She had to hurry, from what Doyle had said it seemed that this demon was powerful, she couldn't lose him again not like this.
Angel awoke to an unconscious Lorne and a nasty bruise in his temple "What the hell".
The demon looked up it had black eyes and a scar on his ear to his mouth "Be silent newly formed human" "Sorry don't follow orders well". The demon knocked him across the room.
'Never should've left the Hyperion' he thought. The demon raised a sword
"You will not fight in this apocalypse". Angel kicked the sword out of the demon's hands and caught in "I will but you sure as hell aren't" and he stabbed the sword into him. The demon pulled it out and tried to cut off Angel's head. He ducked and spin kicked the demon in the face. The demon once again punched him to send him flying through the wall. He got up and threw a piece off the wall through the demons scared eye. The demon exploded in a flash of light.
The demon's corpse revealed Buffy "Hey Angel" she said shyly. "Hey Buffy I'm sorry I reacted so fast about the hotel thing, but that was wrong of you to tease me, you know how much I".
Buffy smiled "I wasn't teasing you that was real Spike's was fake"
"Listen Doyle explained it" Angel's head snapped up at the mention of his friend
"Doyle is alive". "No he came to me mystically, him and Cordy say hi". Buffy smiled again "Listen Angel I was thinking that we could" "No Buffy not yet it's just too soon" Buffy put on her pouting face Angel again tried to be the stronger one "No not yet exactly let's wait". "Fine but let me explain what happened"
Few hours later
"So…another apocalypse wants us apart?". "That's what I got from Doyle he said we have to be distracted for their plan to work". Angel frowned "Us together would be a distraction"
Buffy tried protesting "No us apart would be the distraction, we wouldn't be able to concentrate. Whenever I'm around you and we're not together I get distracted"
"Then you have to go somewhere else apart and being in the same area would be a distraction and so would us being together, and how do I even know you and Spike are finished"
"Last I saw he was making moves on my sister, which is really disgusting now that I think about it". Angel explained Dawn's situation
Buffy tried to make the mood lighter "Still not less grouse, and I think we are meant to be together that would be the smallest distraction, or else it can take us one at a time"
"Buffy that's only one problem I'm not exactly willing to be with you right now". Buffy's expression automatically became hurt "Why I told you" Angel spoke again "That's not it I don't know it just seems like rushing and we both know how that turned out"
Buffy was confused "When did we rush?". Angel started to talk fast "B-back in Sunnydale when w-we first got together". Buffy continued pressing "That took us a year"
"I was hoping this didn't happen, I was human for a while when you came to L.A. to tell me to back off, what you saw happened was the second time"
Angel went through the story of him becoming human and their night together and turning back to a vampire
"So you turned back into a human so I would stay alive longer? That was stupid my life would've been filled with Riley and I have to tell you that guy has issues"
"I know but it ended bad and if I want this to last it should take a little bit" Buffy smiled "Could you cut the crap"
"How about we just start with some movies?"
Hyperion—one thing leads to another of course it started innocently but ended up…..
"Regan I know we can never be together but I love you"
"Don't worry Megan love conquers all including an army of vicious army of sesame dogs of hell"
Angel kissed Buffy "Sounds like us" "Yes but instead of vicious dogs we get demons and gods"
"I wish it would stay like this forever just you and me". Buffy added "The movie thing would get old and we haven't even gotten physical yet" Angel laughed "Don't tease me I'm trying to be sweet" Buffy looked at Angel "I love you" before Angel could reply Buffy covered his lips with hers.
The kiss grew deeper and as soon as they both knew it their hands were roaming each others body, every minute was pure happiness. They were so involved that they were litteraly ripping their cloths off. They were now naked in each others arms, Angel had started to massage her breasts, Buffy moan passionately at the sensation. After long, Angel finally thrust in and released from within her, until they were both pleasantly numb.
Buffy woke up the next morning without Angel 'oh my god this can't be happening again'.
As Buffy started to panic Angel opened the door with breakfast.Relieved she smiled"So this is what would've happened if we stayed together the night with the judge?"
Angel smiled "Don't get used to it". Buffy giggled "Why not have you find someone else" she said dramatically.
"I'd never stray from you, unless you started dating the Immortal again". Buffy almost spilt her milk from laughing "He hypnotizes everyone he meets. I was trying to stay away from him then he started stalking me until I let me guard down and he kidnapped me".
Angel looked concern "What did he do to you?"
"He never made it to my room, and I killed him after I found out he is evil". Angel laid down the plate on the bed "Hurry up we're going somewhere today".
'Hmmm what could Angel do to say he loves me' she though
"I got us tickets to the ballet". Buffy's smile flashed away for a second "Great" she said weakly. Angel picked up Buffy "I'm kidding some people will be arriving to make this the best day"
"Wills?". Angel smiled
"Your good but that's not al there's gonna be a werewolf all the other Scoobies, and Jonathan and Andrew are coming too"
A/N: Jonathan is not allowed to die! There's been a few things Joss has done wrong but Jonathan was the best! Besides bangel
"You are the best, and the only". Buffy and Angel got back in bed and ate, when they finished Angel held Buffy in his arms until they had to pick up the Scoobies.
Airport
Buffy was holding a huge sign that said "Welcome Scoobies and Oz"
Xander was the first out "Hey Buff" he hugged her. "So I see that dead boy is no longer dead, I'm gonna start calling you living boy" Angel smirked "I am about 250 years older than you, can't really call me boy". They shook hands not completely friendly though.
"Who's plane is next" Buffy checked the schedule "I think Willow's and Andrew's arrive at the same time, Giles is 15 minutes after that then one hour before Jonathan and Oz arrive"
Hours later
Jonathan and Andrew had a Star Trek convention to attend and Xander happened to follow them. Buffy, Willow and Oz were talking, and Giles was discussing Angel's transformation. While Spike and Dawn were mysteriously missing.
After about 20 minutes Angel announced that they were going to the beach.
Beach
Willow and Oz were taking glances and each other every once in a while. Giles was sitting under the tree reading a book. Angel and Buffy were playing volleyball. Buffy yelled to everyone "Me and Angel against all you". Willow and Oz got into positions quickly. Giles needed convincing.
"C'mon Giles have some fun everyonce in a while" Buffy said
"I'll have you know that reading is my fun, much more enjoyable than running around trying to hit a ball"
Willow sighed could you be anymore english?"
Finally they got him up. They stayed on the beach all day until even the Slayer was tired. "We better go back Angel's got a hotel, it'll be like a sleepover"
When they got back to the hotel Spike and Dawn were jumping tositt on opposite ends of the couch while watching a movie.
Everyone was going up to their rooms.
Angelasked "Buffy can you stay down here for a second"
"Ya Angel" she said seeing Willow's grin. Willow and Angel had been planning this for Buffy,when it was just them the floor turned to clouds.
Angel bended down on one knee "Buffy AnneSummers". Before he could continue someone stormed through the door.
"Riley?" Buffy questioned.Angel saw that he had a gun and stood in front of Buffy
"You bastard try to steal her!"
Angel looked confused "Aren't you married?" He lifted the gun "Shut up". He shot Angel and ran out the door.Angel fell to the ground. Buffy panicked.
"No, no Angel you can't not now Giles! Willow!"
