Thanks for the reviews! I hope you enjoy this chapter, it's a little longer.

Chapter 20: …I Say We Party…

Everyone had to give their statements to the FBI, luckily Angel didn't get arrested for murder. They had explained that he wouldn't have had to do anything if they were doing their jobs right, the FBI agent told Buffy that none of it would have happened if she hadn't gotten into something she shouldn't have been in. Buffy explained that she was just doing her job that she was hired to do. They had come to an agreement that there were wrongs on both sides but luckily nothing happened to the one person they were trying to protect. Before they walked out Buffy added "And he pretty much saved everyone!"

Buffy and Angel were now laying in his bed, Buffy had her arms wrapped around his waist. It seemed like she hadn't let go of him since he got to the house and rescued her. He was okay with that. He had missed her.

"I'm sorry." she whispered into his chest.

"For what? For almost getting yourself killed?" He looked down at her.

Buffy held him even tighter. "No. For being a bitch. I was just scared."

"Of?" he asked.

"You. I… you scared me when you got mad. I don't want to be the reason why you are mad.. I don't want to be the one your mad at. I miss my Angel." She whispered.

"And I miss my baby." He whispered back. "Buffy, I'm sorry I over reacted. I just get so insane at the thought of losing you. I thought I was losing you, and then it hit me. I lost you because of it. You haven't been acting like yourself since our fight and its killing me to know that its my fault. I want you to smile, laugh, joke… hell I want you to complain again. I just want you to talk to me. So… I'm the one who is sorry, baby."

"Speaking of…" Buffy said sitting up. "I was scared to tell you before but… I kind of need to take a pregnancy test at some point. Maybe next week."

"You haven't gotten your period?" He asked her.

"No. But that could also be because of stress." Buffy looked down and added. "I just want to be sure since we had sex twice without.."

"Yeah, I know. We can pick up a test.." He started to say.

"I already did. I just have to wait until its been long enough for it to be able to come up accurate… you know." She asked him.

"Yeah… I think so." He said making a face.

'He took that well.' She thought as she laid back down with her head on his chest. "Angelus, have you talked to her?"

He was a little hurt that she was still calling him Angelus but he tried not to react to it. "Who?"

"The girl from the cell phone place.." She trailed off.

Angel made a 'what the fuck face' but she didn't see him. "Janet? I called her once…" Buffy bit her lip. "I didn't know how to get to the text messages. I know, I'm technology impaired. I got a text message from one of the other Sergeants , I hit the wrong thing and it went away. I knew if I asked one of the other guys I would never live it down. So I called her. She explained it to me and I never talked to her again"

"You could have asked me." She whispered playing with a button on his shirt.

Angel looked down at her even thought he couldn't see her face. "Would you have talked to me?"

"You could have at least tried." Angel nodded. He didn't think she would have talked to him at that point but he could have tried. She was right about that.

Angel rubbed her back softly. "It was going to be a surprise but we were going to have a party for you tonight. Now I don't think it would be such a great idea. Its been a long day already."

Buffy was confused. "A party for what?"

"A late house warming party. We realized you didn't get a proper welcoming to the house. Hell, we threw a huge party when we moved it. So we wanted to do something for you. Plus, I think Gunn wants to give you a little piece offering.. You being upset with him has effected him more then I would like." He told her.

Buffy smiled. "How do you even know I would be home tonight? I could have been working"

"I may have talked to Willow who passed the message on to Veronica and she said she would make sure you weren't working tonight so we could surprise you with the party." Angel explained to her.

"Sure, you saved my life. I say we party." She replied looking up at him with a smile. "You like me."

Angel looked down at her, thinking about what she was referring to. He put his hand on her face and rubbed her cheek with the pad of his thumb. "Of course I like you." he didn't want to tell her that he more then liked her, but maybe he should…

Angelus went to tell the other guys that he had talked to Buffy and she gave the go for the party. They were all excited. Gunn because maybe this would get him back on Buffy's good side, Doyle just wanted to see Buffy have some fun and Spike.. Well Spike wanted to get drunk and laid.

Buffy had told Angel she was going to go take a shower and get ready, after about an hour she walked down stairs and saw the guys setting up tables, moving furniture out of the way and setting food out. She saw Angel putting beer in a tub of ice, 'he must have gone out while I was in the shower.' Buffy watched as Spike and Gunn moved the coffee table. "Who exactly is coming to this shin dig?"

All the guys looked up at Buffy, they hadn't even noticed she was standing there… Angel hadn't seen her but he knew she was there. He always knows when she is around.

"Your friends. The ones that we know of course and then they passed the word around to your other friends." Angel said putting a few more beers in the ice.

"So what?.. A total of 10 people?" Buffy joked.

Spike pushed a chair against the wall. "And we invited a few of our friends. Just to make it more fun."

"Oh and here I thought you were moving everything out of the way for the mud wrestling but now it makes more sense." Buffy nodded.

Spikes face light up with excitement. "No." Angel said sternly.

Spike pointed at Buffy. "Its her party and her idea!"

"Your not getting mud in my house!" Angel's OCD kicked in causing him to get a little heated. He remembered what Buffy had said about not liking it when he was angry so he took a few breathes to try to calm down. He glanced at Buffy who to his relief was actually smiling. "Spike, you aren't the one who cleans. I don't want to be cleaning mud off of everything in the house for the rest of my life." He said calmly.

The guys finished setting up everything and Gunn was about to turn on the music when there was a knock at the door. Doyle went to answer the door and it was Buffy's best friends and their significant others. Early. Willow, her boyfriend Oz, Xander, his girlfriend Anya, Veronica and her boyfriend Logan all walked in.

"Hey guys!" Buffy said hugging them all. "Where is Tara?"

Buffy held on to Oz's hand. "She is coming. She was going to go pick someone up."

"Someone?" Buffy asked. "A date someone?"

"Most likely. I mean since you have a boyfriend now, she is the only single loser one in the group." Anya said like there was nothing wrong with the words that were coming out of her mouth.

With a sarcastic smile Buffy said "On the behalf of myself and Tara- Thanks Anya."

"Your welcome." She said looking around. This was the first time Anya, Oz and Logan had been there. Veronica had only seen a small area threw the door way when she was talking to Angel earlier that day.

"Want the tour?" Buffy asked.

"Heck yeah! Where is your room?" Logan joked. Angel sized Logan up. 'That must be Logan. The guy that Buffy dated. Nothing special.' He thought.

25 minutes later while Buffy was giving everyone the tour, even thought some of them already knew where everything was since they had helped her move in, they still tagged alone… the door bell rang again. This time Gunn answered the door. It was the girl he remembered as Tara and she was with a brunette that was about the same height as Buffy.

"Hi." Tara said shyly.

"Buffy is upstairs showing everyone around." Angel told her.

"Check out the man power in here. Wouldn't mind riding these stallions." The brunette commented.

Spike smiled at the new comer. 'I think I like her.'

"Oh, this is Faith." Tara said.

Spike stepped in front of Gunn, to get a better view. "Faith? As in kissed Buffy- Faith?"

Faith looked the blonde male up and down. "That was a long time ago, but yeah. Me and B- we lip locked."

"YES!" Spike said happily., looking up at the heavens. 'Someone up there loves me!'

Buffy thought she heard Faiths voice so she went down the stairs, everyone else in toe. When she saw Faith she was happy but not so happy at the same time. She hadn't seen Faith in a while and even though they weren't on the best of terms the last time they saw each other they still referred to each other as friends.

"Faith!" Buffy said hugging her. "How have you been?"

Faith hugged her back. "You know me, B. Five by Five."

"Always." Buffy smiled pulling out of their hug. "What are you doing here?"

"Heard there was a party in your honor. Couldn't pass it up." She told Buffy.

Angelus looked at the rest of Buffy's friends. She got the feeling not everyone was happy to see this Faith person, mostly Anya who was glaring at her.

Faith walked around the living room and whistled. "Nice place." She walked pasted Angel, looking him up and down. "B?" She nodded to him.

"Yeah." She nodded back.

"Thought so. You got B written all over you." She said looking at Angel. He looked down at his clothes, like he would find Buffy's name written on him. "Nah, you just smell like her." she added with a smile. She then mouthed to Buffy "Nice."

The door bell rang again and Angel looked at his watch.

"More people?" Willow asked.

Angel opened the door. "Just the pizza." He was about to get his wallet out when Gunn stopped him.

"Its on me." Gunn said and Angel took the pizza's.

"That's a lot of pizza." Xander commented.

"Wont last long." Angel said to him as he walked into the kitchen to put the pizza down.

Before Gunn could close the door a bunch of guys walked up. "Hey man!" They said as they walked in. He was about to close the door but again a group of people walked in and he decided just to leave the door open and walked over to turn the music up. Doyle showed everyone where the food and drinks where and the party had finally started.

"Who are all these people?" Willow whispered to Buffy.

Buffy looked around. "Well, that is Jeremy Sherwood. I know that one. And from how Angelus has talking that guy over there is Sully." She said pointed. "Oh, and Leadingham. Grant, Michaels, Davis…" Buffy listed some of the guys off while she was pointing to them. "I only know most of their last names… they go by last names."

"How do you know them?" Faith asked taking a swig of her beer.

"They work with the guys. Friends of Angelus'.. some of them are under his command actually." Buffy told her.

"Command?" Faith asked.

"Angelus is a Sergeant in the Army." She replied.

Faith's expression looked impressed. "The Army huh? Didn't think you would go back there, B." She said as Angel walked up wrapping his arms around Buffy from behind. She knew it was him, not only didn't she know his touch but no one else would dare touch her like that when Angel was around.

"What are you talking about, Baby?" He kissed her on the neck.

"About how Faith never thought Buffy would date another Army guy since Riley cheated on Buffy and all." Anya answered truthfully.

Angel was about to say something when Anya continued. "You know he cheated on her a few times? The first time was actually with Faith."

Angel looked from Buffy to Faith and was once again about to say something but… "Buffy was pissed for a while but Riley came up with all these excuses as to why she shouldnt be mad at him but mad at Faith. So they stopped talking for a while but then started talking behind Riley's back last year. But Faith has a troubled past and things didn't work out because she stabbed Buffy in the back again even though Buffy was really the only person who tried to be her friend. They haven't talked since." Anya said being in extreme share mode.

Buffy and Faith looked at each other, both had shocked looks on their face. "Thanks Anya, you want to tell him when, where and how I last screwed too?" Faith said. Buffy let out a small laugh.

"We're good now, right B?" She asked.

"Yup. We're cool." Buffy reassured her.

Angel kissed Buffy's shoulder. "You hungry? There's still pizza."

"A little." She said turning her head to look at him.

Buffy and Angel walked into the kitchen to get some pizza where a bunch of other people were drinking, talking and playing a few games.

"Why do I get the feeling Anya doesn't like Faith much?" he asked Buffy handing her a plate.

Buffy took the plate from Angel. "Because she doesn't. Back in high school before Anya even moved here, Xander and Faith had this thing… well I wouldn't really call it a thing. More like they slept together. It was this HUGE ordeal because I think Willow was still crushing on Xander a little bit, he had JUST broken up with his girlfriend,- not by choice though. So being dumped would be a better way to describe it and it was Xander's first time." Buffy explained picking up a slice of pizza. "…with a woman." She smiled.

"So Anya doesn't like Faith because, what?.. Almost 5 years ago before he even knew she existed Xander had sex with Faith?" Angel repeated back.

"Yup, that about sums it up. But sometimes she doesn't like me because Xander had a thing for me at one point and she knows that Willow had a thing for Xander…"Buffy looked up at Angel. "Yeah, we had a little love triangle going on back in high school. But as soon as Willow met Oz, she only had eyes for him and the triangle became a one way line because believe me, I have NEVER wanted Xander." She explained. "Things were a little complicated back then… to many hormones racing and close friends spending all their time together. It got messy."

"So am I wrong then that Oz isn't completely comfortable with Xander?" Angel asked her.

"You can sense that? Wow. Your good." She said taking a bite. "Back in our senior year of high school something happened… weirdness because all the sudden Xander wanted Willow and Willow for some strange reason wanted Xander… again. They both were with other people but.. Well lets just said those other people walked into a room to find Willow and Xander kissing on a bed…FULLY clothes thank god! Both couples broke up but Willow and Oz are meant to be." She told Angel, looking into the living room at Willow and Oz. Oz had his arm around Willow and kissed her on the temple. "They missed each other so much they got back together and they did have one more rough patch in college but they got over it. Willow forgave Oz because he had forgiven her for the Xander incident, which the Xander incident is what lead him to being single around the time he had sex with Faith."

Angel nodded taking it all in. Their lives were crazy. "And Veronica and Logan?"

"Oh them! Wow! They break up ALL the time and always get back together. We all hated Logan back in high school, he was rude, arrogant and just an all around ass hole. Back then Veronica was dating a guy named Duncan who is Logan's best friend and Logan was dating Lily who was Veronica's best friend and Duncan's sister. But one day out of the blue Duncan breaks up with Veronica. She was heart broken and she tried to get Lily to find out why he broke up with her, well later we found out that Veronica's mom had cheated on her dad with Duncan's dad and there was a possibility that Duncan and Veronica were brother and sister. It would totally make since to why Veronica and Lily were so close, without even knowing they could be sisters. But anyway, me and Veronica put it upon ourselves to get a DNA test done, we stole some of Keith's hair from his brush and sent it in with some of her's for the test, he is in fact her dad. Then Logan and Lily broke up because she is a year older then us and she wanted to go off to college and you know… have the college experience with other guys and maybe girls. About a month after Lily left Logan asked me for my help, I took on a case for him and we started spending more and more time together. I started to think he wasn't to bad. We started dating but on the down low." She told him taking another bite.

The she continued. "We didn't want anyone to know because we were just to different and lets face it, he was really popular and people just used me to find stuff out about their boyfriends or girlfriends or parents. But it did finally get out. We ended up breaking up a week later, but his dad told me he liked who Logan was when he was with me. That he seemed happier, like he wanted to actually be someone. I wasn't enough to completely change his ways though. After we broke up, he started spending more time with Veronica… but it was a taunting kind of relationship. They teased each other like always and I guess maybe it turned into love. But Logan wasn't into that kind of stuff back then. They broke up all the time whenever she didn't like something he did- since he was SUCH a bad boy." She joked "He would break up with her to use other girls too… like he dating this girl to get back at her dad for something he did when Logan was in little league! They were together off and on for two years and then around graduation they got together and stayed together… mostly. They broke up once in college but got back together and they have been together ever since."

Angel took all of that in. That was a lot to take in for one couple. "… so you and Logan only dated once?"

Buffy took a deep breath. "No. Whenever Veronica and Logan were "off" Logan and I were always on. It seemed like even if I had a boyfriend at the time something would happen and we would break up and then I was just with Logan… it would just happen. It was weird. But once we started college we weren't together anymore. I was kind of over it and I saw how much in love they were so why get in the middle of that?" She explained. "Plus I got with Riley. And even before I got with Riley when Veronica and Logan broke up that one time in college he went out with this girl named Parker. I wasn't to fond of her so when I heard he was with her, I told him to not even think about coming to me."

Angel was dumbfounded. "Wow. Logan seems like a …. great guy."

Buffy smiled. "He is now. He's a reformed bad boy. And now that you have had everyone's love life history lesson…"

"Not everyone." He told her. "What about you?"

"You already know everything that happened with Riley." She told him.

"I know you dated more then just Riley." He teased.

Buffy looked at him. "Maybe but not much." She said hoping he would drop it. He gave her a knowing look. "Fast track- first boyfriend Jeff. Total loser. He broke up with my via answering machine the night of a huge homecoming dance whining that I wasn't around enough. I didn't satisfy his needs. He ended up with a girl I thought was a good friend of mine. The same night I ended up spending the dance with Pike, boyfriend number two. I didn't like him when we first met. I even made fun of his name, he made fun of mine. Great time had by all, didn't help that he didn't really like me because we met at the movies and him and his best friend, Benny were yelling at me and mine for being to loud. But anyway, we got together and it didn't last long. It was around the time my dad left, like actually moved out. I… well me and Pike took off for Vegas and he ended up leaving me there for some insane reason. I had to call my dad and ask him for money to get back home. Not a Happy Hank. That was the end of that. Then there was Owen that didn't even last as long as Pike, then Logan, singles-vile for a while, and Logan again. I didn't really date much for a year ..unless it was Logan" she said with a small laugh. "and then I went out with Scott but he cheated on me and dumped me right before prom and then Parker… I wouldn't really call him a boyfriend though- he was my one night stand." She told him looking at her shoes. She was quiet for a few seconds. "And then Riley for 3 years and now you." She gave him a small smile. "Now you know my history too. So what about you?" She asked.

"That's easy." He said " Shelley Michaels and you."

Buffy looked at him with her mouth hanging open. "Two? Only two? You only dated two? There is NO way you only slept with two girls… wait, don't answer that. I know of one more that you have been with so you were a I-don't-have-to-be-dating-to-do-the-dirty kind of guy."

"Dated, yeah two. Slept with… lets just say I don't have enough finger to count them on two hands." He joked.

Buffy pouted her lips. "I so didn't want to know that…. I can count how many guys I have slept with on one hand!"

Buffy threw away her plate that had the pizza on it and walked over to get a drink. "Are you upset?" He asked hoping she wasn't.

Buffy licked her lips and glanced away for a second, then back at him. "No. I already knew you had been with a lot of girls. Hell, look at you. I would be surprised if you hadn't."

"Sorry." He apologized softly.

"You know what? I think we have done enough talking… or I have anyway." She said putting her hand on his chest and lighting pushing him backwards so he walked lowly towards the comfy soft chair someone must have moved from the living room. He fell backwards into the chair. Buffy smiled at him and straddled his hips. She put her index finger on his lips. "I really missed you." She whispered and then kissed him. He kissed her back eagerly trying to tell her how much he had missed her too without bringing to much attention to themselves in the middle of a party.

Their kisses became more heated, they broke apart for air but only for a second before kissing each other again and again. Between kisses Angel asked "Do you want to go away next weekend?"

Buffy kissed him again. "Go where?" She asked as they broke away.

"LA." He said before he kissed her again.

"What's next weekend?" She kissed him.

"Just next weekend." He said as she started to kiss his neck. "Nothing special about it." He opened his mouth and closed his eyes, loving the feel of her.

"What do you want to do?" She asked between the kisses she placed on his neck.

"A friend of mine owns a bar there. Some of the guys from base go there once in a while. Thought maybe you would like to go… your friends too." He told her as she sucked on his neck.

She placed a kiss on his neck where she had been sucking. "I can ask them, but if I can be alone with you then I will go."

Angel smiled. "We can get a hotel room."

"I'm in." She replied, getting up and taking him by they hand. Pulling him out of the chair and threw the living room.

They made it to the top of the stairs before she attacked him again. Kissing and sucking everywhere she could. They attempted to make their way to Angel's room without breaking apart. They pumped into people and hit the wall a few times. They finally made it to his door. He opened the door, guiding them threw it and slamming the door, pining her against the wall. Kissing her neck and collar bone. He heard a moan, but it didn't belong to Buffy and he sure as hell didn't do it. "Get out!" he said still kissing her neck. Buffy opened her eyes and saw movement towards the bed. She saw a couple getting off Angel's bed and walking towards the door. As soon as the door was opened Angel pulled up Buffy's tight skirt, rubbing her ass. Buffy moaned and went to work on taking off his shirt. She really hated the damn buttons. Angel grinded his hips into hers, letting her feel his hard manhood. She moaned, rolling her eyes back. She was getting frustrated with his shirt, she grabbed the opening at the top on both sides and ripped his shirt open, buttons flying everywhere. For a brief second she wondered if he would be upset but her mind was eased when she heard him let out a small laugh.

"Impatient, are we?" He smiled down at her.

Buffy nodded. "Feels like forever."

Angel lifted Buffy up off the ground and she wrapped her legs around his waist. He kissed her on the mouth and walked them over to his bed. He laid her down on his bed gently. "You don't think anyone else had sex on this bed… do you?" She asked breaking away from their kiss. He shook his head no but really, he had no idea! And at this point, he didn't really care. He pushed up Buffy's tank top and pulled down her panties at what seemed like the same time.

Buffy reached for Angel's pants button but as soon as he latched his mouth on her nipple she couldn't think. She was far to sensitive at the moment and he was just SOOOO good. She heard the sound of a zipper and clothes being pushed on. She felt his bare cock rub her thigh. "Don't forget the…" She whispered and then heard the drawer to his night stand opening. She opened her eyes to see him putting the condom on himself and without a seconds delay he was inside of her. 'God, I have missed this. Him.' She thought and she heard Angel curse under his breath. She was having a hard time holding on as she felt him pumping in and out of her. He wasn't doing much better. He thought she felt even tighter around him then the last time they had been together. He was afraid he was going to cum before she did. Buffy was so sensitive to his touch that it didn't happen though. He speed his pace up and bit down on her nipple, she came screaming his name, the second her felt her inner walls clutching around his cock he came too, shooting his hot cum inside of her.

"Well that lasted as long as a teenagers first time." Angel commented sarcastically.

Buffy looked at him smiling. "Yeah well, that's how I felt the first time we had sex too. It ended much to fast for my liking."

They kissed heatedly again. Angel could feel his cock twitch, he pulled out of Buffy and she whimpered. She watched him as he took the condom off, kissing her again he reached for another condom.

Buffy and Angel walked down the stairs 2 hours later. They had been in his bedroom the whole time hoping that no one heard them as they gave in to their desires.

When they got to the bottom of the stairs Buffy let out an annoyed sigh. Angel followed her line of sight and saw a tall blonde guy at a keg that hadn't been there early. He didn't know who this guy was but there was also a guy a little shorter then the blonde with dark hair standing next to him shaking his head.

Buffy glanced over at Angel and then back to the two guys by the keg. "That would be Dick Casablancas and Duncan Kane. Logan's best friends. Different as night and day but somehow they are friends." She told him. "The obnoxious blonde would be Dick and his name sums him up perfectly."

Veronica and Logan walked up to Buffy and Angel. "Hey you two. Where have you been?" Veronica asked.

Logan put his arm around Veronica. "Like you even have to ask, pumpkin." He said sarcastically.

"Har har." Buffy pretended to laugh. "What is Dic…"

"No idea!" Veronica said holding up her arms in surrender. "I don't even know how he found out about the party. He just always does! He even brought his own keg!"

"That's because Dick thinks we are still in high school when kegs were cool." Logan smiled.

Veronica shook her head and looked at Angel. "Well I wanted to make sure to tell you that it was nice to meet you. Not only did you save my best friends life, but you also clearly made her VERY happy." She said suggestively. "and now I know for a fact that Buffy didn't make you up."

"Veronica! I told you I didn't!" Buffy raised her voice.

"I know you did but ever since you made up that boyfriend when we were younger, you can never be to sure." She smiled.

"Yeah… Chris." Logan laughed. Veronica and Buffy both slapped him on the arm. Angel smiled at not only the fact that Buffy had clearly made up a boyfriend at some point but the trio's antics as well. Both girls had dated this boy and they were still such close friends. That also meant that Logan knew Buffy well, better then Angel knew her and that upset him a little. He would just have to make it so he knew Buffy better.

The rest of the night was full of fun. They had played beer pong and "I've Never" and once Angel had enough drinks in him he danced. Luckily Buffy was there to rub her ass against him other wise he would be looking like a spas dancing. He wasn't much of a dancer, in fact he never danced if he could help it when he was sober. But being almost completely drunk, he had been the one to pull Buffy out into the middle of the living room to dance. She immediately plastered her back to h is chest, put her arms up around his neck and began to grind into him. She slithered her body down almost to the floor taking him with her and then back up again. While they were dancing she felt his manhood poke her in the lower back and she let out a little giggle that did nothing for his not so little problem that was going on in the front of his pants. If she wasn't dancing so close to him anyone who was looking at him would see it.

Angel was trying to hid himself for the next half hour until people started leaving, most of the people were gone but a few were passed out. They decided to let the people passed out stay and anyone who felt they were to drunk to get home could stay as well. A few people took them up on their offer but most of them had called someone to get them. Angel would make sure they got their cars in the morning.

As soon as everyone was gone Angel grabbed Buffy by the wrist and pulled her upstairs with him and back into his room so he could get a little help with his raging hard on. Buffy was happy to help.
