Angel was alone in the room. In theory he should've been studying but in reality that wasn't exactly happening. Between finals, graduation, moving to LA, and, oh yeah, the crush on his best friend he had a tiny bit extra to brood about ( Read more... )

After Bel's phone call, Callisto came down to 238 and hesitantly knocked on the door. "Angel?"

There was a long pause, then Angel opened the door. He looked... neutral.

"Hey," he said. "They find Piper?"

"Piper? Bel didn't say anything about Piper," Callisto frowned. "Did something happen to her too?"

"Turned into a Fury," Angel said. He stepped aside if Callisto wanted to come in. "Bel and Veronica were going after her, see if they could change her back."

"Fury as in the drive you mad if they think you're not doing the vengence thing properly Furies?" Callisto came in, still frowning. "What did she do to you?"

"Tried to kill me," Angel said, shrugging. He gestured to where Piper's scratchmarks had healed to faint lines of red. "Didn't work."

Stoic was still in place though.

"Angel, Bel called me saying we needed to talk. Bel," Callisto said. "People trying to kill you happens far too frequently for him to think you need to talk about it."

"I tend not to talk much anyway," Angel pointed out. Strange how turning towards the kitchen meant he didn't even have to come close to maintaining eye contact. "Want something to drink?"

Funny how quick Callisto could move when she wanted to. "No." She went to put a hand on his chest. "I want to know what it was that made Bel of all people think you need to share your soulpain."

Angel looked as though he was about to give another denial, but then her hand made contact.

Right over the spot on his chest where, underneath his shirt, a cross-shaped scar could still be found.

Angel looked away. Fast.

"Angel," Callisto's tone made it clear this wasn't a request. "What happened?"

There was a long pause. Anyone who thought that it was harder for him to find the right words than it usually was would be right.

"All the people I hurt. Felt it."

"All of them?" Callisto asked softly.

Angel silently nodded.

Callisto didn't really have a good response for that. So she just held out her arms in case he needed a hug.

"I'll be fine." He put an arm around her, comforting her more than taking comfort. "Had worse."
