Song- Who Needs The World? By Nick Carter
(Well, since I got some reviews I'll give you one more chapter then I'll add chapters to my other stories. Thanks for the review gidgetgirl they really help and everyone who else reviewed I thank you too because I wouldn't write this if it wouldn't have been for you. The two teenagers baby sit two kindergarteners how could this end up? Also a big surprise at the end of the chapter, some of you might not like.)
"Rain, Con this is Corrine and Mrs. Knowles her mommy." Mac pulled a blond headed girl with emerald green eyes and woman who looked in her mid 30's with sandy blond hair and brown eyes farther into the lobby to the teenagers.
"I believe Connor and me met yesterday." Mrs. Knowles nodded. "It's nice to meet you though Rain." She shook the teenager girl's hand.
"You too, is there anything Corrine likes to do best?" She asked with interest.
"She loves the park. Thanks fore having her, I'll be back at 3:30 to pick her up."
"Wouldn't you like to meet Mac's and my parents?" Connor looked behind him as Angel, Kay, and Darla came downstairs.
"Of course, I'm a forgetful person sometimes." She laughed.
"Dad, this is Mrs. Knowles she's Corrine's mother, the girl Kenzie was talking about."
"My name is Laney, I really appreciate you letting my daughter come over." She smiled graciously her manners showing why she was in a black skirt, white shirt and a black business jacket also holding a brief case.
"Hi, my name is Angel this is my fiancé' Kay, Mac's mother and this is Connor's mother Darla." Angel hugged Kay.
"Hm...I'm confused you had Mac and Connor with two different women were you and Darla married before you and Kay got together?" Laney looked confused.
"No, actually Darla and I were high school sweethearts our senior year everything fell apart when she was pregnant because we weren't expecting Connor so, we decided to be friends, we thought it would be easier. I met Kay right out of high school and we fell in love we knew we were going to get married especially after she had Mac and we are deciding to tie the knot in a few months." Angel gave an unneeded sigh, feeling stupid for having to lie.
"O, forgive me for being rude. You all live here?" She looked around as Fred, Buffy, Spike, Gunn, Wesley, Gabby, and Ecks walked into the lobby from the kitchen.
"Um...no, Buffy and Will are visiting us for a while," Kay pointed to the blond vamp and the blond slayer who were holding hands. "Gabby and Wes have their own place," She then pointed to the ex-watcher and her best friend. "But, Charles, Fred, and Ecks live with us, we adopted Ecks." She pointed to the tall, muscular man, the little Texan girl, and the boy with the bleached hair. "Darla lives here for Connor, and Rain lives here with her dad who hasn't been feeling well lately." Kay put her hand over her belly.
"Basically a little family." Darla gave a sweet smile.
"Everyone this is Laney and her daughter Corrine, Mac invited Corrine to hang out." Angel said to the bunch in the lobby who was kind of just staring.
I stare at your face
Into your eyes
Outside, there's so much passing us by
All of the sounds
All of the sights
"Hello." Everyone replied back.
"All right, Corrine I'll be back at 3:30. Have fun and be good, love you." Laney kissed Corrine feeling strange leaving her here.
"Is daddy coming with you?" Corrine asked as her mother walked towards the door.
"Yes, see you all later. Nice to meet...all of you." She smiled and left.
"Angel, that was the worst thing that could ever happen." Buffy giggled.
"We'll take Corrine and Mac upstairs." Rain raised her eyes.
Rain, Connor, Corrine, and Mac stopped halfway up the steps when a teenage girl walked into the hotel. She was a little taller than Rain, with long brown hair, brown eyes, she was in a long jean skirt, and a white tee with Curious George on it. She had a cut over her left eyebrow, bruises on her arm, and her right arm was bleeding.
"Kali what are you doing here?" Ecks walked towards the girl.
"Something attacked us, they wanted me."
"Take Mac and Corrine upstairs." Angel looked at the two teens.
They obeyed taking the kids upstairs. "Who attacked you?" Ecks asked when they were gone.
"Some demon, he said the War was beginning." Kali walked over to her cousin. "He killed my mom, dad, and Paul." Tears escaped the girl's eyes.
"Why did you come here?" Ecks questioned his cousin. "I mean, it's great to see you in all but who are you are going to stay with?"
"I was going to stay with grams." Kali looked up surprised.
"Kali, she's gone."
"Is she...dead?"
"I don't know. Angel, can I ask you a favor?" Ecks looked at the broody vamp.
"She may but, just fill her in." Angel nodded.
Over the earth
And Under the sky
Too much cold
And too much rain
Too much heartache to explain
"Who was the girl?" Mac and Corrine looked at the teenagers.
"We don't know Kenzie." Connor picked her up.
"You guys want to play a game?" Rain asked the kindergarteners.
"Yeah!" They both shouted.
"Corrine...we're waiting...Corrine." An eerie voice whispered in the hallway.
"Who's there?" Corrine grabbed onto her blond ponytail.
"What you talking about Corrine?" Rain touched the girl's shoulder.
"Somebody just said my name." She looked up at the slayer confused.
"I didn't hear anything, did you Connor?" Rain turned to The Destroyer who held his little sister.
"What did you ask?" He turned to the two.
"Hear anyone call Corrine's name?"
"No, maybe she's just imagining things." He shook his head continuing down that hall to Rain's room.
"See, maybe it's your imagination." Rain spread out her arms for the blond to climb into.
Corrine accepted and climbed into the older girl's arms. "Let's...just go." She rested her head on Rain's shoulder.
The four played Trouble in Rain and Mac's room. Rain had found it in a box when she had taken some of her stuff from her Summer's family. Mac and Corrine yawned as they finished the game.
"Maybe you two should lie down for a nap." Rain stood up from her place on the floor stretching.
"You'll stay with us won't you?" Corrine stood quickly.
"If you want us too we will." She picked up the small child setting her on the top bunk. "Go ahead lay down, Connor and I'll will be on the floor." She smiled and Corrine lay down.
Mac climbed onto her bunk. "Will you tell us a story Con?" The little girl asked her older brother.
"Sure I guess, it's about a girl and guy..."
"Daddy already told me that one." Mac sighed. "Rain, do you have any good stories?" She looked at the brunette standing next to her brother.
"Um...let's see," Rain grabbed the chair from the desk, turned it around and sat down. "Not really but I could read you a book." The slayer shrugged.
"That's fine, read Sleeping Beauty please?" The little pleaded.
"Connor hand me the book so I can read it." Rain pointed to the book on the dresser and Connor handed it to her.
As Rain read the book the two children fell asleep. Connor tapped her shoulder and she stopped smiling at them both. "I feel like a father." He whispered. She just nodded not looking at him. "Are you ok?" He asked.
"I'm fine." She growled.
He looked away not wanting to get in more of an argument but he wondered why she was angry with him. He lied down on the floor not talking to her. She sat in the chair looking at Mac's small body. As 10 minutes passed she looked over at Connor who was so comfortable he had fallen asleep, she longed to go and lay down with him. She shook her head, he didn't love her why should he? She was a pathetic person, Casey was such a better person. He loved Casey and not her because Casey was so much better than she it didn't matter what he said that's what she knew.
Who needs the world when I've got you
Switch off the sun, the stars and the moon
I've all I need inside of this room
Who needs the world when I've got you
Later that afternoon...
"What's down there?" The 4 had just gotten back from the park and Corrine had wanted to explore the hotel. They had just walked past the basement door, which was open.
"That's where we keep supplies." Connor looked at Rain who looked like she was about to burst out laughing for his lie.
"O, mommy and daddy don't like when I go in the basement." Corrine shook her head in a no movement.
"Mommy and daddy like that I go down in the base..." Mac was saying before Connor tapped her lightly on the top of her head. "I want some ice cream, how about you Corrine?" She changed the subject.
"Yeah, sounds fun." The other girl chimed in.
"Well, let's hurry because your mom and dad will be here soon." Rain smiled holding the two girl's hands walking into the kitchen followed by Connor. The slayer opened the fridge finding an assortment of ice cream. It was something Kay bought every time she went shopping because Rain and Mac loved it. "Ok Mac I know you want Strawberry, Connor is Cookie Dough, what would you like Corrine? We have Strawberry, Cookie Dough, Chocolate, Vanilla, and Mint Chocolate Chip." She turned pulling out the Strawberry, Cookie Dough, and Chocolate, which was for herself.
"Vanilla please." The girl said politely.
Rain pulled out the Vanilla, Connor grabbed bowls and spoons, and Mac got the ice cream scope. Angel came into the kitchen. "Ice cream huh?" He looked at them.
"Yeah, would you like some Mint Chocolate Chip?" Rain asked scooping some Vanilla into a bowl for Corrine.
"Maybe later." He leaned on the counter.
"What's the matter dad?" Connor handed Corrine her bowl.
"Just a little stressed."
"You're sounding like a human...being." Rain started getting quieter when she got to human.
"Corrine, your mom and dad are here honey." Darla walked into the kitchen.
"All right, I'm coming." She got up and they all followed her to the lobby.
"Cameron, this is Angel he is Mac's dad and Kay is her mother. This is my husband Cameron." Laney introduced a man in some tan slacks and a green button up shirt.
"Nice to meet you all, hey honey." He picked up Corrine. He had blond hair, dull green eyes, was about as tall as Angel maybe an inch shorter, and he wasn't very muscular either.
"Hello, this is Connor my son and Rain is um..." Angel looked at the brown-headed slayer. "She's my son's girlfriend they're just in a fight right now." He nodded.
"Nice to meet you both." Cameron smiled.
"You too, your daughter is wonderful." Rain smiled at the small girl.
"Well, we have to go. I'm sure we'll see each other again." Laney looked at her gold watch.
"Bye Mac, see ya at school." Corrine waved.
"Thanks, for having her." Cameron followed his wife with the blond girl in his arms.
I walk on the street
Talk in the dark
I see people, strangers, falling apart
I open my arms
Try to be true
Seems my only truth is you
Am I wrong or am I right?
All I want is you tonight
Evening....
"Angel, we have patrolling to do." Kay walked into their bedroom.
"Well you shouldn't go, let's send the kids to do it." Angel walked into Connor's room were Hailie, Casey, Kyle, Ecks, Connor, and Rain sat talking. "I need you all to go patrolling." Angel looked at Connor and Rain.
"All right, I'm up for kicking baddies as...butts." Rain stood up smiling.
"Kyle and I can't we have to leave in a bit anyway." Hailie grabbed her boyfriend's hand.
"Ok, so Ecks, Casey, Connor, and me will go make sure most people are safe." The slayer left the room heading to her own.
"Thank you Rain and please be careful." Angel smiled as the teenagers went downstairs.
"Ecks and Casey will take stakes, Rain you take the crossbow, and I'll get a sword." Connor opened the wooden weapons case and handed everyone his or her weapons.
"Let's go, I can't wait to kill some suckers." Ecks smiled lighting a small fireball in his hand.
"Just be careful." Connor looked at the group.
"Careful is my middle name." Casey smiled at Connor, Rain glared at her.
Who needs the world when I've got you
Switch off the sun, the stars and the moon
I've all I need inside of this room
Who needs the world when I've got you
The four teenagers walked down a dark alley as it started to sprinkle. "Looks, like we should head back." Casey looked at the raindrops as they hit her arm.
"No, vamps don't mind the rain." Rain turned to look at the girl.
"Ok, sorry miss know-it-all." Casey shook her head.
"Come on guys, let's not fight." Ecks looked between the two girls.
"Let's stay focused Rain." Connor touched her shoulder.
"Why are you blaming just me?" Rain turned towards her first love with fury in her eyes.
"I'm not, it's just I know you would be more likely to throw the first punch." He shrugged.
"You mean like this." Rain hit Connor in the stomach with all her warrior strength.
"What ...was that... for?" Connor grabbed his stomach in pain.
"I don't know, maybe all the pain inside of me." She kicked him in the chin and his head flew back.
"Stop it, you psycho!" Casey pushed Rain.
"Why don't you stay out of this backstabber!" The slayer turned around pure angry pumping through out her body.
Casey attacking Rain gave Connor enough to regain himself, by time Rain turned back to him he was able to gain strength to kick her in the stomach. The curly headed teenage girl stumbled back a ways. "I see you're a little angry too." She looked up at Connor and smiled.
"Just a little." He laid down his sword.
"Then this will be so much easier." Rain laid down the crossbow.
The two ran at each other, Connor got the upper hand and tackled Rain to the ground landing on top.
Who needs the stars so bright?
And the grass so green?
And the morning light?
Who needs the wind to blow
And the tide to rise
Who needs it?
I don't know, I don't know
"Why don't you understand I still love you?" Connor held Rain's shoulders while straddling her waist.
"Because I'm not good enough." Rain rolled them over so she was on top, the rain fell harder, and she knocked him hard against the cement. "You can't love me, I'm not like Casey she's so much better admit it!" Small tears formed in the lining of the slayer's eyes.
"Nobody could ever be better then you for me." Connor pushed his angel off of him. "Rain, you touch me in more ways then anyone ever has, I need and want you." He stood there getting soaked by the rain.
"I feel the same," Rain went to trip him but he jumped. "It's not going to fix itself though." She went in for a punch to his face but he caught it.
"Then we'll fix it, together." Connor whispered into her ear, his breath sending a tingle down her back.
"Together, you and me?" She turned looking him in the eye.
"Yeah, like we should be." He grabbed her hand pulling her closer.
"I feel like the world is gone now, and it's just you and me." She smiled as he leaned down placing his lips on hers, in the rain the two champions kissed their way back together not seeing the dark figure watch from above.
"Perfect, absolutely perfect." The figure jumped onto another building. "The war is just beginning."
Who needs the world when I've got you
Switch off the sun, the stars and the moon
I've all I need inside of this room
Who needs the world when I've got you
(Yes, they got back together after beating the crap out of each other, I hope none of you are too mad because I know some of you don't like Rain and Connor together but in my mind they belong together. Also, will Angel and Kay still get married now that Darla is back? Who's the dark figure and what's the war? Please review!)
