Chapter 2- The truth behind those eyes

Buffy's Twisted in her bed, as if her body had a fever and was trying to shake it off, but it was more like her trying to shake off the events earlier that day. She knew that in the morning it would be like any other day. Life would go on without him. Despite how much she wished it wouldn't. It would be hard she thought, passing his house each day, going to school with him. And she dreaded the long talk her and her mother would have about her little breakdown last night. Ugh could things be any worse' her thoughts flowed freely causing traffic for any sentiment of peace and calmness. And she'd have to watch him, suddenly she heard something in the trees. Startled she shot up in confusion. Well at least that cleared her mind of Angel. Opps.. See even my distractions make me think of him. She settled back down to only be woken up again but this time but the voice of a boy.

" Buffy", he nudged her arm looking at her as though she was a very delicate creature. " Are you awake?"

She sat upright and yawned a bit. " Well I am now" she pouted that once cute now sexy pout she had inherited from her mother. " What are you doing here? Have you come to hurt me even more or just to poke and laugh?" He loved how she put things and couldn't help but smirk. " Oh so you think this is funny do you. And who gave you the permission to sneak into my bedroom. For all you know I could sleep naked!" His eyes sorta bulged a little then he regained his senses.

" Firstly I always use the window, Secondly I don't want to hurt you at all, Thirdly I know you sleep with big flannel pajamas and mr. Gourdo!"

She seized Mr. Gourdo from the end of the bed and glared at him. " She we are too connected. So why are you here?" She looked away.

"Because I saw you crying and hate it when you cry." He admitted, playing with the hem of his leather jacket.

" Why would you care I am just a child not worthy of your attention" She stated knowing she struck a chord.

" I do care Buffy I will always care and that's what go me upset."

" What! I may be drawing a point blank here but you are being all sorts of cryptic and my 14 year old brain cant grasp what you are saying.

" I was trying to drive you away. Buffy I wanted ou to hate me."

" Well good job!" He looked at her worried and then she let out a small laugh.

" I don't hate you I never can hate you Angel. Never." She suddenly stepped out of her bed, in a tank and boxer shorts, edging her way over to him. HE was sorta of backing up but came to a halt when she put her hands on his shoulders and pushed up bringing her face to his eye level. She kissed him delicately still not knowing if he would except it but all her doubts were swept away when he grabbed her forcefully and kissed her more passionately then she had started the smooching fest.

She draped her arms around him and just stood their embracing Angel, taking in what had happened. He let her go and looked up at her. She blushed and turned her head.

"See, I could never hate you." She grinned causing him to laugh a bit.

" Buffy I."He started but released a feeling of complete satisfaction.

" That was what I have been waiting forever since I hit 12." She daydreamed. After an awkward silence Angel sat on the edge of the bed and kissed her one last time.

" Buffy I am moving to L.A." He didn't mean it to just come out but it had.

Buffy looked at him in disbelief. He can't do this to her not now not when she was just getting what she wanted. She finally had the chance to be his and him to be hers and he was moving.

" How could you let me kiss you, to only find out that you were moving away!" Her eyes began to fill with tears. Angel hugged her and he started to cry a bit as well.

" I'm sorry, I am so sorry, I just thought if you hated me you wouldn't care and it wouldn't hurt to much." He looked away. She took his head and turned it to her.

" Well congratulations except now, I don't hate you I love you!" She almost shouted this but reminded herself that her mother was in the next room. She walked away and paced back and forth.

" Now what happens?" She asked, " You call me I call you, you get a new girlfriend while I dwell on you and you move on well I stay stuck in the mud?"

"No it won't be like that. Please Buffy, I promise you if you wait for me. Bye your sixteenth birthday I will come back to you, as a man, Free to live where I want, and we will and can be together, forever Buffy Summers."

" Angel I am fourteen I don't know who I want to live with forever and ever, I don't' know if I can even wait that long and never have a boyfriend, knowing that you might just find someone else." She didn't know how to react.

" That's fine if you have moved on when I come back to you I will understand but no matter what I will return to you. I promise you, I love you as a best friend and as a girlfriend."

" I love you too Angel. I always have." She stared and began to cry.

" Don't be sad. Be happy that we will soon be together."

Buffy walked over to him and kissed him soft on the lips before turining on the radio. The song that played made buffy and Angel feel the tragedey of their situation but made Buffy feel confident he'd stand by here.

Oh, why you look so sad?

Tears are in your eyes

Buffy turned as Angel got off the bed and headed for the window.

"I love you and I will wait for you Angel. Angel,." she paused.

" Yes?" He smiled at her,

"Goodbye" She said,

" not goodbye Buffy, See you later," HE smiled and then he was gone leaving her in total shock of all that happened that Wednesday. She went to her bed and sighed,

" Me and Wednesdays I tell you it's a love hate relationship" she smiled and climbed into bed.
