Same Slayer, Different Start pt. 5
Three Hours Later
Suffice it to say, Buffy was shocked, disgusted, and afraid. Angel had told her everything about his past as the evil Angelus, getting his soul back, and his existence before meeting her. Hearing about everything he had done, disgusted her to no end. But now, knowing that vampires, witches, and other demons existed, frightened her. She thought all of those things were myths, just popular costumes on Halloween. Now, knowing that it wasn't true, she made her way towards the door.
"I just have one question, Angel, and I want you to tell me the truth." Not saying anything, he let her continue. "Why do you really not want to kill me?" Forcing eye contact, he said, "Because couldn't stand it if anything happened to you." "Why?" "Because I love you, Buffy. I have for the past 4 years."
Cupping his face in her hands, she leaned in and kissed him, gently at first. As the kiss deepened, she settled herself into his lap, wrapping her arms around his neck. Eventually, she broke off the kiss because she needed to breath. "I love you too Angel, and I'm glad you told me everything." "Really?" "Yes. While I'm not thrilled about my destiny, I'll deal, as long as I have you with me." "You'll always have me with you, Buffy." Smiling at him, she laid her head on his chest, breathing deeply. Now that the love of his life knew what she had to know about him, they could finally move on.
