Chapter 2: Waking World

The fangs never came. Xander woke with a vicious jolt from the alarm clock's ring, bolting upright in Angelus's blood red sheets. Angelus, still half asleep, lazily attempted to pull Xander back down. Xander pushed his arm back down.

Angelus woke up and looked at Xander, who was shaking from the dream. Angelus smiled slightly and sat up, looking at his prize. "What's eating you that isn't me?" Angelus inquired thoughtfully. "I dreamed about last night, about what would have happened if I would have said yes." Angelus kissed Xander on the shoulder, making the teen shrink back into his arms.

"Well, i'm glad that didn't happen." Angelus mumbled into Xander's shoulder. Xander tried to pull away, but Angelus held a firm grip. "Sw-sweetie," Xander struggled, "I got to get to school." Angelus groaned and lay back down.

"Have you seen my clothes anywhere?" Xander inquired. Angelus rolled his eyes, "Well, the thing is they were kind of in my way last night to get to your--" "Okay I get it you ripped them off of me." Xander exhasperatedly said. Angelus sighed, "Borrow some of mine. Just don't use any of my good clothes and don't take my jacket. Buffy'll definitely know what's going on if you take my jacket."

Xander walked to the closet, opening the door and walking inside. "Wow," He thought, "This is bigger than my room!" Xander took a white shirt and a pair of jeans off of a couple of hangers. Xander looked at the jeans, all torn and faded, and mumbled, "These must be Spike's." Xander pulled the clothes on and walked out of the closet, turning the light off as he did so.

Angelus whistled in approval. Xander rushed to the bedside, giving his naked undead lover a kiss. Xander ended the kiss, pulling away slightly. "I got to get going," Xander purred.

"Ya know the only reason i'm letting you get away with this is because you always come back," Angelus said to Xander's retreating form.

Xander turned around while adjusting his shirt. "I know," Xander said, walking out of the room and into the sunlight, ready to meet the day.
