Okay People, Now take a deep breath and repeat after me, "Kelly loves
Connor. She will not do anything to him. I will finish the entire chapter
before I write her an angry review." Okay now that I've calmed you down or
totally freaked you out, Please read the entire chapter and I know you'll
review. Kelly loves Connor.
^^^^^^^^^^^
That night on patrol, Connor couldn't help being nervous. It's not easy hanging with your dad when you know that he's supposed to kill you. He had left a message on Tomorrow's phone. The girls must have gone out to rent movies.
"Doing okay over there? You seem kind of out of it." Angel asked.
"No dad, I'm fine, just lost in thought."
"Well you need to stay focused on patrol anything could come at you."
"Dad behind you." Connor screamed as a hooded figure jumped onto his father's back, grabbed the arm, and injected him with something from a syringe before quickly running away before Connor could reach them. "Dad are you okay." Connor asked leaning over his father who wasn't moving. Without a word, Angel vamped out, and before he could realize that the injection had turned his father back into Angelus, Connor was being sucked dry. As Connor was losing consciousness, he heard a scream and loud fighting noises. Then silence as he felt his head being gently lifted into someone's lap and the extreme ecstasy as he felt something warm dribble down his throat. A soft hand was ruffling his hair as a matching soft voice prayed, "Please be okay."
^^^^^^^^^^
"How's he doing?" Cordy asked as Tomorrow came downstairs.
"He's still not showing any sign of response. God, I should never have left him alone or at least not have left my phone. He tried to get a hold of me, to warn me that they were going out. By the time, I got back from Blockbuster, heard the message, and ran out the door, I was too late." Tomorrow said collapsing onto the couch next to her father and crying.
"Pet, you did everything you could." Spike held his daughter comfortingly. He knew what it was like to face losing someone you love.
"But what if my blood wasn't vampiric enough? What if I didn't turn him and there's just a dead body upstairs?" She asked through her tears.
"Then I kill Peaches myself" Spike assured her.
"Go ahead," Angel said appearing in the doorway. "Don't worry about me. I was injected with some 'pure happiness' potion that's already worn off."
"We're not worried about you," Tomorrow snapped wiping the tears out of her eyes and standing to face him. "We're worried about him. How could you be so stupid as to go out alone together when you knew about the prophecy?"
"Pet" Spike warned.
"No dad, if this was us, you would have kept as many people between us as you could for exactly this reason." Turning back to Angel, "I hope you can live with the fact that you killed your son. That even though I gave him blood, he might still be dead."
"Oh I think dead is an understatement" Connor said coming down the stairs.
