Summary: What would have happened if in the first season of angel, buffy hadn't gone during the ep. SANCTUARY to deal with faith...what if there was something else?

please review, it's my first so dont be too harsh, but i nned some reveiws for inspiration to write more!

Buffy finally spoke, "You should have told me what was going on."

Angel didn't really know how to respond to that. He wasn't even sure how he really felt, so he just went with "I didn't - I didn't think it was your business."

"Not my business?" Buffy was visibly displeased with his answer. How could it not be my business? With everything I went through with her, for her!

"I needed more time with Faith. I'm not sure.."

"You needed - Do you have any - idea what it was like for me to see you with her? That you went behind my back..." She was getting frustrated and pretty peeved by this point, and apparently, so was Angel

"Buffy, this wasn't about you! This was about saving somebody's soul. That's what I do here, and you're not a part of it. - That was your idea, remember? We stay away from each other." Not that he wanted to stay away from her, but god… she was just being so self centered right now. Had she only recently become this way, or had he looked beyond it all that time because he loved her?

"I came here because you were in danger." She tried to sound sincere, but she'd never been an especially good liar. That's not what she came for. She came to tell him.

"I'm in danger every day. You came because of Faith. You were looking for vengeance." That's what he thought. Sure, she would have loved revenge. But not now. She wanted to tell him what this whole thing was really about, but she needed control of the conversation first.

"I have a right to it." What a lame answer, I can't believe I said that

"Not in my city." What a lame answer, I can't believe I said that.

Cheap shot, but this will do "I have someone in my life now. That I love. It's not what you and I had. - It's very new. You know what makes it new? - I trust him. - I know him." I don't know why I thought that would make me feel better. Uhhg I hate myself. I just need to get to the point, not that he'll care after what I just said.

He couldn't even think right now, he was so hurt. "That's great. - It's nice - you moved on. - I can't. You found someone new. - I'm not allowed to, remember? I see you again it cuts me up inside and the person I share that with is me! You don't know me anymore. So don't come down here with your great new life and expect me to do things your way. - Go home!" He didn't know what to do. He still wanted her, of course he did, but why do they do this whenever they see each other. She should go home, he knew it was for the best.

Buffy wasn't ready to give up on this one, not yet. She couldn't just go home and forget about everything. He needed to know, he deserved to know. But first he was so getting a piece of her mind. "Then explain something me to, because now I'm way confused. YOU left ME so that I could have a normal life. Well, newsflash: I'm trying. That's the only reason I'm with Riley! To do what you wanted! This is pointless." She was so overwhelmed with emotions, she didn't even know what to do next. "Look, I didn't come here for Faith. I wasn't even sure that's what was going down out here. I came here to tell you that I'm three months pregnant and I know it's yours. I have that feeling that I get when I'm near you, that tingling in my spine, but it's all the time and I thought maybe you could tell me what the hell is going on. I wanted to tell you as soon as I got here but when I saw you with her, I lost my nerve I guess. I got messed when I saw you guys together, especially with this kind of news. I never thought she'd come here when she ran after what happened. Seriously, the whole 'Faith's back and crazy as ever' thing? Yeah, that was just an added bonus." There, she finally said it. She got it out. He didn't move or speak for a good 3 minutes. She was almost starting to get worried that he died or something, but then she realized… Well, what did you expect Buffy? God! You just told him you're pregnant with his kid, give him a break.

Oh my god. "Wha…how is that, because I cant…..I don't under- PREGNANT?" He was so overwhelmed. Shocked but excited, and even happy. But still, he knew what he had to do. He was gonna have to tell her about the day that wasn't. It was something he was dreading for all these months and now it came down to this. But he still didn't get how she was pregnant.

"Yeah, that was pretty much my reaction. I started having these really bizarre dreams though about" uhoh, here it comes…"us. We were together and everything was… well they were all broken up and I couldn't really tell what was happening."

"Why don't we go to my apartment and talk. I'll tell you everything."
