Chapter Two
Angel couldn't wait to see her again she looked as beautiful as ever.
"I can't believe I'm alive again, how's my baby Connor."
"Well Connor's not a baby anymore."
"Don't worry Angel I know you dont have to explain, I know about everything that happened and I think you made the right choice for our son this time, I can't wait to see him, come on take me to him." Darla was really excited to see her son once again. Angel was so glad to have Darla back, Angel knew Connor always wanted his mother. Angel was a little nervious on how Connor might react to Darla. Once the elevator doors to the penthouse opened Connor was found asleep on one of the sofas. Angel goes to wake Connor up but Darla stops him, Darla looks at her sleeping son and smiles he looks so peaceful and innocent at that moment. Darla gently places her hand on Connor's shoulder and shakes it a little.
"Connor, sweety wake up." Connor hears his mother's voice and thinks he's dreaming.
"Mom?" "Yes baby I'm right here." Darla assures her son. Connor slowly opens his eyes and realizes he's not dreaming that his mother is right in front of him. Connor reached out and felt her face and realized his mother wasn't a ghost.
"Your real...your really here...how?" "It dosn't matter how I got here all that matters is that I'm here and I'm going to be a part of your life." Darla said as she gave Connor a hug. Angel was so glad to see his son with his mother again.
"Darla would you like to see your new room?" "Yes I would love to."
Angel lead Darla to her room it was very spacious and elagantly decorated and in her drawers and closet she had a whole bunch of new clothes.
"Thanks Angel, I love it." Darla told Angel as she walked around her new room.
"I'm glad you like it." Angel then heard the elevator doors opening and it was the pizza guy with the pizza. Angel went out and payed for the pizza and set the table for Darla and Connor for them to eat their dinner. Connor and Darla both sat at the table and started eating.
"I had forgotten how pizza tasted like it's delicious." Darla says as she takes another bite of her pizza.
"So how are you and your father getting along?"
"Alright I guess."
"Thats's good, your father is a great man."
"Yeah right." Connor mumbled with a sneer.
"Did you say something?" Darla asked Connor. Connor just nodded his head no. Darla probably didn't hear what Connor said but Angel did.
Once Connor and Dala are done eating Angel says" Connor you should go and start getting ready for bed you have a big day tomorro I want you in bed early."
"I'm not sleepy." Connor tells Angel with an attitude
"I didn't ask if you were sleepy, just go to your room and get ready for bed." Connor is really getting pissed on how Angel is telling him what to do, Connor stands defiently in front of his father glaring at him.
Darla notices the tension between father and son and says "Connor do what you father asks of you please your father and I need to talk privatly anyways." Connor is feeling a little ganged up at that moment Connor just goes quietly to his room.
"Let's have a seat in the living room." Angel told Darla.
As they sat down Angel told Darla" I'm glad to have you back."
"And I'm glad to be back, I finally have a chance to be amother to my son I know what he went though he suffered too much in the hands of Holtz thats why I'm so glad that our son has a second chance now to be happy."Darla told Angel.
"Thats all I want is for our son to be happy." Angel told Darla. "
I was noticeing some tension between Connor and you earlier, is it always like that?" Darla asked.
"Pretty much, he no respect toward me, I've tried alot of things to get him to come around but nothing as worked, I tried to be his friend and he betrayed me, this time around I'm going to be his father whether he likes it or not." Angel told Darla.
"Thats probably what he has been needing all along." Darla told Angel.
"Yeah I guess your right." Angel told Darla.
"I want to wish Connor goodnite before he gets to sleep." Darla tells Angel.
Darla walks over to her son's bedroom and knocks on his bedroom door After no responce she slowly opens the door expecting to find her son asleep but finds him seated on his desk chair playing with a gameboy. Connor wasn't expecting his mother to walk in he thought it was Angel coming to bother him.
"Hey sweety I was just stopping by to wish you goodnite."
Darla then gave Connor a little pec on his forehead and left his room.
Connor kind of got a little nervious around his mother he's still in a little state of shock that his mother is alive and living with him. After his mother left his room Angel entered his room and notices that his son didn't even bother to get ready for but but is playing on s gameboy.
"Didn't I tell you to get ready for bed?" Connor just ignores Angel and continues playing on his gameboy.
"Connor, I'm talking to you I expect you to listen to me when i'm speaking with you!" Angel tells Connor sternly as he snaches the gameboy out of Connor's grasp. Connor didn't expect Angel to take the gameboy away from him.
"Hey give it back!" " No your not getting it back until your behaviour improves, Now get ready for Bed." Angel tells Connor as he goes into one of Connor's drawer's and picks out a pair of flannel pajamas and throws them onto Connor's lap. Connor picked up the pajamas and threw them at Angel. All Angel wanted to do at this moment was turn Connor over his knee and give him a sound spanking that he won't soon forget and teach him to respect but Angel held himself back from doing so at that time. "By the time I come back you better be in your pajamas asleep in bed."
Angel exits Connor's room and goes over to Darla's room and gently knocks on the door. Darla hears the knocking and opens the door for Angel to come in.
"Hey Angel" Angel goes into her room and sits on her bed and Darla sits next to him.
"I don't know if Connor will ever stop hateing me."
"Connor does not hate you-"
Angel interrupted Dala and said "Yes he does you didn't see the way he treated me just now." "Angel things are diffrent for Connor now he has you and I now he needs time to get used to it, things are only going to get better."
"I really hope so,thanks for listening."
"Anytime" Darla tells Angel with a smile.
"I'm going to go and check on Connor hopefully he's in bed already."
"Alright, goodnite Angel."
"Goodnite" Angel said as he left her room.
As Angel comes toward Connor's room he really hopes his son is asleep in bed like he's suppose to. As Angel opens the door to his son's room he doesn't find his son in bed asleeo but finds him seated on his desk chair on his computer playing computer games.
"Connor what did I tell you before I left your room earlier."
Connor just ignored Angel and continued playing on the computer. Angel walked over to were Connoer was playing and shut off the computer quickly. "What are you doing!" Connor yelled at Angel.
"I should be asking you the same thing, you should be in bed."
"Well I'm not sleepy now and I'll go to bed when I feel liker." Connor told Angel as he got up from his chair and into Angel's face.
"Connor as your father I have every right to take care of my son and make sure he gets enough sleep, stays healthy and follows my rules."
"Rules? I'm not going to follow any stupid rules you make up."
"Yes you are and I'll make sure of it." Angel then grabs Connor's wrist and sits Connor back down where he was seated earlier. Connor was about to protest but Angel kept on talking.
"Right now your going to hear all the rules I expect you to follow Rule one No lieling, Rule two I am to know where you are at all times, Rule three clean after yourself, Rule four No violence at all so no fighting demons for the time being."
"What?! there's no way you are makeing me stop fighting demons it's part of who I am."
"I'm not saying you can never fight demons again, it's just for the time being I really want you to have a close to normal life now."
"Whatever." Connor mummbled. Connor was very angry right now and was not going to stop fighting demons whatever his father told him."Since you diobeyed me over and over today you are to write your rules one hundred times tomorro after your doctors appointment in the morning.
