Chapter 19
A/N: I own nothing from the Angel or Buffyverses…
Please Review guys! Nice to hear from everyone!
This is going to be a bit of Cordy/Angel fluff to fill in the gap between her coming back to life and the present day of the story.
Angel watched Cordelia as she slept the sunlight streamed through the windows giving her almost an angelic glow. This was kind of ironic considering she was about as close to an angel as anyone could possibly get.
Every day he almost had to pinch himself to realize that his life was real and that she was alive and back in his arms where she belonged. Together they were a team and she was his anchor away from the darkness that would always plague him. She was the only person who loved the good and bad in him and never judged him when he strayed from the path of good.
As soon as Gunn had gotten out of the hospital after the fight with Wolfram and Hart they had immediately eloped to Vegas. It was a small ceremony with just there little twisted family, Connor was best man and Bella was Cordy's maid of honor.
She was his best friend, his seer, his partner in crime, his wife and his soul-mate and she still made his heart swell every time he looked at her.
"Are you staring again?" Cordelia yawned not opening her eyes
Angel chuckled "How can I not when the view is this good"
She opened her eyes and gave him one of her thousand watt beauty queen smiles
"Good morning handsome."
"Good morning beautiful."
Cordelia leant over and gave him a soft kiss and repeated the words she said every morning since she came back from the dead "I'm not going anywhere, you're stuck with me for eternity"
Every morning those words made Angel sigh softly with relief and the fear that he felt every night when she went to sleep lifted from his shoulders.
Cordelia sat up in bed and stretched her arms over her head revealing a tantalizing piece of skin between her camisole and spotted pajama shorts.
She bounced out of bed and headed towards the shower, Angel watching her like a tiger eyeing up its prey.
"We should really hurry, brunch is in an hour….Bella said it's going to be a fun one whatever that means" Cordelia said cheekily standing in the doorway of the ensuite knowing Angel's eyes were burning into her back.
She slowly pulled the camisole over her head and dropped it to the floor, Cordelia looked at Angel over her shoulder and with a wink smirked "Are you going to join me?"
Angel didn't need to be told twice, he sprinted out of bed and followed his wife into the steaming hot shower.
Do you guys want the smutty bits?
Happy to put them in if you need them! :P
