CHAPTER V

Back in the hotel room

"Whoa baby that was. . ." Buffy was speechless. She wondered how she couldn't remember how good he was.

They had been in the bed for the past four hours, missed Capoeira and dinner.

"Well you weren't so bad yourself dear." He smirked calling her that, he knew she didn't like.

"Not so bad? Dear? Wow mister you are in for a hell of a ride." She climbed on to up of him and started kissing him on the chest.

"You are going to be the death of me woman. I need food."

Buffy lifted her head and looked him. "Ok. I'll get room service."

"No, sweetie this is our first night here, we are going to dine out. I'll take you to the very best restaurant." He turned them over so he was on to now.

"I can't argue with that, if my man wants to spoil me. I'll better get ready." She stood up from the bed and went towards the bathroom.

"Are you coming she asked?" teasing him.



"If I join you in here, we won't leave the room in time to find any restaurant open. Go ahead and I'll go AFTER you."

"Ok. Suit yourself I made a suggestion." And she run in to take a shower.

"Aaaaa. That girl will drive me crazy."

They managed to get ready after so much delay and they took the elevator down. Riley had to talk to the reception so Buffy simply wondered around admiring the beauty of their hotel. Suddenly she felt something strange, strange and familiar in the same time.

"Could it be?" she thought to herself. While turning around searching for the source that provoked such feelings

"Could He be around? This is impossible, or not?"

Just then Riley put her arms around her from behind. He was lucky she recognized his touch or she would have tackled him instantly and as a result he would be lying in his back.

"Let's go sweetie. I got the address of a great Italian restaurant that is open this late."

Buffy smiled at him so to hide her confusion.

"I must be confused. It can't be. I am sure I was wrong, I won't think about it again. Riley is saying something, I better pay attention. . ."

Angel had been watching from the shadows for some time now.

He had watched them from the moment they went out of the elevator; Angel had felt her presence from the beginning. At start he thought he was wrong but then he saw her with his own eyes, his Buffy in the arms of another. Just the thought of that made a growl come out of him. He had gone to check for any peculiar incidents at the hotel, only to find Buffy staying there. He had intentionally stayed in the shadows; he didn't want to make his presence known to her unless he had to.

For a while she seemed to acknowledge him, but then He, what's his name came along and took her away.

"I have to focus. I need to find the demon/human/vampire that is going to commit this murder." He thought to himself, and started looking around as soon as the "happy couple" left.

He had been searching for sometime but couldn't found anything that could be suspicious. At start they feared that maybe witchcraft was evolved but he couldn't found any indication of that. Then they thought that it might be vampire, he was a master vampire if there was someone else there he would have known. Angel left more troubled than he had entered the hotel, in addition he was thinking of Buffy.

"What if something happens to her, mustn't I warn her? She looked so beautiful, and happy. Is she really happy him this buffoon? He is a mere human, she deserves so much more. Wait that is what I wanted her to have isn't it? Oh what am I going to do? "



All these thoughts were racing through his mind, so that when he entered the Hyperion he couldn't remember taking his car and driving.

"I am glad you arrived in one piece." Cordelia noted after he told her of his little meeting and that his visit was fruitless.

All of a sudden a voice was heard from the back.

"You found it Giles."
