Two Days Later
"So.. Wills, how far have you gotten with the curse?" Xander asked as the Scoobies sat at the library.
"I've got everything except for an Orb of Thesula." She said looking down at the paper.
"I have one of them. I've been using it as a paper weight." Giles said as he entered his office and brought out a glowing ball. "Here you go." He said handing it to the red head.
"Thanks." Then she turned to Buffy. "When do you want to do this?"
"I need another night. I want to give Angelus another night. I need another night." She said looking glum.
"Okay." She replied knowingly.
Later that Afternoon
The Mansion
Buffy walked up Crawford Street and stopped in front of Angelus' mansion. She lifted her hand up and knocked on the door. She waited and then heard someone yell, "It's bloody well open."
Buffy opened the door and slowly entered. "Umm. Angelus?" She called.
"He's in his room slayer." Spike said from his spot in his wheelchair.
Buffy turned and looked at him. "Oh. Umm. Where is that?" She asked as she gripped the stake in her jacket pocket.
"Right in there luv." Spike said pointing to Angelus' room.
"Okay. Um thanks Spike." She said as she moved to the door
"No problem." He answered.
Angelus heard a soft knock on his door. Grumbling he got up and opened the door. He saw Buffy and his brows furrowed. "What's wrong? Why are you here?" He asked worried as he pulled her into his room and shut the door. He turned to her and placed his hands on her stomach. "Are the babies okay?" He asked.
"Yes. They are. Nothings wrong. I just thought that you would want to know that, Willow finished getting the things ready for the curse." She said as she moved to sit on his chair.
"Oh." Is all he could think to say.
"Do you still want to do this?" She asked him.
"Not really. But I want you to be happy and I know that Angel makes you happy."
"So do you." She said softly.
Angelus looked down at her. "You mean that?"
"Yes." She said looking him in the eyes.
"Well I think this is the best thing, for the babies." He said looking her in the eyes.
"Why?" She asked.
"Because they need a dad with a soul, besides, Angel deserves some happiness after all the pain I've caused him. It's the least I can do. Besides I still get to see my children." He said with a small smile.
"I guess."
"When's she gonna do it?" He asked sitting on his bed.
"Tomorrow. Before the sun rises."
"You mean tonight's my last night?" He asked.
"No. I mean tomorrow night will be your last night. You'll go to sleep you, and wake up Angel." She told him.
"Oh. Okay. Less pain then." He replied.
"Pain?" She asked with a worried expression.
"Only a little bit. Nothing I can't handle." He said laying a comforting hand on her shoulder. After a moment of silence he spoke again. "I can't believe you actually came over here." He said with a soft chuckle.
"I. well it's defiantly the first time I've come to a vampire's lair and haven't killed any vamps." She said laughing.
"Well I guess there's a first for everything."
"Yeah, especially with Spike. I mean a vamp in a wheel chair. It's kinda funny."
"I heard that Slayer!" Spike yelled from the other room. Buffy just looked at Angelus and laughed even harder.
