You live and you burn

Jan 11, 2006 08:42

My toes were practically curling when suddenly our door burst open. Narrowing my eyes I glanced up from the bed to see Wesley holding a gun. Wesley? And I wasn't the only one who noticed him either. Suddenly Angel wasn't inside of me anymore and instead he was standing up and glaring at our intruder. What ( Read more... )

Looking around, I wondered first of all, where I was because I honestly couldn't remember. Looking down at my clothes, I noticed that for one, I was half-assly dressed and that's when I remembered everything. Where was Faith? Getting up quickly, I pulled up my pants and fastened them before walking out of the building and out into the moonlit covered desert. "Faith!" I yelled and winced at the pain that was going through my body. I remembered some type of dart coming out of nowhere and then I was out. It was all weird but now I felt alot better, for the most part and not in a mood to take over the world. Or be the antichrist. What the hell was the matter with me ( ... )

I walked for awhile before I ran into Angel, the end of my torn wedding dress dragging along against the sand like a bitter reminder of everything I'd lost in the last few months. We'd both lost and I could see it in his eyes when he apologized. Why was he sorry? It wasn't his fault that he got infected by some demon and now Wes couldn't come back anymore. Wes. He'd seen Wes right before gettin' that dart in the chest. At least now he'd know I wasn't crazy ( ... )

She told me not to be sorry, but I couldn’t help it. That’s how I was. It was my fault and it would forever stay my fault because I carried the guilt of the world it seemed. Everything that had happened to anyone that I knew, it was because of me. Well, except for the virus that had killed all of my friends and Buffy. Almost killed Faith. It was my fault though because I hadn’t figured out how to stop it. Everyone was gone, Connor, Cordy, Buffy and now Wes. Who I had seen briefly ( ... )

Angel just seemed to accept the fact that it was Wes I'd been talkin' to all along. At least he didn't think I was crazy now, which was kind of a plus considering the night we'd just had. Course what else could he do given the fact that Wes was the one who burst into our room and shot Angel in the chest. Felt almost kinda bad for him, ya know? That wasn't really much closure. Just hey what's up I have a dart for you wasn't gonna cut it. I'd had the last few months with him. Think it felt real enough for us to wrap up our loose ends. Me and Wes anyway ( ... )

I didn't say anything as we got into the car and I started it up. She asked if we were really married and I had just given her a look, but really, I was actually thinking about it. Pulling away from this and leaving it all behind, we headed back to our place. That big house that we had gotten. I wasn't sure if I even wanted to go back there or if we should find a new place and start over, but for the time being, we were going back to that place.

After a few minutes of driving once we got on the actual road, I shrugged, "We can ... well, still be er, married if you want," I said and looked over at her. It didn't matter really, because there was no one really. It was just us and it didn't matter. We could still be. I er, wouldn't mind it at all. She was the closest thing I've ever had to ... being married for a long while and honestly, I didn't want to let that go.

I raised an eyebrow and looked back over at Angel when he said we could still be married. The way he said it was so tentative and nervous that I wondered if that was what he wanted. To be married? To me? Neither one of us really seemed like the marrying type, especially to eachother. I mean if Soul Boy was ever gonna tie the knot I thought it'd be with Buffy. But Buffy was dead and we were the only thing left of her ( ... )

I guess it didn't matter. Who was there to really care if we were married or not? I guess it didn't matter that much, there wasn't anyone around and well ... yeah. I didn't care either way, but I wanted it. Well, sort of, I guess. I just wanted that connection and bond with someone, but I already had that with Faith, didn't I? We didn't need to be married for that ...

Looking over at her, I shifted uncomfortably in my seat as I drove toward the house we called home. Did I want to be? Well ... yeah, but honestly, it didn't matter none.

"Why do you still want to be?" I asked her, knowing that I didn't answer the question at all. I wanted to make sure that she wanted me before I told her ... er, that I still wanted to be married to her. I mean, if you think this is all stupid, then we don't have to say anything and besides, I guess it really doesn't matter that much, there isn't anyone around.

"Way to avoid the question." I raised an eyebrow at him as he kept driving. I knew the whole thing made him nervous and really? Why shouldn't it? I mean gettin' married made normal guys jump through the roof all itchy and here we were. Angel got infected by some psycho demon that turned him into an even bigger psycho and then kidnapped me and dragged me off for our big satanic wedding. I'd love to see a Lifetime special on it.

Of course, there was no Lifetime anymore so it hardly mattered. And sometimes I found myself wondering whether life was worth living without TV before I realized that I was bein' a total dumbass.

"If I say yes does that mean we get a honeymoon?" I asked him curiously with a smirk. Hey, we'd seen way too many hard times especially lately to not have earned a vacation by now. I wanted to party, I was tired of being miserable.

Rolling my eyes as I drove, I just shook my head slightly and paid attention and listened for her, but she was quiet for a little bit. Then she asked that if she said yes, would she get a honeymoon. A small grin formed on my lips as I glanced over at her and shrugged. Well ... she would, and I felt weird talking about it right now, well, I didn't, but I did. I knew what I could do to her and how I could make her feel, but we really never ... er, talked about it. It was something new for me ( ... )

I gave him a weird look at the sly grin he was sendin' my way. The two of us had been through hell over the last few weeks. Between the plague and The Guardian and Wes and crazy ass demons infecting Angel we deserved a little bit of fun, right? A little bit of happiness. A little bit of something besides all this nothing. Nothing but pain and we? We needed to have fun ( ... )

She grabbed my arm, turning me around and I just stared at her. What was with that grin? What was she doing? I pretty much just looked at her with a deer in headlights kind of look because honestly, I didn't know what was going on with her. But, then she kissed me hard and I couldn't help but kiss her back. After all, she is my wife. I felt a tingle go up my spine when I thought about that ( ... )
