Gone in a phone call
Acording to Harmony, Eve had left in a hurry with a new smashed up face.
"You guys go ahead, Corrdeail an I'll catch up." Angel said with an air in his tone. I gave a snort in my sleve and Spike rolled his eyes grabbing the sruff of my neck and frog marching me to the door. Now i know where i get the eye rolling thing from.
"Pheonix, leave it out." Spike said and i laugthed as the elivtor door started to close but i rellised that i had left the dagger on the table.
"Ill be right back, ive forgotten somthing." I sqeazed through the elivator door and ran back to Angels office.
I was about to walk straight into the office when i remembered that he was talking o Corrdelia so i decided to wait outside and listen instead.
"Angel i have to go." I heard Corrdelia say.
"Why dont you stay." Came the reply from the vmapire.
"Angel i cant, you gave up Connor and now you think everything is ok. Ive got to be some where and it isnt here." I thought to myself that Cordelia was right about Conner and then my eyes opned wide. Cordelia knew about Connor and nowthat made four.
Hopefully Eve had forgotten about Connor seen as Harmony had hit her so hard i was surprised not to see her brains smeared across the wall. I heard Corrdelia walk over to the door and then she stopped.
Oh what the heck." I heard her run back to Angel and from what i could tell i knew that they where not shaking hands.
I heard the office phone ring and ring and ring. It was getting slightly annoying and i relised that the pair where not finsihed swapping saliva. I was about to walk in and answer the phone but Angel had got to it first.
Looking around the door i saw Angel on the phone but i had a sudden urge to close my eyes. When i opened them i relised that Corrdelia wasnt in the room and i looked over to Angel who was still on the phone.
"She cant be, She's right here." Angel said looking around for Cordelia.
"She's...When did she die?" Angel asked and i pulled a face. He couldnt have been on about Corrdelia could he.
Angel put the phone down adn slumped into the desk chiar with a hurt look on his face.
"I heard, I didnt mean too, i just came for my dagger." I said walking in but Angel dint reply. Quietly i picked up the dagger and headed for the door.
"She was right wasnt she." I heard Angel say and i turned to see him to see him staring at the floor.
"About what?" I asked.
"Connor." The was a puase after that and the silence was unnerving.
"Yes she was and she;s always been right. You gave up you son Angel and i know he was a pain but he was still yours. If you had given him up for world peace or somthing stupid like that then maybe it would have been ok But its not. You gave him up for evil." Angel looked a me and i carried on.
"Yes Angel evil and its purist form. Youve been sat there thinking to yourself is this right and am i doing the right thing. But deep down you know you not." I sighed and walked to the door.
"Pheonix your wrong." I looked around at Angel.
"Its not deep down i know this is evil. It's all the time."
Angel told the rest of theg ang about Corrdelia and they where just as shock as both me and Angel. I think we all tried to avoid he subject and it worked, even though that does sound bad.
I was now curled up on the sofa in Angels ofice with my hoody wrapped around me slowly closing my eyes. I was glad i was going back to the mansion becasue i hadnt slept in days. Spike sat on the sofa next to me and i curled up to him slowly falling asleep.
I heard Kurt tleport onto the floor and they must have thought i was asleep becasue they started to talk as if i was.
"You fight good you know Kurt." I heard Spike said and i swore i had heard Kurt blush even with my eyes closed. I felt Spike run his hands threw my hair.
"You do know if id known abou you..." Spike said trailing of with some difficulty in his voice.
"For the tenth time this evening yes." I heard Kurt say and i tried not to grin.
"Don't tell her." Came Kurts voice.
"tell her what."
"She hasnt told you she was staked."
Spike stopped stroking my hair.
"What do you mean staked."
"We fell out one evening and she went missing, our computer tracked her don bu when i found her she was tied to a wall with a stkae through the heart." Kurt paused.
"I know how old she is and that she's a differnt type of mutant but ive never known some one to get a stake through the heart and live. She was unconicous for about a week." Kurt stopped.
"Who did it." I felt Spike hold on tight to me as if some one was to snatch me away.
"She wouldnt say." Was all Kurt said and I knew that Spike senced that Kurt had lied. How could i come out and say: Oh by the way Dad, Mum staked me the other day because monks told her too.
I heard Kurt teleport next to Spike.
"I cant blame her for not telling me. Im not exactly the model parent." Spike sighed and i think he was waiting for an answer but i never heard becasue i had fallen asleep.
