Chapter 4: The Plan
"Do you believe it will work?" asked Buffy two hours later feeling the wind blow her long hair around her neck. She blushed when Angel reached up to tuck her hair behind her ear.
"I believe anything is possible," he replied leaning over to giving his Princess a kiss. "Especially when I have you."
"I will sneak into my Father's chambers tonight. He has old books dating back to the 1100's. I am sure one of his mystical books will inform us more about the sword itself," explained Buffy snuggling her back against Angel's chest.
"We know where it is located," offered Angel laying out what the two of them already knew.
"In the center of our lands," returned Buffy her smile suddenly slipping into a sad look. The thought of all those people losing their lives over this dumb sword. It hurt her every time she thought of so many lost in a futile war.
"Where the waters flow, and night light glows," finished Angel repeating the same old rhyme his father taught him as a child.
"I gave much thought to the old saying," responded Buffy. "Over these years of war, I searched on many maps to find such a place."
"And?" wondered Angel.
"The only place that seems to fit the description perfectly, is the waterfall about a hundred yards from here," answered Buffy turning to face her handsome kind Prince. "I have been unable to escape the palace walls long enough to look for it myself."
"Spike, Xander, and I will handle the search," Angel promised Buffy wrapping his arms tightly around her. He could not get enough of her. She was a rose, a rose of passion and beauty. One he intended to marry, and to have a family with.
"Very well," agreed Buffy. "I will do the research. Please, be careful though, Angel?" she asked the Prince.
"I will come back to you with the sword in hand," he promised giving her a kiss on the nose.
"Princess," the two heard Cordelia call from far off. "Princess Buffy, where are you?"
"I better go," Buffy said getting up from her very comfortable position. "When will I see you again?" she asked wanting to see him again already, and he hadn't even left.
"I promise you, My Princess, I will not take long. I will return to you before the moon is at it's fullest," Angel promised giving Buffy one last lingering kiss before letting her head off towards her maid's voice.
"There you are, Princess," huffed Cordelia. "Your mother has been looking for you everywhere," she stated ushering Buffy inside the palace doors. "Why did you not answer when I called the first time?" she demanded.
"I am sorry, Cordelia, I fell asleep on the grass. I only recently heard you yelling," lied Buffy just as the two of them entered the dining hall.
"Buffy, there you are," Queen Joyce greeted her eldest. "Where in the world were you all this time?" she asked. Buffy took the seat offered by Prince Riley thanking him, but refusing to say no more to him.
" I fell asleep in the garden, Mother," she retold the same story she told Cordelia. "I am sorry to have worried you," she apologized.
"Buffy, Riley would like you to join him tomorrow on a ride into town tomorrow," spoke King Hank, sharing a smile with his wife.
Buffy groaned inside. She knew what her father's intentions where. He wanted Riley and her to fall in love and marry. That was never going to happen if it was up to her.
"I am flattered you asked me," Buffy said to Riley giving him a false smile. "However, I am busy all day tomorrow practicing the song I am to sing for your Father and Mother when they arrive later on. I could not possibly waste such a good opportunity to practice go to waste," she covered. If everyone thought she would be in her music room practicing all day, then no one would bother her. Therefore, she could sneak into her father's private room without anyone being the wiser.
"Buffy Anne Summers," scolded Queen Joyce shocked at her daughter's refusal of the Prince. "You can practice any day of the week before Riley's parents get here. Riley, she would love to go with you tomorrow," the queen informed the triumph Prince.
Buffy wanted to slap that smirk right off that face. If her mother wouldn't let her stay home because of practice then tomorrow Buffy would claim a head ache and that would be that.
"I look forward to our time together," replied Riley taking Buffy's hand into his and gave it a kiss.
"!No, Me gusta su ( I don't like you!)!" Buffy responded. 'I can not believe he actually thinks I complimented him,' Buffy thought when Riley nodded at the replied. "Baka (Idiot)," she added under her breath.
"Your, Highness, are you sure about this plan?" Xander asked his Prince. Angel had gotten home before his two friends sent out a search party for him. When Angel let them in on his and Buffy's plan, Spike agreed to do it, but Xander was ever the optics…
"I am sure of this," replied Angel. "I promise Buffy we would have it done by the time of the next full moon. I will not let her down. I want this war over with, and Buffy as my wife sooner," confessed Angel surprising both his friends.
"You really are in love with the Princess of Sunnydale, are you not?" questioned Xander already knowing what the Prince felt, but he wanted to hear his friend say it.
"I love her more then I have loved anything else my entire life," returned Angel looking straight at his friends. "I have only know her, but a short time, and yet I feel like she has always been a part of my life. A part that is precious to me."
"All right, "agreed Xander. "When are we heading to this waterfall?"
"Tonight," informed the chocolate haired Prince," as soon as Spike has gathered all we need. Meet me in my chambers no later then eleven," instructed the Prince.
"Agreed," Spike spoke for the first time in a while. "We will be there, Angel," he told his best friend.
"Thank you, you two," thanked Angel before leaving.
