Chapter 6

Cordelia: Gunn are you ok?

Gunn: Fine Gunn got up and got closer to Levee.

Hank: Hey Girls I would like you to meet my girlfriend Levee. Hank was slightly drunk.

Levee: Hey.

Buffy was angry and shocked and so was Gunn.

Dawn: Dad isn't she kind of young for you?

Hank: No she's perfect she completes me.

Gunn: Are you sure your talking about Levee?

Levee: Gunn no.

Hank: You know him? Who is he?

Levee: Just an old friend.

Gunn (mumbled): Not that old. Dawn: So dad how long have you and Levee been together?

Hank: About 10 months now.

Dawn: Why haven't you told us us about her?

Cordelia just sat at the bar staring at them.

Outside the club.

Angel is really angry with Connor, all he wants is for Connor to show him respect, he loves his son and he wants the best for him. Connor had been very difilcult lately and Angel wasn't going to tolerate that behavior any longer. Connor was glairing at Angel with extreme anger and pain in his face. Connor was in pain, he was feeling was not only physical pain but emotional as well. Connor felt tears start to roll down his face that made him even angrier he did not want to show Angel he was hurting.

Angel: Connor I love you and I will always love you but just because I love you doesn't mean I'm going to permit you to be disrespectful to me or to my friends. Disobedience is something I will also not tolerate from you anymore. Go wait in the car, I'm going to go and get the others.

Angel went back inside the club while Connor went and stood by the car.

Angel: Guys lets go. Then Angel noticed that they really weren't quit ready to go, he got closer.

Hank remained silent.

Buffy: Dad?

Hank really wanted to change the subject so he did. Hank: Buffy what is Dawn doing in a club? Why are you letting her be in clubs at her age? Buffy I think Dawn should live with me for a while.

Buffy: I'm not letting her be in clubs at her age she came here without me knowing-

Hank: Dawn already sneaks out to clubs! I think she should live with me for a while you just can't handle-

Buffy: What! I'm the one who has been there Dawn ever since mom died.

Dawn: No dad I'm not going to live with you Sunnydale is my home.

Buffy: Dawn's staying with me where she belongs-

Hank: I'm her father.

Buffy: She's staying with me. Dawn lets go.

Buffy and Dawn walk up to Angel and so does Cordelia.

Angel: You guys ready to go?

Hank: Buffy-

Buffy: Lets go.

They exit the club. Gunn soon followed.

As they walked towards the car Dawn saw Connor standing by the car, he looked so hurt.

Angel: Didn't I tell you to wait in the car?

Connor ignored Angel. Connor was not looking forward for the ride home he was especially not looking forward to sit in the car, his bottom still hurt a lot, it felt like it was on fire and he felt so embarrassed.

They made their way into the car, the car was going to be packed, Cordelia sat in the passenger seat and in the back seats Buffy sat in the right side Gunn sat in the middle with Dawn over his lap and Connor sat in the left side looking extremely unconvertible while he was sitting down the pain felt 10 times worse it hurt him so much that he felt tears start to form in his eyes and start to drop one by one he tried to hide it by looking out the window but Dawn noticed it and she felt bad for him.

Buffy: Dawn how could you do this? I trusted you. Dawn: Buffy I'm sorry.

Buffy just stayed quiet and stared out the window.

Once they arrived in the hotel the first thing Connor did was walk towards the stairs.

Angel: Connor.

Connor stopped walking and looked at his father.

Angel: When you get into your room, get changed into the pajamas Cordy gave you.

Connor hated when Angel treated him like a child. Connor continued to walk to his room. Once at his room he did as he was told, he changed into his PJ's, soon after he changed he went to the bathroom to see how bad his bottom was it still hurt him a lot the pain never lessened only at times worsened especially when he was sitting in the car. He pulled the backside of his pajama bottom along with his boxer shorts and turned around with his bottom facing the mirror, he turned his head back to the mirror and he couldn't believe what he saw it was red while staring at his bottom he heard Angel come in, he quickly pulled up the backside of his pajama bottom and boxer shorts.

Angel: What are you doing?

Connor: Nothing.

Angel: Connor we need to talk.

Downstairs in the lobby

Buffy was really upset with Dawn.

Dawn: Buffy I'm sorry-

Buffy: I'm really angry right now we'll talk when I've cooled off a little.

Buffy made her way upstairs to her guest room. Dawn just sat in the lobby's sofa sulking and thinking about Connor and hoped Angel wasn't being to hard on him.

Cordelia: Gunn was that Levee in the club the same Levee I had a vision about?

Gunn: Yeah.

Cordelia: This is too weird and she's Buffy's dad's girlfriend.

Gunn: There's something weird about that girl I can say that for sure.

In the lobby. Buffy made her way back downstairs and sat next to Dawn.

Dawn: Buffy I said I was sorry, besides that I'm worried about dad there's something off about his girlfriend.

Buffy: I know I think ever since he's been with her he's been different.

Upstairs in Connor's room

Angel: What's wrong why do you keep on acting out?

Connor remained silent.

Angel: I guess this is one of your little fazes then, but it won't go unpunished Connor your old enough to know right from wrong. Well you already got part of your punishment in the club the rest of your punishment is since you were already grounded I'm adding on to your last punishments so I'm adding a month, you are not to leave the hotel and anything that is entertaining you are not allowed to do. Do you understand?

Connor: Yes.

Angel: So how's the behind?

Connor: It hurts.

Angel: I hope you learned something from this.

Connor stayed silent.

Angel: I'm sorry I had to do that-

Connor: You had to do that; you didn't have to do that.

Angel: I thought I did, I had no other idea how to handle the situation.

Angel: I never thought parenting would be this difficult.

Connor just glared at Angel.

Angel: Get in bed and go to sleep goodnight.

Angel watched Connor get in bed, Connor laid down on his stomach to go to sleep, there was no way he could sleep on his back his bottom hurt too much, Connor felt miserable. Angel hated being so strict with Connor but Connor gave him no other choice, so Angel is making Connor learn the hard way. As soon as Connor was in bed Angel left his room.
