After our talk and fabulous meal of pizza and cheesy bread Lorne and I got ready to spar. I knew that I had to take it easy on him and to be honest I planned on it, but apparently I didn't need to be as easy...I mean he either had some pent up anger, or he was stronger than he thought

Pylean genes, I'll be damned. I didn't expect to last one minute with this girl in a sparring match, but much to my suprise I ended up knocking her flat on her ass more times than I thought I possible. Well, go me.

In actuality though, I felt terrible everytime I got her on the ground (Although when can I ever take credit for getting a woman on her back?) because as I had stated before, I was too much of a gentlemen to even think about taking a swipe at a woman.

But Angelina had insisted that I spar with her. And I guess I had too much pent up anger and frustration to do a half assed job. So I just gave'r.

When we'd finished, she was out of breath and suprisingly, I wasn't. But I sat down beside her when it was all said and done, picked up a water bottle, and took a long slug.

"Sorry about the wallop to the noggin' there, Kitten," I apologized. "Guess I got a bit carried away."

After the fight, and getting the girl to safety, we came back and the night was quiet after that. I spent time thinking about things, about Buffy, about Spike, about what we had faced, and the fact that I wasn't sure Buffy was going to pick me.

At some point, I fell asleep, and woke up later to a new day. I decided to get some work done in the office to take my mind off of things I didn't want to think about anyway.

I walk in, and Angelina, Caitlen, and Lorne are there. And oddly...Angelina has an ice pack on the back of her neck.

"Hey...did you get attacked, Angelina? Are you okay?"

I shake my head

"Though I have learned that I shouldn't challenge Lorne to a sparring match"

I smiled up at him then looked back down as my head began to throb again.

"And for the record Lorne, this isn't all your fault."

I said softly to him.

"Are you sure, Crumbcake?" I asked her, "Because, I certainly feel at fault."

I gave her a meek smile, and looked up at Angelcakes and gave him a big stupid grin.

"I-I didn't know I could hit that hard," I said sheepishly to him, as if that explained everything.

I let the two bicker and they actually took it into the other room which left Lorne and I alone yet again. I could feel the headache worsening so I tried to get the bottle of asprin open, which didn't happen, damn child proof top.

I gave up all together on the asprin and just laid my head on the desk and tried to hold in the whimpers. Dammit, where is Leo..I need him.

I walked over to where Angie was hunched over on the desk and took the aspirin bottle out of her hand and opened it for her. I shook a couple out into her hand rubbed her shoulder gentle. "There, there, Kitten," I said softly to her. I shook out a few aspirin of my own and tossed them into my mouth. I wasn't really in pain or anything, I just took them for the hell of it. Just seemed like the right thing to do.

"We've done enough for one day," I told her with a sigh. "I think I just need to go relax or do something incredibly mind numbing. Come back to my apartment and watch a movie with me."

That was awfully forward and demanding, but I wasn't really in the mood to ask. I was going back home one way or the other, if she wanted to come she was more than welcome.

I took the asprin from him but didn't move my head to actually take them. I wanted to hide the tears.

"What about Cait"

I asked softly

[lornegreen]

Hmmm, right. Forgot about the little nipper.

"Well, where do you think she might have run off to?" I asked, looking around and scratching my head. "Want me to go look for her?"
