*****************************

(12:30)

Anxiety got the better of Riley and he called not 30 minutes after hanging up with Cordelia. He knew he should wait at least an hour, but he needed to see the looks on their faces. He dialed the number of an old friend and hoped that they still remembered the favor they owed them.

The phone rang 4 times until Darla finally woke up and grabbed the phone. She practically yelled at the top of her lungs, "Whoever this, you better having a very fucking good reason for calling me this late at night!" She heard a male voice chuckle and felt she knew that laugh from somewhere. Then, the man spoke, "Well, Darla some people don't change do they?" She smiled and straightened up. "Well if it isn't Riley Finn! What brings you to my phone number again? Did that Bunny make you mad again?" She could feel his anger rise through the phone. She smiled; she knew just how to get to him every time.

Through gritted teeth, Riley answered. "No. I am calling in my favor." He heard her brighten up. "Oh! Who do I get to destroy? Please tell me it for a good reason and not to help you get that Bunny back for you." He tried to calm himself before he answered her again. "I need you to call BUFFY'S house and pretend to be the ex-lover of her new boyfriend. Actually you might really be his ex-lover. Did you ever get to meet Angel Connolly?" He heard her sigh. "Did I!!" He laughed. "Good well I will give you the number. Just call her and make her hate Angel for all time!" She laughed. "Anything for you Riley baby!"

Once Riley had given Darla the number and some last minute instructions he sat and watched for the hurt and victory on his part to begin.

********************************

Buffy awoke to Angel's arms around her. She smiled at how right and safe she felt in his arms. She loved it. She had never felt this good in…..forever. She especially never felt this way with Riley! Eww! Just the thought of Riley brought nausea to her stomach. She was stirred from her thoughts when she felt Angel move. She looked up at him and saw that he was still asleep. She moved her legs so she was not all on top of him, and felt pain shoot through her legs. She had heard it would hurt the first time, but obviously they didn't anticipate someone as large as Angel in that analysis. She hadn't seen it, but she could feel it. And she knew that Angel was very, very, very blessed! Her smile widened at her thought. She sat there thinking for a while, until she got the urge to pee. She didn't want to get up, but she really didn't want to hold it. She reluctantly slipped out of Angel's arms and got out of bed. She took the sheets with her but left the comforter on the bed. She tiptoed, well mostly limped, to the bathroom. She went into the bathroom and looked at herself in the mirror. She looked different, she felt different. She stood there looking at herself for a while, then went to the bathroom. Once she was finished she walked back towards her bedroom. She stopped and gasped when she looked at the bed.

Angel had moved in the bed while she was gone, and now had the comforter off of him, and he was exposed for the world to see. The light from the street lamps illuminated him very well. She just looked on in awe. She could not believe that he was……well that huge! She felt lust and desire and want from just seeing him lying there naked. She was shocked to say the least and just couldn't move from her spot. Even when Angel moved and asked her if she was alright.

Angel had felt Buffy get up and go to the bathroom, and had moved around to kick the hot comforter off of him. He had drifted asleep, but awoke when he heard her gasp. He opened his eyes and saw Buffy standing in the room with just a thin sheet barely covering her naked body. He felt lust enter him again, and just wanted to walk up to her and rip that comforter off of her and have a repeat performance of earlier. But he decided to shake that thought till he found what was wrong. He asked her what was wrong in an attempt to change his thoughts to something different. When she didn't answer, he followed her eyes and realized where her gaze had fallen. He smiled and realized that she had probably felt what he had felt looking at her in that skimpy sheet. He decided to get up and walk to her. She finally met his gaze when he was right in front of her. He wrapped his arms around her once he saw her blushing. She buried her face in his neck and sighed. He laughed at her and said, "It's okay baby. I felt the same way when I saw you in this skimpy little sheet." She lifted her head and said, "Really?" He smiled and said, "Of course! You always do that to me for some reason." She smiled shyly and looked down. She mumbled out something that he couldn't understand and he had to put his finger under her chin and make her look at him. "What did you say?" She laughed and said, "I said, 'What are we going to do about it?'" He smiled and brought his lips down to meet hers.

Buffy felt her heart leap when Angel kissed her. She didn't know why she had said that, but she was glad she said it now! She felt Angel start to pull her towards the bed and followed him willingly. She felt him pull her towards the bed and fall on top of him. He stopped kissing her and she opened her eyes to see why he had stopped. She saw something in his eyes that she had never seen before and she got scared. She bit her bottom lip and looked away form him. Then, she felt Angel's hand on her cheek and she looked into his eyes. He had tears in his eyes and, what looked like love. She threw that thought from her mind. There was no way that Angel loved her. I mean, she felt that she definitely didn't feel just lust for him, but she didn't know what Angel felt. She waited for him to speak and hoped that he didn't break her heart.

Angel couldn't believe how much he wanted Buffy and how much he loved her. Wait! Did he just say love?! No, he couldn't love her this fast! He only had known her for a few days. But while he was kissing her and bringing her to the bed, the more he knew that he DID love her. He stopped kissing her and just looked at her face. When he saw her open her eyes and turn away from him, he knew that she was scared. He placed his hand on her cheek and felt the tears come to his eyes. He loved her! He really and truly did! He waited until she looked in to his eyes until he finally spoke. He opened his mouth, but couldn't form the words. He cleared his throat and thought, 'Here goes!' He said in a voice so low and sexy that he knew she would listen. "I love you Buffy." He saw shock on her face and hoped that she didn't run away screaming.

Buffy laid there for a little bit processing what Angel had just told her. He loved her!! He really did! Oh my gosh!! But, did she really love him? She couldn't decide! She knew she needed to say something and fast or Angel would become worried. She opened her mouth to answer him, but the phone ringing interrupted her. She growled. Angel would usually have been turned on, but now wasn't the time to be turned on really. Buffy picked up the phone and tried to sound happy when she saw that the person was calling at like 12:45 in the morning!

"Hello?"

"Hey, was he good?"

"What!? Who is this?!"

"Let's just say me and Angel are old friends. He loved the trophy girls, you know the blondes with green eyes? Wait that is what you look like isn't it?!"

"Look here girly, I don't care what you have to say, right now is not the time to be fucking with me!!"

"Okay! I can see that you are in the middle of a situation. So, I'll just say what I wanted to say and be gone. Angel will be done with you soon. He just uses you and then throws you away!"

Buffy laughed and said, "Oh really!? How come I don't believe you?!"

The girl on the other end said, "Did he tell you that he loved you yet? He always waits till the second time to tell you. He has tears in his eyes and then just tells you in such a sexy tone that you can't help but believe him."

Buffy stopped smiling and just sat there amazed.

The girl laughed and said, "Ha, I guess he has. Well, take my advice, get out as soon as you can. And, be careful. Goodbye Bunny."

Buffy heard the click and knew that the girl had hung up but she couldn't make herself hang the phone up just yet. She sat there, waiting for her tears to start falling and her anger to explode.

******************

Riley had just gotten back in the car when he heard his cell phone ring. He answered it in a sing song way. "Hello!?"

"It's done baby. I hope you appreciate my help."

He laughed evilly and said, "You have no idea. I hope that information on what Angel had said helped. I didn't get hear the whole conversation between you and Buffy, but I could tell by her face that you got to her."

She laughed as well, "I knew she wouldn't be so witty once I told her that little lie. Well, I must get some more sleep darling. See you soon. Or, maybe not now since Bunny will soon be in your arms again I assume."

"You can count on that. Ta-ta Darla. You were very helpful, in more ways than one."

Riley hung up the phone and smiled devilishly at what had just happened. Buffy would soon be his and he knew that he wouldn't lose her again. He would keep her forever if it was the last thing he did.

********************

Okay! I hope you all liked this installment! And the part where Darla says, "See you soon. Or, maybe not…" yes I am saying that Darla….comforted Riley while he was brooding over Buffy. I know that is weird, but I had to have her be a slut, just like she really is! And by the way, just to vent my anger, I am very upset that Angel had been cancelled! I do not know what I am going to do without a Buffy and Angel reunion! And, I also wanted to say that when the episode where Cordelia died, I actually cried. I hate her, don't get me wrong, but that is just sad that she had to go like that. Well, enough of that. Review!! Now!! Or I will keep rambling on!!! Hahaha! More soon!
