A/N -=- Okay again, thanks for the many reviews I got. Wow! I just want to say a few things. As long as there are reviews this story will continue. I am a little bit busy with this fan fic but my others will be updated pretty soon. I think since Buffy barely used her brain in high school she get's attracted to mind trips. That's the way i see it. One more thing...This is a defenite BUFFY AND ANGEL! In the Chapter after this one There's going to be a full B/A fluff scene. Like crying, and love, and forbidden. But after that chapter it will be more focussed on the end of days but of course the fluff and angst and drama between Buffy and Angel will be never ending! I am sorry to say though there will ahve to be a chapter with Buffy and Spike to talk about the just friends. One question, I need to know what your opinions for other realationships are? Because I just know it will be Oz and Willow, and Buffy and Angel. What about Spike, Faith, Xander, Kennedy, Illyria, Wesley and so on. IDEAS PLEASE!
Chapter 10 -=- Hiding Does Nothing
-Main room -=- Hyperion-
It had been almost 10 minutes and the three heroes still hadn't said a word to each other. Buffy started fidgeting which always meant she was getting impatient. I guess she finally had enough.
Buffy stood in front fo them causing both vampire's head to shoot up and stare at her, "Look I know you both want to talk about this but if we're not going to do it now can I go away because I'm getting a little uncomfortable."
Angel stood in front of her not yelling but not talking like he usually does, "You can't expect to tell us that you knew the end of days was coming, that you went to our graves, that you saw me as a puppet, that you met whistler, that you remember that day, that you love both of us..."
Spike stood up and cut him off, "...And oh yea that you made a deal that involves us endangering your life every minute of everyday and you didn't even mention it."
Buffy couldn't stand being attacked like this, she was never good at being by herself so she walked back to the couch and sat down with the vampires now staring down at her. "Look I know if i told you about it all you wouldn't let me do it. I mean you guys freaked when we did the spell."
Spike hit the side of his head, "Duh we'd say no. You knowing we would say no should of givin' you some bloody idea that it was the wrong thing to do."
Buffy stood right in his face, "It was the right thing to do. If i didn't make this sacrifice, all the lives in L.A. would be gone by now including yours."
Angel sighed and sat down, "So this connection thing is over now right? You used the power so now no more prying into our feelings?"
Buffy stared down at him hard, "No I feel you guys til the day i die. Why Angel? Are you scared that now I know exactly how you feel that you can't hide form me anymore?"
Angel stood and yelled, "I never hid from you."
Buffy shook her head and her voice started to sound raspy from the oncoming tears. After a little silence, "Is that why you never bothered to tell me that you had a son? That you love Cordy? That you slept with Darla? That you went evil? That you took back a day I should of remembered? So this isn't hiding to you?"
"Buffy I...I really didn't think of you at the time." Angel calmed his voice when he saw the tears well in her eyes
Buffy just increased the volume of hers as she backed away from Angel, "Exactly. It was none of my business. Well except for the day because well that was me. Honestly I'm glad you're moving on. I just never could understand why none of you talk to me. Through-out the whole time I've known both of you I've been the one talking. Come on I finally start a dialogue with Spike and he goes and dies...and he doesn't even tell me that he's back. Frankly I'm kind of glad I have insights to you guys, at least now I know how you really feel."
Buffy started to stalk off and Spike grabbed her and turned her around, "What about us huh pet? We don't get eyes into your soul."
"That's because if you two had insight on what I was feeling it would only allow you more ammunition to hurt me." Buffy said through the obvious tears as she pushed Spike and stalked to the training room.
Spike and Angel watched her go. The two vampires sat on the couch and then Spike looked at his grandsire. "You know she's a lot like Drusilla."
Angel stared at him and then nodded his head, "With shame, I say you're right. Maybe that's why Angelus was so drawn to her."
Spike laughed, "Maybe that's why Angel was drawn to her."
Angel just sighed and then made a small smile, "Do you realize she set us up with the Immortal?"
Spike stared at him, "How did she know about the Immortal?"
Angel just shook his head, "At least none of us were the hero, especially you."
"Yea and I won't be!" Angel stared at the blonde vampire. "She was right you know. You had her, you were with her and you didn't even know how much it meant, couldn't even take advantage of it. For once in your life Angel listen to some advice."
"Yes because advice from you is going to do me so well."
Spike just sighed and got off the couch. He walked to the stairs and as soon as he made it to the top he looked over the edge down at his already brooding grand-sire. "You're the only one she loves Angel. I don't see why, you're too tall, too sulky, and you defenitely don't look as good as I do but anywho she does. You're the only man I know who won't take the chance to love her back. You always did hide, maybe she's not what you want and the seer is. But I swear peaches, you better make damn sure you know what you want because you hurt her again and i'll show you a little of that torture that you bestowed upon people for 100 years."
Before Angel even had a chance to reply Spike turned and left to find a room to sleep in. He hadn't slept in days with the battle and Buffy and the talk. It makes him wonder what could possibly be next. He finally lay down with this thoughts and closed his eyes. He was about to doze off when Buffy went running into the room.
"Spike, get up."
"Why? What now? If you're not having my baby I'm not getting out of this bed."
Buffy sighed, "Okay I'm having twins, This means I can't help the girls train. Maybe that's why they want you downstairs."
Spike made a sarcastic grin, "Oh yes twins."
Buffy made a face, "Fine I'm not having twins but the girls want to see you."
Spike couldn't take this chance up, to be admired bu a bunch of girls. "Alright luv. Let's teach the girls how to kill slayers."
"What are you talking about, you couldn't kill me?"
"Pure bad luck!"
"Sure Spike."
Spike followed Buffy out wondering how it was even possible for them to just go back to normal after the big talk with Angel. He didn't know why but he wasn't going to pass up a chance to be square with Buffy. Eventually they made it back to the training room. Angel and Buffy watched as Spike was greeted by all the slayers with hugs and kisses on the cheeks. Spike just put on his cocky grin and when all the slayers cleared he threw off his shirt. "So, who wants to train?"
Wesley leaned over to Buffy, "Was he always like this?"
Buffy smiled, "The more Spike is admired, the more happy he is. I can feel how wanted he feels right now."
Wesley was confused, "Yes it wasn't really explained, why you're here? How you knew? Why you feel what they do?"
Buffy sighed, "Long story."
Gunn walked over, "Well with how much blondie brags I'd say we've got time."
Gunn felt something hit him in the back of the head and then he heard Spike laugh a little, "Sorry there charlie, I was aiming for the wall."
The only one not laughing was Gunn. "That's okay, we always knew your aim was bad."
Everyone was still laughing except this time Spike who just glared back at him. He went back to talking to the girls. Andrew walked over to Buffy. "Sorry to interrupt this very awkward moment but i need to talk to you."
Everyone watched as Andrew and Buffy exited the room. Only the vamps could hear was being said. "What is it Andrew?"
"Well Buffy, I was just staring at the window and i realized since the first was back wouldn't it still want the slayers dead?"
"Duh Andrew."
"Doesn't that mean bringers would be here?"
"Yes." Buffy was staring at him suspisously now
"So it's okay that we're surrounded by like 100 bringers?"
Buffy ran into the training room not caring that Andrew was right behind her. The vampires were already at the window. Buffy stared out the window and then back at the girls.
"Alright girls, these bringers are your biggest threat. I've seen you take more of these then this. I know you're tired and I promise after this no more training or lessons unless you want them until the big battle. You can rest." The girls screamed with yay's. "Good luck!" She stared at Andrew. "Are you okay for this?"
"Actually I don't think so. I feel something could go wrong."
"I don't blame you, hang in here and have my painkillers ready." Andrew nodded "Alright girls, weapons all around."
Kennedy stepped up, "We actually don't know where that chest is."
Buffy sighed, "Oh yea, Angel can you show them your case?"
"He keeps his weapons in a case?" Rona said out loud
Angel finally spoke up, "They're easier that way."
He walked out and Buffy spoke to the girls, "Just old fashioned. I bet he cleans it almost every week too."
Angel yelled back, "I heard that!"
The girls laughed and Buffy stared at Spike, "You gonna put on a shirt?"
"Why, do I distract you pet? Can't take your eyes off me?" Spike gloated as he put his shirt back on
"Actually I know three girls who love watching you fight without a shirt and you might distract them."
Buffy walked out of the room and was followed by Spike, Wesley and Gunn. By the time they reached the main room the girls were already. Angel held out a sword for Buffy as she walked by.
"It's what I've always wanted, How'd you know?" Buffy mocked
"Come on a stake's to small, your second choice of weapon was always a sword. Simple and easy." Angel said back as they headed for the door.
"He still remembers." Buffy smiled at Angel who only smiled back. It was one of those, I could melt at the sight of you smiles.
Buffy, Spike and Angel stood at the door and walked out. "Well no eyes and they still found us."
One of the bringers attacked Buffy and the mini fight began.
