Disclaimer – Yes, they all belong to me. Note sarcasm

Dedication – To all the readers of this story. You've made me feel guilty, happy and sad all at the same time. Good on you.

Reviews – Um… duh.


Buffy clung desperately to Angelus; raking her hands through his hair, her mind only registering how good his lips felt against her own.

She sighed in pleasure as he moved away from her lips and started kissing and licking her neck, causing small waves of heat to rush all over her body.

Her eyes flew open and she shoved the dark haired man away from her.

Angelus stared at, his breathing shallow and quick. "Buffy?" He asked, after a moment, "What's wrong?"

Buffy stared at him, her hands balled into fists, "What's wrong?" She repeated in disbelief, "What's fucking wrong?" She laughed harshly, "I just fucking kissed my brother-in-law for the third time! And you're asking me what's wrong?'

Angelus frowned, "That's all?"

Buffy stared at him, "Angelus, you married my sister for a reason and, in case you've forgotten, that reason was because you loved her! I cannot go and have a relationship with you because I feel attracted you! It's insane!"

Angelus scowled deeply and threw his hands into the air in defeat, "Buffy, I want you so fucking much, that it's driving me insane! I can't sleep without dreaming about you! You are the first and last thing that's on my mind in the day! I need to have something with you other than fights otherwise I am going to kill myself!"

Buffy just sighed and shook her head, "No, no, no."

Angelus grabbed her hands and made her look at him, "Buffy, I am begging you, please. Let us have something. We can keep it all a secret and if you ever feel uncomfortable, we can stop."

Buffy wrenched her hands away from his grip, "You want me." She said suddenly after a moment.

He nodded in agreement, silently wondering where she was going with this.

"You want me." She looked around the study as if searching for inspiration, "That's it?" She asked, bringing her gaze back to his face, "That's all we have. You want us to have a relationship, for me to risk everything with my sister, because you want me?"

Angelus growled in frustration and ran a hand through his hair, "Isn't that enough?" He demanded.

"NO!" Buffy snapped, "You want me to have an affair with my own brother-in-law! I can't do that, it goes against everything I've been taught!" She stared at him, the helplessness evident in her eyes, "I'm sorry, but I can't."

Angelus closed his eyes, "Okay, you don't want to have an affair behind Darla's back?"

She nodded.

"Then I'll divorce her. I'll divorce her so we can be together."

Buffy stared at him, "You'd do that for me?"

It was his turn to nod.

"No. I won't let you do that." Buffy hissed, turning away from him in anger.

Angelus stared at her in confusion, "I thought you wanted me to divorce her?"

Buffy sighed, "I don't know what I want anymore." She whispered softly, hugging herself. She turned back to him, "Yes, I'd like you to divorce Darla, but not so you can be with me." She looked at him in almost pity, "Don't you see how even more wrong that would be?"

He glared at her coldly, "Fine. I'll stay married to Darla, but I want you to try Buffy. I want you to try being with me for a little bit."

"Behind Darla's back?"

Angelus paused before nodding, "It'd have to be. If you're really not comfortable with it, then we'll stop." His dark chocolate eyes met hers pleadingly, "Please Buffy!"

Buffy rubbed her eyes tiredly, "No." She said quietly, "I can't do that to my sister."

He stalked forward and grabbed her arms roughly, "Why not, Buffy? Mmm? Because she wouldn't do it to you?" He laughed harshly and shoved her away, "Well, newsflash Buffy, she did. With Adam and a million others."

Buffy sniffed, tears welling up in her eyes, "How do I know that you won't do the same thing to me?" She asked quietly.

"Because I could never do anything to hurt you." Angelus replied, taking her back in his arms and hugging her tightly.

Buffy breathed out slowly. "Okay." She whispered, after a while of relishing the feel of having his arms around her.

He looked down at her, "What?"

She raised her head and smiled slightly through tears, "Okay. We'll have an affair."


Thank you to everyone who reviewed Chapter 9 –

X-identaty – Thank you and thank you. I'm going to assume you meant 'Dawn' instead of 'Down' and yes, there will be blood. Lots of it. ;)

vanillagigglez – Right this is going to be all responses in one, cause I can't be bothered to right out a million trillion words. Right, basically all I'm going to say is thank you so much for your reviews and your emails, yours are the one's which I know are going to be there. Have you updated you story yet? I should check, shouldn't I? Will do in a bit.

dalmatiangrl2 – I'm glad you liked the chapter and don't worry about the Spanish thing, I have someone who can help me. Don't make it too much Spuffy? I'll try not to but I'll do a poll thing about it.

orangeangel – Will do. Thanks for reviewing!

buff – Thanks.

Nina – I wonder too. I'm sure we shall find out. You'll stop reading? Ahhh, I'll do a poll about it and see.

je t'aime angel – Thank you and I'm glad you do.

WarmTea – Don't fall off! Thanks for reviewing.

lessthanangelic1 – No, Angelus doesn't have a clue about Dawn. I'm glad you like it and that you think it's good. Thanks!

teehee32 – I'm sorry, they're getting shorter aren't they? I just have no inspiration anymore. Help! Anyway, hope you like it.

Fancifer Lore – Thank you so much! You're the author of All You Need Is Love! That was one of my favourite stories! I read it all in one night! Ah, wow. Will have to read that again. Thank you so much for reviewing!

Emily – Thanks! It was meant to be.

never look back – Definite confrontations. Thank you so much for reviewing.

julyhearts – Your English is fine, don't worry. Anyway, the story's been up for about a year now. Long time. And thanks for reviewing.

Kate – I'm glad you adore it and thank you for updating.

Buffy4592 – Well, Darla and Dawn certainly didn't walk in. Do you like it? I'm not sure. Anyway, thank you for reviewing and I hope you don't hate me anymore? ;)

Regan – Yep, they have, but for how long? Thanks for reviewing.

Bera-Moon – I am the Queen of Evilness. Maybe that should be my penname? I'm getting a bit tired of Wiccasweep. I hope I saved your nails. Thanks. ;)

nonsda05 – I'm glad you like it. I checked out Closing Time, it was good, but I prefer mine.

IrishAngel248 – Okay, I've updated. Happy? Good. Thanks for reviewing. :)

bella-lover - Thank you so much.

Celtic-Elements – There isn't much of a plot? Well, I'd like to argue with that. The fact that Buffy and Angelus feel an attraction towards each other and the fact that he's married to Darla is quite a plot. But, whatever, if you think that then that's fine. Thanks for reviewing.

Savannah – Thank you so much for reviewing!

angelsgrl – You love me? I love you too! Thank you for reviewing!

kim – Is this okay for you? Thanks.

Giulia – I might take you up on your offer. I have someone who will do the translation for me, but I'll probably get a second opinion just in case. Thanks for reviewing! Hope you nails aren't too damaged! ;)

-

Was that okay? I don't really like it much. Actually I hate it, but it will have to do.

God, it was short. I'm losing inspiration. Help!

If you could tell me your ideas of what you'd like to happen in this story, that would be great.

Anyway, I'm going to do a poll on the whole Spuffy thing, since a lot of you don't seem to like it;

1. Spike and Buffy just have sex.

2. Buffy and Spike have a relationship but it ends after a bit.

They are the best one's for me as they fit into the story. Which would you be more comfortable with and wouldn't hate me if happened?

But if you don't like either then email me or put in your reviews something that would make you happy. It has to include Buffy and Spike being together or atleast having sex,sorry.

You choose.

WS xXx
