Buffy walked into the coffee shop, "So this is the place where you want 'to talk like adults'." Buffy said making air quotes in the air. When Angel had suggested that they go and 'talk things out' she was suspicious, why would he need to talk these things out with her, did not he need to talk about this stuff to his 'girlfriend' aka her daughter?
"Trust me," Angel said, "it is a pretty good place, and it has great coffee." In spite of her self, Buffy had to smile. It had been a very long time since she had seen Angel, and despite the many less pleasant things that surrounding their meeting, she felt at peace when she was with Angel, a feeling that she had always had , and that would never leave.
They took their place at the table. Neither of them could think of how to start this awkward conversation, how do you talk to an ex that is now dating your daughter?
"So," Angel finally spoke, "how are things going for you?" "Great," Buffy said, "I have a great husband, a beautiful daughter, you know that Canala…" Buffy trailed off. "Of course you probably know all about my daughter?" Buffy tried not to let the bitterness in her show, but the tone of her voice said all there was to say.
"Buffy," Angel said, "I did not know Canala was your child." "I know," Buffy whispered. Then she said even softer, "would it have made a difference?" Angel looked at Buffy uncomprehendingly. "I mean, would it have changed how you felt about her if you had known that she was my daughter?" Angel looked at her blankly for a moment before saying, "No."
Buffy looked at him, "how do you expect for you to have any life together, she's mortal, you're not." Angel looked at her. "Buffy, do you know how many years I regretted leaving you?" "I don't see what this has to do with you and my daughter?" "It has everything to do with it. Buffy, don't you see I made the mistake of leaving one woman that I loved because I listened to her mother and others who didn't wish for us to be together and I don't intend to make the same mistake over." With that, Angel stormed out of the restaurant leaving Buffy with only one thought, 'he loves her!'
