Disclaimer: I do not own Buffy, Angel or any other of the characters that you recognize.
Rating: pg13 just in case. If you think it needs to be altered please tell me.
Summary: AU. Set after I will remember you. Buffy isn't with Riley she never was.
When she finds out she is pregnant, she goes to see Angel.
Some of you may be aware that I have posted this story before. It disappeared for a while because I wanted to re-work some of it.
Stands for thoughts
For this story just pretend that Buffy and Willow have an en-suite dorm room.
Also pretend that Buffy met Gunn when she ran away to L.A. at the end of season 2 of Buffy and that spike has already left Giles' apartment.

Buffy had lost track of the days, as she woke up that morning, after her latest bout of morning sickness, she realised that it was Monday morning and she had class. She was trying to ring Willow, but so far she hadn't answered.
She's probably in the shower, or at Tara's. I'll just leave a message
'ring ring' 'ring ring'
"hi we're not in right now so please leave a message after the beep, 'beep'"
"Hey will, it's me. I know left you a really vague note but I promises I'll explain when I get back later today, I'm just phoning to say I'm not gonna be in class today and could you tell my lecturers I'm sick. Thanks see ya later, bye."

"So are we actually deciding, or are we just gonna sit here all day. We only have a week left till Christmas."
" Alright, alright Cordelia, stop whining."
" Well I wouldn't whine, Wesley, if you'd just decide."
" I think we should have Christmas here, then Angel can cook."
" It'd be nice if you'd ask me first."
" Well you're the only one that can cook."
" Fine fine, I'll do it."
"You'll do what?"
Buffy said this whilst walking into the office after making her call to willow.
" Cook Christmas dinner. Did you get through to Willow?"
"No, I left a message though and oh my god Christmas is next week."
" Yep, we were just deciding who was gonna cook, we decided Angel."
" Good choice."
" You knew he could cook?"
"Well yeah Cordy, we did date."
Cordelia just shrugged. Buffy sat in Angels lap, whilst Wesley asked her
"What are you doing for Christmas?"
"I dunno, I usually spend it with my mom and the gang, but I think I want to be here. If that's alright."
"I love it if you were here."
"Great, then its settled, I'll come here for Christmas."
Angel kissed the top of her head, while Wesley and Cordelia carried on talking about what food they wanted for the day.
………………………………………………………………………………………
"Are you sure you have everything."
Buffy was going back to Sunnydale so she could be there for her classes tomorrow. Cordelia's driving her and staying overnight. Buffy had phoned the dorm again and this time Willow answered, they had arranged for Willow to stay at Tara's and for Cordelia to stay in the dorm.
"Yes Angel, I have everything, besides if I don't I can leave them here for next time."
"Ok. I love you."
"I love you too, I'm gonna miss you."
"Me too. I'll see you on Thursday."
Buffy and Angel shared a sweet kiss before pulling apart. Buffy got in the car, where Cordy was waiting.
"Bye guys."
"See you in a couple of days."
………………………………………………………………………………………
Buffy and Cordelia had just passed the Welcome to Sunnydale sign.
"Oh god, I hoped I'd never have to see that sign again."
"Yep, well maybe you won't have to do it that often, maybe I'll learn to drive."
"I think I'd rather see the sign than have the risk of you on the roads."
"I'm not that bad."
"Sure, you think that."
Buffy playfully hit Cordy as they carried on up the road.
"So, where to first?"
"The dorms, I'd like to drop my stuff off and I'm sure you have something to hang up so it won't crease."
"Good idea."
Cordy pulled into the campus parking area and they retrieved their stuff from the boot of the car. Buffy led the way up to her room and then let them in.
"Willows' bed is the one on the left. You can use my wardrobe if you want."
"Thanks. So what are we gonna do after we've done this. Go see the gang."
"Yeah, that was the plan."
"So you gonna tell them before your mom!"
"Yeah, besides she's away at some gallery thing. She comes back Wednesday morning."
"Ok."
"You ready to leave?"
"Yep, ready and dreading."
Buffy laughed
"It's not gonna be that bad seeing them again you know?"
"I know, its just Xander's questioning I'm dreading."
"Questioning?"
"About your pregnancy, he's going to be all like…you know"
"Yeah well, I'm the one who's gonna have to answer the questions."
"True"

Buffy and Cordelia were meeting the gang at Giles' apartment, which Buffy had to navigate the way to. As they reached the door they just walked in. The gang weren't there yet.
"Giles, you here."
"I'm right here Buffy…and Cordelia. What are you doing here"
"Hey to you to?"
"I'm sorry it was just a bit of a surprise."
"I drove Buffy back."
"When are the guys getting here?"
"They should be back any minute."
"Good."
"Can I use you bathroom?"
"Of course Cordelia, it's right through there." Giles said while pointing behind him.
"Thanks."
A couple of minutes later the gang walked through the door.
"Yo G-man. Buffster"
"Hey Giles. Hey Buffy"
Willow and Xander went over and hugged Buffy.
"Giles." Was all Anya said before going to sit on the couch.
"Anya."
"H-hello Mr. Giles."
"Please Tara call me Giles."
"Ok."
£So Buffy why di…"
"Giles, why do you have chains in the bathroom?"
"Cordelia!
"What Xander."
"What are you doing here?"
"I drove Buffy."
"It's nice to see you again Cordy, this is Tara and that over there is Anya, but I guess you already know her."
"Hey Willow, Tara and yea I know Anya."
"Can we please get to why Buffy wanted to talk to us."
"Sure as soon as you answer my question about the chains?"
"We used them to chain up spike. I wanted you guys here because I need to tell you something and I'd like it if it could go uninterrupted please."
A group of nods went around the room and everyone found somewhere to sit.
"Ok here goes. You remember at thanksgiving when Angel was here and then I went to see him. Well on that day Angel was turned human…"
"But how d…"
"I said no interruptions. We fought this demon called a Morah demon, he got away so we had to follow it, I checked outside in the daylight and Angel the sewers, the demons blood got mixed with Angels and it turned him human. We spent the whole day together making lov…um, well I'm sure you can guess. Anyway the next day the demon we thought was dead actually wasn't and came back, it nearly killed Angel and to protect me, he arranged, with the oracles, to have the day turned back, otherwise I would end up dying. We produced a baby that day and since the oracles can not take a life I got to keep mine and Angels baby. I'm pregnant. Now you can talk."
Surprisingly a round of oh my gods and congratulations went around the room, even from Xander. Everyone except Anya that is, she didn't really care.
"Buffy, this is amazing. You get what you always wanted. Ohh it can call me aunt Willow."
"Hey don't forget uncle Xander."
"I'm sure no-one could ever forget you Xander."
"Thanks Cordy, hey wait a minute was that good thing or a bad thing."
Cordy just shrugged and smiled.
"So Buffy, does this, uh, mean that you are back with , um, Angel?"
"Yeah Giles, that's why I went to L.A. to tell him about me being pregnant and all. I've never seen him so happy about anything."
"N-not too happy I hope, I mean…well you know what I mean."
"You don't have to worry about that, actually no-one does ever again. The oracles bound Angels' soul. He can finally be truly happy.
"Well. Good for him."
"And for you, now you can have your own orgasm buddy, like me"
"Um, sure."
"I she always like that?"
"Yep. You get used to it."
"Great."
