Buffy felt Angel stir and got up, she opened her eyes to see him covering his bare chest with a white shirt, he then pass a hand through his hair and turn to find his love laying holding his pillow smiling sweetly to him.

"Not that I mind, but I prefer you shirtless". She said yawning a bit. "What time is it, anyway?"

"Morning love" She smiled and Angel frown. "I'm used to hear Spike calling me that. Or pet, slayer, cutie.. anything that comes out of his mouth… he has the weirdest ability of making it sound sexy and provocative at the same time" Angel pouted and Buffy thought how incredibly cute he looked, she wished she could kiss him senseless and love him all day and night long, but unfortunately the powers didn't thought so.

"I'll better get back. Dawn has school and so does.. oh.. I forgot Conn was staying."

"Mum?" Connor called opening the door. "Hey kid" Buffy said.

"Hey dad. Look Mum, sissy called and she's worried about you. Ya know Dawnie, she overreacts way too much" He said rolling his eyes.

"Ionúin, you should better call you daughter.." Buffy looked puzzled to him and Angel shook his head saying "I mean… your sister" and left the room in a hurry.

"What's the matter with him?" Asked Connor. "Dunno". Said Buffy.

It was time for our hero to look for answers and where if not under the Post Office? The Oracles had being playing long enough, right now, he needed answers.

He grab a gift, put his couch and left. Meanwhile Buffy grab her purse, give her goodbye's to her new and old friends and her loving "son", it was bit weird to think of him as a son, but none less it was how she felt. In Angel's room she took a pen and wrote a small note:

"Dear Mo grá,

Like I told you I had to take a look on Dawn, and things are, to say the least, way too calm for my liking.

Keep Conn save, okay? His been around too many 'women' these last couple months and he tends to babble when his nervous, oh, and boy does he broods, in case I didn't mention it before…

Love you both.

Kisses,

Buffy"

Angel mixed the herbs necessary to call for the powers and said: "I beseech access to the knowing ones".

"Why would you come to us again lower being?" Asked the blue man. "You're not the same" Angel stated "We have been substitute, of course." The woman said "None of it dear brother, warrior of the dark, what do you seek? Where is our gift?" Angel opened his hand revealing a small bracelet with diamonds that was his mothers.

"Very distinct" She looked at him again and said "Tell us, what you need?"

"My son and my sisters mate."

"Indeed. You shall remember what you gave up, although we shall not spare lives, mean it we gave the lives for you to care and love, the slayer warrior knows in her heart the truth, and you must give her what she needs to remember."

"I can't love her, properly as she deserves."

"Sister" Said the man "I thought the demon was already locked. How come he cannot love the female human?"

"What?" Angel asked and soon thrown out from the Oracles temple, again into the Post Office.

He rubbed his head and walk out again, he got home to find Connor reading a book on the sofa, Wesley over some scroll, Cordy painting her nails, Gunn cleaning up the weapons, Fred organizing the books on the shells and Lorne humming a song while drinking some scotch.

"Humpf.." He said. "Hey boss, Buffy left about half an hour ago." Cordy replied. "Okay…" he said watching Connor jump from his place and smile to him. "She'll call, you know her overprotective much right?" His gang watched the boy babble and himself smirk.

"Lorne I need to talk to you, privately.. if possible." He said still lost in thoughts "Sure thing Angelcakes. Let's go upstairs and you can pour your heart to me."

The two friends climb the stairs leaving a concern Connor behind. After minutes Connor couldn't remain engaged into his book, no matter how 'Chronicles of Narnia and the Prince Caspian' was getting interesting, his father and Lorne were getting to secretive for his liking. So he did what he knew he did best, according to Buffy, he sneaked and went to see what they were up to.

He then listened to his father voice singing, gosh, was he terrible or what? Praise the lord!

"Oh Mandy

Well you came and you gave without taking

But I sent you away

Oh Mandy

Well you kissed me and stopped me from shaking

And I need you today

Oh Mandy" Mandy – Barry Manilow

"Angel, dear god, that's enough. Your singing hasn't improved at all. But this, I certainly wasn't expecting this. The slayer is in fact Connor and Dawn biological mother, as you are their father and heaven only knows how that happened. But they are in fact, siblings." Lorne said.

"The dream was real, then?" His father asked. "So, how about my soul?"

"A hundred percent secure, I can't understand why I didn't see it before." Lorne said.

"Perhaps you weren't supposed to know, yet." Angel said.

Suddenly Connor cell phone rang.

"I dance around this empty house
Tear us down, throw you out
Screaming down the halls
Spinning all around and now we fall" Funhouse - Pink

"Y' llo" Connor greeted on the line.

"Hey little brother it's me! Did Buffy already got her ass out of there?" Asked Dawn, he simply rolled his eyes and replied "Yep, left a note for Da, can you believe it?" He said in a mocking tone. Dawn laughed and heard Connor asked in a caring way. "Nie, you think we could be siblings? You know, you and me?"

"Connie, did you hit your head somewhere sweetie? Because you keep calling Angie you dad, I know he would be an awesome one but, he is kind of infertile…"

"That's because he really is my father, some stuff about him going dark and sleeping with Darla.." Connor trailed.

"Darla is your mom? I told everything I could possibly think about my sis and Angel, and you didn't ever bother to tell me he is your fuckin' father?" Dawn stormed, he could almost see her holding the tears and pretending she was fine.

"Truth be told, I didn't want you think I was some sort of monster, if so you wouldn't be my friend and treat me the way you do.."

"Conn, how could you think something like that? Of course I love you, you my baby brother, blood or no blood.. hope that made any sense.."

"I miss you already…" Connor admitted, sitting on the floor, he didn't notice Angel watching him holding his cell phone and playing with a hole on his jeans while chatting with Dawn, his sister.

Far away they both heard:

"Dawn I'm home! You better not be on that phone with Janice, 'cause if you are, heck, you'll figure it out how to pay the bill this month!"

"It's Connie, Buffy" She laughed.

"Say 'hi' to him!" Dawn shook her head and asked "Did you heard?"

"Tell her I said 'hi' back."

"Connor?" Called Angel.

"Hey, sorry dad, didn't saw you there, me and Nie.. is an habit, I promise I'll try to make it quick.."

"Nonsense Connor, she's your sister after all" He said in a lower voice, so low Connor almost thought he hadn't heard.

"Conn?" Called Dawn. "Hey.. hum.. can you put Mom in the phone? Gotta ask her something.."

"Hum, sure. Buffy?" Dawn called.

"What's up 'Hun?" Buffy asked concerned.

"Hey Má, just.. Well I miss you already" He said, suddenly chickening from the idea of asking Buffy about any child dreams. "We miss you too, now have some fun while you there, okay?"

"Okay.. I love you." He whispered. "We love you too kiddo. See ya" Buffy said hanging up the phone, a solitude tear falling, without notice Dawn wrap her arms around her petite frame understanding how much that small trip to LA had took from her.

Connor closed the cell phone feeling his father's eyes on him. After some seconds Angel sat on his side and sighed. Connor laid his head on his father's shoulders closing his eyes.

"I've learn something from the Powers That Be, some hours ago.."

"What made you all worked up about it?"

"The truth" Angel answered cryptically.

"Could you be more crypt? 'Cause I swear I didn't got it…"

"I had a dream, about you, Dawn, and your mother." He started.

"Our mother? Like me and Dawn as siblings? As like.."

"As like, you're siblings, my and Buffy's children, to be precise."

"WOW!" Connor said getting up startled with the news.

"That's not all.. they also did my soul permanent."

"Holy shit! Dad that's just… Wow" Connor said using expression he remember seeing Dawn, well his baby girl doing.

"Yep, I'm still in a awe myself." He voiced.

"No kidding, I mean.. you and Buffy, Buffy and you.." Connor started saying.

"What do you mean with that kiddo?" Angel asked.

"Well I mean.. what the heck are we still doing here sitting and discussing about Mum and little sis? Let's go home dad. Pack your stuff I'm gonna talk with the gang and get the cars ready". He got up and went walking, but before ready getting down he said "You got the ring right?"

"What ring?" Angel asked bemused he even knew about a ring.

"Má has one; it's in a silver crucifix necklace always with her. I'm surprised you haven't notice that." He said finally leaving his father to his usual broodiness.

"Guys" He heard his son call. "You know, hum.. I have no clue how to ask this.."

"You can simply say it Connor" Gently spoke Fred.

"Yeah boy, there nothing for you to fear" Wesley reasoned.

"It's hum..well.." he stumbled with words.

"Sugar boy, relax, I'll give you a hand." Lorne said smiling.

"Thanks Lorne." Connor breath in relieve.

"See, sweetie bean here is also the slayers son and has a sister, which is also the slayers daughter, mostly known as Dawn."

"What are we waiting for?" Exclaimed Cordy "Angel!" She yelled "Get that pretty white ass of yours down here NOW!" The rest of the gang smiled at her. Angel showed up in the stairs holding two bags in a hand while looking for some sort of weapon on himself a scared look on his face.

"Dad? What are you doing?" Asked Connor.

"I was looking for.. whatever.. what's wrong Cordy?" He simply said.

"Nothing.. we are going to Sunnydale! I have to pack some stuff, what you guys waiting for?" Suddenly there was a commotion and everyone was packing.

"You are very effective, son." Angel said bemused.

"I didn't do anything..." He replied.

And Angel laughed, pulling the boy into a hug.

"Let's get our asses home right?"
