Chapter 5: Angel's place
"So...," Buffy said looking at Angel as he helped her in. After he shut the door he asked "So do you want a tour of the place?" "Sure" Buffy said looking around from where she's standing. From where she's standing she looked at the living room. He took her hand and left her bag by the door. "This is the living room," Angel says and than walked straight and through a doorway and said "This is the kitchen". Than walked back into the living room and turned right down a hallway and than turned to the first door on the right and said "This is the bathroom" Than turned to his left and said "This is my room and next to it is the guestroom".
"Oh cool" Buffy said as she turned and walked back into the living room and sat down on the couch and relaxed. As Angel came in and sat down next to her. "So how do you like my place?" Angel asked as Buffy rest her head back and looked at the picture that was to the left side of her and said "It's nice and comfy plus that's a nice picture right there." Buffy said pointing at the picture that she was looking at. "I did that" Angel said while Buffy just looked at him.
"So who are they?" Buffy asked still looking at him. "That's my mother and my sister" Angel said looking at the picture. "So you draw that's something new about you. But why do you work for the law?" Buffy asked looking back at the picture.
"Because I just wanted to do something new" Angel says looking at her. "Oh, so what are they doing now?" Buffy asked "Well my parents died in a car crash 3 years ago and my sister is a law student at UCS." Angel says looking at his hands now. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said anything." Buffy said giving Angel a hug. "It's okay. You just asked that's all." Angel says than said "You should go and relax since your still injured". "Okay, Where do I stay." Buffy asked. "In the guestroom if you want." Angel said.
"Okay" Buffy said getting up to go change into comfy clothes and than went into the bed and than tried to sleep for a short amount of time to sleep and finally it came and she fell asleep. Buffy fell into a restless sleep cause of all the nightmares she was having about the crash.
In her nightmare: She was driving to her parents house from college. When she was hit by a ford. Her car flipped a few times and hit a telephone pole. Before anyone could get there to help her the telephone pole dropped onto the car. It burst into flames. And she died instantly...
"NOOOOOOOO"Buffy screamed jumping up from her nightmare. She was trembling in fear and had tears coming down her face. Angel rushed into the guestroom to find a very shaken Buffy. He rushed to her bedside "Buffy baby what's wrong?" She just continued crying slight tears. He took her into his arms and whispered sweet nothing's into her ear. Finally Buffy claimed down enough to speck to him. "I had a nightmare about the crash. How NO one got there in time and the telephone pole fell onto my car. It burst into flames with me in it. I died instantly." She says laying her head down on his shoulder. "SSSHHH everything is going to be okay.' Angel says rubbing her lower back over and over again. She looked up at him and said with trembling lips "Stay with me please." "Of course baby I'm not going anywhere." I laid back on the bed and took her into my arms. I pulled the blanket over both of us. She fell asleep not to long after they laid down. Buffy cuddled into his side and laid her head down on his chest. Angel watched her sleep for a little while until he fell asleep himself.
About 3 hours later Angel woke up. He noticed that Buffy was still asleep next to him. He gently laid her head down on the pillow and got out of the bed. He slowly walked out of the room and into the living room. He picked up the phone and dialed a very familiar number. Which was his sister's cell. After a few rings she picked up. "Hello". "Hey Cordy" Angel says softly into the phone. "Angel hey what's up?" Cordy asks Angel with a crippy voice. "I think I'm falling in love Cordy." "What,who,when,where" Cordy asked a little to much for Angel's likening. "Let's see I'm falling in love with a girl that I only meet yesterday afternoon. We meet on the LA interstate. She was in a hit and run. I was the first person on the scene. I had to get her out of the car before the telephone poll fell on top of it. She came out lucky compared to the car." Angel says with a shaky voice. "Oh my god is she okay" Corsy asks showing some feelings. " Yeah just a concussion,freatured Ankle ,And Badly bruised ribs." "That's good. Now does this girl have a name." Cordy asked with a smile to her voice. "Yeah Cordy her name is Buffy Summers. She's a 21 year old student from UCS." Angel says with a smile. "Wait a second I know her she's in my class. She's a nice girl." Cordy says with shock. "Thanks Cordy. I got to go. I just wanted to return your call before you killed me." Angel says to his sister. "Okay bye." Cordy says hanging up. Angel hung up and than went into the kitchen. He began making breakfast. Today he was making eggs and toast.
Buffy woke up to an empty bed and got scared. Mostly cause last time she was alone Riley was trying to rape her. But than she smelt the eggs and toast. That put a smile on her face. She slowly grabbed her crutches and went into the kitchen. She saw Angel just finishing making breakfast." "That smells good" Buffy says watching him jump 2 feet off the ground. "Buffy Jesus you scared me" Angel says quickly turning around. "And your supposed to be a cop" Buffy says laughing at him. "Hey you just caught me off guard." "Really and what if that happened while you were out in the field." Buffy asked getting serious again. "Okay I see your point. You hungry.' Angel says . "Yeah starving. Hospital food sucks.' Buffy says slowly making her way over to the table. "I know what you mean" Angel says putting eggs and toast on her plate and his.
"What do you mean you know what I mean." Buffy asked taking a bite out of her eggs. "I mean I was in the hospital for a week for a shot to the right side of my chest and a busted leg.' Angel says taking a bite of his eggs too. "Wow how did that happen?" Buffy asked looking at him. "I busted my leg by chasing the enemy and fell to hard and brushed my leg while he shot at me.' Angel said than asked "Milk or orange juice?" "Orange juice please." Buffy said as Angel poured orange juice in two cups and than gave it to Buffy. He than sat down with his and finished eating with Buffy.
Than the phone rang and Angel had to leave to go to work. "I have to head into work for a little while. If you need me call my cell phone okay." Angel says putting his jacket on. "Okay bye." Buffy says watching him grab his keys and phone.
