Chapter 4:Back at the hospital
Angel ran down three diffrent hallways to Buffy's room. He ran in and found Riley grabbing Buffy. Angel heard Buffy say " Get off of me". Buffy was struggleing under him. Angel walked up unnoticed and pulled Riley off Buffy. "She said to get off of her." Angel began punching and kicking Riley untill he passed out. Angel heard Buffy sobbing behind him. He turned around and rushed to her side. Angel pulled her into his arms. She started sobbong on his shoulder. "ssshhh it's going to be okay. His not going to hurt you anymore." Angel says rubbing her back. "No it's not he'll only come back". "He won't be able to when his in jail." Angel says pulling out his cell phone. Buffy looked at him "If a restraining order want stop him what makes you think jail will. He'll only come back when he gets out." Buffy says laying her head on his shoulder. "I need to call for back up" Angel says dailing his boss's number.
Rupert Giles was sitting at his desk reading a case file when he got a phone call. "Officer Giles speaking". "Giles it's O'Connor. I need back up at LA Memorial now. I caught Riley Finn. He started harassing Ms.Summers in her hospital room. I knocked him out before he did anything. I swear if know one gets here soon i'm not going to hold myself back when he wakes up." Angel hangs the phone up and throw it on the table. He than turned his attention back to a sobbing Buffy. He pulled her up into his arms and walked out of the room. He ran to the waiting room and over to the Summers family. "What the hell happand" Oz says rushing to his sister's side. "Riley came into her room unnoticed. He started harassing her again. I knocked him out and bought her out here." Angel says laying Buffy down on a chair. Angel sat down next to her and started to tell what he knew. "I was home when Buffy called my cell. She told me Riley was there. I told her to stay claim and I was on the way. You guys know the rest." "What do we do now." HAnk asks with concern. "I have back up coming to take him to the station." Angel says with concern. "Buffy honey did he hurt you." Joyce asks. "No not yet thanks to Angel coming to save me". Buffy said pointing to Angel. "Oh and I knocked him out the first time Angel got the secong time." Buffy says moving onto Angel's lap. Buffy laid her head on his chest and closed her eyes. "His going to jail this time right" Joyce asks with concern. "Oh yeah he already broke the restraining order. Now his just going to pay the consquences." Angel says rubbing Buffy's arms.
Just than officer's Burkle,Gunn,and pryce walked up. "Where's the suspect" Officer Gunn asks taking his handcuffs out. "Down the hall in room 2."Angel says pointing down the hallway. "Okay hopefully this will be the last time you see this guy." Officer Pryce says walking away. "It better be the last time" Oz and Angel both say at the same time.
In Buffy's room Riley was coming too. He was slowly standing up to be greeted by 3 police officers. "Riley Finn your arrested for breaking a restraining order and hit and run." Officer Gunn says hand cuffing him. "You have the right to remain silet,anything you say can be used against you in the court of law,you have the right to an atterney,if you can not afford one the state will supply you with one." Officer Burkle says as Gunn walked Riley out of the room. They were walking down the hall and walked by the Summers family and Angel. He turned to them and said "I'm going to get you Bitch". "Shut the hell up Finn." Gunn says pushing Finn ahead. Angel watched them go as Buffy cuddled closer around him. "He won't be able to hurt you anymore as long as I'm around." Angel says looking down at Buffy. Who was begining to fall asleep on Angel. So Angel decided to put her back in her bed. But once he put her down she tryed to grab for him so he decieded yo lay next to her.
Oz says "Hey no funny business with my sister. You hear." "Yeah,yeah don't worry". Angel said and laid next to her which after awhile he fell asleep with her. After awhile Buffy cuddled into Angel's side. About an hour later Angel woke up to find Buffy cuddled into his side clinging to him. Angel just thightened his grip on her. A few hours later Buffy woke up to see chocalte brown eyes staring at her. She strenched out in the bed. "Hey sleepyhead" Angel says moving her hair from her face. "Hey" Buffy says leaning into his touch.
About 10 minutes later Dr. Giles walked in. "Hey Ms. Summers how you feeling." She says walking up. "Better" Buffy says turning to look at Dr. Giles. "Well that's good cause we're releasing you in a few hours. You have been going great exacpt for the accident that happand earliar. We just got to get the papers,some bandages for you to bring with you and a pair of crunchs." Dr. Giles says. "Okay" Buffy says leaning up. "You'll be out of here in no time."
Angel turned toa still shaking Buffy. "You glad to be going home." Angel asks rubbing her arms. "I don't want to go home. I want to go with you." Buffy says looking at the far wall. "Buffy what about your family and college". "I don't care right now. I feel safer when I'm with you." Buffy says still looking at the wall. "It's okay with me but you got to ask your parnets first." "Angel I'm 21 not 11 I can do what I want." Buffy says smiling alittle. "Okay you got me". Yeah I hope so Buffy thinks. Than asks "So do you think it's okay that I go with you?"
"Yeah ,Sure." Angel says kissing Buffy on the forehead before leaving her to change. After she was changed she walked out and Angel was sitting there waiting. "Hey" Buffy said and Angel turned his head to see Buffy was standing there. "Hey,You ready?" Angel asked still looking at her. "Yeah"Buffy says walking with him to leave.
