Wesley entered a place he would once consider his home not with excitement yet fear. "We're closed." said a familiar voice from his past as Cordelia Chase came walking out of the inner office her face in a book. "Wow you reading one of my "big old books" who would of thought." he said nervously. Cordelia spined on her heels.
"Wesley!" she merely said breathlessly.
"Hey" he said weakly. Then Cordy did the unexpected. She ran over to him and jumped into his arms, wrapping her arms around his neck and hugging him tightly.
"Oh my god your back!" she said whispering yet her eye's where watering. "I missed you." she whispered. Wesley merely smiled weakly happy to know he still had one friend as he wiped away a tear with his thumb from her cheek. "Me to." he whispered because he honestly did.
"Wesley" said a deeper more familiar voice.
"Angel." he nodded in recgonizition.
"Get out." he said coldly.
"Angel I"
"I SAID GET OUT!" he screamed. Wesley looked at him, shame in his eyes. Yet he wasn't going to give up on his children that easily.
"Angel please will you just lis"
"GET OUT!" yelled Angel as he threw the ax in his hand at Wesley who ducked, and the ax missed him by an inch. He looked up at Angel with fear in his eyes and left the Hyperion once more.
"Lilah" mumbled Wesley as he entered the house. Yet he heard something crash, running upstairs he saw Lilah in the library of thier home. The liquor cabinet long forgotten open. She was drinking straight from the vodka bottle. Staying within the shadows he watched the scene before him. She looked like crap, still wearing her PJ's, still looking sick, and smelling highly of vomit and vodka. "Maddox?" she yelled as if calling out for him. As if expecting him to come up the stairs. "Smuggle bear where are you?" she cried. She was delusional, god he was about to go to her until she said another name. "Jazz? Jazzy? Jasmine where are you-" yet she broke down to the floor unable to keep it in Wesley rushed to her side. "Jazz? Maddox"
"No it's me love." he whispered.
"Wesley, " she whispered his name and for some reason it made his knee's go weak again.
"Shhh love I'm right here"
"Please don't leave me" she pleaded. "Lilah, I'm not going anywhere"
"Wesley, please...make it stop hurting. please." she whispered.
Wesley merely looked up his wife helplessly. He had no clue what to do.
"It's going to be ok, we'll get them back." he whispered as he stoke her head and kissed her forehead. "I promise...I'll die trying." she nodded as she snuggled back into his arms, yet he did not shed a single tear.
"Angel...why"
"Why what?" he asked coldly back to his wife.
"Don't talk to me in that tone of voice mister." she snapped back.
"Cordy he "
'I know perfectly well what he did, but I also know why he did it. Angel it's been 6 years-" she started.
"Yeh Cordy, 6 years without Conner." he hissed.
"Angel why don't you forgive him?" she asked him her lips starting to tremble as if tears where about to come down her cheeks.
"Cordy I've known you for over 10 years I know your fake crying"
"Ok fine." she said rolling her eyes. "But stills it's been"
"6 years without the man who stole my kid I know"
"No 6 years of you not having a man whom you once considered your best friend." And she left him silently.
"Angel" said Wesley as he reentered the Hyperion.
"Wesley...get out"
"Angel wait I need your help." he cried. Angel merely turned around and turned his back to Wesley and started walking to the basement,
"Don't turn your back on my Angel!" he yelled.
"Wesley you turned to back on me years ago, now watch me do the same"
"Angel!" he cried. Yet Angel kept on walking. "Angel it's my children." Angel stopped walking yet didn't turn and even if he was human, he wouldn't be breathing.
"Wesley!" she merely said breathlessly.
"Hey" he said weakly. Then Cordy did the unexpected. She ran over to him and jumped into his arms, wrapping her arms around his neck and hugging him tightly.
