"Well, him suddenly becoming CEO of Hells personal lawfirm, without reason, constitutes as a sudden lapse of sanity. That, or shit load of lies. I came to find out which it is. I'm leaning towards the latter, though. I mean, it doesn't seem Angel like to be here. Not after all the fighting he did against this place."
I managed a small laugh “Angel..evil. Nope. Believe me I would know if it was Angelus. All Angel up in there. Besides he’s still crazy as ever for you. Should see the look on his face every time I mention you.” I gave a light smile and glanced into her eyes. I watched as she seemed to be deep in thought. Almost like she didn’t know what to say. Guess you wouldn’t know what to say when your facing someone you told ‘I love you’ to but didn’t mean it. And now to top things off was here to get with the ex again. Must be hard.
I was starting to think that maybe I should just leave, the her alone finally. Didn’t want to add more stress to her life then I already did. Was always a problem for the slayer. I was bout to open my mouth, make some witty comeback bout her and Angel but then all of a sudden out of no where she came crashing down into my arms. I couldn’t believe what bloody happened. I was in shock. Don’t know if it was happiness, worry or fear. The way she came crashing down was a bit off, especially for Buffy.
Without thinking bout it I wrapped my arms around her tiny body and held her close. She felt so warm within my touch. So right and perfect. How I missed this, never thought I would feel her touch again. She rested her head against my chest. This almost felt too good to be real. How could this be real, never had much luck in the love area. Always wanted it but never got it. At least how I wanted it. Was too must of a fool for love.
Hey face was full of tears as she looked deep inside my eyes. Could feel her burning though my soul, every inch of it. She was all I ever thought bout. All I ever wanted, was right here now with me. Could this really be Buffy Summers, right here right now with me crying. The moment that seemed to last forever was finally broken when soft words came out of those lips of hers.
"I'm sorry."
I titled my head and gave her a somewhat surprised look. Don’t see why she would be telling me she was sorry. Oh right, probably saying she’s sorry for wanting to be with Angel. Wait, then why would she be in my arms right now. Don’t think she would be doing that, especially the chance that Angel could see this. So then if it wasn’t that what was it.
"I'm sorry for giving you that amulet, when I knew and still know, you were...are, a champion. I had no right to put the literal weight of the world on your shoulder."
“Don’t be sorry bout that luv. I had to do what had to be done. Couldn’t let you go killing yourself now could I? And we needed a bleeding champion so that’s where I came into play. Someone had to save the world now didn’t they. Besides I didn’t stay gone forever now did I” I had a slight smile. To my surprise she wasn’t done with why she was sorry. That would’ve made sense if that was the only reason why she was sorry and all crying like a baby. You know the whole its my fault you died thing, feeling guilt. But nope the slayer had more to say.
"I'm sorry for not having had the courage until then to realize that I DO love you."
I couldn’t bloody believe the words I heard coming from her mouth. It felt as if my heart skipped, ok right forgot don’t have a bleeding heart but you get the picture. Everything inside of me came crashing down as I heard that, tears actually started to roll down my cheeks. A bloody vampire crying in front of a slayer. What had this world come to.
I wrapped my arms around her tighter, pulling her into a tight hug. I wasn’t gonna let go of her. Not now not ever. I never expected to here this from her. Not at all. “I love you” I said as I continued to hold her “Your all I bloody think bout. Your always on my mind Summers, can’t get you out. Never could, even when I was bad, I could never get you out. That’s why Dru left me you know. Saw you in my head. That’s all she saw in my head. Of course then it was plots of killing you, but I guess deep down I always loved you.” I placed a soft kiss on her forehead and continued to hold her. My eyes closed as I took in this moment, as I took in her scent and the feeling of her in my arms. Beat everyone around us was enjoying the show, could only imagine.
