Chapter 5
Joyce Summers looked out the window, it was something she did every night when her daughter was gone. Knowing that some evil hell spawn could hurt her only made things worse.
"Here we are" Buffy said, smiling up at Angel.
They were now standing at the beginning of rebello drive; Buffy didn't want her mother to see Angel that would only cause more trouble.
Angel said nothing and but an understanding look on his face.
"Can you walk yourself home?" Buffy asked.
"I think so" Angel said, he could already stand on his own and needed no support from Buffy.
"So I'll see you later then" Buffy said, it was more a statement than a question.
Angel nodded, and moved back into the shadows, Buffy watched him until he was out of sight.
She started walking home as slowly as possible.
"What am I doing? I don't even know him that well" a voice in Buffy's head said.
"How could he know about vampires? Maybe he's a demon himself!" the voice in her head said, Buffy tried to shake the thoughts away, she never thought about this before why would she start now?
"I can't trust Angel! I can't trust anyone! I'm the slayer, nobody likes me" the voice in her head snarled.
"NO!" Buffy yelled as hard as she could, she grabbed her head and ran as hard as she could away from her house and away from rebello drive.
Angel was just a few blocks away from rebello drive, when he heard Buffy's scream.
He turned around and started running back towards Buffy's house, when he came near the park he suddenly stopped. Using his vampire senses, he could feel her she was very close.
He walked trough the park and found her lying on a bench.
"Buffy what are you doing here?" he asked, while kneeling in front of her.
Buffy slowly lifted her head her face was strained with tears.
"Come on I'll take you home" Angel said, he tried to help her up but she pulled back.
"No!" she said, new tears welled up in her eyes "please no" she begged.
Angel didn't understand what happened; he scooped her up in his arms and started walking towards the mansion.
When they arrived a short while later Buffy was asleep resting her head against angel's chest.
He carefully placed her on his bed, grabbed a chair and sat down.
Looking at Buffy's beautiful resting form.
A few hours later Buffy slowly opened her eyes, she look around not knowing were she was.
Her eyes stopped resting on Angel's sleeping form.
She smiled when she realized that he brought her to his own home.
Carefully not to wake him she walked to the bathroom.
"He wouldn't mind if I used his shower would he?" she wondered, glad that the strange voice in her head was gone.
She turned on the water, took off her clothes and grabbed a towel.
By the time she was done showering, Angel was waiting for her.
"Good……morning" she said looking out the window.
Angel was hidden in the shadows, on the other side of the room were the windows were covered with big heavy black curtains.
"I hope you don't mind but I used your shower" she said, with a smile on her face.
Angel simply nodded, and stared at her.
Buffy tried hard to avoid Angel's gaze, she knew he wanted to know what happened last night.
"Buffy…" Angel began not sure how to continue.
"I don't know what happened alright" She lied.
"What ever it is you can tell me, you can trust me" Angel said moving closer to her.
Buffy thought about what the voice said, she knew it was wrong, she could trust Angel, and there were thousands of reasons why angel could know about the vampires, weren't there?
"I was walking home and then I heard a voice in my head" Buffy explained with a sigh.
"What kind of voice? What did it say?" Angel asked, thinking about the voice that he heard earlier.
"it was a soft whispering voice at first but then it got louder and louder until it disappeared" Buffy explained, avoiding the other question.
Angel looked as if he'd seen a ghost.
"Are you alright?" Buffy asked, with a worried look on her face.
"I'm fine" he lied, this was serious, he had to find out what was happening and fast.
"Crystal" he said thinking out loud.
"Who's crystal?" Buffy asked.
Angel looked at her and said: "never mind, would you like some coffee" he asked trying to change the subject
"Yeah sure" Buffy answered, still wondering what Angel was talking about.
"No, she hasn't come home yet, should I call the police?...ok…thank you for your time mister Giles" with a huge sigh Joyce placed the phone back on the receiver.
She had been on the phone with mister Giles for over two hours.
Joyce had been up all night waiting for Buffy, but when her daughter didn't show up she really stated to worry, she called willow, Xander and Mr Giles, but no one knew were Buffy was.
"Please Buffy come home!" Joyce said, trying to reassure her self that her daughter was strong enough to defend herself.
