A/N: My friend, Sue, hates Joss Whedon for parting Cordelia and Angel. Although all of my BtVS and AtS loving friends consider Joss to be god, as do I, Sue stopped believing that after You're Welcome aired. So, here's to Sue M.
Xover: with BtVS
Summary: Set in season three of AtS, Angel has his humanity after saving a group of people who were very powerful, and as a reward for that, they turned Angel into a human. He confesses his love to Cordelia shortly after, and they are going out. But, what happens when one day the Scoobies decide to visit? How will Buffy react? (Note: No Darla, no Connor, no Wesley turning evil (In this fic, he is still with Virginia) and Gunn and Fred happy)
Parings: C/A, B/S, F/G,
Disclaimer: Do you have to remind me for the 100th time how unlucky I am to NOT OWN ANGEL!

/START/
Cordelia and Fred worked in the kitchen on Wesley's birthday cake. Wesley had no idea that there was a surprise party for him, he just strollded around, giving them clues. They couldn't wait till they actually gave him the the cake and said 'Happy Birthday' to him. Virginia had already arranged a lot of stuff in the garden of the Hyperion. Wesley wasn't the sunshine kind, so he didn't go to the garden much, that's why they chose to do it there, during morning he wouldn't go there, at night though, Virginia will take him there. Cordelia put the finishing touches on the cake.
"There! That should do it!" Cordelia said.
They both carefully put the cake in the freezer.
Angel came in, actually wearing white.
"Hey, hon" Angel said as he walked past Cordelia and Fred to the fridge and pulled out a beer bottle.
"Hi, sweetie" Cordelia greeted back.
"I hope you know, I said that to Fred" Angel smirked.
Cordelia sprayed some whip cream on him. Fred clamped a hand over her mouth. 'Uh oh' she thought. Angel looked at Cordelia and grinned.
"So, you wanna play, huh?" Angel stepped closer to Cordelia.
Cordelia ran at full speed and Angel followed her, both laughing. Fred walked out of the kitchen to see the war of the month. Cordelia running and Angel chasing her. Finally Angel caught up to her. She still grasped the whipped cream can in her hand. Angel raised her hand to her face, turned it around so it was facing her face, and just sprayed. Cordelia screamed out loud! Fred started laughing hysterically.
"Oh, my god! Angel, stop!" Cordelia demanded as her face became a whipped cream shrine. They both drop down on the couch, laughing hysterically. Angel still trying to make a big, fluffy, snow cone out of Cordelia's face. Suddenly, Fred cleared her throat. To that sound Cordelia and Angel both looked up and saw Fred pointing towards the door. What they saw next are the people they wished NEVER to see again. Standing a few feet apart the door were...
The Scoobies. And they had seen everything.
"You guys...?" Angel questioned, his face clearly showing how shocked he is.
Buffy looked hurt. While the others just looked plain shocked. A long beat later...
"Okay, why are you guys spraying each other with stuff?" Willow asked, her face a mush of surprise, shock, and confusion.
Angel looked down at Cordelia, who looked back at him. They both stood up and composed themselves. Fred threw Cordelia a towel and she wiped her face of the massive cream.
"Oh, um, hi" Cordelia tried to change the subject, and soon Angel joined her.
"What brings you here?" Angel said quickly, trying to hide any traces of nervousness, although it was clearly visible in his voice.
"Willow asked a question..." Buffy stared coldly at the two.
Both looked at each other, their nervous bubbles about to burst when (To Angel and Cordelia's much relief) Gunn came in with demon goo all over him. It was green and slimey.
"Yo, got any fresh clean towels or extra clothes?" Gunn said as he walked in, not noticing the guests.
"Uh... Gunn.." Fred pointed towards the Scoobies. Gunn looked at them, finally realizing. He nodded his hello to them. The gang's view shifted back to Angel and Cordelia. They both looked nervous, especially with one very pissed off slayer looking at them.
"Really, guys, what's up with you two?" Xander asked curiously. The couple's nervousness burst was once again interrupted by Wesley walking in holding a stack of papers. He notices the Scoobies.
"Oh! Buffy! How great to see you" Wesley said. He shaked Giles' hand, nodded his head to Tara, Willow, Dawn, Anya and Xander and just looked at Spike.
"Didn't give me anything but a look" Spike muttered. Wesley went to stand by Cordelia and Angel, knowing they were in an uncomfortable position.
"Uhm... We have rooms. Do you wanna stay?" Wesley said after a disturbingly long silence, hoping they weren't staying for TOO long. The Scoobies nodded except for Buffy who just coldly stared at the two very nervous people. "Okay then" Wesley, Gunn, Xander, Spike and a very uncomfortable and nervous Angel went to get the Scoobies luagguage.
Buffy stared coldly at Cordelia. Cordelia walked away from the scene, while Fred showed the girls to their room. An hour later, (When the introductions were done) the bags were in their respective owners' rooms, Xander and Anya had gone in the garden. Giles and Wesley were in Wesley's office, Dawn and Fred had gone out to get ice cream, Willow and Tara were up in their room and Cordelia was up in her and Angel's room talking to Virginia on the phone so Wesley's couldn't hear their conversation and Spike was in the basement with Gunn, so that left Angel and Buffy in the main hall. Angel was reading a magazine while sipping on beer. Buffy was staring at him.
'He never read a magazine before...' Buffy thought. "So, you never did answer my question.." Buffy said to Angel. Angel looked up from his magazine, and gulped. 'Boy I hope she doesn't stake me, or anything..' that was all Angel could think of.
Angel took a deep breath and started. "Cordelia and I are together" Buffy's eyes widened. 'Did he just day he was dating CORDELIA CHASE!' Buffy's mind screamed. "What!" Buffy yelled. Angel nearly fell off the edge of the couch, he cleared his ear and looked up at the now basically panicking slayer. The yelling brought Wesley and Giles out of Wesley's office and Anya and Xander out of the garden. "HOW CAN YOU BE DATING CORDELIA! SHE WAS HORRIBLE!" Buffy screamed to Angel. Spike and Gunn sped in from the basement. "Why Cordelia! Why not Fred or-or Wesley!" Buffy screamed not knowing what she was saying. Spike and Gunn blew with hysterica and Giles struggled to keep a straight face, while Xander choked and Anya didn't get it. Wesley glared at all of them. "Oh.." Wesley, defeated, went back into his office. Giles followed him. Buffy stumbled off to her bedroom, nearly breaking the stairs with her strength.
"Won't you go and get her or something?" Spike jealously questioned. Angel shook his head "She's gonna stake me" Angel and Gunn sprinted out the door.
"THEY'RE TOGETHER!" Xander screamed, but finally realized none of the fang gang were currently present in the room. "Do the people who I'm talking to even know one thing about the thing I'm talking about?" Xander looked around the room, NO VOLUNTEERS. "Okey-dokey" with that, Him and Anya went back to the garden and Spike quickly realized one thing, which a second later caused Xander to come back, a very confused Anya following him.
"Angel just went out.." Xander started...
"But there's sunlight outside.." Spike continued... They GASPED.
"THAT MEANS HE'S HUMAN!" They both finished.
Chapter End.
