The next few days went on without instances, except for the fact Angel has to leave for L.A. to close out the Hyperion, the day after Buffy fought that demon nest (Tuesday) and wasn't due back until Sunday. This made for a very angry Buffy, she had wanted to go with him but he insisted that she was needed in Sunnydale to protect her friends and rest because the changes would probably take it out of her. So she waved him off but not with out great protest and aggravation of being left behind and some scared doubt that he would not come back. It was Sunday afternoon and Buffy had finally stopped growing in her belly region, this was a relief, because the whole week all she could wear were Angle's shirts and his boxers, comfy yes but not exactly her favorite fashion statement. Today she had nothing to do, demons had been unusually quiet these past few days leaving Buffy nothing to slay and no excuse for leaving the house. Then the door burst open and Buffy nearly jumped out of her seat hoping that it was Angel, but then she looked out the nearest window and saw it was still sunny. Instead Faith walked through the door with Willow, Fred and Cordelia with many shopping bags in all their hands. And Faith with a huge smile on her face and twirling Angel's credit card that she had 'loaned' Faith this morning.
"It's great what you can buy with unlimited funds isn't it girls." She said with a laugh at all the girls' obvious consensus. "But then again it sucks when it's all for someone else"
"Well then who is it for? I mean you bought all this stuff with out buying anything for yourselves." She said surprise that this all was for one person.
"Well it's not like we tried, but Faith here stopped us in our tracks reminding us that we could shop for ourselves later." Cordelia grumble obviously not liking that any of it wasn't hers.
"Well don't keep me in suspense who is it that gets all of this." She said crossing her arms above her beach ball size stomach.
"Well B, you see a slayer has to look fashionable in any state. I mean what's a slayer without her clothes besides a naked girl who saves the world." She said laughing. "So B, I decided the way too big shirts had to go with you so I went down to the local Maternity store, or 12, and picked you up a few things." She said walking upstairs and putting all her clothing bags on Angel and Buffy's bed.
"Mine, all this is mine? Are you serious?" She said in almost a scream and dug her way through the mountains of clothing. She pulled out her many cute tops of mostly black and red some of them hater tops while others were just tee-shirts. Then there were the black and red leather skirts, pants and two new dusters. Then Buffy looked in the last bag and gave a big smile.
"Well what's an outfit with out a few accessories?" Faith said laughing at her own joke, as Buffy pulled out a short blade identical to the one faith carried and a new crossbow set, all black, with 'slayer' engraved into each arrow. "Ah, ahem, that's just to you know scare others" Faith said clearing her throat but smiling at the same time.
"Wow, thank you all so much I really needed this." Buffy said while making her way to the bathroom and soon emerged fully dressed in a black longer halter that had enough room for her large stomach and the red leather pants that had another stretch area for her belly all topped off with her new larger black duster. "Oh yeah, much better I feel like myself again. Oh but I found this in one of the pockets of my coat, what is it?" She said pulling out a small ring box.
"Oh, well that would be something that was my job to destroy back in A.I in L.A. Angel had come back with this ring that enabled a vampire to walk in sunlight and practically be invincible. The problem was I couldn't figure out a way to destroy it so I just hid it and told Angel I had it covered. Well now that things are, well different, I thought this would be my gift to you and him as a 'I am glad that your having a kid and settling down after almost three centuries'." Fred said she looked as though she was happy she could finally make Buffy smile which she hadn't done much since Angel left.
"So has anyone heard from Angel yet?" She asked almost desperately.
"Yeah B, he called this morning while you were sleeping and said he should be home right as the sun sets this evening." Faith said straightening Buffy shirt a little bit. "Basically, in half hour." She said looking at her watch unable to keep back a smile when Buffy's face lit up. "Girl you have it bad."
"Don't I know and you know what.I like it." She said giggling, and then spun around in front of the mirror once more checking the entire outfit for any out of place threads.
"Yeah, me too." Said a seductive voice from the door way. Buffy instantly turned around recognizing that voice in an instant and nearly screaming at the figure waiting for her.
"Angel! Your home, your home, when did you get back and how was you trip and-" She said but then was silenced by him as he walked forward and put one of his fingers in her lips.
"You can leave us now I need to speak to her in private." He said but they were already half way out the door. "Wow, you grew, uh, out since I left you." He said rubbing her belly and kissing her. "Oh, I missed that. I can't wait to get welcomed back officially." He said smiling at her.
"Angel, what is up with you your acting strangely." Buffy said backing up and then heard what she was sure to be a heartbeat. "You're not Angel." She said back handing him and then stepped back. She then headed over to the weapons chest at the foot of the bed and pulled out her sword.
"You bitch! Do you even realize how much that hurts?" Screamed the now whining Angel clone thing. But then was stopped when Buffy rushed him and pinned him up against the wall and kept her knee pressed up against his groin.
"If you don't tell me who you are and who sent you in the next five seconds, not only will I crush your groin but I will cut your head off too." Buffy said deeply aggravated that she was tricked like that. "Now who are you."
"I cant tell you."
"One."
"She will kill me."
"Two." She added a little more pressure.
"Ok, ok but you have to lie off a little. Thanks." He said then morphed back into his real self.
"Andrew! Andrew from high school? What the hell? When did you get into the evil?"
"Well just watching Practical Magic and Witchcraft without trying some out was boring to me so I did it and became pretty good at it and managed an evil job to kill you. Or more like lure you to your evil death." He said quite proud of himself. But the blade in Buffy's hand pressed down harder on his neck. "Ok, ok two vampires sent me. Geez, have you ever thought about anger management? I mean it could help."
"Andrew, I need names you have to get me names if I am to kill them." She said impatiently.
"Look, look I wasn't given names only instructions and a payment. I was on a need to know basis and I didn't need to know that." He said hoping that's what she wanted.
"What were the instructions you got?"
"Well, just the basics at first, like where you lived and what every ones names where. Then it got into specifics like Angels characteristics. It told me to play with your mind as much as possible without being detected and then in three days time to bring you to the Johnson's crypt in the cemetery by the school. In the instructions was a spell that would change my looks and voice to that of this guy Angel, he sounds gay to me but the money was good so, and a few strands of hair needed for the spell. That's it that's all I know." He said and then was let go.
"Faith!" Buffy yelled and the doors almost came off their hinges when the second slayer made her appearance. "I need you to take him into, I don't know somewhere, and tie him up for the moment. I'll tell you about it later or better yet have him tell you." Buffy said waving her to get on with it and holding her head again, headache coming back. And then not able to take the pain she fell on the bed and passed out.
"Angelus it would be much easier if you just came to our side, the pain would stop." Said the blonde vampire
"Never."
"Daddy as much as I like taking the hard road please just give up."
Angle looked up with a smile. "Oh, you made her angry, now you will meet the misses." He said grinning at them
"Buffy woke up in a sweat and in such anger that she could have killed the next thing that came through the door, but instead she went straight out the door grabbing her sword and ignored anyone who asked her where she was going. She didn't even remember what Andrew said so she didn't even know where she was going; she was just following the pull of her Angel. Finally she arrived outside the Johnson's crypt and started to kick the stone door in.
"See, she's coming and won't be stopped." Angel said, barely able to speak any longer and just hung by his chains.
"Do you think we can't handle one slayer, two ancient vampires against a nine-teen year old slayer? I think the odds are for us" As soon as Darla said that the door came down and a very angry slayer entered the crypt.
"Mommy is mad Darla, the stars say we should run and save this for another fight." Drusilla said quickly leaving.
"Not before I get a good piece of the slayer." She said grabbing the nearest sword and engaging in battle with Buffy, But before she even realized it Buffy had swung around, slashed at Darla's hair and had given her a hair cut. "W-what did you do? My hair! You little tramp how dare you. Oh I will hunt you down and kill you Slayer mark my words, but like Drusilla said not tonight, but soon." She said then ran out of the door.
"Hey baby, you look good. I hate to say it, but you know I don't, I told you I should have come with you." She said holding his face in and kissed him softly then broke his shackles and let him sit for a minute letting him heal a little bit. She debated with herself for a moment then made a decision. She cut her wrist and put it up to his mouth but he refused to drink and even glared at her. So this time she kissed him and cut her tongue on his teeth and forced him to drinks. Their tongues fought in a pool of mixed blood, mostly hers but some of his, which made her even groan, she had craved this for days now. After a few minutes of consecutive cuts and drinks she pulled away afraid to give anymore, but no more was needed he was almost completely healed.
"Hey baby, how are you feeling?" She said playfully and touched his hand.
"Better thanks to you, looks like you've improved since I've been away." He said then liked the trickle of blood that was at the side of her mouth and kissed her again. "Wow, look at you, you got me begging like a puppy dog and Darla and Drusilla making dust to get out of your way and a full grown belly." He said putting his hand on her stomach to fell his daughters kick. He helped her up, she could save the word and out run anything in the world but she couldn't get herself up from the sitting position. He laughed slightly to himself at that. "And look even new clothes exactly what my wife should be wearing." He said pointing to the leather clad woman standing in front of him that was carrying his child and still managed to kill a vampire every night.
"Oh ouch, glass." She said on the way home and started limping to the curb and half sat half fell on the sidewalk.
"What? Why aren't you wearing shoes?" He said noticing her bare feet for the first time and the bloodied one which she was babying.
"My outfit called for boots but they were to unstable for my, er, condition so I decide forget the shoes you need me so I ran out of the house and to your aid." She said and winced as she tried to pull out the piece of glass that had embedded itself in her foot.
"Now look at me, look at me Buffy. The whole giving me blood to heal has to stop, not to say I didn't mind it." He said giving her one of his famous smirks and kissed her again and quickly pulled out the glass at the same time. She looked down not even noticing what he had done and notice the wound had instantly healed itself.
"Wow, this whole having a kid thing and becoming almost invincible, we should have done this sooner." She said laughing and then let Angel up again. "Oh I have a gift from Fred to you by the way." She said as they rounded
"Yeah, well we will just have to do it again." He said smiling widely at her and her smiling right back at him.
"One at a time cowboy, oh I have a gift from Fred to you by the way." She said as they rounded the corner on Crawford Street to the mansion.
"Oh yeah, well what is it?" He said then she handed over the ring and he examined it.
"So we go to the beach tomorrow and then some shopping for our daughter, she is going to need a basinet and plenty of clothes and a dresser and a sheets set I was thinking purple or green or both.Angel" She said noticing he had stopped. "Angel what's wrong?"
"I can take my daughter to the park, I can take her to her first day of school, I can go with you to the beach I can help you plant a garden, our garden. I can go out in sunlight." He said just holding her hands but then pulled her into an embrace and swung her around. "I love you Mrs. Buffy Summers"
"I love you too Mr. Angel O' Connor." She said kissing him
"I want to get married Buffy."
"Well ask the girl I'm sure she'd say yes." She said but then got a look from Angel. "What, we are already married."
"No, I want to make it official, twice to be exact."
"Twice, What for?" She looked at him funny.
"Once your way and once 'our' way, the vampire way." He said coyly, he said then got down on one knee and grabbed Buffy's hand. "Elizabeth, Buffy Anne Summer, would you marry me?"
"Yes" She simply said with a huge smile on her face.
"No! You will not take him away from me Buffy, Angel is mine and you won't keep him from me!" Cordelia said from the window by the front door of the mansion.
