Sliding the car to a stop next to the curb in front of the Sky Bar I was ready to take down a gang of vampires. I'd been out of the fight for so long, either dead or on the wrong side that I was just itching to dust some dumbass vamp. I'd considered dropping Cordy off at the hotel on our way but it would have slowed me down. Wasting time has

Rolling my eyes as the other two vamps turned to face Cordy I hit both of them with a stake in each fist, watching as they turned to dust. Think the vamps have gotten dumber while I've been away.
"Would it kill you to let me take care of the evil fiends? Remember, you brought me back to do that sort of thing." I'd known she could take care of herself, but since when was she surprise attack wonderwoman?

"Yeah, I did." I said, and he did kind of have a point. But I wasn't about to sit in the car while he ran off to play the big hero. I mean, yeah I get that's his whole deal being champion and everything but hey! This visiongirl can kick a little ass too. "But I've been killing evil fiends for the last few years while you've been dead so I guess you'll just have to deal with a little help." I smiled at him, knowing he couldn't stay irritated at me as long as I smiled brightly enough. I was Cordelia, that's what I did.
Now that the monsters were dead hopefully the vision part of the evening, was long over? It wasn't exactly the things dreams were made of. I wanted to kiss him and bring him home and remove his fashion faux pas and....whoa! Okay, I realized that it had been awhile and I no longer had a loofah toting phantom hanging around but sheesh!

Damn it, I was trying to look irritated when she flashed that smile of hers. I knew that smile, been looking forward to seeing it for more then a while.
"Don't think I don't know what your trying to do." Folding my arms I set my jaw. "Did I teach you how to be so sneaky? Cause I really don't remember doing that."

"Oh please." I raised an eyebrow at him. "You teach me how to be sneaky?" My smile grew wider as I looked him over. Sure, Angel could on occasion be the king of all things stealthy but usually? He was always tripping over himself when he was trying really hard to be super stealthy. "You'd be surprised how sneaky cheerleaders are." I informed him, and wasn't that just the truth?
I tilted my head and looked up at him as he tried his hardest to look irritated with me. He wasn't pulling it off very well. "Come on." I said taking his arm. "Let's go home. I mean, unless you want to stay out here and watch me kill some more vampires." I teased him lightly.

"Ok, ok. Don't want you showing me up anymore. Besides you might get bored and decide to have a go with me."

"Have a go with you?" I raised an eyebrow at him as we got closer to the car. "Someone's getting a little ahead of himself." I teased him, despite knowing exactly what he had meant. Although, can we just talk about how long it's been since vision girl has gotten some? It's been a long long time, so mostly I was okay with him getting ahead of himself.

"So, new topic?" Right, lets all watch as Angel pulls his foot out of his mouth and hobbles around like a eunuch. "Did Harmony actually survive the whole me destroying Wolfram and Hart deal? I never was bored enough to try and haunt her or anything." Winking I added a quietly. "Too busy watching you shower."
Reply
"Yeah, Harm survived. Although I haven't heard from her since, last I knew she ran off to Jamaica or something with some guy." Why were we talking about Harmony. Sheesh. If he missed her so much he could just run right to Jamaica and fight vampires there.
"Too busy watching you shower."
I gave him a sharp look until a small smile crept over my face. Well dammit, it was about time.
"What? Did you take Haunting 101 from Spike?"

"You know your going to pay for the one right? Besides, I have all those years of being jealous about Dennis and his loofah skills to get over too."
Pulling her closer to me I put one arm over her as we walked. The whole not touching thing was bothering me. It was time for some touching.

"Stupid super vampire senses. Eavesdropper!" I accused him but couldn't help but smile again as his arm draped possessively around me. Skin! Human contact! Alright, I'm pathetic, I admit it.
