After the awkward time with Wesley, I started cleaning up the hotel lobby. Regular soap and water wouldn't touch the mess, but when I added bleach, it came up like a dream. Too bad I couldn't have doused myself with bleach...wait, not too bad. I finished cleaning up the lobby when Charles came strolling through the front doors. He saw me with the

I was exhausted, emotionally and physically drained, and all I wanted to do was sit down and cry. But I held it together as Wesley let me inside, I saw Cordelia asleep in the bed and whispered, "Speaking of 'bloody hell' things, what are you doing here?" I took the ice he offered and held it to my face. I sighed, leaning my head back on the chair.
He hadn't answered me and when I looked at him, he was staring at me. I knew that look and so I just sighed and recounted everything that happened from when Charles came home until right then, sitting in the hotel room. "And now here I am...do you think Angel will hate me for blowing up his hotel?"

I glanced over at Cordelia who was beginning to wake up. Sighing, I ran a hand through my hair. "Fred," I started softly. "We don't know how it happened or when. All we know is that Angel isn't around anymore. He turned into Angelus and he turned Buffy. The vampire Slayer." I think she remembered who Buffy was. I certainly remember the small show Cordy and I put up to explain that to her.
"Cordy called me to tell me about Angelus." And of course I came running. Being the good watcher that I was. How ironically hilarious. "Oh and we broke Faith, the other vampire Slayer out of jail." I wonder what was keeping her. Lord, I hope everything is alright with her. I shouldn't have let her stalk off into the night alone, vampire Slayer or not.

I just shook my head and sighed, "And I thought my day couldn't get any worse...." I trailed off, my eyes closing as more tears trailed down my face. I shook my head, sitting up, "I...I don't have anywhere to go, Wesley..." I swallowed, wiping my face. I looked at him and sighed, "What now....?"

"Comedy actress? Comedy? I'm about to go horror on your ass if you don't stop laughing like a jackass." I snap and he tries to quiet down, still snickering as we walk along. He asks if we need anything else and he starts in again, snicker turning into laughter, laughter into hysterics. We are standing in the middle of the store, one of us an apparent raving lunatic. I reach over in the dairy case and pull a can of whip cream down, pop the cap and tap him on the shoulder. He looks up mid laugh and I spray his face with whipcream and smirk, dropping the can in the basket and pushing off toward the front.
"Have some cream with your scones." I call over my shoulder, a smirk on my face.

I think we've everything. Don't you? Sweetheart?"Oh this is war Wesley, this is war." I smirk back at him and wipe the mess from my face, flinging my hands to the floor, chocolate flying everywhere and people start yelling. "OH shut up you babies, it's chocolate." I grab the front of Wes's shirt and wipe my hands on it, watching as he looks at me in horror ( ... )
