Summary: Buffy and Angel are dating, everything is perfect... until their parents become engaged, but will even this be enough to break the couple up?
Parent Problems: Chapter 4
Buffy sighed, enjoying the soft, warm feel of the sun on her body as she lay outside in a beach chair. She could see changing colors beneath her eyelids as the sun beat down on her. She smiled to herself, and then opened her eyes, waiting for them to adjust to the brightness outside, instead of the darkened backs of her eyelids.
She glanced over at the beach chair beside her, expecting to see Angel lying in it, but he wasn't there. She sat up and looked around for him, but by the time she saw where he was, it was to late.
Angel jumped into the pool, right by the side Buffy was sitting by, splashing her. She almost screamed at the sudden wave of water that hit her, but instead jumped up quickly, and shook her head.
"Angel!" she yelled as soon as he surfaced, smirking at her. She glared back at him, "You are so going to regret that." She told him, jumping into the water next to him, splashing him in the face.
He rubbed the water out of his eyes, and looked at Buffy when she came up next to him. He smiled, and Buffy looked at him sourly, before pushing down forcefully on his shoulders, sending him under the water.
Angel was so surprised that he didn't take a breath, and was soon struggling to get up, pushing Buffy's small hands off his shoulders, and grabbing the edge of the pool, pulling himself out of the water, panting.
He looked at her, blinking, still trying to regain his breath, not believing his girlfriend had just dunked him.
She smiled sweetly at him, and moved away from the edge of the pool, swimming on her back, not looking at him. Angel glared at her, and slipped silently into the water. He swam underwater over to her, and pulled her under with him, enjoying the shriek he had heard, even if the water had muffled it.
He surfaced again, holding Buffy in his arms, laughing. Buffy however, was not, she was panting just as he had been a minute ago, from her pushing him under the water. She tried to move away from him, but he held her close by her waist.
"What did you think I would just let you get away with that?" he asked.
"No, I thought it would make us even, seeing as you splashed me...." she said, pouting, even though she knew Angel couldn't see her face.
"I'm sorry about splashing you Buffy, it was an accident." He said, removing on hand from around her waist.
"Accident my ass. You were trying to get me wet!" she said.
"Guilty as charged I guess...." He said, quickly undoing the knot that held her top on, hoping she wouldn't notice.
"Angel, you soaked me! And I had just gotten dry and everything, you meanie." She said, and Angel smiled, not only was she using insults that told him she wasn't really mad at him, but she also hadn't notice what he had been doing.
"I'm sorry baby, forgive me?" he asked sweetly.
She turned around in his arms, just as he finished with the second knot, "I'll have to think about it." She said, though he could tell she was joking.
"That's my girl," he said, kissing her on the nose.
She smiled, "Now let go, I want to get out, the water's cold."
He smirked, and let go of her, her top slowly slid off, and her eyes widened. She screamed, and turned away from him, grabbing the edge of the pool, and turning her head to look at him, "Angel! You stupid, annoying, perverted, freak!!" she screamed at him, her face bright red as she reached for her top, but she wasn't able to reach it.
He started laughing, and grabbed it, holding just out of her reach. "I knew there was a reason I liked this bathing suit." He said, smirking at her.
"Angel, give that back!" She yelled at him, still reaching for it.
"How 'bout no?" he answered, knowing she was going to kill him for this later.
"Angel!" She whined, as he pulled it out of her reach once more, "please?"
He smiled at her, "And what will happen if I do give it back, huh? What are you going to do to me that would make me want to do that?"
"If you don't give that back right now, I'll go home, and I'll call Riley and ask him to be my boyfriend, he would never embarrass me like this." She threatened.
Angel blinked. She wouldn't, she couldn't, she really had to be bluffing, she knew that Riley Finn had had a crush on her for the last five months, and that Angel hated his guts, she wouldn't do that to him, would she?
"I mean it Angel, give me my top!" she yelled.
All this noise had alerted the two kids next door, who had been enjoying a peaceful after noon with each other until a few minutes ago when Buffy had started shrieking at Angel about her top.
A redheaded girl peered over the large hedge at the pool next door, only to see Buffy huddled against the side of the pool, reluctant to turn around and Angel, holding up her top, as she yelled at him.
A boy with reddish, blondish spiked hair soon joined her, both of them finding the situation a little bit amusing.
The boy decided to stick up for Buffy and called over to Angel, "Hey Angel! Give the girl back her top!"
Angel turned his attention to the two teens looking over the bushes that separated the yards, He grinned at the other boy, "I don't' know Oz... I was thinking about it, but I'm not sure what I should do...."
"Angel!" Buffy yelled, still extremely pissed off, and now becoming even more embarrassed knowing that someone else was there.
He sighed, "Ok, ok, here Buffy." He swam over to her, and handed her the top, but now with Oz and his girlfriend watching she didn't know how she was going to get it on.
"Angel...." She said, looking at him, and he blinked.
"Oh." He got it, she couldn't move now, not with the other two looking. He though about it, then moved next to her, blocking the others from seeing, "Do it, I wont look, promise."
She looked up at him, but he was already looking away, and Buffy took the time to put her top back on, tying it tighter than she had before, and then hitting Angel over the head.
"You asshole." She said, and then hugged him, "never do that again, or I will take Riley up on that date he asked me on."
"Riley asked you on a date!? And he knew you were going out with me!?" Angel said, feeling himself becoming angry. He wanted to kick this kid's ass for even going near Buffy, and now that feeling was stronger than ever.
"Uh-huh." Buffy said, looking at him.
"That kid is dead." Angel muttered so only Buffy heard him, and she giggled before looking up at the two other people, who were still positioned at the hedge.
"Hey Willow." Buffy said, recognizing the redhead next to Oz, "I didn't know you lived down here."
"I don't, Oz does, I'm just hanging at his house for the day." She said, smiling at Oz, before looking back at Buffy, "What are you doing at Angel's house?"
"I'm staying over for the weekend." She said, feeling Angel wrap his arms around her from behind. She giggled as he kissed her neck, and smiled at Willow.
"I guess that means I'll see you tomorrow." Willow said, "I'll be here, but now I got to go." She said, and Buffy nodded as she noticed Oz whispering in her friend's ear.
"Bye Wills!" Buffy called as Willow and Oz disappeared behind the hedge.
Angel nipped her ear; "I think you disturbed them with all that screaming." He said, kissing up and down her neck.
"Well that wasn't my fault was it mister?" she asked.
"Most likely not, but you still did it."
Buffy sighed, "What am I going to do with you Angel?" she asked, and felt him shrug.
She rolled her eyes, and leaned against him, turning her head to kiss him, "Well, if you don't know, then I guess I don't either." She said, smiling at him.
