Thanks for the Reviews!
They spent the next six weeks being inseparable, in school they were together at each break and as the final bell rang they would spend some time before having to go home. Each night they either texted, spoke on the phone or got a chance to see each other.
Whenever they went out on a date they'd go to the arcade, go to the movies and even went out for a fancy dinner at a pricey restaurant. When it came time to leave each other she would pout, hating that they would be separate from each other for hours on end.
She didn't take any notice to the rumours that Cordelia had mentioned because if they were true he would try to take it further than kissing wouldn't he? A few times their make out sessions became hot and heavy, she felt herself pulsing with desire or felt the obvious hardness between his legs.
Yet he would never act or hint that he wanted to do anything further, it was usually then he would pull away and say goodnight. She wasn't sure if she was grateful or not, if it was far too early to take things to the next level but the things he made her feel was amazing.
Her hands were shaking as she gathered the courage to ask her mom a favour, Angel had mentioned that his mom and dad were out for the night at a party and asked if she would keep him company for the evening
Not that she needed her moms' permission to spend time at a friend's house but she thought it would be the right thing to do because he was more than a friend "Mom, can I ask something?" she watched as Joyce scooped out some fruit into a bowl for Dawn.
"I was wondering if I could spend the night at a friend's house?"
Joyce faced her daughter with a suspicious look, she was never this courteous "and who is the friend?" when Angels name was mentioned she frowned "and will Angels parents be home?" and she shake of her head she clenched her fists.
First she wanted to commend her daughter on not sneaking behind her back but on the other hand, she was not spending the night alone with a boy "Buffy!"
At the strained sound of her mother's voice she clasped her hands together "Please mom, he'll be all by himself, you let me when Cordelia was spending the night alone!
Joyce scoffed "That was different, Cordelia is a girl… Angel is a boy and I don't want you two spending the night together, its irresponsible!"
Buffy frowned, she was hoping that I would get the all clear leaving her time to pack "How is it irresponsible?" when she saw the eyebrow raise she wanted to stamp her foot but managed to resist "Mom, we'll have some dinner, watch a movie and I'll be staying in a spare room, nothing will happen!"
Joyce pinched the bridge of her nose, she was sixteen, she shouldn't be having arguments like this for many, many years to come "Buffy, I know what teenagers get up to, this may be hard for you to believe but I was one too you know"
She folded her arms across her chest "Can I say 'eww'? Mom, I promise nothing will happen… nothing has happened between me and Angel, all we've done is kiss… I'm not ready for anything more and he has never pushed!"
Skipping past the first comment Joyce sighed, she believed Buffy's words and was thankful that Angel appeared to be the respectable young man that he showed himself to be but still, this was her baby and she didn't want this conversation yet.
"No" when her daughters face fell she raised her hands as an act of peace "I will not allow you to stay the night but I am more than willing to extend your curfew till midnight, which considering the circumstances, is a helluva nice thing for me to do"
Buffy frowned once again not happy that this wasn't going her way "Okay, thanks mom" well at least her curfew was extended a little, that was better than getting a no and being told to stay away from him.
Joyce handed Buffy the phone "If you don't mind, I'd like to speak to Angel's mom if that's okay… I should at least get to know your boyfriends mother" she smiled lightly at the horrified look on Buffy's face and waited till the phone was handed back.
Oooooooooooooo
Angel sat on his bed flipping idly through a book, when Buffy had called he was shocked that her mom wanted to speak to his, since then it had been ten minutes and Kathy hadn't came to see him yet.
He looked over to the doorway to see his mom smiling kindly at him "Joyce is a lovely woman, thinks well of you… when will I get to meet Buffy?" he raised his eyebrow at his mom; she knew already that they'd meet on Friday.
Kathy came over and sat on the edge of her sons bed "Although she is lovely she is a little high strung, personally I don't see a problem with Buffy spending the night because I know you a respectable young man, aren't you?"
When he nodded once she smirked "But seeing as you two will be alone, even just for one evening… I want you to be considerate to Buffy and if things do happen to go further I want you to use protection!" she handed him a box of condoms.
Angel turned beetroot and looked at the box as if it was a disease and stuttered "MOM!" he got off of the bed and paced in his room.
Kathy raised her eyebrow at him "Angel, I'm not entirely happy with the situation either, you two are both underage and shouldn't rush things but If it does happen, then be responsible will you?"
His skin was still red from embarrassment but he was thankful for her being as lenient as she was, when he floated the idea to his parents he expected to be shot down but then again all his friends said that his parents were cool.
"Mom, I'd never push Buffy into anything she doesn't want to do… I don't think we're ready to go that far either" Kathy stood up and placed her hand on his shoulder, feeling proud that he was being grown up about the situation.
"That's what I like to hear, now get washed up for dinner, it'll be 20 minutes"
Oooooooooooooo
Buffy sat alone with Cordy out in the quad, they had been talking about boys, mostly; she wanted to ask her something but kept stuttering. Cordy raised her eyebrow at her friend "What? You've been dying to ask me something since this morning"
She let out a chuckle and rubbed her arm gently "Cordy, how do you know… when you're ready to take things further?"
Cordelia gaped like a fish out of water then clapped her hands together "Ohhh! You and Angel ready to get down and dirty?" Buffy slapped her hand over her mouth to keep her quiet as she looked around to make sure no one heard.
"No! Not sex… but just something more" she blushed as she thought about what those things would be. Seeing that no one was paying them attention she let go of Cordy's mouth and relaxed again, still facing her friend.
Cordy smiled kindly "It's different for everyone… does he make you feel all tingly when he kisses you?" when she nodded she continued "If he makes you feel like the most special girl out there, like there's only you and that's it… only you will know"
Buffy smiled gratefully at her friend, feeling glad that they had talked about this. When the bell rang she stood up "Thanks Cordy" she waved as she walked off to her next class.
Oooooooooooooo
Thankfully the rest of the day went in without a hitch, each class sped by, all the teachers for once never gave out any homework and then the final bell screeched prompting everyone to high tail it out of there.
Angel was waiting for her by the stairs at the main entrance; he was standing with Xander and Oz "Hey guys" she smiled kindly at his friends, they hadn't had a lot of chances to speak as the two of them were alone a lot but she liked them.
"Hey Buff-ster, spending the evening at Angels huh, would you like some company?" he looked at her then back at Angel and shrunk at the glare sent his way. He chuckled then cleared his throat, he decided he liked her, she was cool but clearly they didn't want interrupted.
Buffy frowned playfully "Sorry Xand, but wont your mom be upset you cancelled plans with her?" she punched his arm lightly then chuckled; Xander pretended that she had wounded him but laughed anyways.
Taking advantage of the moment of silence Angel leaned down to press his lips to hers "Ready?" Buffy nodded then linked her fingers through his as they walked towards the parking lot at the side of the school.
Buffy bit her lip as they came closer to his house; she had been here once or twice since they started going out, but never for long and not whilst his mom and dad were available to speak too. She had yet to meet them and was nervous.
"You'll be fine, they'll like you" she smiled at his attempt to calm her frayed nerves, he took her hand in his and kissed the top of it. Once they arrived he linked his fingers through hers and led her inside, his dad was busy last minute packing but stopped long enough to shake her hand.
Kathy walked out from the dining room and smiled warmly at the pretty girl that was hiding behind her son "Hello Buffy, I'm Angel's mom, you can call me Kathy" she shook her hand "It's nice to finally meet you" she shot a pointed look at her son.
Buffy smiled kindly at her "It's nice to finally meet you too Kathy, Angel has told me so much about you… you have a lovely home" she looked around the grand kitchen, loving how modern it looked.
Kathy patted her on the shoulder "Well I've left some money on the counter in case you don't want anything that's in the fridge, have fun and make sure Buffy gets home safe later tonight okay?" she leaned down to kiss Angel on the cheek making him blush.
They said their goodbyes then waved them off as his parents headed away for the evening. Angel faced Buffy and smiled "Come on, I'll give you the grand tour" once again their fingers twined as he showed her around the house.
They did a tour of the ground floor then the upper floor, leaving his bedroom for last. It wasn't what she expected, on the far wall was a floor to ceiling bookshelf filled to the brim, the colours of the room were dark and the bed was grand, covered in silk sheets.
She tipped her head at the silky bed covers and smirked, Angel shrugged "What? They look cool" Buffy nodded in fake agreement and chuckled, she looked around the rest of the room, mentally noting everything.
They raided the fridge to see what was to eat but couldn't decide on anything there, eventually they phoned takeout to be delivered to the house; which was ate quickly. They had overestimated their hunger, leaving almost a full meal that was placed in the microwave.
As the night wore on they remained in the living room, watching a movie on the big screen TV that hung upon the wall. They talked and joked, having a good time; Buffy excused herself as she went upstairs to use the bathroom.
When she came out she saw the light on in Angel's room, she stepped inside and closed the door over; he was tidying away the school work that was dumped as soon as they had got home "Hi" she smiled lightly at him.
Angel turned to face her and smiled too "Hi" she went over to the sound system and pressed play, soft music came from the speakers that lined the wall "Thank you for coming over, this night would have been so dull otherwise"
Buffy scrunched up her nose then made herself comfortable on his bed, Angel stalked over and lay beside her so that they were facing each other. She scoffed playfully "You should be grateful I could be at the bronze right now"
Angel smirked at her "Is that right, huh?" his hands went to her sides and tickled her thoroughly. Buffy giggled uncontrollably trying to swat him away "Angel, stop!" she tried to roll away but he came straight after her.
She tried to get the upper hand on him by trying to push him away, he didn't budge. Angel closed his eyes when she ground against him, suddenly all the playfulness escaped them.
Buffy watched as he reopened his eyes, they had become darker, the same kind of dark when their make-out sessions got a little bit heavy. His fingers traced her face then he ran his thumb over her bottom lip just before he came down to kiss her.
It started off innocent enough, just a few closed mouth kisses then he grunted in delight when she opened her mouth and accepted his tongue inside. When he ground against her again it fired her blood, Buffy moaned loudly against his mouth then pulled back to look at him.
She was a mix of feelings, this was exciting, her pulse was racing but she was little scared of where this might lead to. Angel's hand came down to her hip then slid beneath to cup her ass; all she could do was smile when he lifted her to rub against his groin.
Encouraged by the lazy half smile on her face he came down to kiss her fiercely, Buffy matched the rhythm of her hips with the rhythm of their tongues. It wasn't long before her leg came up and hooked onto his waist, he looked down at her in question, hoping that this wouldn't end.
