So, that was it. Connor had agreed that we'd go over to Wesley's and talk to Buffy about him going back to Sunnydale with her. It still didn't sound right. I was going over to Wesley's to talk to Buffy. Cordy said she'd go with us, and I was so glad she agreed. Talking with Buffy and Connor would be bad enough, but if Wesley was there?

I looked over at Angel. This wasnt the place he really wanted to be right about now. I could sense his discontentness. I'm sure if Lorne was around he would be having a headache right about now.

Walking over to him, I took his hand into mine and gave it a small squeeze. "It will be okay." I smiled a bit before heading into the apartment complex. "And if it isnt, Then I will make sure that it will be okay."

I knew I was going to end up being in the middle but I also knew what Angel was going through since I had been through it as well.

"It will be okay. And if it isnt, Then I will make sure that it will be okay."

As I stared up at the building as I felt Cordy's hand slip into mine. Why couldn't those days we had together just have lasted forever? We'd been so happy, and I knew the only thing that kept me from being too happy was remembering occasionally what I had to come home to. To a former best friend who betrayed me and from that I had a son who hated me.

And now.. Buffy was staying with him. Even though Buffy and I were over and I now was with Cordy.. there was still that sense of that I didn't want her to be with anyone else. From the look on Buffy's face the day we found her in the hotel, I'm guessing she felt the same. And the fact she might have something with Wesley? That bothered me even more.

I glanced back at Connor. I was usually good at reading people.. most people. But with Connor,.. maybe it was the fact that he was my son. Wasn't the fact that we were blood related supposed to make up more connected and not less ( ... )

Buffy had left the bed soon after I'd fallen asleep I think. When I woke up she was gone and the spot where she had been cold. For a moment I thought she'd left, had packed up her things and gone home. I couldn't actually blame her if she had. It's not as though I've any claim on her in any way. But then I heard the television in the living room and sighed relieved. As much as I wouldn't have blamed her if she'd left, it would have hurts ( ... )

The tension between Wesley and I didn't exactly get any better the longer we stood there. Cordy and Buffy didn't exactly seem comfortable being in the same situation that we were, but at least they didn't join us in the staring. Glancing to Wesley again, I raised a brow at his question but otherwise still stood still. I heard Buffy say that I wouldn't do anything to him, and she was probably right..probably ( ... )

I watched as the adults in the room continued to stare and snarl at each other. Buffy had made a good point. This was my decision to make and my sitting on the couch and being silent wasn't helping matters. I just felt incredibly uncomfortable with the tension in the apartment and honestly just wanted to bolt for the door ( ... )

One doesn't work along side someone for so long and not recognize certain looks. And look Angel had now? I recognized. He'd say one thing, but think something different. If he and I were alone here now, and I'd invite him in, I'd be a dead man. Not that I had felt particularly alive since that night. Not until recently anyway.

I glanced over at Connor and part of me was glad he was staying in Los Angeles. He needed to work things out with his father, but that was going to be difficult And part of me just wanted to take him with us, because I still felt that threat coming from Angel. He could say he wasn't going to hurt Connor all he wanted, I still had that vivid memory, with that look of death in his eyes.

At least I'd have something to snack on.Giving Angel a tired look, I turned back to Connor. "You've made your decision and I shall respect that. Just know that you can call me whenever you need help. And I suppose that's all we really needed to talk about ( ... )

"Wesley." I said, stepping in front of him as he walked to his bedroom. I waited until he looked at me before speaking. "Thank you. I-I'm not sure I made the right choice, but I do hope you and I will still continue to get to know each other ( ... )
