I had a rather boring day today. I was off school, ill :( Don't want to creep you out, so I will leave out the details haha. Heres the next part. Maybe you could all review and cheer me up ? :) x

"I'll go to the Magic Box, you go home," said Buffy, starting to walk again.

"No! I'm not letting you go there alone, not with all them there," replied Angel, jogging to keep up with her.

"Please, Angel," begged Buffy.

She came to a halt and looked up at him. Angel noticed the tears in her eyes and pulled her into a hug, stroking her hair. Buffy sniffed and wrapped her arms around his waist, bringing him closer. They stood there for a while, both of them were trapped in their own thoughts. Buffy felt heartbroken and rather sick; once again, she had been parted from her daughter to keep her safe. Cordelia had returned to LA with Phoebe, deciding that she was better off out of the way of the professionals. And her stomach had been bugging her for a while now, she was constantly being sick; maybe it was because it had been six months since she had been brought back. Angel was worried; mostly about Buffy, not wanting her to rush off into a pit full of danger and couldn't face loosing her again.

"Will we ever live happily ever after ?" mumbled Buffy.

"Hey," said Angel, placing his thumb under Buffy's chin and leaning her head up. "Course we will, don't think any differently!"

Buffy gazed into his eyes and smiled. She stood on her tip-toes and kissed him gently; it was her way of saying thank you. The kiss became passionate, it soon ended when they both needed to breath. She hugged him again, thankful of having him around. Buffy wondered what it would of been like if she had never told him about Phoebe; What would her life of been like ? Would she of been happy ? Would Phoebe even be here at all ?

"I better go to the Magic Shop. I'll be fine, I promise," smiled Buffy, stroking his cheek.

"I don't want to loose you again," whispered Angel, letting out his worst fear.

"And I don't want to loose you. But the sooner we fight this, the sooner we can get our daughter back," said Buffy.

Angel nodded; she had a valuable point. Buffy kissed him one last time, savouring his taste, before pulling back and sprinting off. Angel watched her go and sighed, he hated when he had to leave her to fight. He began to follow her out of the forest, deciding to head back home to see if the others needed any help.

Cordelia sat at the edge of her bed, looking down at the baby in her arms. She never thought she would see the day when a miracle would be born into this world. When that miracle was born from an unforbidden love. Cordelia was so happy for her friends, thankful for the reminder that anything could happen if you put your heart to it. Cordelia had noticed the change in Buffy, besides being a Mother now, but in her understanding of the world. Cordelia had made a decision, based purely on the magnetic pull she felt. She decided to move back to Sunnydale, leave LA behind, and begin a new life.

Cordelia checked on Phoebe oncemore before heading towards her wardrobe. She pulled out a duffel bag and began to shove clothes inside, the smile never left her face. After seeing Buffy and Angel with Phoebe, she decided that she wanted a life like that. And Cordelia Chase always got what she wanted.

Buffy stopped outside the Magic Shop. She watched it, like it was going to attack her, as she bit her lip. She was worried of entering, although pushed the feelings aside as she pushed open the door. The whole shop was dark, it had an eery feeling about it. She closed the door behind her and stepped further inside, biting her lip harder. She could feel her heart slam against her chest; even though she had lived in the darkness her whole life, the unknown of what could be lurking in it was still rather fearful.

"I knew you'd come," whispered a voice.

I apologise about the shortness! Its like 10, I think, and my Dad is telling me to get off the computer. School tommorow, sadly, and I have already been off today. But, please review still! Guess who you think the voice is! ;) x
