It had been a week, and Cordy and the others were now leaving. Buffy was relived. She loved having the company, but just wanted to get things back to normal. Angel was staying. He had told her the other night, if you want me to stay I will. She told him she wanted him to stay, but only if he wanted to.

He stayed. She knew he would, never questioned it too much. He made her happy.

"Are you ready yet?" He asked her. They were getting ready to patrol, they had been doing it together every night sense they had last went out.

"Yeah, let me go say goodnight to Dawn first." Buffy told him. He nodded and went to wait outside. Buffy went up stairs to find her younger sister, who was getting ready for bed.

"Why are you going to bed so early?" Buffy asked her sister.

"I'm not." Dawn replied. "I'm just getting ready early, I want to watch a movie with Willow and Tara." She explained.

"Remember, bed by 11." Buffy reminded her.

"I know." Dawn groaned. She started to brush her long hair. "Arn't you and Angel going to patrol?" She asked.

"Yeah, I just wanted to say goodnight to you first."

"Because you will be spending most the night making out with him, and won't be home before I have to be in bed." Dawn teased.

"No, we will be patrolling until after you have to be in bed." Buffy corrected her sister.

"Patroling, making out call it whatever you want, you do the same thing."

"Dawn." Buffy gave her a warning.

"All right."

"Okay I'll see you in the morning." Buffy kissed her sister on the forehead. "Love you."

"Love you too." Dawn replied. Buffy shut the door and went downstairs to find Angel. She found him waiting for her outside.

"Hey." He greeted her when she walked out. She turned to him and smiled.

"Hey yourself."

"Ready?" He asked her.

"I was born ready."

He smirked. "I know." They were quite after that, walking through the streets and cemetery. It was a quite night, people were indoors and the sky was clear. Finaly Buffy gave up and sat down waiting at a grave.

"Mr. Hanson died 3 days ago, from blood loss." Buffy told him. Angel just nodded and sat down next to her, wrapping an arm around her, causing her to react and crawl into his lap. They sat like that for a while, not really talking, but just enjoying the others company. There moment however was deserved, from the rising vamp, who was quickly staked by Buffy before he had even finished rising.

"About time." Buffy commented. After that they continued to other places vampires liked to hang out. This was forgotten soon though with the need to make out that always infected them when they were out, alone, at night.

It was late when they finally got home. Buffy got into the shower to wash the layer of vampire dust off her body. During there make out session a group of about 10 vampires decided to interrupt them. They finished them off in no time and then continued to 'patrol'.

Buffy finished her shower and changed into her new nighty she had bought when she had went shopping with Anya. She looked at her reflection in the mirror as she brushed her hair. Buffy didn't think she was very pretty, she thought she looked kind of run down. She finished with her hair and brushed her teeth.
She wanted to know what Angel's reaction to her choice of night clothes were. She finished and left the bathroom and went to her room.

He was reading a book when she walked in. He looked up at her when she came in.

"H-Hey." He greeted her, raking her eyes up and down her body. She smiled, he liked it. He stuttered, he liked it.

"Ready for bed?" He crocked, still eyeing her.

"Uh-huh." Buffy almost purred out. Angel pulled the covers down and got under them. Buffy crawled in next to him, and got comfortable, laying halfway on him. Angel turned the lamp off and wrapped his arms around her. She moved a little more, causing Angel to let out a slight moan. Buffy blushed in the darkness as she realized that she could feel his hardness, and was he hard. Buffys breathing got harder. She could feel him, it had been awhile, she had been younger, 18. She pulled herself up and started to kiss him. Grining her hips into his. He moaned again, between there kisses.

There kisses became more passionately, Harder and more urgently. Angel ran his hands up and down her back, and then slipped his hands underneath the top, and continued touching her bare skin. As much as they both wanted this, she wasn't ready. Angel stared to calm it down, kissing her with more loving then lusting kisses. He was sure she wasn't the happiest person right now, he too was very aroused but it wasn't the right time yet.

"Not yet baby." He whispered to her, running his hands though her hair. She whimpered, at his request. They slowed down there kisses until they stooped and Buffy snuggled down in Angels chest to sleep. She could still feel the hardness of his arousal and to control the urge to grind into him.

"I love you." He told her, kissing her head. He brought his hands up and ran them through her hair, playing with the still damp strands.

"I love you too." She replied.

Angel knew he was dreaming, as he listened to the voice.

"He that watches her in the night shall protect her in the light." He heard but had no idea what was going on. A form appeared in front of him.

"Hello." He greeted Angel. "Finaly it is time to meet you." He looked human, but was white, almost like a vampire.
"Why am I here?" Angel asked.

"The Slayer needs you." He told Angel.

"I'm here with her." Angel replied, if this was all that they were telling him, they were a bit late.

"Yes, you are. But she still needs you. And even though she appears to get stronger, she is still week inside."

"Buffy is strong."

"Yes, but what is coming up for her will be very hard on her."

"What?"

"Just wait, you will see in time. Just love her." He disappeared a moment later, and the voice from earlier again said. "He that watches her in the night shall protect her in the light." Then he woke up.
