'Oh god' Angel's mind just raced. He had no idea what to tell her. 'I can't tell her, she'll kill him, and me, she'll find out eventually though, and I rue the day she does.'
"Angel?" She asked "what are you doing we have to get going."
"Right" Angel snapped out of his thought-induced trance, and finished packing the weapons, noticing Buffy had kept the knife at her side.
She sheathed the knife in her boot, where she kept her weapons when on foot. Walking to the door she grabbed her bags and motioned for Angel to grab the weapons bag. Both of them walked silently out of the apartment Buffy locking it on her way out. Reaching the car they both stowed their bags and got in.
"Where's your house?" She asked.
"4th and Main, its only a few blocks from here." He replied.
They drove in silence, and Angel packed in silence neither really knowing what to say. Finally Buffy picked up the phone and dialed as she reached a red light.
"Jimmy, hey its me, fuel up the plane and have it ready in an hour." She commanded, "Thanks a lot." She hung up.
"You still haven't told me where we're going." Angel said teasingly.
Buffy noticed immediately the teasing note of his voice and decided to play.
"Well you're just going to have to wait now aren't you." She laughed.
They finally pulled in to the private airport and Buffy parked her car in a reserved spot in the garage. They both toted their bags up to the plane where the door was open and waiting for their arrival. They boarded again in silence.
"All ready Miss. Buffy?" Jimmy asked.
"Yep, do you have everything?" She asked.
"Of course miss, I assume we'll be heading to the villa." He said.
"You know me all to well, call me if you need anything." She laughed.
"The villa?" Angel queried.
"Fine if you're going to bug me all night we're going to Rome. Its been my home away from home for years now and I love it, I hope you like Italian food."
"I do, Rome is beautiful." He said sitting down and making himself comfortable next to her. "So, I figure we're going to be up each others asses for the next few months I guess we should get to know each other." He asked.
"Not much to tell, probably things you've already heard anyway." She said.
"Where did you get the reputation that you did?"
"Training, I wanted revenge on the one who killed my sister, they snatched me up and forced me into training, or tried to at least. I was different they said, I took shit from no one and I didn't waste time with all their bullshit. I work for myself and always will, Giles is great, I take assignments from him on occasion, I've been mostly inactive for the last few months." She explained.
"Oh, and exactly how old are you I never caught it." He asked, she smirked.
"You really want to know??" She teased. "Well if you really want to know, I'm 18." She laughed upon seeing Angel's eyes pop out of his face.
"You're what?" He sputtered.
"18, 1-8 as in 10 plus 8." She laughed.
"But that's impossible, there's no way." He stumbled.
"Yeah I am, bet you never woulda guessed that one." She just laughed and sat back.ยด'I think I'm going to enjoy this trip.'
