Part 11
NOTE * I just realized after reading some previous parts... I said Cordelia was Angel's assistant... and then in part 10 I made Cordy work where Buffy works... so let's just say she has two jobs hehe. Her job at the web design company is just a part time job. So sorry for any confusion that might have caused.

Anya showed them a picture of a wedding.
There was a red carpet that lead to the alter. On both sides of it were rows a
white folding chairs. In the back where the bride and flower girls would walk
down, was a white trellis that had red, light yellow and white Iris and
Angel-Wing Begonia flowers on the bottom. Beautiful vines crawled up the
trellis. Alongside the carpet were the roses Buffy and Angel liked.
Buffy whispered, "I'm inlove with
that. It's beautiful."
Angel whispered into her ear, "Not as
beautiful as you. I'd like to rub those flowers over your silky skin and then
make love to you in a bed of roses." Unnoticeable to Anya and the others,
he stroked her thigh lightly with one finger. Buffy blushed.
She whispered back, "What's with the
sudden horniness. Flowers turn you on?" They chuckled. "Hold it in
mister, we're not alone although right now I wish we were so we could--"
Anya coughed for attention, "Ms.
Summers. Mr. Conner. What do you think?"
Buffy sigh, "Um, we love it."
"Great" the wedding planner said,
"for the wedding party... we have excellent caterers. You two seem very
much in love. I'd like to suggest a nice hearts that is made of flowers... which
will be behind the table you site at."
"That's nice." Angel said. He
held onto Buffy's hand tighter.
Buffy added, "On the tables we'd like
a few roses in a vase on a light blue table cloth."
"And for the music we'd like a
quartet. Also when Buffy walks down the aisle we want the quartet to do the
wedding song."
Anya smiled, "Very nice choice.
Will you have any vocal songs?"
"Uh, Sarah McLachlan and Lorne my
partner at work will sing one or two songs." She glanced at Angel. "Is
that all right with you?"
"Yes, as long as Lorne doesn't sing
like my friend Jimmy."
"Lorne has a great voice and he'd
really love to sing for our wedding" she rubbed her hand over her belly,
"and for the baby."
Angel kissed her on her crown and
whispered, "I love you."
Buffy smiled, "I love you too."
Willow was couldn't stop grinning.
She was so happy for them. Willow hoped her and Oz would someday be in as much
love as them. Sure they love each other now, but it's not as deep. They've only
been dating for a month. Things were slowly progressing between them. *I
know Oz and I will be as happy as them some day.* She thought. She
asked Anya, "How much is this going to cost?"
Anya smiled, "$5,500 for everything
you've picked. The quartet, the flowers, the tables, everything."
Joyce frowned, "That's a lot. Buffy
I'm sorry, but do you really think you could really afford this?"
Angel spoke up, "That's all right, I
can. My mom has a special savings account which she saved for the day I
marry." He grinned.
Anya said, "Now, one more thing. The
wedding date!"
Angel asked Buffy, "How soon do you
want to get married?"
She sighed, "Well, I want to be
married before I give birth and I want to marry you before I get huge."
"You know you'll still be beautiful in
a white dress no matter how big you get."
She smiled, "Thanks, I know. So how
about on a July morning?"
"Sounds great. Let's get married July
4th at ten AM."
Anya marked it in her calendar. "Okay,
it's been nice talking to you. We'll have everything booked for you by
tomorrow."
Buffy and Angel got up. Angel shook Anya's
hand, "Thanks a lot."
"Oh you're quite welcome and thanks
for your money."
Willow giggled.
They all walked towards their cars. Willow
said, "That wedding planner sure likes money."
"Who wouldn't? Money is a great thing
to have. Gets you what you want and a nice wedding." Buffy said.
Angel smiled, "But it can't buy you
love."
"No it certainly can't."
Angel whispered, "Let's drop Joyce
off. Then go home, dim the lights, hit the bed and make love."
"Mmm... I can't wait." She kissed
him on the lips.
