I own none of the characters of Angel

Her lips eagerly responded to mine. Her tongue gently probed my mouth for entrance and I couldn't deny her. As soon as I opened my mouth she pushed her tongue inside and gently began exploring every crevice. Oh my God, this was better than I had remembered. We kissed before at the ballet but this time it was different, probably because this time its us kissing as ourselves not as some ancient lovers in an ill fated love affair. I couldn't let her have all of the fun so I pushed my tongue inside her mouth and groaned. I couldn't help myself, it just felt so…right. My tongue sought out and found the incredible softness that I always imagined I would find. I heard her moan into my mouth and that just made me increase the intensity of my kiss. I didn't even realized that she had unbuttoned my shirt until I felt her delicate fingers running up and down my bare chest and suddenly the realization of what was happening came crashing into my brain and I quickly pulled away from the beautiful woman in front of me.

"Angel?" She looked at me with swollen lips and eyes laden with desire. I shook my head, trying to clear my thoughts and I walked away from her.

"This…this…isn't right." I couldn't get over the fact that she shouldn't be standing here out of my mind. She is in a coma in a hospital. Not standing here in front of me wanting to make love. She sighed irritability.

"I've done all that I can do to convince you that this is a real opportunity for us to have a chance at what could have been. I can only explain to you as much as I understand. Take some time to think about everything that I have told you today. If and when you are ready to see me again, I'll know it and I'll be back. If that never happens just remember that I love you so very much." I reached up to wipe away the tears that were falling but before I could touch her cheek she disappeared.

This is just too damn weird. She's here. She's not here. She's a ghost. She's not a ghost. I was so fucking confused. Maybe I just wanted her to be here, wanted to make love to her so damn bad that I imagined that I could see her, smell her, and touch her. Even though she was gone her perfume still lingered in the hair, my lips still tingled from our kiss and I could still feel her hands on my chest. I strode angrily around my room rebuttoning my shirt. I am not usually confused person and right now I am very confused and I don't like it one bit. I want her to be here in my life, in my bed but my mind was telling me that it was impossible.

As I paced around my penthouse I tried to convince myself that this was real but it wasn't working. Cordy was right. For years I have encountered ghosts, people who have been raised from the dead, people who should have died hundreds of years ago that didn't. Buffy had died and been resurrected. Hell, I was killed again, sent to hell and then sent back from hell so it was very possible that if The Powers wanted to bring Cordy back then they could do it.

"That's it." I said out loud. I can't believe that it took me so long to think of this. I needed to talk to the condawhent, my link to The Powers.

--

"Lower being why are you here?"

"I think that Cordelia has come back to me."

"That is correct."

"Well gee thanks that was helpful." I muttered.

"Then what answers do you seek?"

"Is it real, is she real?"

"Yes she is real."

"A real what? Ghost, figment of my imagination?"

"Vampire, you are so frustrating. Why can't you see what has been given to you?"

"I can see. I just don't know what I am seeing." I snapped. Their cryptic answers were not doing any good for my patience level.

"Why is what she is such an issue for you?"

"I'm afraid I'm losing my mind."

"You are not losing your mind."

"Again, not helpful. According to Cordelia The Powers are giving us a second chance to be together but how can I be with a ghost?"

"The Powers That Be are very powerful."

"Tell me something I don't know."

"As you wish. The ghost that you are referring to is lying on the hospital bed. The woman that you are seeing is the human form of The Seer."

"Then why didn't she tell me that?" That woman could be so frustrating.

"She doesn't know. She was only given a very limited amount of information."

"She said that we could make love and not risk my curse but how can that be if she is human? Do The Powers know that she is not my perfect happiness?" I truly believed that she is and if I find out that she wasn't…I just didn't want, couldn't think about that.

"The Powers That Be believe that Cordelia is your perfect happiness."

"Then how can we…?"

"Because obviously she is not fully human. To be able to make this transformation part of her humanness had to remain intact. The form of Cordelia that you can see has retained 90% of the humanness that she was before and therefore because she isn't 100% human the curse is null and void." I was silent. I finally had all of the answers that I needed. I could be with the practically human version of the woman that I loved. "Have we answered all of your questions lower being?"

"How can I find her again?" I was panicking. She left and I could have very possibly lost the one chance that I had with her.

"She will find you."

"Thank you." I whispered.

--

I had been back in my penthouse for over an hour and she hadn't returned. I was pacing back and forth between my bedroom and living room convinced that she was never coming back. I remembered that when I moved in and I was searching through cupboards and drawers because I was bored and I found some candles. I quickly found them and set a few of them up around my bedroom and lit them.

"Okay, I'm am idiot." I muttered as I looked around the room. I found my candle snuffer, yeah I know a candle snuffer but I can't breathe so I can't blow candles out, I had the snuffer right above the flame when I heard her voice.

"I wouldn't do that do that if I were you." I slowly turned around, snuffer in hand, and smiled.

"Why not?"

"Because I like it." I tossed the snuffer aside and walked over to her.

"Did you get the answers you were looking for?"

"I did." I reached out, pulled her to me and began to kiss her. She wrapped her arms around my neck, running her fingers through my hair as she returned my kiss. I have no idea how long we were kissing before she finally broke for air. I gently pushed her away from me so I could look into her beautiful brown eyes.

"I love you Cordelia Chase."

"I know." Never taking my eyes away from hers I unbuttoned and removed my shirt. When my shirt was on the floor she lifted her shirt above her head and it quickly joined my shirt on floor. We both quickly discarded our pants. I couldn't get over how beautiful she was as my eyes traveled hungrily over her gorgeous body.

"Quit staring at me. You're making me nervous." She whispered shyly.

"I can't help myself. You are so beautiful." I swear to God, Cordelia Chase blushed. I grinned as her eyes traveled down below my waist, my erection quite obvious.

"You're not so bad yourself." This time it was her that initiated the kiss. As soon as she pressed her bra covered breasts to my bare chest I almost came in my boxer shorts. I placed my hands on near naked hips, lifted her into the air and in one swift moment she wrapped her legs tightly around my waist. Never breaking our kiss I carried her to my bed and tumbled onto it, both of us laughing.

"I can't believe that we are finally here." She whispered softly

"I've wanted this, to be inside of you for so long." I said huskily as my hands snaked around her back to unhook her bra.

"How long?" She asked coyly.

"I can't pinpoint the exact moment when I fell in love with you but I can tell you when I realized that I was." I removed her bra and gazed appreciatively at her beautiful breasts until she slapped me upside my head, forcing me to look at her.

"When was that?" She batted her eyelashes at me.

"When Lilah sent you those visions and I saw how much pain you were in and how scared you were I knew that I was very much in love with you."

"You haven't told me how long you have wanted to be inside of me." She trailed a lazy finger down my chest.

"Since the ballet. We were so close." I groaned as her hand slipped under my boxers. "Like right now."

"That night I wanted you to be inside of me too but Gru came back and I…" I didn't want to be thinking about Gru before making love to her.

"Cor no more talking." To make sure she didn't I placed my mouth over hers for a quick kiss. "Understand?" I asked when I pulled away and she nodded. "Very good."

I began to place soft kisses on her jaw line, over to her earlobe where I nibbled on it, causing her to giggle. From her earlobe I moved to her neck softly nipping my way down her neck, the occasional soft moans coming from her mouth encouraged me on my journey. I ran my tongue over her collarbone causing her to shiver. I then let my tongue trail to her beautiful breasts; the breasts that I have wanted to touch, lick and kiss for so long. While licking one breast I took her nipple from her other breast and gently rolled it between my thumb and forefinger. It felt like I had always imagined, just perfect. I took my sweet time savoring the taste and feel of her breasts. "Mmmm." She mumbled when I tore my mouth away and continued my travels to her perfectly flat belly, darting my tongue in and out of her belly button. She was beginning to squirm beneath me and I loved it so I set out to make her squirm some more, a lot more. I slipped two fingers under the waistband of her underwear and I grinned when I heard her sharp intake of breath.

"Cordy…so hot and wet for me." I mumbled as my fingers gently caressed her swollen folds and she groaned. She whimpered when I pulled away from her. "All in good time my love. All in good time."

"Bastard." She muttered. I lifted her hips off the bed and slid her underwear off of her body. I placed soft kisses on her thighs coming very close to her core then backing away really causing her to squirm. "Angel…please." She begged.

"Okay fine." I gave in because I really wanted to taste her. Sitting on my knees I lifted her legs and placed them on my shoulders, lifting her ass off of the bed. I heard her giggle as I lowered my face to her center. I easily found her already engorged clit and I gently began to suck it. I grinned when I heard her groan. While I sucked her clit I reinserted my two fingers back inside of her and she really began to squirm. Her heat and wetness welcomed me. I curled them inside of her and she began panting.

"You like this baby?" I asked lifting my head.

"I…I…hell yeah."

"Do you want more."

"Hell yes." I slipped my tongue inside her and relished in her sweet juices. She tasted better then I had ever thought possible and believe me, I have imagined my mouth on her many times. "Angel." She moaned as I darted my tongue in and out of her lapping up her sweetness. She wrapped her legs around my neck and arched her back forcing my tongue to go deeper inside. Within minutes her gentle running of her fingers became more urgent and she was pushing my face into her. I knew she was getting close so I increased the movement of my tongue and a few seconds later her body was spasming and she was screaming my name. When her trembling ceased I slowly placed her legs back on the bed and crawled back up to her face so I could kiss her.

"Wow." She whispered breathlessly "That was amazing."

"Glad that you enjoyed yourself."

"Now it's your turn." She pulled herself up. "Angel, you still have on way too many clothes. I suggest you take care of that right away." Grinning at her and imaging what was coming, besides me, I lifted my hips and quickly removed my boxers. I saw her eyes widen when they fell on to my erection.

"Well, well, well, I always knew that you would be big but… damn." She said as she slid down the bed beside me. I almost jumped off the off the bed when she ran her fingernail up my shaft. She looked up at me with a wicked smile. "Easy there big guy." I was at her mercy as my penis twitched in anticipation. I watched as she bent forward and placed a soft, gentle kiss on my tip. I heard myself groan out her name as the kisses moved from the tip down and her fingers cupped and kneaded my balls. I felt like a kid getting my first blowjob, she hadn't even put her mouth on me and I felt like I could come at any second. To control myself I clutched at the sheets beside me as her kisses went back up my shaft. The next thing I knew she was taking me, all of me in her mouth. I felt as she puffed some air into her cheeks and she began slowly and deliberately suck me.

"Dear God woman you're going to kill me." I groaned as her teeth scraped against me. The things that she was doing with her mouth were blowing my mind. I felt my balls beginning to tighten and I knew that I was close and I began to panic. I didn't know if she would swallow of if she preferred not to. I felt like such an ass. She must have sensed that I was about to explode in her mouth because she pulled away from me with a "pop". She then kissed her way back up my body, her tongue lingering a few seconds longer at my nipples. I was beginning to become impatient. I had to taste her lips again so I reached up under her arms and pulled her up to my face and hungrily pressed my lips to hers. There was no gentleness about this kiss; it was just full of raw need. Never breaking contact I easily flipped our positions and she was on her back and I was on top. In one easy movement I had her legs spread and I was pushing myself into her. She gasped and I groaned as I filled her. Being inside of her felt absolutely perfect and I could of just stayed perfectly still, savoring the feeling of her walls around me but my body had other ideas. I slowly began to thrust myself inside of her and she wrapped her legs around my waist, pushing me deeper inside of her. I pumped slowly, wanting to make this last as long as I could. Whenever I felt her walls beginning to clutch around me, I pulled out and just focused on kissing her mouth until her body relaxed and then I plunged back into her.

"Angel…don't." She begged as I began to withdraw again.

"Are you ready to come baby?" I grunted.

"Oh God yes." She panted and I had to smile. I began to frantically move within her. Sweat was pouring off of both of our bodies and her breathing had become labored.

"Open your eyes Cordy. I want to see you when you come." She did as I asked and I saw that they were filled with love and desire. As soon as her eyes focused on mine she lost all control and her body began to convulse and she was screaming in passion. When my orgasm hit me it came hard and fast. I don't ever remembering having such a powerful orgasm before. I had no control over my body as I slammed into her, screaming her name into the dark room and then I collapsed on top of her. When I regained motor function I slowly pulled out and lay beside the woman of my dreams. She automatically curled up next to me, laying her head on my chest and her arm around my waist. I easily snaked my arm around her shoulders, pulling her as close to me as possible.

"I always knew making love to you would be amazing but this exceeded every expectation that I had." She whispered softly.

"When we made love in my fantasy it was amazing but this was better than I ever imagined and trust me when I say I have imagined this a thousand times and I'm not evil." She lifted her head up and placed her lips on mine for a soft sweet kiss.

"Everything that I had done in my life, good and bad has led me to this moment laying pleasantly spent in your arms and if I could I wouldn't change one thing because right here, right now made everything that I had been through worth it."

"I couldn't have said it better myself." I said as I kissed the top of her head.

"I love you Angel." I felt a few tears hitting my chest.

"Why are you crying?"

"Because you have made me so happy. I never thought that I could be this happy."

"You've made me just as happy Cordelia." She sniffed and snuggled closer to me. Still holding her I sat up, grabbed the blankets and covered us up. "Sleep now sweetheart."

"You too." I closed my eyes and that night, being wrapped in her arms I had one of the best night of sleep then I had in over a year.

--

I was lying in bed looking out the window watching the sunrise with Cordy in my arms. I loved the glass that Wolfram and Hart installed in the building, I have missed watching sunrises and sunsets and this morning, with Cordy in my arms this mornings sunrise was more spectacular then normal. She sighed and snuggled closer to me, pushing her butt into my abdomen. The second her butt touched my body I started to get hard for her and because somehow during the night we ended up spooning I had a great advantage. I placed soft kisses on her neck and I began running my hand over her breasts.

"Angel." I heard her mumble sleepily. She tried to roll over but I held her tight.

"Stay put." I whispered in her ear.

"But Angel…"

"Shhh. Just work with me." I let my fingers trail down to her center and I found her already soaking wet with desire. "So wet so early Cordy." I mumbled as I slipped to fingers inside of her. She moaned as I worked my fingers inside of her. When I slowly pulled them out she whimpered. I gently grabbed and lifted her leg and placed it behind me. I was so glad that she was so flexible. Before she could react I slipped inside of her. As I slowly thrust myself inside of her she reached behind her, snaking her arm around my neck, pulling me to her face so we could kiss. Occasionally we had to break apart so she could breathe but we continued to kiss until both of are bodies were rocking with orgasms.

"Talk about good morning." She said.

"Very good morning." I agreed pulling out of her and collapsing next to her.

"You are a phenomenal lover Angel."

"You're not so bad yourself." She responded with a resounding smack on my chest. "Oww."

"Not so bad? Did you just seriously say that I wasn't so bad?" I started laughing. I reached out and pulled her on top of me.

"You baby are the best I've ever been with."

"Damn right buster." Grinning I reached behind her and pulled her down to my face.

"Angel." I thought that I heard someone calling my name but I ignored it. "Angel." No, this wasn't happening. "ANGEL." Cordy and I reluctantly pulled away from each other.

"I think that we have company."

"No shit Sherlock." Cordy sat up in bed.

"Who the hell is that bitch?" She hissed as she looked at our visitor.

"Eve." I growled.

So how will Angel deal with his normal day-to-day routine with a very opinionated ghost/human tagging along? Stay tuned to find out. Please, please, please leave me a review with your thoughts.
