A/N: Sorry about the shortness, but it's test week and if I fail these
tests
there will be no new chapters for along time, so please no flames about the
shortness.
Chapter 10: 'Adult Conversation'
"Oh my God, there you guys are! We've been so worried!" Buffy yelled and ran over to hug them. "Now, where the hell were you guys?!"
"We left a note." Dawn explained.
"Where? None of us saw a note..." Angel said.
"You guys are all blind aren't you? Follow me." They all followed Dawn into
the kitchen. Dawn walked over to the fridge, pointed at a note, picked it up and read aloud.
"'Dear Xander. We went for a quick patrol so don't worry. We'll be back in a bit. Dawn & Connor'. See? We were considerate."
"Yes Dawn, because you know just how much I love you going on patrol..." Buffy said sarcastically.
Dawn was thinking of a way to get the attention off herself. "We saw Spike,
he's talking to invisible people again."
"Oh, that's interesting..." Buffy said.
"Yes, he's been talking to 'Adam' and 'they're coming', whatever that means."
"Yeah, I heard Spike was all soulful now..." Angel said.
"Oh? And how did you find out?" Buffy asked.
"What? You're not they only person to have demon connections!" Angel said.
"So, one of your friends heard there was another vampire with a soul and told you?" Buffy said.
"Um, that obvious?"
"Sorry, but yes."
Dawn started to sneak towards the back porch and nudged Connor to follow then the slipped out the door with out anyone noticing as the conversation continued.
"Well Buffy, the reason I came was because I might know a way to find out what 'from beneath you, it devours' means." Angel said.
"How?" Buffy asked excitedly.
"Well, I know I've heard it before, so I was thinking that maybe Willow could do some kind of memory jogging spell," Angel said, looking at Willow.
"I can't. I'm sorry, I can't." Willow said, and then ran up to her room.
"What did I say?"
"Last year was a tough year for all of us. This guy, Warren, shot Willow's girlfriend, Tara. Willow had been high on the Majicks for a while, and after Tara died she went berserk. She killed Warren, she tried to kill Giles, Anya, Xander, me. She even tried to turn Dawn back into The Key. She trapped Dawn
and me in this under-ground cavern. Angel, she tried to destroy the world to make the pain go away! Xander stopped her, but it's been so hard on all of us..." Buffy explained.
Angel sat there and stared. "Willow tried to destroy the world? Willow Rosenberg, Willow?"
Buffy nodded.
Dawn and Connor sat on the back porch, just holding hands and talking.
"God, that must have been hard growing up in Quortoth. I mean no people around AND a hell dimension?"
"Actually, this world is harder. I grew up in Quortoth, this world is different..." Connor said.
"I'm sorry, that must be hard."
"Well, it's gotten a little simpler since I met you." he said with a smile.
'He has the best smile,' Dawn thought, and for the third time this night, they leaned in for a kiss. But this time their lips finally met. It started
out as a normal kiss, then slowly got more passionate, until the door to the back porch swung open. They both pulled away quickly, hoping whoever came through the door didn't see. They were in luck.
"Dawn, Connor, there you are!" Buffy said.
"I pretty much figured that there was going to be an 'adult conversation' so we decided to save you the time of kicking us out," Dawn said, quickly thinking on her feet.
"Okay well, we're done with the 'adult conversation'. Why don't you two come in, it's getting cold out side..." Buffy said.
"Did you find them?" Angel asked, coming next to Buffy.
"Yeah, they figured that we were going to kick them out of the 'adult conversation', so they decided to save us the time."
"Oh okay."
And with that they all went inside.
"Dawn, it's past your bed time," Buffy said.
"Okay fine, whatever..." Dawn said and walked slowly up the stairs and ran to her bedroom. Then she got out her diary and started to write.
