake and charged towards. Angelus almost smiled at the foolish mistake. Right before the stake got close to his heart Angelus tackled the Slayer to the ground. He pinned both of her arms against the ground of the alley.
Buffy knew she could easily break out of their position, but did she want to? Was he right that she couldn't kill him again? If she let him kill her maybe he would stop terrorizing all of her friends. Because they can't really handle him.
//The time is coming
A bed of flames//
"Is your choice now, lover…" Angelus' large body trapped the small girl beneath him.
Buffy slowly closed her eyes and turned her head, baring her neck to him. He took that as an affirmative and hesitated no longer. He lowered his sharpened canines to her throat and began to feed. He felt her body warm up as it filled with pleasure. He would miss her warmth.
She remembered feeling this way when he had drank the first time, but now it seemed much more intense. Maybe because she thought it was her last. Maybe because it was the start of many more.
Little did she know he was feeling the same thing, but before they could both go over the edge he pulled from her. Weakened and surprised she looked up at him. He said nothing as he bit down it to his wrist and made a wound.
As he held his bleeding wound to her mouth, she whispered, "Why...?"
He looked down at her as she accepted his blood and answered as truthfully as he could.
"I can't get enough of you."

AN2: The new character in this part is a guy I know from school. He's really stupid and he hangs around my crush, so that's why I tolerate him. I thought I'd mention this since my crush's name is Angel and when he starts acting like Ricky I call him Angelus. LOL, he has no idea what I'm talking about! Silly, I know but...Chyna Whyte and some people call him Angel Dust, it makes sense together doesn't it!
