Part 18
God, damnit. Move fucking faster!! Angel thought to himself as he was speeding down the highway towards the airport. He looked at the time. Twelve Twenty. Angel honked on the horn harder. The guy in front of him gave him the finger. Fuck this. Angel went to the shoulder lane and speed past all the cars. Please no police please, please. He looked in the back mirror, no police. He heard the cars honking at him and gave them the finger. Didn't they understand that he needed go and get the love of his life back? To get her back before she went to New York. To be famous and loved without him. He pressed harder on gas pedal. He wouldn't let that happen. She would be famous and loved with him. He smiled at the thought. It would be all over magazines. Buffy O'Connor. Buffy O'Connor? He stopped the car and he fell onto the wheel. Since when had he wanted to get married? When did he want to have a wife? Buffy O'Connor... The moment he met her. He wanted to be with her. He wanted to marry her. He wanted her to walk down the aisle to him in a white gown. To make love to her on there honeymoon. He looked at the clock. Twelve thirty. He pressed once again on the speed pedal. He needed to get there and now! He pressed harder. He needed to get to her. Before... No that isn't going to happen! He yelled at himself. No, No, No, No, NO! He looked around his surroundings but couldn't get a clear picture of it because he was going to fast. He looked straight ahead. Your driving like a mad person, he thought to himself.
"You think your driving fast enough?" Someone yelled at him through there window when he sped past the car.
No, he thought to himself. He pressed the pedal faster and saw that he was pushing hundred. Then push it 'cause this isn't fast enough. He shook his head; he really was a mad man. He shook his head again; he had to have happy thoughts good thoughts. He was going to have Buffy back... hopefully. He added.
He pressed the pedal and saw that the gas only went up to two hundred twenty. He knew he should have taken the damn Porsche over the Mercedes. He closed his eyes briefly. He really was a mama rich boy. He opened them and suddenly saw things clearly. This wasn't anyone's fault but his. He knew that, he did but he knew that somewhere deep down he didn't think so. It was Buffy's for not being rich enough. It was Cordelia's for introducing them. It was Darla's for cheating on him. It was Liam for conversing him. It was the damn fates for showing him. But it wasn't. It was his. He said no. He said he didn't want to. He ruined it.
"You're supposed to be together. You're meant to be together. And you ruined it."
He pushed harder. If he had to make it up to for the rest of his life then he would. He would kill to be with her. Just for one more chance.
God damnit, don't people know how to drive, he thought as he sped faster to LAX.
He parked his car and as near as he could and ran into the airport. He ran to the nearest information desk.
"When does the flight to New York take off?" Angel asked as he was ready to run to the gate.
"In twenty minutes," The lady at the desk. He started to run towards the security.
"Ticket and passport." the guard said.
"I don't have one," Angel said.
"You need one to get through." The guard said.
"Listen I need to get through." He said frantically.
"I'm sorry, sir. But those are the regulations. No ticket no access."
"What if I show you my passport?" Angel said reaching for his wallet.
"No, you also need a ticket."
Angel was growing frustrated. This wasn't happening. He needed to get to Buffy. And now before the plane took off. He ran a hand through his hair so he wouldn't burst.
"And where can I get this ticket," Angel said through clenched teeth.
"Over there," the guard said pointing to the ticket buyer thing. (AN: I forgot the name, Sorry)
Angel ran over there and butted through the line, "I need a ticket."
"Excuse me, sir. There are people in front of you." The lady said.
"I don't care, just give a ticket!" Angel said.
The lady seemed scared and said, "To where?"
"I don't give a shit, just give me a ticket!"
"There is one from here to Pisa International Airport Galileo Galilei that is in Tuscany, Italy and there is a stop in Atlanta-"
"I don't care, here," He handed her his VISA.
"There are only first class tickets available, sir," she said.
"Does it look like I care?" Angel said.
She started typing in something and looking at his VISA when he had an idea, "Actually can you make that for two?"
"Y-y-yes, sir," she said, scared out of her wits of this man.
"Okay, do that then."
Angel ran to terminal D29 and saw her. She was standing in line with her ticket and passport in hand, a bag with a huge B on the other. He smiled, she was so beautiful. Not the time, Angel. He reminded himself. He ran over to her and just as she was about to give the flight attendant the ticket he grabbed her from the line. She started to yell till he put his hand over her mouth. The flight attendant looked over confused but said nothing and started checking over the next person in line. He let her go once he knew she wouldn't run away.
"What the hell-"she looked over the person that kidnapped her and gasped. "What the fuck are you doing here."
"I need to talk to you," he said grabbing her hand and walking over to the café.
"No." She said as she pulled her hand away from his. "Why on earth would I talk to you?" She asked fiercely.
"Because I love you," he thought there was no reason to hide it.
Her eyes widened in surprise and she stared in shock. "Y-you love me?" she asked quietly.
"Yes, very much," he said as he came closer to his goddess.
"But you left me," she asked confused.
"I was stupid," he said bluntly. He took her hand in his, "I love you, Buffy Summers."
She turned away, "I can't do this. I have a job waiting for me in New York."
"You have a man who loves you more than anything waiting for you right here."
"You left me," she said spinning around.
"Yeah, you said that already and I'm saying again that I was stupid. I listened to my head. I listened to the people around me instead of me. My heart. And I hurt the only person who I ever loved. And I do. Love you that is and it was a mistake when I didn't answer you. I loved you the second I saw you."
"Oh God, this isn't happing." Buffy whispered to her self.
She slides down to the floor. Angel caught her in his arms and looked down at her. She looked up at him, her innocent eyes looking up at him. And he loved them, he loved her.
"Buffy, love we should go sit at one of the chairs," he said picking her up in his arms.
She nodded her head and put her head against his chest. He felt her smile in him and couldn't help the full fledged grin that came across his face. Please Buffy, I promise not to screw it up this time if you let me in. He sat them in one of the airport chairs and put Buffy in his lap. He was happy to see that she didn't pull away. He looked down and smiled at her.
"You're beautiful," he whispered.
"Don't sweet talk me! Give me your explanation and then maybe I might... you know," she said.
"My explanation is this. I love you. I want to be with you. I was stupid. And I got pointed in the right direction by myself when I noticed how absolutely I was depressed without you. How much I loved you when I yelled it in my mothers face."
Her eyes lit up, "You yelled at your mother?"
"Yup, and all for you. She had no right to talk to you like and I wasn't going to let her. I love you and no one I love is going to get insulted," he said putting a hand through her hair.
She pulled away slightly, "Angel..."
"I love you. I wont leave I swear."
"Swear, swear?" Buffy said coming closer to him.
"Swear, swear." He felt her moving against him and felt his arousal grow. God this really wasn't the time.
"Angel you hurt me. You left me. You were my first and you left for trash. Like I meant nothing to you and I might love you but you hurt me just a little bit more than I can take in life time. I really don't want it to happen again."
"Buffy, I don't know what to say but say that I love you and swear that I won't leave. I can't live without you. I was horrible, ask Cordelia. I need you more than I need oxygen." He said desperately.
"Pinky swears?" Buffy asked holding out her right pinky.
"Pinky swears."
Angel said and instead of taking hold of her pinky he kissed her. And it was the best ever. More than passionate. More than beautiful and loving. It was everything like that but so much more. He let go and looked at her face. She was so beautiful. She eyes were half closed and her lips were a bit swollen and she was all his.
"Buffy," Angel said.
"What?" she said as she laid her head under his chin.
"Marry me?"
She looked up at him shocked, "W-what?"
"Marry me, become my wife. Please, I can't live without you on more second. I just need to know that you will be mine forever. And we don't have to do it right away-"
But he got cut off by Buffy wrapping her arms around his neck shrieking. He felt people stare but he didn't care. He had Buffy.
"Of course I'll marry you." She said happily.
"We can get a ring in Europe-"
"Europe?"
"See to get in here I needed to have a ticket, by chance I had two, to Italy so I was wondering if you would come with me." He said showing her the tickets.
Her eyes widened and she grabbed the tickets. "First class tickets to Tuscany?" he nodded and once again wrapped her arms around his neck.
He wrapped his arms around her and smelled her scent. She was the greatest thing to ever to happen to him and he didn't care how he got her or why he got her he was just glad that he did get her in the end, because without her everything would be hopeless.
She let go for a second and looked at him, "Angel, what about my job?"
"If you wanted a job in fashion I can get you one. We can move to New York and figure something out."
"You would move for me?" She sounded surprised.
"I would move the world for," he said and wrapped his arms around her waist. "I almost did to try and get here."
She groaned, "I don't even want to know what you did to get here."
"I almost ran over fifty people but we can pretend that you didn't hear that."
"Flights to Pisa International Airport Galileo Galilei are now boarding." The speaker said.
They got up and went over to the gate. Suddenly a thought occurred to Buffy. "Angel we have no clothes. My clothes are going to New York and I'm pretty sure you didn't bring any."
"We'll buy some."
She shook her head. At least she could have tons of designers now. I bet Angel wouldn't know the difference. She thought to herself. Just as they were about to take off Buffy toke Angel's hand, he looked at her.
"You scared of the take off?" he asked amused.
"No, I mean yes I just forgot to tell you something."
"What?"
"I love you."
She saw the tears form in Angel's eyes; he held her hand tighter. "I love you too."
TBC- I gave you the fluff and give the feedback. hehe.
