Chapter 4
PREVIOUSLY: Buffy and Dean were so caught up in one another, that neither of them noticed that they were being
watched from the shadows.
Back to the Chapter
"Are you okay?"
"Yeah, my head broke my fall."
"I am so sorry," Buffy said noticing the bruise slowly starting to form on Dean's head.
"No, it's my fault, I never know when to quit."
"Yeah well I never know my own strength."
Buffy was so wrapped up in Dean's eyes that she didn't see Angel appearing from the shadows.
"Hello Buffy," said Angel
"Angel, what are you doing here and don't give me that "I'm just checking up" shit."
"Buffy, can we talk somewhere in private."
"No, Angel, anything you have to say to me, you can say in front of Dean."
"Okay...Buffy can we please go somewhere private and talk," Angel said in that whiny why can't the attention be on
me.
"I'm Dean and you are...?"
"I'm Angel, Buffy's boyfriend."
"Ex-boyfriend. Look Angel..."
"Buffy, we really have to get going."
"Oh, shit that's right, your dad and Sam are waiting for us back at the house."
"Look Angel, why don't you meet me at Cesario's tomorrow around 1. We'll talk then okay."
"Fine."
Buffy was so wrapped up in helping Dean that she really didn't care to see if Angel had already left.
"Are you sure you're okay."
"Yeah my head broke my fall."
"So not funny, let's get you to my house."
"I told you I'm fine."
"God I am so sorry about Angel, he can be a bit of a..."
"Poofhead, yeah I figured."
"Wait, where did you hear that word?"
"I heard it earlier and it just seem to apply to him.
"Yeah it's what Spike calls him as well."
"Who's Spike?"
"He's kind of my ex. We had this thing about 2 years ago and it ended bad."
Dean flashed her the "tell me more" look.
"It happened during a bad part of my life."
"Okay, I didn't mean to press, I'm sorry."
"No, it's okay. I just don't really like to talk about it."
"Again, I'm sorry."
As they continued talking, they didn't notice a pissed off John and Sam on the front porch.
"So, what took you guys so long," asked Sam
"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO YOUR FACE," yelled John, noticing the bruise forming on her face.
"Dad, don't yell. There was a demon and we got attacked, I got thrown and my face caught a headstone."
"I'm sorry, I just..."
"I know."
"You okay, Dean."
"Yeah Sammy, I'm fine."
"Okay guys, why don't I show you around. There are two spare bedrooms and well, there's the couch."
"That's fine, umm, I'll take the couch," said Sam.
"Okay, I'll grab some sheets and blankets for you, and I'll show John and Dean their rooms."
"Dean, I really don't think you should be left alone, you might have a concussion," said Buffy.
"I'm fine, really."
"I agree," said John.
"I said I'm fine, Dad."
"All right, jeez."
"Let's bring the level of testosterone down a bit. Here you go Sam," said Buffy handing Sam
the blankets.
"Thanks, Buffy," said Sam
"You're welcome. Okay, I'm going to bed, I'll see you guys in the morning. Night, Dean.
Sam, John, good-night."
"Good-night Buffy," said the Winchester men.
"I'll see you in the morning guys."

Chapter 5
"Good morning guys," said Buffy as Dean, Sam and John walked into the kitchen.
"Morning," replied the Winchester Men.
"How'd you guys sleep?"
"Fine," said Dean "You?"
"Fine, okay, we have pancakes and cereal, of course. The plates are in the cupboard and there's fresh coffee and orange juice in the fridge. Help yourself, I'm gonna go take a shower. Also there is enough for seconds so help yourself."
"What about you," asked Dean
"I've already eaten, besides I have a meeting that I have to get ready for."
"Ok, thanks," said Dean.
"No problem," said Buffy as she disappeared up the stairs.
"What meeting," asked John
"Oh, a business meeting with an old colligue," lied Dean as he took a bite of his pancakes.
"Huh," said John.
"What kind of business?"
"I don't know Sammy, I didn't ask."
MEANWHILE UPSTAIRS
"God I so don't want to do this. Why does he always have to show up and throw my life into complete and utter chaos? Why does he have to reck everything I've work so hard to acheive? I have finally moved on completely and he just shows up out of no where expecting me to take him back. Last night was great, I got to actually have a decent conversation with a man without any demon talk for once and it get interrupted by a demon and then Angel goes and fucks up this moment between Dean and I. God all I wanted to do is just kiss him, his lips looked so kissable and his eyes god, his eyes I was completely lost in them. Uhhh, I have to hurry up, this damn thing better be over fast. Then I can be rid of him, finally free of Sir Broods Alot."
BACK DOWNSTAIRS
"So, Dean, you and Buffy looked pretty wrapped up in conversation as you guys were walking up to the house," said Sam.
"We were, but... it's comicated Sam."
"How is it complicated?"
"Her ex is back in town and I can tell he wants her back and I just..."
"What? It's not like she's yours."
"You weren't there Sam, you didn't see what went down and there was something between us and I guess I kind of feel threatened by this guy. I guess I have this need to just protect her from him."
"Wow!"
"What?'
"You hit your head pretty hard last night, didn't you?"
"Shut up Sammy!"
"I'm sorry, it's just you don't sound like yourself. I don't know I guess it's weird."
"What's weird?"
"How serious you're acting. Your acting like..."
"Like what?"
"Like you're in love. I have never seen you act like this, over any of your girlfriends."
"Really, maybe it's... no it can't be, I mean we just met and it's too fast and I..."
"Calm down, no one said you had to get married tommorrow. It just might be the real thing."
"How do I know Sammy?"
"You just do."
"Hey guys," said Buffy interrupting the conversation. "Uh Dean, can I talk to you for a minute."
"Sure," said Dean pulling Buffy to the side. "What's up?"
"Can you come with me, to meet Angel. It's just that I don't trust him and I would really feel safe if you were there with me."
"Okay, just let me go get changed."
"Thanks, I really appreciate it."
"No problem. I'll be right back."
"What was that all about," asked John
"Nothing, I just asked Dean if he'd come with me."
"To the meeting?"
"Uh.. Yeah, it's just I don't feel safe meeting this person alone and I'd feel better if someone was there with me."
"Oh, who's this person you're meeting."
"Just an old friend."
"Old boyfriend you mean."
"Yeah, umm...
"Oh, SO YOU'RE USING MY SON TO MAKE HIM JEALOUS."
"No, John it's not like that."
"REALLY, CAUSE THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I THINK IT'S LIKE. YOU WANT THIS OLD BOYFRIEND OF YOURS BACK, SO YOU FIGURE DEAN'S A GOOD WAY IN DOING SO. WELL NO FUCKING WAY IS THAT GOING TO HAPPEN, I WILL NOT LET YOU DRAG MY SON INTO THIS LIFE OF YOURS."
"DAD, that's enough," said Dean walking back into the room. "WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT I AM IN THIS LIFE AS IS SAM. I'VE BEEN IN THIS LIFE SINCE THE DAY MOM DIED REMEMBER..."
"Dean, calm down," said Buffy grabbing a hold of Dean's arm.
"Sorry, I'll be back later."
"Dean..."
"No Dad, no. Let's go Buffy," said Dean leading Buffy from the house.

Angel jealousy and More John being completely insensitive. I don't own Cesario's, Shakespere does but in this case it's a restaurant and I don't own Buffy or Dean, though I wish I owned Dean.
Chapter 6
"I'm sorry about how my dad acted back there."
"No, it's fine, he's just being a dad.
"But still, he had no right to yell at you the way he did."
"Well thank you. I don't think I've ever had someone stick up for me, well as fast as you anyway."
"It was my pleasure. So you really don't trust this Angel guy do you?"
"No, not anymore."
"Why not?"
"He works for an evil lawfirm and I just stop trusting in him ages ago."
"Oh, wait an evil lawfirm?"
"Yeah, it's called Wolfram and Hart."
"I've heard of them. Well you're right about one thing,it is an evil lawfirm."
"Soooo,..."
"Well.."
"Why is this so hard, I mean talking to you?"
"I don't know," said Dean turning to face Buffy. "But what I do know is that I like talking to you."
"Me too."
"It's looks like were here and looks like he's been here awhile. I'll be waiting right here if you need me, all right," said Dean as he caressed Buffy's cheek.
"What's he doing here?"
"He's here to... he's here to make me feel comfortable and safe."
"And you don't feel safe with me or comfortable?"
"Not for a long time, Angel. Asking the same question I asked last night. What the hell are you doing here?"
"I've shansued, Buffy."
"So..."
"I'm human."
"What's your point?"
"Now we can be together, Buffy this is what we've been waiting for."
"No Angel this is what you've been waiting for. I've moved on."
"But Buffy...," said Angel in a whiny voice.
"No Angel, I've moved on and so should you."
"Buffy we're soulmates, you know that."
"No, you may think were soulmates but I don't. What we had wasn't an everlasting love, it was just teenage puppy love and.."
"And what, you think what you have with Dean is everlasting love?"
"I don't know, we just met. But at least I trust him and.."
"You trust him? Buffy you just met him and you trust him? What about me?"
"Yes I trust him and no, I don't trust you. I haven't for a long time."
"But Buffffyyyyy," said Angel in a whiny voice.
"No Angel. This was a bad idea, I never should have came," said Buffy getting up to leave.
"Buffy, wait," said Angel grabbing her arm
"DEEEAAANNN, let go of me Angel," said Buffy pulling her arm from Angel's grasp.
"I'm coming, Buffy."
"Dean, get me out of here please."
"Do you really think, that you can have a normal life with this guy?"
"Yeah Angel, I do."
"That is so... Pathetic. How do you think you could possibly have a normal life with this guy? He seems about as normal as I did when we first met."
Angel never saw it coming as Dean's fist collided with Angel's jaw.
"Dean," said Buffy taking Dean's hand in her's to look for any damge.
Angel looked on in complete shock, he had really lost her. He lost he to this guy, well he wasn't going to stand for this. Buffy was his and his only.
"Stay away from... Can I call you my girlfriend?"
"Yeah, I guess you can."
"Stay the fuck away from my girlfriend, or I swear to god I will kick your ass!"
"Your girlfriend, you'll never be able to keep her happy or satisfied for that matter. Buffy needs a bit of monster in her man and Deany boy you're not it."
Angel never had a chance to say anything else, because the last thing he saw was Dean and Buffy's fist fly toward his face.
"Leave Cleveland Angel and don't come back or I'll kill you."
"This isn't over Buffy, not by a long shot," Angel said walking away
"Can I kiss you?"
"Before you do, there are somethings you have to know first."

Chapter 7
PREVIOUSLY: "Before you do, there are somethings you have to know first."
BACK to the the Chapter:
"Ok, should I be scared."
"No, at least I hope not. Um, I'm not just the slayer."
"What do you mean?"
"I'm not just the slayer, I'm... I'm, god this is so hard."
"Just breathe, okay, just breathe. Okay tell me."
"I'm half witch, but a good witch," said Buffy when she saw a look of panic flash across Dean's face.
"Okayyy, so you're half witch and half slayer or human or what."
"No, half whitelighter. The witch part of me is Charmed."
"Whitelighter? Charmed?"
"Whitelighters are guardian angels for witches and future whitelighters. And I'm a Charmed one, uh, the Charmed Ones are 3, well in my case 4, they're sister witches stemming down from the Warren line and my twin sister and I..."
"Woah, wait twin sister. There are two of you."
"No, Paige and I are fraternal twins, we were born the same time like 2 minutes apart. I'm the youngest of 5. Prue who died a couple of years ago..."
"Baby, I'm so sorry."
"Thanks, um Piper, Phoebe, Paige and myself."
"Okay, I'm seeing a "P" pattern here. How come your name doesn't begin with a P?"
"My middle name is Patricia-Anne. Another thing is I'm more of the slayer than a Charmed one. I'm mean I have all my powers, but I don't fight with my sisters, demons I mean."
"Okay, so your name is Buffy Patricia-Anne Summers?"
"Yep, well Summers-Halliwell."
"When I found out I was adopted and the story behind it, I kept the Summers and just hyphend in the Halliwell."
"Anything else I should know."
"My powers. Um, the one I can show you better than I can tell you."
"Show me?"
"Orbing, um, follow me."
"Where are we going?"
"Someplace where there are no eyes. I can't risk exposure, the last time that happened, I lost my sister and I can't go through that again. I almost lost it when Prue died."
"Baby I'm sorry. Okay, show me what you can do."
"Put your hands around my waste and hold on, don't let go."
As they orbed off, neither noticed a shadow watching their every move.
SECONDS LATER
"Woah, that was..."
"Yeah, that's what I said the first time I orbed. Just breathe."
"Holy shit, are we in Paris?"
"That we are."
"Is that?"
"Yes, that would be the Eiffel Tower."
"My god, this is incredible. Okay what else can you do?"
"I can blow things up, freeze things not actually freeze things like ice, I can move things with my mind but in my case it's orbed telekenisis, um.. watch. Candle," said Buffy as the candle orbed into her hand.
"Okay, anything else?'
"Um, I get premonitions, I can levitate and I can also throw fire balls."
"Fire balls?"
"Um...," Buffy flicked her hand and a ball of fire came out of her hand."
"Holy shit," said Dean
"I'm sorry, to much at once."
"No not that. That was just... wow. I don't think I've ever seen anything like that."
"My bosses, the Elders felt that since I was the slayer, I need a quicker way besides a stake to dust vamps. Shit, look at the time, we better go."
"Before we leave, um," said Dean pulling Buffy into a kiss. Buffy didn't resist either, she just melted the instant his lips touched hers and she felt herself kissing him back. She felt his tongue caress her lower lip and opened her mouth, allowing his tongue to enter her mouth. After a few moments of kissing, they stopped to catch their breath.
"Wow," said Buffy
"I agree, can we do that again."
"Later, right now we have to get back to the house, your dad and Sam are probably worried."
"Okay, don't drop me."
"Very funny, holldd onn," she said as the orbed back to Cleveland.
BUFFY's LIVING ROOM
"HOLY SHIT," yelled Sam as Buffy and Dean orbed into the living room
"WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT," yelled John
"That was orbing Dad," said Dean
"ORBING? AND HOW THE FUCK DID SHE DO THAT?"
"STOP YELLING DAD AND I'LL EXPLAIN. WELL WE'LL EXPLAIN."
"Okay, start talking, How did she do that?"
"It's in her blood."
"In her blood?"
"Yeah, she's a...," Dean said flashing a "can I tell them look"
"Go ahead."
"She's a witch."
"A WITCH," said John who was about to pull his gun
"Before you do anything drastic Dad, she's a Charmed one," said Dean stepping in front of Buffy "She's a good witch."
"Really, I've heard about the Charmed ones. There not so good," said John turning to Dean "Go ahead Buffy, tell him."
"Tell me what?"
"About her sisters and herself being not so good."
"That was that one time and that wasn't our fault."
"Babe, what's he talking about?"
"BABE," asked John
"A couple of months before Prue died, she was kidnapped by a warlock and she ended up married by a high priestess and married the warlock, and in turn the evil priestess was able to turn the book evil, which made us evil and we were bad, I mean really bad. Piper turned the wedding planners into a pig in a blanket and an ice sculpture, and it was just really bad. But it was only for a day, and Leo erased everyone's memory, so that they couldn't expose us. Did I mention it wasn't our fault."
"Okay, I understand, don't worry alright."
"What about past lives, huh Buffy?"
"That wasn't Phoebe's fault either."
"Huh?"
"Phoebe was evil in her past life, but that was only because she fell in love with a warlock named Antoine and.."
"What about you Buffy?"
"What are you talking about Dad?"
"I was also evil in my past life, I fell in love with Antoine's cousin Caleb who was also a warlock and the four of us were really bad, until Phoebe got vanquised. Antoine went into hiding along with Caleb and my past life but someone vanquished Caleb and myself over 30 years ago, so."
"Okay I understand that also. Babe we have so much to talk about."
"Babe," asked John
"Can we talk me later, I'm just so tired and in need of a much needed nap."
"DEAN, explain," asked John
"I asked Buffy to be my girlfriend and she said yes. Now I will explain later, but right now I am taking Buffy upstairs and we are going to take a nap, we are both really tired."
UPSTAIRS in Buffy's Room
"I'm sorry about my dad."
"No, it's okay. He's just worried about you. Can I ask you a guestion?"
"Sure."
"How did your mom die?"
"Uh,..."
"You don't have to tell me if you don't want to."
"No, I'll tell you. It's just that, the way she died was horrible. I didn't see it but Dad told me what happened. Sam was 6 months old when it happened. The demon was after Sammy, why we don't know, but mom stopped the demon from whatever it was doing and he ended up killing her. Dad told me that she was pinned to the ceiling and there was a slash of blood across her stomach and before he do anything to help, flames shot out from behind her and surrounded her. We've been looking for this demon and fighting anything that might lead us to him."
"Oh, baby, I'm so sorry."
"It's okay. What about you why were you given up for adoption."
"Because it was forbidden for whitelighters to be with their charges. I don't know why exactly but when my mom met Sam, yes his name was Sam, she... I quess she fell in love and when my parents got together, Paige and I were the result of that affair. So, mom and dad seperated us and Paige had more of a troubled life than I did, well until I became the slayer anyway. Paige's adopted parents ended up dying in a car accident and mine seperated. Paige became a Charmed one and I stuck to my slayer duties. I even died.. twice, but somehow I always managed to get brought back."
"You..You died."
"Yeah. Baby it was no big deal, well the second time was, but the first time I drowned and Xander brought me back. I was dead for like a minute."
"But you were still dead," said Dean giving Buffy a quick kiss "and I guess that scares me a bit. How'd you die the second time?"
"The was this hell god, Glory, she was looking for this key, which is Dawn, my baby sister..."
"Wait, you have another sister?"
"Yeah, but she wasn't real until my 21st (I'm guessing here.). There were these monks and they transformed the Key into a sister that I would protect with my life, and I did. Dawn ended up kidnapped by Glory and we were too late to stop Glory from opening the portal, so the only way to close it, was to give it blood, my blood. I couldn't let her die, so I told her that I loved her and I jumped into the portal, it closed, I died and I..."
"You what?"
"I went to heaven."
"Holy shit."
"Yeah, I know but Willow, another one of my best friends, Xanders the other one, anyway, Willow thought that when I died that I was trapped in some kind of hell dimension, so her, Xander, Tara and Anya, did a spell and brought me back. She didn't know that I was in heaven or that I was happy or that I would wake up in my coffin..."
"Wait, you woke up in your coffin?"
"Yes, and I had to dig my way out. I don't think I have ever been that scared."
"Oh, baby," said Dean pulling Buffy into his arms "I am so sorry baby."
"There was nothing you could do about it. I got through it, with some help from Spike..."
"Who's Spike?"
"Spike's a.. well was a neutered vampire that fought by my side and we ended up getting involved and it was just bad. No matter how many times I tried to end it, I still went back to him, because at the time he was the only thing that I could feel. I felt empty and hollow and he just seemed to make everything better. But it was unhealthy and I ended things. Can I go to sleep now?"
"Yeah, we have so much talking to do later."
"You mean even more than we've already talked?"
"Oh yeah."
"Fine," said Buffy laying down "Stay with me?"
"Yeah," said Dean laying down beside here and pulling her into his arms.
Before they knew it they were both feel into a deep sleep.
TBC with Dean and Buffy cuddling, more questions from John and Sam actually gets to put his two sense in and the Charmed ones and Leo of course will be making their apperances very soon. I hope I'm not confusing you all.
