Chapter 10: Merger

It had been about 11 months since Angel had proposed to Faith, and the wedding was only two weeks away. Faith couldn't wait, they had planned everything together, along with some suggestions from their friends.

&&&&&&&&

Angel woke up, Faith was not next to him in bed, he could hear the shower running. He checked the time, it was 10:00. They had to be at Wolfram and Hart in one hour, there was a party celebrating the merger of Wolfram and Hart and another Law Firm, whose name Angel could not remember.

Faith walked out of the bathroom, towel wrapped around her body, Angel watched her, he followed her with his eyes. She looked at him, as she bent over to get into the lower draw of the bureau. She took out a black dress.

"Shouldn't you be getting dressed too?" Faith said with a smile on her face.

"Yeah, but it doesn't take me an hour," Angel said watching her.

"Well, if it wasn't formal it wouldn't take me an hour either," Faith said walking back into the bathroom, dress in hand.

Angel got up and grabbed his bathrobe, he walked into the nursery. He waked over to the crib, Connor was still sleeping. He left the nursery, and entered the kitchen, he opened the fridge and pulled out a bottle of baby formula. He put it in the microwave and heated it for 30 seconds. When it was finished, Connor was awake. 'Same time as always' Angel thought as he walked back into the nursery. He picked Connor up and fed him.

&&&&&&&&

Angel and Faith left around 10:45, they left Connor with a babysitter. They arrived at Wolfram and Hart at 10:55.

"Time to put on a fake smile," Angel said as they got out of the car.

"So Wolfram and Hart are merging with what Law Firm?" Faith asked.

"I…dunno, just keep your comments to yourself," Angel said kissing her.

Faith and Angel walked into Wolfram and Hart, the place was really done up, she looked around in awe.

"So this is where you work?" she asked.

"My office is up stairs, but yeah, this is where I work," Angel said.

Faith took one last look around, her eyes landed on something she didn't like. Someone she thought she left behind. Someone from her past.

So review, please tell me what you think. I don't think I'll be able to update again until after Christmas. Happy Holidays to all.
