Chapter 3: Surprise?
Buffy awoke, once again, to the sensation of being held by two strong arms. Turning over in his arms, she stared at Angel while he slept, he was so calm and peaceful looking. Without meaning to she brushed the hair from his forehead and softly kissed him. She gasped in shock when the arms around her tightened and pulled her in for a deeper kiss. They broke apart when her need for air became apparent.
"When need to go to the library, to tell them about the Judge." She panted, trying to catch her breath and calm her racing hormones that just wanted her to hop back into bed with him, not that she could blame them. Angelus kissed her gently and got out of bed, unashamed of his nudity, and padded over to the bathroom, he began to run a bath and when it was ready he went back and gently picked her up. He settled into the tub with her and began to wash her. When he was finished there was no body part that had not been explored and Buffy wanted nothing more than to go back to bed with him and never let go. She began to wash him and by the time she was done, he was purring like a giant cat and she giggled. "What?"
"Nothing." She said grinning, as he started to purr again. He smirked and then he started to tickle her, "Tell me." She shrieked, "You. laugh. were. laugh. purring!" she managed to get out. He stopped for a moment, considered it and then went back to tickling her. She twisted free and splashed him with the water, Angelus grabbed her and kissed her, when she began to relax into the kiss, he quickly pushed her under the water.
Meanwhile. at the library.
"Am I the only one concerned about Buffy? I mean Hello! She wasn't in school today! What if the Judge got her?" Willow exclaimed, as she paced back and forth, before settling down on Oz's lap. He held her tightly and gazed around the room. Xander, Cordelia, Giles, and Jenny exchanged looks and then returned their gaze to the red-head.
"We're not saying we're not concerned, we're are just saying that Buffy can take care of herself and if." "I can't believe you people! My friend is out there and she could be in serious trouble. now I'm going there and."
"Going where?" Buffy asked, as she and Angelus strolled in.
"Buffy!" exclaimed everyone, except Oz, who just raised an eyebrow and nodded.
"And I repeat Going where?" "To save you or at least some of us where." Stated the redhead throwing a look at everyone else, except for Oz. "Well, we were going to, it just. she's here now. and. shutting up now." Stated Xander, as Willow cut him of with a look. "Oh!" said the blonde, then elbowed her boyfriend as he started to laugh.
All eyes were drawn to him and the immediately took in his new appearance, which included his trade mark leather pants and blood red shirts. The girls started to drool and the guys glared at him, Angelus smirked at them.
"So, the Judge.?" "No assembly required, he's active." Buffy and Angelus shared a look, as they thought back to their night.
"Oh! Well, where have you been?" "Uhh.." " We got out and had to hide, then we got caught in the rain and had to go back to my house to change and here we are." Angelus said, covering up for his mate, as she started a shade of red. Willow looked at Buffy with an inquiring look, before Buffy gave her the look that said she would explain all later.
"And how long did it take you to change? What have you. Oh!" Xander exclaimed, as he finally caught on to what really happened last night. "Buffy! How could you? You slept with a corpse! That is sick and disgusting, your nothing but a." he was quickly cut off as Angelus crossed the room with unnatural speed and decked him, hard enough to toss him through the window of Gile's office. Cordelia quickly rushed to his side, "Are you okay?" she asked. "Ya, as soon as the room stops spinning." "Good!" Cordelia said, right before she punched him in the nose, "I can't believe you! It's always about Buffy and Willow! When are you going to realize what is in front of you?" She turned and stormed off. Xander quickly following her.
Buffy eyed Angelus, quickly realizing that something wasn't right there. But she turned her attention to the matter at hand and how to deal with the Judge.
