"So how is the work coming?" Jason asked as he came in to the library with Kate.

"Very slowly." Giles said annoyed.

"Why what's wrong?" Kate asked.

"Well some of us have never worked together or haven't worked together in a long time." Cordy said.

"We're also having a problem with deciding who exactly is in charge here." Wesley said.

"Those two are, the rest of are working hard." Fred said.

Kate looked at Anya and was shocked she was actually working.

Anya saw her glance. "Yes, I'm working don't look so socked, Kate. Cordy and Fred are helping me."

"I didn't say a word." Kate said smiling.

"So can we help?" Jason asked.

"We got it all covered." Xander said.

"Well I'm not so sure of that." Anya said. "You know this is for them, they could help."

"No, it would be better if they didn't. That way we don't have to worry about them telling their parents." Giles said.

"We wouldn't." Jason said.

"Not purposely but get in one screaming match with your mother and our cover is blown." Giles said.

"Fine come on Kate, let's find something else to do." Jason said leading her out of the library.

"What's your real reason for getting them out of here?" Wesley asked Giles.

"If we find something about it, then it will upset Jason and Kate and Buffy, Willow or Oz will know something is up. Plus Jason needs to have another dream and he never has them we he's upset." Giles said as he closed the book he was reading.

"So what do we now?" Willow asked Buffy as she took a seat at her table.

"Let's see we tried screaming, we tried grounding, we tried threatening them, can you do a spell on them?" Buffy asked smiling.

"Yeah right, I'm going to put a spell on my daughter, don't think so remember I learned the hard way about that." Willow said thinking about Tara.

"Right, well I'm stumped on what to do." Buffy said with a sigh.

"Me too."

"What about Oz?"

"He's thought about killing your son but that's as far as he's gotten."

"Yeah that's not a good idea, but I have thought about it to."

"Um Buffy can I ask you something, I know you're not going to want to talk about?" Willow asked hesitantly.

"Let me guess Angel or Angel?" Buffy asked annoyed.

"Well do you think you can talk about him?"

"Why not? I've got nothing better to do."

"Ok, what is like having him back?"

"It's painful, I want to hold him, kiss him, love him, be with him but I know I can't. I know that I stay away from him."

"I'm sorry."

"I know what happens when we are together and I don't want that to happen again so I guess I'm left with no choice but to not be with him."

"It's hard isn't?"

"Yeah one of the hardest things I've ever done."

"Harder than lying to him and Jason about him being the father?"

"I didn't lie."

Willow looked at her.

"Technically I didn't. Will, you know there is really no proof that he is the father. I was not even with him at the time when Jason was conceived."

"Then who's the father?"

"I don't know! I know it's not Riley and he other than the one night fling I had in collage are the only people I've slept with."

"So you assumed it was Angel?"

"I… I don't know I think I want it to be Angel on some level."

"But he would have had to be human to conceive a child."

"I know that and he wasn't was he?" Buffy said confused.

"Why are we going over here?" Kate asked as they walked toward to mansion.

"Because I want to see my father." Jason said.

"Maybe that's not the best idea."

"I don't care what kind of an idea it is. It's what I'm doing."

"I can see that but remember your mother told you he wasn't your father."

"She was lying. She had to of been lying. I know she was lying." Jason said trying to convince him self.

"And what if she wasn't?"

"Then I… I don't know what I'm going to do."

"Maybe you need to think about that before you see him."

"No, I'm going this with out with out you, Kate."

"With me, I guess." Kate said nervously.
