Part 5
"So mom was like, how's school and are you doing well? And I was like, mom, I'm doing fine. And she goes all, I saw that boy last night why didn't you tell me you were seeing someone, Buffy, my parenting books said we need to communicate. And I was like, mom!."
"Buffy, when I asked how are you, I was just saying hi," Faith told her as they sat waiting for Spike and Angelus. "Oh, sorry," Buffy said.

"So mate, what are you gonna do now?" Spike asked as they finish their long conversation.
"I don't know man," Angelus replied.
"Well after every thing you told me, I think I'm going to heave," Spike said laughing.
"Shut up Spike," he growled.
"Maybe you should tell her," Spike said getting up and walking to his girlfriend. The question was could he tell her.

"Hey," Buffy said sitting down next to Angelus.
"Hey," he said back. She put her arms around his neck.
"What are thinking about?" she asked.
"Nothing," he answered her. He pulled her onto his lap. "What are you doing to night?"
"Nothing that I know of, why?"
"You owe me a date, woman," he said.
"Yes sir, I believe I do," she said giggling.
"What were you talking to Spike about?" she asked.
"Nothing. It was nothing," he replied.
"Well my mom saw us last night and wants you to come over for dinner. She has to catch a flight out to New York at 8:00 so dinner's at 5:30. After that the house is ours," she told him.

Part 5 "So, Angelus, what are your hobbies?" Joyce asked as they ate.
"Well, I'm a big art fan," he said.
"Is that so? See, Buffy, I told you art wasn't boring," Mrs. Summers said. Buffy rolled her eyes. "Homecoming is tomorrow," Angelus said.
"That's right it is. I assume you're taking Buffy," Joyce said. Angelus nodded. That's when she felt it. A hand, on her thigh rising higher and higher each time it rubbed her. Mmm. that feels so good. Wish he could do this fore-
"Buffy!"
"What? Sorry what?" she said embarrassed.
"I asked if you were done," her mom said.
"Yes. Do you need help with the dishes?" her mother nodded. "Be right back, you can go into the living room." She walked into the kitchen.
"So. what do you think?" she asked her mother.
"He's a very nice young man, honey. I'm so glad you found someone think him." Buffy looked at her mother in shock. What the hell? She isn't supposed to like him.
"He's taking you to homecoming right?" Joyce asked her stunned daughter. Buffy only nodded.
"I'm going to sit with him," she said.
"Ok, I'm going to finish up here then get my stuff and go. If he wants to stay the night, Buffy, I completely trust you both," Joyce said seriously. Buffy nearly fainted.

"So your mom is gone, what are we going to do?" Angelus asked with a seductive smile. Buffy scuffed. He only smiled. Wrapping his arms around her middle, Angelus pulled her onto his lap.
"I have to talk to you," he said seriously. He thought back to the conversation with Spike. He started to explain.

**// "Hey mate," Spike said. He noticed his friend's face. "What's wrong with you?"
"I think I love Buffy," he said to him.
"Whoa, now mate, where is this coming from?" Spike asked.
"I thought about it all night. All night. You know me, I never think about a girl like that. And yet, all I could think about was after homecoming and I'm done tutoring her, I'm not going to get to kiss her. And hold her. God, when did I become a sap?"
"You are in love," Spike said, "I feel that way about Faith."
"But what if she doesn't love me? I, god, I've never felt like this," Angelus explained.
"So mate, what are you gonna do now?" Spike asked as they finish their long conversation.
"I don't know man," Angelus replied.
"Well after every thing you told me, I think I'm going to heave," Spike said laughing.
"Shut up Spike," he growled.
"Maybe you should tell her," Spike said getting up and walking to his girlfriend.//**

"You.love me?" Buffy asked. Angelus nodded looking to her eyes. Her mind was racing, He loves me. Oh yes. Wait no. oh god I'm so confused.
"I think you should go," she said.
"Buff"
"Go, now," she said running up the stairs to her room. Angelus looked at her as she left. He grabbed his coat and left. As he sat in his car, the light from her house reflected off the tear running down his cheek.

She picked up her phone and dialed the number. She couldn't see with the tears she was crying.
"Hello," the voice said.
"Faith it's Buffy," she said.
"Buffy, how- are you crying?" Faith asked.
"Angelus told me he loved me," she told her.
"And you're crying because."
"I told him to get out," she said softly, "I was confused and didn't know what to do. I told him to leave. And now he probably hates me,"
"Buffy, that guy could never hate you," Faith said.
"What should I do?" Buffy asked.
"Do you love him?"
