Because of my personal and professional life, I will be unable to finish the series. Instead of leaving people hanging, I am posting the IM rough draft that the series was based on.The story is here as well as the plot and the smut. My good friend Dallas transcribed the IM format into something you could read. Thank you Dallas for all the hard work!

Part f
Back at the camp
 The gypsies were gathered at the main camp, packing as many in the main house as they could. With night coming, their fear intensified. Giles was at the dining table with Jenny looking over a large piece of paper with which Giles was trying to make a map of the catacombs. Giles looked up at them entering. "What are you up to? You're both ready for tonight?" he asked quietly.

Angelus tried to ignore the fact every Gypsy was watching him. He felt like a a bug under a microscope, or more likely a dog in the hen house. It was enough to make his skin crawl. "I have arranged for a guard for the base camp while we go into the catacombs. I have known him since 1870." Giles hung his head at the thought and shook it...

Buffy grinned. "It's all right Giles I just meet him and I trust him.. any human who even thinks of staking him, or anything else answers straight to me." she looked at the gypsies, quite a few spoke enough English to follow what was happening and was telling the rest.

Karl came up irritated. "You are leaving a vampyre here as a guard?" Buffy heard the anger and fear in his voice even while she didn't understand his words.

Angelus nodded. "Yes an old cold feeder named Dominic. A Cold feeder is a vampire who doesn't feed on human. Karl didn't look happy with his words. He'll stay outside. He will be the first line of defense and will give a warning if anyone comes around..."

Jenny drew Giles to the side and whispered in English in is ear when they reached the kitchen. "Doesn't angel seem a bit different than usual?" Giles just looked at her in confusion and she went on. "Isn't Angel acting... different, like he's not really himself?"

"I noticed he seems more aggressive, more..." A horrified expression crossed his face and jenny nodded. "I need to ask Buffy."

They returned to the living room where Buffy was talking through a girl that was translating for her. "Like I say he's my friend too, and under MY protection." She looked the headman in the eye and raised an eyebrow seeing if Karl got the message.

Karl thought a minute. The Vampire slayer was not the one he wanted to piss off. "We trust the judgment of the Vampire Slayer."

Giles comes back to the table. "Buffy will you come up to my room for a minute? We need to talk in private." Buffy frowned but followed Giles up to the room he shared with Jenny. Angelus went outside. There was no way he would stay in the house alone with a in the cluster of gypsies.

Giles turns to Buffy when she walks in the room and he closes the door. "What is up with Angel?"

She stopped cold. "Uumm nothing?" she knew her watcher well enough he wasn't buying it. "He's still annoyed for pulling us back from our trip?" Giles just looked at her and she and Giles both knew she was flailing. "The whole truth?"

"Yes please." Was said with crisp British tones.

"I'm not sure if Angel wants me to tell you yet..." she looked at the stern face of her Watcher and chewed her lip. He sat on his bed and made not move to do anything. She realizes he will not budge till he gets it all. "All right I'll tell you. It's not Angel down there."

Giles was confused. "Who is it?" She just raised an eyebrow surprised, he should have picked it up faster. "Angelus?" he finally squeaked. "Oh just bloody lovely... what the hell happened?" Panic was filling his voice.

"It's a long story but yeah it's Angelus.  You know of the bonding, and well… I fell in love with him too, he isn't the monster they wrote about Giles. I fell in love with him. Then he and Angel merged sort of, because of this fight they put Angelus in control. Angelus agreed to fight for my sake. Angelus isn't evil anymore. I don't know what happened but he's not. We're in love. You remember the night we questioned him, what the deal was: that he had control of the body till dawn of the body… and me?" It embarrassed her, but she knew she had to get it out. Angel had been adamant about not hiding anything from Giles.

"I know you are bonded to the both of them. Did he hurt you?  OH God, Buffy we just brought Angelus back into the tribe’s home base. Buffy for Gods Sake! That isn't just any vampire down there... You KNOW what he was!”

Buffy shook her head. "No more than I could stand, and when he did I liked it." Giles blushed at the reference realizing that damned demon was introducing his Slayer to BDSM. "Giles, have you listened to me? He's not evil anymore, and he's under my control. He won't harm these people! Bring him up and ask him if you wish. He'll tell you…" Giles rolled his eyes. Buffy Glared at him, “All right I've had it.” She went to the door and yelled down. “Angelus, can you come up here?”

Angelus heard her and walked back in and through the living room ignoring the gypsies cringing as he walked by to go up the stairs. He entered the room looking at a fearful Giles and frustrated Buffy.

Buffy sighed and motioned him to join her. “Tell him the truth, he knows who you are. He just won't understand.” She leaned into him as he put his arm around her tenderly.

Angelus just looked at Giles. “He won't believe me. Buffy he is a Watcher. I am surprised he hasn't met me at the door with a crossbow.  He has a history of 150 years of what the watchers have managed to write down about what I did and they didn't know most of it. Give him some slack. He is obviously giving me the benefit of the doubt so let it ride
I think it is dawning on him if I was going to it would have already occurred”

Buffy nodded with a slight smile as he stroked her shoulder relaxing her. “All right, you have a plan for tonight don't you, I see it on your face, I also feel I'm not going to like it.” She could feel the warring emotions in him he liked it but disliked it.

“You think your not going to like it, Giles will hate it.” He took a wicked grin as he announced it anticipating the Watcher’s response. “I walk into the catacombs carrying you tied and bound...”

“LIKE BLOODY HELL!” Giles erupted.

 Angelus shrugged. “See, I told you he's hate it. I carry you in and take over the lead by my prowess. I release you later and we wipe out the rest who I didn’t get in my bid for leader.”

Buffy felt his response to it. He really thought it was the best way. She looked up at him and nodded. “I'll do it.”

Giles sputtered in his anger. “Buffy to take you tied and bound into a vampire lair... -how do I know you didn't plan this from the start?”

Angelus was across the room and holding Giles off the floor with a growl. Listen watcher... I don't relish killing my friends for you fucking gypsy bitches
Family. But I am not going to let Buffy get hurt in the process do you under stand me?”.

Buffy was at his side her hand on his arm “Angelus put him down now!” She said in a quite voice. He backed away form Giles and went to the window to look at the dark. Buffy joined him there.

Angelus looks at her; his eyes a deep golden, his game face melting to human and his fangs receding. She put her hand on his cheek softly caressing the receding ridges. She could feel the anger and the frustration. This was tearing him apart. “Easy Angelus. After this, we'll go back to the hotel, make love for days, you can play to your hearts content… Master.” She said quietly in a whisper against his lips as she kissed him.

Giles looked at them, him calming just to her voice and touch. *Mi god she does have him completely under her control*

 Angelus continued the conversation. “You will take the young men of the tribe and go in the back way to the pens and get the prisoners out. Anyone in the main area we'll get out or they are dead. The binds will have to be tight or else they'll know. It will be a replay of the Castle bar... ok? Can you do it?”

Buffy nodded. “You'll untie me when it's time and we fight?”  Angelus nodded. “Let’s go  then”

It took another half hour to explain the plan to the gypsies.” You follow in the vehicles... I gave you the map of the entrance and the way to the pens.  We will go in, wait 15 min then get the prisoners out of there.”

Karl looked at Angelus. Once a killer of his people, now their savior. “What about you?”

“We'll take out the head vamps. They won’t have guards, they know no mortal knows the back way that I showed you. The pack doesn't keep minions. I hope you know without me explaining we're taking out the whole pack.”

Karl was stunned. “You’re killing the entire pack?”

“Every last member last member who stands with Antonia and her desire to destroy
the clan.” Angelus said quietly but no one doubted his word. Karl just nodded.

Angelus looked at Buffy and motioned  for her to precede him to the car. Dom is lounging under the tree out in the yard. Buffy waved as Angelus went up to the bolonde vampire. “Protect the house. Warn them of any attack. They'll do the rest.”

Dominic nodded and laughed. “Who would have thought of Angelus as slayer?” He shook his head in disbelief. “You definitely have balls.”

Angelus laughed and got into the car and they drove away. He looked at Buffy who was
 A laughed and gets into the car and they drive away. “Are you ready for this Buffy?
 I need you to play the part of defeated Slayer. You will not like the side of me you are going to see to night.  If I am any less Angelus in this, we are dead.

“Yes.  I know that, just make sure it's believable. I know that you'll keep me safe they will free the gypsies. That's what's important here.”

“Yes it is, but remember YOU are what’s important to me. Remember that no matter what I say, not matter what I do, PLEASE remember that!”

She looked at him. Angelus, your going to need to hit me.”

“I planned on it.”

They stopped and he pulled over to the side of the road near the catacombs. They got out and he pulled her to him and kissed her deeply. Buffy shut her eye knowing she will see the horrible demon Angelus was before he bonded with her. She moaned as he kissed along her jaw line and down her neck pausing at her jugular. Trusting him completely she arched her neck back she whimpered softly in anticipation or fear. She wasn’t sure...

With a possessive growl, he sank his fangs into her neck. It was a rough bite, which tore at the tender muscles of the neck as he pulled way leaving a wound one would expect to see on a defeated slayer. He licked the bleeding closed then pulled back and suddenly backhanded her and she went down into darkness.

When she awoke, she found herself covered in blood. Her jaw ached where she had been struck and she knew it had a bruise that would color her face for days. Her split lip gave her a taste of her own blood. She felt how tight she was tied and she could barely breathe never mind move.

“Slayers awake I see.” Angelus’ rough callous voice called her to attention. She looked around. She was on a rough-hewn table in a cavern lit with torches and lanterns. She instinctively flinched back from him and the menace in his voice. She looked up at him the defeat plain in her face.

A tall long haired brunette woman with a hard oval face and ebony eyes walked over to look at her like she was some sort of a bug. Her slim body was taught with excitement. “I can't believe you Angleus... you actually bagged the Hellmouth slayer?”

Angelus made a growl that became a self-satisfied purr, which was at odds with the emotions Buffy could sense in him. He was nervous and on edge around the woman. “This is the bitch that killed Lothos and the Master!” He sounded smug and felt like he was on the edge of battle, to Buffy.

“Man, is this how you win fights, tie up your opponents?” Buffy chastised in a cold, hard voice while looking at the female vampire with cool disdain. “Yeah and guess who's next on my list.” She threatened in a sweet mocking voice. She checked her bonds. She wouldn’t get free unless she was released.

Angelus was boasting to the woman and several vampires out of her range of site. “It wasn't easy... but it is worth having her alive, for awhile.” She finally got a good look at Angelus and he looked like hell. He was bruised, clothes torn, scratches. There was a wound on the abdomen where it looked like she tried to stake him. Angelus strolled over to her and ran his finger along her body and grabbed on of her breasts. “You’re my plaything now slayer bitch. Your watcher won't help you now little girl.”

Buffy knew to look upset at the apparent claim that he killed her Watcher, knowing as all the vampires were clustered around to see the slayer that Giles was leading the raid on the pens. “Give me a stake and I'll finish the job. This is how you get your women? How pathetic!” She spit at him. “Fuck you.”

Angelus laughed at her defying him like a mouse flipping off a lion. The woman walked up behind Angelus and ran her hands over his chest and down his sides possessively with the long comfort of a lover. She pulled his waist and pressed her heat against his taught back. She draped herself on his form and watched the slayer while she manhandled Angelus with calm familiarity.

She whispered in his ear loud enough for her and any other vampire that might want to stake claim to him to hear. Angelus was HERS! “It’s been so long Angelus. After you finish her, come to my quarters and take care of me?” She ran her hand down and grabbed his cock and strokes him through the pants. Unconsciously he thrust into her hand.

Buffy fought to hide her jealousy and anger at watching this woman manhandle her consort. “Sure your slut will let you keep me? Man, Lady I'd be worried if that's all you can get and gone for so long…may there was a reason for that. Like you skinny sorry ass wasn’t worth the bother!”

The slap came out of no where at a speed that was binding. Buffy head spun and she dropped her head to the table with a thump. She felt as if her head had been taken off. “Listen slut. I would curb the tongue or I'll cut it out of you!”

Buffy licked her reopened lip again and glared at her. “That was your best? Christ I know fledglings that hit better than that! Slut? You’re calling *me* a slut? Man that's rich...”

Angelus was feeling his control of the situation sliding though his fingers like fine sand. “Now, now, now Antonia leave it. You know I like them with fire.”

“Fire will get you burned Angelus... now where the hell have you been? You left here almost a hundred years ago without a good bye, fuck you or by your leave. Even Dom didn't know where you went.”

Buffy was swallowing the blood from her reopened lip. “Probably met some other nice slut. One with a better arm…AND body.” She was forgetting the boundaries and was running her mouth in her usual style. Buffy stated thinking of him as a normal vamp for now. “Christ days of our lives vamp style can't this wait?”

 Angelus is nervous and not happy to be having *this* argument in front of Buffy. He walked over to her and grabbed Buffy by the hair and arched her head back baring her neck. He put his mouth really close to her ear. In a cold voice he whispered. “I would advise you to shut the fuck up now.” Buffy flinched at his vehemence and was quiet.

Antonia was glaring at him with cold calculating eyes as she went up to him and ran her hands over his chest to the waistband of his pants possessively. “So lover, where did you go?”

Angelus shifted his position nervously. Antonia was an elder to him and could be quite vindictive when crossed. “Around.”

She mimicked him in a sweet voice but with ice in her eyes. “Around?”

“I pissed of the gypsies, a lot, with killing that healer. They got really pissy and so I got a curse on my ass and I thought it was better to leave than bring it back to the pack. So I split. Only just broke it last month”

She slapped him across the face letting her rage flow.  “Try again lover... The slut here's right. You took off with another vamp didn't you?”

Angelus shook his head and snarled. “No. No I didn't.  I haven't laid a hand on another vampire since my last time with you except for my sire.”

“Ohh yeah right.” She looked at him crafty thought playing across her face, which made his blood run cold. “I don't believe you, but I have an idea…” she ran her hands over him and chuckled then licked along his cheek. “You'll just have to make it up to me. After all, I'm the leader here now. You’re under me now.”

“No problem, except I don't submit. You know that. But I did leave rather rudely.”

She gave him an evil smile. “You do to me, which means I get the slayer as MY plaything.” She ran her hand over Buffy possessively causing the Slayer to shiver.

“I don't think so Antonia. I worked too hard for her. I am not giving up my pleasures I plan to have with her because you got your feelings hurt.”
 
‘Oh, but you'll be to busy making things up to me.” She smiled coldly. “Right now, I'm going to play with the new toy.” She ran a cool hand down Buffy’s cheek smiling sweetly as fear slowly entered Buffy's eyes.

Angelus was panicked which was not letting Buffy stay cool. It was out of his control and she knew it. She was a dead Slayer. Angelus grabbed Antonia and thrusting his hips into her he tried to distract her. “Come on I just get that damn curse broken and you want to play with a slayer?” he had a sexy growl and he was obviously putting the make on Antonia.

The other vamps who had come to see Angelus and the Slayer get a hint of how it is going and they want no part and start to drift away. Angel bit his lip. If they go check the pen they were screwed.

She rubbed against him like a cat him heat enjoying her power over him. “I can have you anytime.” She turned back to Buffy and scratched down her cheek cutting it with her nails. She smiled as she watched the blood well up. “But this is very, very rare! Look at the terror in her eyes! The great slayers scared of me, don't you love it!”

Rage flowed through Angelus. This is going bad and fast. “Antonia.” He stopped her and turned her to face him. “Listen I meant it... I don't give my slayers away. You know that!” he trust into her again trying to distract her from Buffy. “I don't want her over sensitized... I don't want a rabbit”

“I'm not going to kill her.” She rubbed back into him they were all but having sex with their touching and stroking. Buffy wanted to throw up. Antonia rubbed into his crotch while stroking his neck. “All right there is just one last thing... just one little thing, it’ll hardly hurt her, I swear. “ Her voice was soft purr as she bit his neck softly.

“Leave her alone.” He begged in a low growl. His face was becoming ridged and his eyes yellow. He obviously liked what she did and Buffy closed her eyes so not to have to watch her man court another woman.

“Why Angelus? Why this protecting the slayer from me? You haven't gone soft have you?” he ran his hands down her face trying to keep her away from Buffy. She ran her hands over the planes of his face and pressed up against him rubbing against hi hardness.

Angelus reached up and cursing himself for this plan, he ran his hand down her face in a seductive touch. This was going ways he hadn’t planned. He certainly hadn’t planned for Buffy to watch him seduce an old lover! “I worked for ages to bag this slayer. I plan to enjoy it for a while. You hurt your toys.”

“But so do you. And you haven't *really* hurt this one...” She looked up at him with narrow eyes. She knew there was something up, but couldn’t quite figure it out.

His head rolled back and his eyes turned yellow.  “Oh I have plans... I have all sorts of plans; plans which require her intact with an intact mind. But I wanted to come and see you first”

Antonia was loosing her grasp on the sensations Angelus was inciting. She pressed into him and licked his neck. “Hurt her for me?” Her hands were on his shirt as she ripped it open followed by her licking and sucking at his chest. His shirt was shredded.

Angelus’s stomach churned. He could feel the betrayal boiling in Buffy as she watched him all but make love to Antonia. Where once Antonia would set his blood to boiling, now she repelled him and it was Buffy he wanted. “Anything particular in mind Antonia?”

She leaned into him enjoying the sensation of his cool skin under her hands and mouth. She all but purred. “Hurt her, hurt her then fuck me. I want to taste her blood on my tongue as I come.”

Buffy laid on the rough hewn table in the dark lair watching a vampiress make it clear she waned to have Angel and he seemed that he was going along with it. A small whimper broke though her lips as she thought of him with her.

Antonia spun and in a moment grabbed Buffy by the hair, pulling her head back baring her throat as she bared her fangs, her vampire face sliding into place. She is mine Angelus! I claim her as leader’s right and you owe me!” She hissed as Buffy closed her eyes awaiting the inevitable bite to end her life.

Angel growled and pushed Antonia off of Buffy and attempted to stand between them. “I mean it Antonia. She is mine and I will not share her, I worked to hard to get her.

smashed her ribs in...out of the blue  I should have been able... I always was able to before... she just wouldn't back down... she always did before...

j  oh god....Angelus, this isn't your fault... you can't blame yourself.... After all hell hath no fury like a women scorned..

a-  I do... god I took  her in there wrapped like a present and may have got her killed! Antonia never forgave me for leaving when I got cursed without seeing her first...  She was pissed I left without....

j-  sighs this is Buffy she won't let this kill her, she'll get better just for you to play
doctor

a- I don't play doctor... you dint see her... they were hanging 4 units at one time... had
three IV on her and she was on a vent when she went to OR

 j-  you have to tell her mother and Willow....

 G Oh god Great lets explain to Mrs. summers her daughter got attacked by wolves in Romania

j-  Angel it's Buffy the strongest slayer. she's died before..

a-  That makes me feel good Does this mean there could be ANOTHER slayer?

j- she' won't let a lung wound kill her  three slayers i hope not..

 Angel slumps in a chair... [have Jenny try to comfort as Giles goes to call joyce]

J  sits by Angel, puts a hand on his arm...

a-  I look ed at her bleeding, realizing she could be dying...and I wanted to bring her across Jenny... and then have you guys give her soul...and I couldn't...  She would hate me  She would hate herself  I couldn't do that to her...

j-  Angelus.. I know how new these feelings are to you.....they're normal... and she
wouldn't hate you just for the record...

a-  I'm not supposed to feel like this... I am not supposed to care....  what the hell am I supposed to do with these feelings?

J  look s at him... yes you are....... it's called love, and every being and creature should
feel it..

a-  It hurts.......

j  you can ask Buffy to teach you about it when she gets out of here.. love hurts Angelus...it's a known fact..

a- she isn't going to ant me around... I was supposed to keep her safe...  I failed...

j-  you did, without you she would have been slaughtered.. or much worse..

a-  God and Antonia ripping into me with a lover's spat didn't help matters

j-  she wanted you in that room with the doctor didn't she???

a-  I was the only think she knew...

j  the only one she loved.. reach out feel her emotions now Angelus...

a-  She has none I can't feel her... she is unconscious in surgery

j-   what was the lovers spat???

a-  I feel like someone has ripped my heart out of my chest, That I had left when I was cursed without telling anyone or seeing anyone especially Antonia
 puts an arm around him somewhat nervously..  We had been... together... about 35 years maybe 40

j-  and she took  offense to it???

a-  wouldn't you take offense if the man you were living with for 40 years went out for
a snack and didn't come back for 80 years?  I am lucky she didn't rip my balls off
 I had forgotten about that fact...

j-  oh man.... no wonder she took  to Buffy...

a-  So she was pissed... and wanted the slayer as a prize and apology and got really pissed when I wouldn't share

j-  so she took it herself.. oh man... shakes head slowly..

a-  yeah... when I acted "unusual" she diverted my attention and smashed Buffy in the
ribs... she was a sitting duck and I put her there

j-  can I ask a strange question???

a-  yeah?

j-  does Angel blame you???

a-  Oh YEAH

j-  let me talk to him.. just for a minute... we'll switch back the minute Buffy's out of
surgery...

a-  you won't keep me locked away?

j-  no I swear the minute we hear something you'll be back in full control...

a-  sorry cheap question... maybe I should go away... I am a failure as a protector... closes his eyes...
 

j-  NO!!!!!  Angelus Buffy will want to see you the minute she come back..

a-  what about me?  Do I count for anything?

j-  blinks Angel???

a-  What the fuck was he thinking? Antonia was always a jealous bitch!

j-  Buffy will need to see Angelus because he was with her... she'll be more worried
about him then her..... you know that...

a-  Is he stupid? insane... she acted true to from...

j-  he had no way of knowing what would happen none of us did....  Buffy will be fine.... and so will you

a-  Oh bullshit. I could have predicted Antonia would rip him a new one... he left her
cold 80 years ago.  She killed a vampiress once, just because Angleus looked at her...

j-  and if it had been you and Buffy you'd both be dead, or you'd be watching while
they played with Buffy in front of you....

a-  is that supposed to make me feel better?  shakes his head...  takes out his wallet and hand her a card. It is a lawyer in Sunnydale

j-  look s at it... what's this for???

a-  if Buffy dies... talk to him... he will handle the affairs. he is my solicitor

j-  look s at him and nods understanding.. Will you want us to put your ashes in
with her? being very blunt..

a-  yes
 
 

j-  nods, all right she'd like that... but she'd hate being the cause of your death you
know that..  how'd she take it???

a-  She won't know... I doubt her final destination is the same as mine... understandably upset. Wants me to call when she is out of surgery... she is trying to reach her father to get the money to get here.

 a- you never know Angel.. I can picture her threatening to beat up people up there till
she gets you with her...

G come s up... I told Joyce she is calling Willow and Xander

 A hand G a credit card

g-  glances at it, gee wanna bring Willow over too??

 A smiles... Yes... so do I he walked away to be alone...

 G no just Joyce.

 G what was that about?

j-  sighs... poor Angel...

 G what that is Angel not Angleus?

j- I swapped them over to talk to Angel..

g- oh Angelus did that? wow

j- Angelus was too upset Angel is busy blaming Angelus....

g-  who was Buffy supposed to be threatening?

j-  I promised that the minute we can see her Angel would swap back..
 guys in heaven to get Angel up there with her...

g- what? let me guess if Buffy dies... he is going to suicide?

j- nods... I told him we'd ge with him and put the ashes ine with her..

g-  lets hope it won't come to that... I don't think he thinks he is going heaven does
he?

j-  no, he thinks he'll go straight to hell and no one can tell him different

g-  I wouldn't bee too quick to suicide if I thought that was my destination. I think he'll be put with Buffy somewhere better..

j-  why Giles for him life without her would be hell

 A doctor comes out Summers-Boyle?  Angel is at his side in a flash  DR#1 we removed the spleen, and stabilized the bleeding.  up.. goes over with Giles  I don't not know, but if she makes it through the night... she should survive

a-  can we see her??  or at least let one of us sit with her..

dr 1 you can go up to the ICU, the nurses are settling her in now... only the husband can
be at the bedside continuously...

j thanks, she grabs Angels arm  hold him back

a  turns to her... let me go!

J  swap...  put Angelus back in control now..

A  Please I just need to see her... then I'll swap...

J  you better if not I'll hold at bay with crosses and hold you at camp..

 Dr # I am not sure how well the baby will do with the surgery and the medicine...
we will have OBGYN evaluate her in the morning

 Angel turned around and stared... Wha?  chokes, baby????  that's impossible doctor....

 Dr look s at Angelus you didn't know she was 6 weeks pregnant?  Shakes his head ...no

A  oh my god.... we have to see her now...

 Dr Oh I am sorry. It showed up on the abdominal ultrasound...  j squeezes Angels hand in comfort  he is bleach white...

J  she can't have even known...  come on Angel, we'll go up and you can sit with her...

A  no... we thought she was off cycle because of the trip and excitement
 

 went to ICU... had to wait a bit... then they were let in... She is unconscious... on a vent with IV's and machinery  he stares at her...  gasps biting back tears at the sight of Buffy  dear god....

 *shes carrying my baby and I allowed this to happen to her*  touches her face gently  oh god...

 j sit down Angel... one of the doctors here is of my tribe we'll find away to sun proof
this area for you..  nods

 hours pass
 it is mid morning... the windows have been blocked for her husbands "sun allergy"
 b eyelids flutter slightly  Angel/us is dozing in the chair next to her bed  his hand is in hers  *oh god what happened.... where am I...*  squeezes his hand tightly,, blind panic setting in...  he is sleeping... head on the bed next to her hands  wakes startled
 *I can't remember...*

a-  Buffy? look s at her face  Buffy your OK your in the hospital  eyes fly to his..
 You had surgery  your OK  eyes widen...  you have a chest tube and are on a ventilator there is a tube in your mouth to your lungs and you can't speak

 *what's wrong with me I can't talk...*  tightens her hold on his hand..

a-  its OK.. the tube to the vent stops you from talking  I am here I never left you
 It's OK baby I love you strokes her face.

b-  blinks her eyes flying back open to look at him... panic subsiding but fear and
concern for him settle in..

a-  Your mom is on her way over  she feels the relief washing through him with her awakening...  he loves her...and he is happy  keeps a firm hold on his hand, thumb rubbing the back of it.. : there is a bit of pride... in his feeling and an underlying anxiety to it

 *mom coming what's wrong with me????? where's Giles..*
 
a-  Jenny and Giles went to bed... and your mom wanted to see you... you being
injured an all...  winces at some pain shutting her eyes for a minute feeling tired...
 forces them back open to watch him

a-  he puts the call bell on and the nurse brings her some pain medicine, he seems relaxed and happy she is OK...

b-  eye brow raising, trying to ask him what was wrong...

a-  you have a punctured lung and they had to take your spleen out...  holds her hand to his face... I almost lost you Buffy  shuts her eyes and the fight back in the cave flashes back to her..  opens them looking him over making sure he was all right..
 pain medicine send her into sleep
 

 later in the day..
 the pulmonary MD arranges for the vent to be weaned and eventually they pull the ET
tube  Angelus is sleeping with his head on the bed... he is really groggy it is around 3pm  wakes up and look s at him, Angel??? hoarse whisper very quiet..

 his head snaps up Buffy?

b-  licks her lips trying to wet them..  holds a hand up...

a-  Oh baby are you OK?  let me call the nurse

b-  never ......better  reaches out to him...

a-  do you remember what happened?  takes her hand and holds it to his face...

b-  not ....really bits.....and pieces..

 Angelus told her the whole story again... in detail up to the surgery  nods...
 
she feels the relief wash through him... and an underlying anxiety...  thinks for a moment.. Giles??

a-  they are still sleeping...

b-  nods.. mom...?

a-  the doctor say your going to be ok...and that is without knowing about your slayer
healing ability....

b-  nods.. Angelus????  she feels his anxiety skyrocket... he is horribly anxious about something....

a-  yes?

b-  not....your fault....  I didn't see it coming either....

a-  I should have protected you better.. I shouldn't have let her anywhere near you  guilt and shame...and the increasing anxiety... that wasn't it...

b-  look s at him... Angelus.. what is it...

a-  what is what?

 b- licks her lips again.. water???  gives her a sip of ice water  what is wrong... your feelings they confuse me.. you're upset....

a-  Buffy I am upset because I feel like an ass for not protecting you and you almost
died on me.....  I almost lost you

b-  shakes her head... not it....  cups his face....  he's angry... feeling betrayed
 not your fault.. I'd be dead if it wasn't for you..

a-  You would never have been endanger...  [he is he thinks HE is sterile remember? so who got her pregnant?]  Buffy I want you to heal... we can talk about this when your better...

b-  no now....  you're upset.... why??

 A doctor comes in... a woman doctor  excuse me I need to exam the patient alone... can you step outside?

 b- look s at doctor, my husband is all right to stay.. please...

 Angel nods and gets up. kisses her hand... I love you I'll be back

 Angelus... please...

d-  He can come in after I have examined you

 he steps out of the room with relief she can't pull it out of him...  is still slightly panicked,

b- please.... head falls back, small whimper..

 D It is OK... I need to talk to you alone.

b-  look s at her.. why.??

d-  Your injuries do not match the history your husband gave for their origin.

 oh??  trying to think.. a wolf attacked me...

d-  For one you are hosting a vampire bit on your neck... not a wolf bite. in fact you
have several vampire bites  your injuries and blow pattern are those of hand strikes

 small smiles yeah welll big wolves... nasty backhands.. forgot to duck.. I'll live... please what is this about...

d-  I need to ascertain that you are not in danger

 I am perfectly safe.. I'm flying back home soon..

d-  I am not stupid. This is in complete confidence..  1. You were attacked by vampires... not unusual in this area... being in the hospital and not the morgue... is however

 please I'm alive that should tell you I'm safe.... and in strict confidence.. you don't have to worry about the pack anymore...  the fact I'm alive means they're not...

d-  Your the Slayer aren't you?

 lays back... small smile... pleased to meet you...  yeah a very sore one but still the slayer..

d-  I find it unusual that a slayer has her own pet vampire...

 was there something else - I'm not really up fpr chit chat.. that pet saved my life.. and is my lover and consort

d-  and guard dog...

 shuts her eyes. that too, what is it doctor??

d-  He seemed quite surprised... so I am assuming you are too. Your 6 weeks
pregnant

 opens her eyes WHAT???????  jerk up.. then backs down sore.. it's not possible...

d-  I thought so. You are 6 weeks pregnant. It was found on abdominal ultrasound
 Are you sexually active?

 shakes head.. I cant be, vamps can't have children....

d-   You my dear are not a vampire and you are most definitely having a child

 eyes widen as she realizes his anger, oh god he thinks I cheated..  male vamps can't have kids...

d-  you fear him? does he hurt you?

 Angel??? small whimper knowing he'll hear..  no I don't fear him he's my other half

d-  well then I recommend you get a good OBGYN when you get back to the states.

 beginning to get slightly panicked and on edge..  Angel????

 Angel comes in, in response to her emotional state  head lays back tears trickling down her face...  Dr nods at him and leaves  what happened Buffy? What's wrong?
takes her hand holding it

b-  oh god.... oh god...  eye look s at him full of her pain and fear...

a-  do you need me to get the nurse to get you some pain meds?

b-  you knew and think I cheated... that where the anger came from... don't go... please...
terrified he'd leave her and not come back..

 Buffy... I can't have kids... I'm a vampire... I've been dead 245 years  the well is dry...

b-  tears turning into sobs.. I didn't..... I didn't cheat please Angel..... please.... getting hysterical..

 hold her tightly...  I believe you.... I believe you more than I believe I'm sterile... sshshshsshshshsh baby it's OK

 clings to him... Angel please I didn't I couldn't... still crying unable to clam now...
 don't leave me please..... please don't....

a- I know puts his head to hers and opens up his feeling to her... his love his feeling of appreciation... love respect pride  acceptance

 whimpering against him absolutely terrified..

a-  I am not going anywhere... I am right here...  Buffy even if you had... I wouldn't go anywhere..  I would have killed the son of a bitch who dared to touch you and used his
intestines as garters... but I wouldn't have left you

 lets herself bask in his emotions slowly calming down.. hands still holding him
tightly..  giving small painful hiccups as the tears slowed down..  I love you Angel...
 gives a small smile.. head nuzzling into him... need to get Giles....  aask him....

a-  your my woman and my consort... and I am not leaving  he is on his way

 Jenny and Giles come in the room  G are you OK Buffy? Alarmed at her tears.

b-  eyes widen Angel we have to... I can't have it like this...wedding.. still not thinking
straight to confused ad tired..

a-  whatever you want baby...

 Giles... moves away from Angel and holds her arms out to him...  G looked at her and hugs her  hugs him tight.... feeling the love for him she used to her father...
 thought I'd never see you again Giles...

 G is nervous... this isn't like her  tears starting again...

a-  me either... I was scared when we knew you were going to be OK... we had to go
get some sleep  she knows Giles.  G nods.

 small whimper escapes her... moves back to Angel... i cant get a hold on my
emotions Angel....

 A we need to know how?... I'm a vampire...and she's been faithful  arms reaching out to him...  he sits next to the bed, and hold her arm.  feeling scared and very vulnerable... unused to it.. seeking out her sole protector in Angel. J, just stays silent hurting inside seeing Buffy like this..  lays back, relaxing at his closeness..

 Vampires don't "secret' they don't make sperm. That is why their tears and sweat
are blood. The sperm in their testicles is the sperm that was in there the time their died... when it is ejaculated... it is not replaced. So theoretically a vampire is sterile... but only after tha sperm is gone

 A jaw drops.  tries to think, Angel had sex as vamp, must be gone....  well that explains it...
 
 Buffy... as a hunting vampire... I fucked but I culminated with either the feed if my
partner was vampire or the kill if they were human... not ejaculation... After I was cursed with my soul I did nothing... until you

b-  swallows... oh...

 so, from the night I died until the night I made love to you... I never ejaculated...

 b- shuts her eyes trying to think and stay awake,.. our first time??

 do the math... your midway between cycles right?

b-  nods eyes still shut..

 that is ovulation if I remember my rhythm method... you are carrying my child... amazement

 b- smiles sleepily, you're dream when can i go... hate hospitals...

 Joyce comes into the room... having just arrived  Buffy!  eyes open to make sure Angel was still there shut not seeing Joyce yet  jerks at the voce...

 Buffy baby Joyce comes closer

b-  eyes open and see her.. mom??? tiny voce

 oh baby I'm here....  holds out a hand to her...
 

 two weeks later
 Buffy has been released from the hospital and has gone home to the gypsy camp.  The gypsies are aflutter with the Slayer, her mother and best friends staying with them and the slayer coming home from the hospital

 Jenny is setting things up... they are going to do a hand fasting for Buffy and Angel as a surprise for Buffy :)  .Willow brought the celtic dress  Angel stayed with her at the hospital... much tot he gypsies relief...

 It is evening... and Buffy is coming home.. the handfasting will be the next night  Buffy wants to walk into he house but Angle insists on carrying her...  snuggles into his arms..  Angels you're impossible..  I'm fine now...  when she is inside she glances at the couch and there are Willow and Xander  Willow waves

 jaw drops... W Michael look ed at her...I'm not any more...they have me doing other things now WILL!!!!  hits Angel...  he puts her on the couch between the two of them.  Willow squeals and they starts babbling...

b-  holds on to him, telling him to stay..

 Jo-  Buffy you need you rest after about an hour of chatting....

 nods.. all right mom...  Angel picks her up and starts to take her upstairs...
 yawns.... Angel... will you come up?

 Jo remember Angel!

 A yes mam,

b-  snuggles into him... stay with me?

 I can't...

 b- why??

 nuzzles her Oh god I want to so bad...  pouts...  they won't let me
 I'm sleeping in the barn tonight...

b-  just sit with me till I fall asleep? : please...pouting..

 OK  we have a busy day tomorrow...

b- small smile thanks.. What are we doing tomorrow??

 they enter the bedroom and on the bed is the dress  we're getting married
 I should say handfasted

b-  sees it and gasp.. What, Angel!! Happy yell of joy..  snuggles into him and  covers his face with light kisses...  slipping out of hi arms picking up the dress... turns to face him, hands on his cheek.. I love you...

 I love you... pulls the covers back and lays her in the bed and snuggles her in, lays next to her on top of the covers  snuggles into his side.

B head on his shoulder..  turns to face him, hands on his cheek.. I love you...

 I love you...  I figure we can be handfasted... that is why I brought over Willow and Xander...  He smiles at her... -I can't believe you are going to have my baby...

 b- leaned head on his shoulder, what's the difference between handfasting and
marriage?

 nothing...  handfasting is a pagan marriage...  just as legal as a "marriage" but less... painful for me...

b- smiles broadly and kisses his cheek... I never though of that.. this is wonderful

 a Christian marriage includes blessings... and catholic ones include communion...
all which would be very painful if not out right dangerous to me...

 b- hand idly stroking his chest. This is some much better.. I love it..

 Choir boy researched his options very much... when he met you...  Hell the damned Gypsies cursed me with my soul... they might as well marry me to you...

 b- chuckles.. you ever going to stop calling him that??  small giggle he must be so sick of it..

 But to have them do it.. they are going to observe all the old rules... damn their
eyes... and we cannot be together from no until we are bonded  I get to sleep in the barn - frowns  I am not even allowed to see you... or talk to you...

b-  sighs... one night right.. only one.. the first night back and i can't stay with you.. I
need you here

 I know baby but they are emphatic...  pain in the ass really

b-  frowning.. Hasn't been away from him since she was hurt still a little shaky.. Can't
you do something??

 if I refuse they won't handfast us... I had to give my word I would not "defile" you tonight....

b-  sighs.. one night.. OK I'm being silly.. snuggles against him...small smile we can
look forward to the wedding night though

 oh yeah.... our wedding night as bonded...handfasted...married

b-  getting very sleepy still easily tired... hope I'm up to it.. Be the best ever....
 she can feel his arousal building... he is really getting off on "possessing" her
 rest... I will stay until the old bitch throws me out.... strokes her gently relaxing her asleep  smiles at his feelings.... Angelus??? hon

 yeas?

b-  small voice very sleepy.. no orders tomorrow night please...  eyes shutting snuggled up to him

 yes love you are not a slave tomorrow night you will be my wife  he holds her gently as she sleeps  about a half our later the old gypsy woman opens the door and signals to him and he frowns and crawls off the bed quietly as to not disturb her and leaves

 next morning
 Two Gypsy girls come in and sign for Buffy to ome with them  gets up and follows
 they lead her to a bathroom and they sign for her to shower and wash her hair
 does as instructed enjoying the water on her..  smiles at the girls
 when she is finished bathing and washed her hair they got about drying it  enjoys the attention.. smiling as she remembers the pampering she had in la  very similar to la without the eroticism

 Girl #1 [we need to name her] look s at her... I can't believe you are actually going
to marry Angelus?

 relaxes under their touch.. Believe it.. I am he and I are in love

 #2 Wow... He is like so much the dangerous one...  they are braiding her hair in a very intricate braids after it was dry placing little pearls and beads and flowers in her hair

 sly smile, I like my men dangerous..  how long before it takes place??

 #1 shudder. It was my Grandmother he killed

 smiles fades... I'm sorry I didn't know..  he's not the same man that killed her though.. He's changed.. I only hope you can remember that

 #1 But that was before he got his soul... I understand he serves you now?

 nods yes.. but only me...

 # 2 wow... whispers... is he good in bed? The stories say vampires are good in
bed...

 # hits her...

 smiles.. he's wonderful the stories are all true

 #2 oh wow... but they say they bite you at the end... does he bite you?

 sighs.. beginning the feel her nerves pick up a bit..  yes.. but only lightly...

 They are nearly finished with her hair... #2 that is so intense...

 and often only after I bite him first.. small chuckle  they girls laugh...
 they turn her to the mirror and she sees what they have done...  gasps as she look s at herself.. it's beautiful..  She is gorgeous with bead and pearls and flowers in her hair...

 we want you to look you best for your handfasting...

 smiles.. thank you.. you did a great job...

 this is our gift to you they smile

 Now we need to go to the old woman for lessons on proper care of your man...
they giggled

 thank you... I'm honored  small laugh good luck.. He'll be testy today

 they give her a dress to where... and lead her to the old woman

 there is a old woman in a room... and the girls come in and she is given a chair
and sits with her...  lessons on look ing after Angelus.. this will be a laugh, under her breathe  smiles at the lady, head bowed in respect

 The "lessons" were long and obviously a traditional thing teaching a girl with no
idea how to have sex... or relations with a man deal with a man... Buffy was basically bored to tears...but respects their attempts to involve her in traditions...

 after several hours the girls came and collected her and led her away to the
bedrooms where her dress is laid out...  nerves really building up now at what was to come..

 #1 smiles at her. Wasn't that the most boring lecture in your life? giggles

 #2 show some respect. Giles too

 smiles at her.. yeah didn't have the heart to tell her I knew it all  but it's nice

 Yeah but many of the women of the tribe don't know anything... and it is
infromative for them

 nods.. I liked it.. made me feel like I belong...  they help her out of the dress and help her put on the under things and the dress.

 #1 this is a gorgeous dress...

 smiles.. Angel had it made for me...

 #2 he had it made for you... wow

 it's an Irish wedding gown...

 Oh he is Irish?

 yes...

 oh...

 you didn't know??

 they apply her makeup for her... she look s gorgeous when they are done

 No... Not much was known of Angleus... before the cursing... he lead the
vampires...  quite mean and vicious

 is smiling- partly to hide her nervous feeling..  yes he was.. but he's kind and caring now..

 wow... but I have the feeling he could easily be rough if he needs to be

 nods. yes he can... but only when he has to, and he's always under control...

 Well now we wait until we are called for... it shouldn't bee too long...

 Are you nervous?  I am and I am not the one being handfasted!

 nods.. feeling very nervous.. i'm terrified..

 Are you doing it for a year and a day, until death do you part or as long as love
lasts?

 frowns at the term.. till death parts us  we're in it forver
 oh that is so romantic...

 sighs.. yeah it is...

 knock on the door and Joyce comes in...

 smiles at her.. MOM!!

 J Oh Buffy you are absolutely gorgeous!

 stands up and hugs her..

 sits down next to Buffy...

 it's amazing.. I'm terrified..

 J this wasn't how I pictured your wedding... are you happy with it?

 I'm fine.. I'm loving this scared silly but happy... have you seen Angel today?  babbling with her nerves..

 The women have been cooking all day... they have made it into almost a festival of
sorts...  not everyday the slayer marries the opposition...  Gypsies have been showing up all day

 they should sell tickets. small chuckle..  is Giles standing by Angel???

 Some Watchers showed up and dragged Giles away... he didn't look happy

 what????? anger running through her... I need him here.... where did they go with Giles???

 I don't know... no one will discuss the ritual or the procedure...   Giles is sitting down in the living room Buffy he is OK

 frowns they told him off because of me didn't they???

 I think he got his butt chewed for letting his slayer marry a vampire...

 sighs. sad look on her face.. it's not fair.. I'm causing so much trouble to everyone
by doing this...

 I haven't seen Angel at all the young men have scurried away with him in the
barn... that is where the marriage will take place... keep Angel out of the sun I belive

 smiles.. never though I'd get married in a barn.. When will it happen??

 I have no idea... it is early afternoon  maybe 1 or 2 now...  I know they don't plan to wait for sunset...

 nobody knows... small groan.. I'm terrified, he's probably loving these feelings coming from me....  small chuckle

 the girls had gotten themselves done up in their finery while Buffy and Joyce
talked

 you two can really feel one another?

 yeah.. if I focus I can feel what he's feeling right now..  and he can feel me..

 what is he feeling?.

 Angelus in feeling frustrated... he misses Buffy and is impatient has a strong urge to rip the throat out of whatever little twit they have saddled him with but is sitting on that urge... he is very hungry they've forgotten to feed him

 smiles same as always he's impatient for this to happen and he misses me.. Ignores
his nasty urge  sends him a wave of her love.. and nerves...  send her love and an increasing sex drive ...

 frowns.. they could have done that.. turns to one of the girls can you get some one
to take him some blood??

 what? they look at her confused

 smiles.. his love soothing her a bit..  they didn't feed Angelus..  their eyes go wide
 a hungry vamp. is a grumpy vamp..

 #2 he's hungry? voice terrified

 he'll be OK.. get Giles to do it..  #1 nods and goes in search or Giles  not for humans..
 

 the girls chat for awhile after she comes back from talking to Giles...  sends Angelus a feeling.. of slight impatience with peoples..  he's done it??

 Feels the bloodlust come over him and is sated... with a slight hint of not enough not right...not human... has to do

 Girls smiled... -the watcher already had blood for him
 never mind he did it... sends him a small admonishing feeling..  trust Giles to think of everything..  wicked chuckle feeling

 knock on the door and a woman is there to lead Buffy  she leads the down the stairs and outside and into the barn  the barn has been transfromed all the animals and everything is out of the barn  garlands drap the barn... candles light the barn and turn it into a wonderland
 instantly feels absolutely terrified
 
 
 the gypsies are clustered in the barn with a path to the center ... she is signed to
walk the path  look s round the barn in amazement.. trying to control her nerves which are overwhelming her..

 calm feeling of security come from Angel she sees the path leads to Angel standing before a woman in a long robe  takes a deep breathe and follows the path focusing on the feelings coming from him eyes only on him..

 he is amazed at how beautiful she look s... and is so proud to be marrying her...  can't believe she really wants him...

 stops at his side.. Gives him a small nervous smile.. eyes look ing him up and
down...  falling in love with him all over again...

 the woman look s at Buffy. -Are you here of you own free will?

 nods. yes

 look s at Angel. Are you here of your own free will?  He nods- yes

 She says a long announcement to the gypsies in Romanian and they all look happy
and nod and clap  glances at Angel, smiling at him slightly.. her nerves firmly clamped down on

 We are here to handfast these two... most unlikely couple the gods have ever seen.
The Vampire Slayer and the Vampire Angleus.  * Romeo and Juliet eat your heart out* swallows a chuckle at the thought that jumped into he mind..

 You have a choice. You can marry for a year and a day.... you can marry for as
long as love shall last... or you can marry until death do you part. -look s at Angel- which do you marry for?

 A Until death do us part.

 swallows letting herself just bathe in the feeling of their love..

 the woman look s at Buffy... - is this your wish?

 nods.. yes It is my wish..

 She look s at Buffy and smiles.  smiles back..

 Takes Buffy's hand and Angelus hand. -normally we would do cleansing and
blessings of the couple... but that may not be appropriate for Angelus  So we will hand fast you...-smiles  nodding their hands together she ties them with a length of cord
 swallows a small giggle but sends it in Angel's direction at the thought of him
blessed  she felt his response... the thought made his skin crawl  look s at the cord and squeezes his hand softly...

 W- With this cord I tie the hands together in symbol of their togetherness until
death do you part.  Parted and never parted, touching and never touched together until the Gods see fit  to separate you

 feels all her nerves flood back at the realization of what they are involved in now..
 together you face the world  together you experience the joys and sorrows of life.
 smiles thinking of what they'd already faced  together you reap and pay the fines of life  and feeling that only good could come..  together you face the life and its unknown until the veil separates you

 look s at Buffy.  look s back....  You have chosen one whom many have cried and called pariah.  Your way could be beautiful and it could be hard... with love and losses.  nods very slightly...  Your way will not be easy... for either of you
 I can feel there is a bonding between you, beyond anything I could make...  You are already handfasted in you souls... this just shows the community it is such

 small smile... hand tightly squeezing Angelus's  Angelus... you have preyed on mankind for generations... and now you bond to the protector of mankind  Protect her... love her. and keep her from the evil of the dark you once knew so well.

 look s at Buffy- you embrace what was once our deepest nightmare... love him and
keep him safe in the light.  lifts their hands and look s out to the gathering...
 gives a small blast of love over to him... knowing how well he already did as he
was asked..  then followed it by a wave of arousal at the thought of the upcoming night..

 Here, I present the couple... let us dance and feast and make merry in joy of the
Celebration of their bonding and the proof that love can save anyone!  they all cheer and all hell brakes loose people hugging and kissing Buffy and clustering around and pushing and shoving  look s over at him... feeling small tears of joy froming in her eyes

 music starts to play and some start to dance...  he pulls her to him and kisses her deeply  hugs her... "now your mine...."  kisses him back  people are breaki9ng out the food  snuggling into his arms.. always yours...

 the woman brings them a plate  one plate  leads them to a table and makes them sit  for the night until you consummate the marriage you will be tied. you will need to assit each other... and feed one another  nods at the lady... understanding her words...
 and show in action what your life will be like ... neither can accomplish alone,,,
but through each other  puts on large glass on the table with the plate...  walks away...

 look s back at Angelus.. then at their joined hands... fully realizing what they were
about to do..  Angel picks up the glass and holds it for herr to drink  sips at the drink..  it's mead...  he smiles at her... it's mead... traditional; wedding drink

 pulls back and reaches out for the glass to hold it for him.. Then you should drink
too...  drinks after her... smiles at her and picks up a piece of fruit and pops it in her
mouth  kisses his finger before eating the fruit..  then kisses her and plays with the piece of fruit in her mouth  whimpers softly... he chuckles as she melts against him...

 I can smell you need of me- whispers in her ear

 free hand cups his cheek.. I've been like this all day...  head resting on his shoulder..

 he brings her hand that is tied to his into his lap and in contact with his erection
 A me too  look s up.. at him.. rubs him softly...  groaned

 I need to talk to Giles before we go up... the watchers spoke to him..
 
 nods I know...

 picks up some fruit and offers it to him..  they feed each other the plates contents

 Giles comes up -congratulations....

 smiles at him..  thanks Giles... it means a  lot that you're here for this..

 where else would I be but at my Slayer's wedding? he smiles

 frowns slightly... Giles are you in trouble for this??

 Don't worry about it Buffy... I can take care of it...

 Giles.. please don't hide things from me...

 she feels Angel's nerves about it he is really nervous

 thinks for a moment.. distracted by Angel.. free hand rubs his leg..

 Giles look s at her. Buffy I got read the riot act... it was expected. I knew it would
happen

 Giles please...they're not punishing you are they???

 how could they punish me?  Do you think they fell you would allow it for one minute?

 smiles.. i thought they may have been stupi enough to try...

 as long as I am your watcher... there is nothing they can do to me

 I thought they may have tried to take you away from me...

 And Angelus made it clear to them that you would not tolerate my replacement.

 turns and look s at Angelus for a moment with thankful eyes...

 A- I was afraid they would retire you....

 G Not after you made clear what would happen if they did...

 A chuckles... -they still respect me for that stunt in 1789

 G yeah... yeah they do

 turns back to Giles.. resting her head on Angelus.. everyone seems to think I'm some
sort of nasty person...  1789?  raises an eyebrow do I want to know??

 I really don't think so... lets just say when he offered to repeat it for them if they
retired me... they left...

 look s at the two of them.. OK that's good enough for me... then look s at her
watcher.. am i getting a hug off you???  small smile...

 he hugs her tightly... congratulations Buffy

 hugs him back.. thanks Giles... it's means o much you approve...

 she feels an underlying tension in Angel he was upset about the watchers...  sends him a wave of her love to drown in...

 I always thought... a vampire who loves a slayer.. poetic in a maudlin sort of way  Angel and Giles both snicker she realizes they shared something she didn't know

 chuckles relaxing back against her husband.. this one I am pulling out of you both..
tell

 Angel remember the invisible girl?  I approached Giles to help you... when I was trying to keep avoiding you  that was when I got him the Codex

 Giles nodded... the first time I really talked to him

 frowns you were the janitor???

 yeah, I stopped the gas leak... it isn't like I needed the oxygen

 smiles... reaches up and kisses his cheek.. thank you...  purrs in her ear...  gives a small yawn... still easily tired but ignoring it..

 Joyce comes up and hugs Buffy then Angel

 I can't believe it... my little girl is married  smiles at her mom.. snuggling into Angel..  look s at Angel... to you! frowns at him then burst out laughing

 yeah.. you think it's a shock to you.. I'm still getting used to it...  she feels his confusion  easy she's accepting you and kidding, small whisper into his ear Angel nods at Joyce

 Willow and Xander come up and they both hug Buffy Willow hugs Angel and
Xander shakes his hand
.
 smalls at Xander, thanks for being here xander..

 A- Buffy is tired. I am taking her upstairs to rest.  We will come down later... but she needs to rest now... he feels her exhaustion  smiles.. bushing at the fact that he caught what she was hiding..  he picks her up and carries her into the house and up the stairs  and into the bedroom  lays her on the bed

 A I am going to peel you out of that dress and I am going to lay aside you and you
are going to go to sleep...  We will consummate our handfasting when you awaken refreshed...

 lays back on the bed... sleeping on the wedding night.. and how will you undress

 pulls up her dress and buries his face between her legs and licks her  gasps... Angel!!!!

 smelling her arousal pulls her panties off and licks her with his tongue  growls... you are so good smelling.

 Angel!!!!!! whimpers... thrusting up to him...  rubs his face between her legs
 this is not sleeping.. small groan

 no it is not...  sucks on her clit  thrust his tongue inside  whimpering... hand clenching on the bedding..  sucks hard on her clit  can't help it. is already on the brink of orgasm...  shakes his head "no" rubbing her clit with his face and rubbing her over the edge  whimpering his name again and again..

 screams... hips bucking wildly..  d4rinks her juices as she comes on his face...
 Angel!!!!! head comes off the pillow and sinks back down... small whimpers still
escaping.  licks her gently and with slow gentle licks calming her down

 pulls away and lays beside her.  unties their hands... with a smile...  whimpers softly... slowly relaxing.. snuggles into him..  flexes his hand... big wow...
 
 I claim you as mine and you are going to take you medicine and sleep baby  look s at him... but you never....

 no but by the technical rules I have entered you... and you accepted ...  now sleep baby...  I will deal with you later...

 smiles yes sir.. eyes shut  he lays with her while she sleeps after she took her pain med

Part4
 
 Angel wakes Buffy up with licking her core... gently as she sleeps  he strokes her gently and nibbles at her as she awakens to his administrations  moaned softly.. stirring  slid his tongue into her and then sucked on the outer lips  opens her eyes sleepily and smiles down at him before crying out softly  Angel!!

 sucks on her clit and rubs back and forth  her hips thrust up to meet him... whimpering softly..  Angel please...  hands clasp on the bedding.. gasping for breath
 purrs heavily as he licks her into submission  listens to his voice before feeling herself about to break... please oh god...

 licks up her body... abdomen, breast. neck mouth as he slides into her core  filling her  hands come up and wrap around him... holding him tight.. gasping  growls in her ear... -now your mine... forever...  gasps at the fullness feeling like this was where she belonged

 always yours.. forever not matter what... small whisper..  slowly starts to slide in and out... long slow strokes  hands hold his shoulders.. staring into his eyes as she begins to meet his strokes..  she watches as his eyes change... he is both Angel and Angelus... they are both there making love to her...

 gasps. keeps the eye contact meeting his slow thrusts... small whimper Angel...us
 he thrust into her and strokes her possessively  thrusts back hard.. hands sliding down and cupping his butt  still watching him.... not far from the edge...
 nuzzles her hair... and sucks on her ear... low purr all the time with her

 bites his neck softly.. kee[ing the skin between her teeth holding it..  growls... thrust harder holds her tightly enveloping her hard  keeps hold of his neck meeting him thrust for thrust feeling her orgasm close..

 he is close she can feel the ridges against her skin as he changes  bite down hard on him as she comes.. then released him to give a low scream  nails racking down his back breaking the skin..  sinks his fangs in and comes deep within her as he pumps her full of his juices and comes into her hard.

 he held her tightly and he licked her neck and they both calmed from the orgasm  A your mine now... strokes her and pulls her tightly still inside of her... they feel as one...
 whimpered softly.. snuggling against him.. always have been yours.... rubs against him,, slightly sore but ignoring it..  you got impatient Huh??

 oh baby I am sorry your still hurting...  a smiles yeah it's been forever...

 smiles... it's not that bad... but this makes it all better.. kisses his shoulder

 I can't get enough of you

 mmmmm I wanted you with me all day.. last night I woke up and you weren't
there..  it was so empty without you there with me your very presence

 I wanted to be... they sealed the house against me -growls

 snuggles into him.. they knew you'd sneak in

 yeah....  I couldn't get past the door -growls in frustration

 should have knocked on the window... would have invited you...

 no you were sleeping so soundly....

 rubs his cheek to soothe him softly you tried it Huh??

 yeah... so I went out with Dom and got drunk...

 was wondering where he was... didn't see him today..

 he wasn't going to push his luck and try to hang around gypsies in the daylight...  I had to be in the barn by dawn... : I slept in the hayloft most of the day...

 hope we see him before we go.. think he'll show in Sunnydale??
 
 I don't know
 rubs his shoulder absently..  beginning to feel his weight on her
 Angel.. can you ease up a little.. small smile  rolls over not leaving inside her body but now he isn't on her  rolls so she  ''s on him.. head on his chest

 god you feel so good... so warm... hot....

 kisses his shoulder... can't believe we're married..  you feel huge.. Filling me completely  and so hard and cold.. it's wonderful.. like you're branding me as yours..

 you are mine and i have branded you... licks her neck bite  well we had better show up to our hand fasting party... although they seem to have fun without us...

 we have to get up.. small groan then sighs.. right I was tired right..

 take your pain meds honey

 slowly pulls herself off Angel.. sighing as he left her.. nods at his words.. yeah
meds.. where are they??  he gets her meds...and hands them to her with the water
 grimaces and swallows.. then slowly puts her under clothes on before picking up
her dress  he helps her dress and get presentable  he takes the binding and places it on the beuru

can't resist putting a hand on her stomach resting it there..  smirks at her.
 A you know what it meant them when we show up without the binding don't
you?

 blushes they'll all know that we made love... small whisper

 kisses her... and smiles and the bite is really obvious... -deep possessive voice

 puts her arms around him... they will know I belong to you... proud voice

 we have completed the rite of handfasting now...

 i don't want to share you with them... even for a minute...

 Buffy they have given us a handfasting... and they have opened their homes to us...
we should at least be polite...

 smile.. I know I just like this... lets do it.. just stay with me all night.. help me get
through this..

 I will be with you... at least their thought the new couple shouldn't be separated...
kisses her

 kisses him back... did you get a lecture about the birds and the bees too??

 no I told the old man I taught it to his grandmother...

 Angelus!!!!! Hits him on the arm

 laughed and kisses her... I lied to him though... it was his mother... laughed at her as she bats at him

 hits him harder... you're impossible... and I told them I can control you.. shakes
her head laughing..

 You can control me... but history is history

 just be nice tonight... just focus on something that will keep you in a good mood..

 you want to take me back on a leash? gleam in his eye

 smiles.. only if you ask nicely..

 well I thought it would be funny for your claims to control me... kisses her

 .. else you can think of what you're going to do to me and what I'll do to you when
we get back up her  turns and reluctantly heads for the door

 slinks after her with a low growl -unfair now I have to go into a crowd with a
hardon...

 chuckles.. not my fault you have no control..  tosses her head and walked down the stairs..  growls low in his throat as he walks after her
 
 

 they arrive outside... it is now full dark and there is dancing and eating and
drinking  stops and holds out a hand to him...

 you sure we can't just hide... small smile... slightly nervous at everyone knowing
what they'd done..

 some of the gypsies are there and the party and never got to see the couple... and
so Buffy and Angel pretty well left alone

 he stays close to her... and is attentive to her... gets her some dinner and a glass of
wine

 snuggles into his side.... thinking.. I'm going to have to move out of home aren't I??
 drinks the wine watching the people around her.. watching the party in their honor..

 we can worry about living arrangements in Sunnydale...

 nods. small smile sorry my mind was wondering... this is incredible..  so much has happened so quickly..  Dom walks up to them and toast them with a glass  A hi Dom how long have you been here?

 D- since sundown... lovely party... where have you been?

 A she needed to rest...

 D look s at their hands... obviously untied... and smiles... -yeah rest

 Willow comes up and hugs Buffy

 smiles up at dom.. hey dom.. we rested for a little while anyway..  smiles and hugs her best friend.. hey will

 W- I am so glad your OK this is so neato

 D look s at Willow then at Angelus who shakes his head -no  D shrugs

 yeah, it's incredible.. can't believe it's real and not a dream...

 W the gypsies are really into this party... I think they like the excuse to party

 see's the exchange and raises an eyebrow at them, then frowns

 D -they do that bet 90 percent couldn't pick you two out of the crowd

 yeah.. they do.. like vamps any excuse for a party  hmmm so no one would have missed us then?

 A seeing we decimated the local population for the party the entire vamp
population is standing right here

 smiles sadly yeah I guess so..

 No they were look ing for you... they missed you... you watcher said you had
needed rest from clearing out the catacombs...  A Yeah Antonia really hurt her...

 let's not talk about death or slaying tonight... please guys..  D nods to Buffy in agreement...  pleads at Angel with her eyes...

 A kisses her hand... as milady wishes

 b smiles thanks Angel.

 w, look s at Dom, you're a vampire too??

 Jenny and Giles walk up

 D look s at Will confusion in his eyes and look s at Angelus who nods... - yes

 yw you're like Angel, with a curse too? Curious as ever and strAngely attracted to
him..

 A Willow is Buffy's best friend and I consider her friend..... she knows most..

 Dom no no curse... I just never completely lost my soul from the start

 b smiles knowing.. rubs against agel happily..

 w frowns, that must be hard...

 D it is.... but I deal

 Jenny and Giles interrupt... Hi wanted to say it was a lovely handfasting.

 G G would you two be willing to come over and talk to the Watcher for me? -eyes
pleading...

 A nods and look s at Buffy -I am willing

 b look s at Giles.. are they still angry??

 G they are concerned...

 b is ready to lay into them if they dare ruin her day

 b concerned they've sent me out to die numerous times and they are concerned
about this...???

 A whispers... tread lightly Baby... they hold a lot of power over Giles and can make
his life very difficult... they have a right to be concerned...

 b frowns,, yeah but I hold my own power, they touch Giles they deal with me...
whispered back..  b besides it's my wedding day.. how can they want to ruin it??? Chews her lip

 they all walk over to where there are two men standing aside ... they watched Buffy
and Angelus walk up, Angel stand two steps behind Buffy in obvious sign of submission to her  whispers in her ear... please Buffy... be cool.  swallows head turning slightly to him, small nod.. hand sneaks back and takes his..

 look s at the watchers.. I take it you're here to offer you congrats to me?? small
smile

 The tall blonde man shakes her hand. -I apologize for interrupting your handfasting but I needed to make some things clear.  look s at Angelus...

 A I will be right back I am going to get that drink you wanted...  A disappears into the crowd  she feels love and support from him...

 Blonde man look s at her... Are you being anyway influenced or forced by Angleus
into this marriage?

 sighs and look s at him, no I am not being forced into this...  you really think I'd let anyone do that??

 G is look ing sheepish... she can see "please don't fuck with him" written all over
his face

 No id didn't think you would "let' but Angleus has quite a history of manipulation

 sighs trying to get control on her feelings.. Angel and I are in love.. you must know
about his curse.

 We have 150 year history of him... and it doesn't match the current diary reports
from your watcher  We learned of it from your watcher... and researched it since

 he's not evil, and I can control both Angel and his demon, we are bonded, together
for all time...

 You are bonded with him of your own free will and you are marrying him of your
own free will?

 sends simmering anger to Angel at these two people

 Your Watcher condoned this behavior?

 yes i am.. you going to fire me for that??

 NO.

 smiles, my watcher was very against the whole thing actually he only gave into it because there was no way he could stop it..

 We just have to be sure that you are not being grossly unduly influenced by
Angleus in a way to make you ineffective or dangerous.  look s pleased with that.
 Angelus walked up and hands her a glass of wine

 A so Watcher. Are you satisfied that she is in this relationship of her own free
will?

 sends a smile to Giles, takes the wine.. now are you convinced??

 Shruggs... so far so good

 snuggles into Angel, sick of all the opposition to her happiness  why can't you people leave me alone?? I go out to die for you every day and you can't let me be happy for a day???

 A steps in close to the watcher... in a low voice " You know she is innocent and
she is loving and she is married and boded to me of her own free will. Her Watcher is important to her, and he opposed us from the start. If you retire or remove him from her... I will make 1789 look like a mild irritation. Do I make myself clear? You mess with the Slayer you mess with Angleus and I *will* redefine hell for you"

 she watches as the reference to 1789 make them look totally ill...

 G I don't think that will be necessary Angelus

 smiles...

 A look s at Giles and pointed backs down in response to Giles censure... showing
his influence over him to the watchers

 sighs.. are you guys done yet??? tired look leaning against Angel  or are there some other reasons i can't be happy???

 The Watchers nod. Then in finding you are free of compliance... Please find this
weekend at the Estates for a minor Wedding gift from the Council hands the envelope to Buffy. Congratulations on you happy occurrence

 smiles thank you.. that me, and more than you know..

 I apologize for straining you on the day of your happiness..

 Watcher: but thing as just needed to be cleared. If we can be of any assitence...
Giles knows how to reach us...

 nods, weak smile.. thank you i understand..

 they leave and Giles visibly relaxes... he was incredibly under strain...

 Angel growls at them [they are out of ear shot]  A pompous assholes.

 G snorts.  sighs and just goes limp against Angel, trusting him to hold her
 A so do you think you are past "retirement?" Giles look s and nods

 why do people always do this, first they rty ruin my day now you two are hiding
things from me...  what did i miss??  he leads her over to a table and holds her in his lap

 G- Buffy... think about it a moment.

 relaxes against him, hard to think now, but OK

 G Watcher position ia as much a calling as being a Slayer... and is as involuntary
as being a slayer....

 ok.. so they were going to fire you because???

 Buffy if I had allowed you to become involved with Angelus against your will...
and incapacitated the current Slayer... the ramifications would be horrendous...

 but they know that then they were annoyed at the thought of you condoning it at
all...

 If I was found "dangerous" to the slayer and a failure at my job... I would be
retired. So another Watcher could be called

 be retired, thinks you'd have to die like me?

 G nods.

 freezes and feels horror full her, and a lot of anger almost ready to go after the
watchers..  you'd be killed for letting me be with Angel, small whisper....

 I can be removed and replaced... but for this sort of thing... it is retirement if I
incapacitated the slayer

 nods slowly, oh god... I could have been responsible for your death.. still full of
horror

 Buffy you would not be... I would be if I failed...  I know I didn't... but they needed to be sure... Retirement for the Watcher includes retirement for the incapacitated Slayer also

 shudders, and goes closer to Angel, why didn't you tell me..  they would have tried to kill me?? raises an eyebrow

 Because it would do no good.  Buffy. trust me... the Watchers know how to kill a Slayer... it has had to happen in the past...

 I think I want to catch up with those watchers....

 G no Buffy. let it go... we are safe. They realize you two truly love one another,
and what I wrote in my reports is true about Angel

 Trust me... Angleus put the fear of god into them if they act rashly  A evil chuckle

 can we go have a training session with them.. small whimper.... my wedding day
and all people can do is talk about death or talk me out of it... shuts her eye.. why can't I just be happy, the best day of my life and that's all they can do...  a look s at Giles who leaves  holds her as she cries

 A I love you Buffy.  sobs against his chest  I think our wedding here and minor harassment is better than an attempt to marry on the Hellmouth... That would have been a nightmare

 I know i love you to, gives a small hiccup.. you're right I'm overreacting.. it's silly..
 wipes her eyes, look s at him...

  your also emotion because your pregnant... makes you weepy and tired... we are married and bonded for as long as you live.. you are carrying my child...
and we have a weekend at the Estates courtesy of the Council... they harassed us but I think this will make up fo it... you have no idea what the estates is do you?

 shakes her head small smile, n you're right what are they estates  leaned her head on his shoulder.. resting..

 the estates is a very expensive and posh resort in the English countryside... cost is
about 2 thousand a day to go  per person....

 raises an eyebrow wow...  hands rubs his chest, when are we going there??

 I dunno may in a few days when your more healed and can enjoy it better?

 England, hmm never been there.. should be nice... do we have the honeymoon
suite??

 Our own honeymoon at the courtesy of the council... they had to arrange it before
they came so they were just verifying what they thought was true...

 I think it will be startling

 smiles kisses his cheek, I can't wait...  small smile you going to ply doctor till then???

 oh yeah  kiss it and make it all better...

 chuckles... hmmm sounds good... my kind of doctor
 holds her close... I can't believe your carrying my child... I never thought I would ever be a father again... I thought I lost that back in 1753

 rubs her face against his chest like a cat... neither can I it's scary...

 I know but know a days women don't die like they used to in the old days...

 the thought of having kids, I never thought it would happen let alone so soon but
with you we'll be ok..  frowns may have to get Kendra up to take over the slaying later on though...

 Your still a child Buffy... what am I thinking? Your seventeen... this isn't the
1750's  I agree... I don't want you fighting while getting unwieldy... a pregnant slayer will be a sitting duck...

 snuggles against him, I'm older than my years Angel- I'm happy at having this child
our child, takes his hand and places it on her flat stomach

 I would love you even without the child... you know that?  oh god... he holds her close... she is so precious

 yes i do, but this child is a miracle Angel.. it's ours, still holding his hand to her..
 smiles.. Angel what do you want to call it... I was thinking of after your perents..
 rests against him enjoying the closeness...

 A shakes his head -no i can't do that...

 why???
 I want to wait till the baby is born...  Buffy I killed my entire family....  frowns, small shudder at the thought of her child being hurt... but that won't
happen again

 I couldn't bare to call my child by any of their names and remind myself of what I
did every time I call my child

 I couldn't stand the memories it would invoke... I'm sorry

 sighs and nods.. I understand.. it was just a thought, sorry  look s away fearing she'd hurt him...

 no it was a kind thought... but one I couldn't do... anymore than I could call it Colin
or Rebecca

 Colin??

 my son's name.

 settles back in his arms, I couldn't name it after your other children anyway, or
your wife...  it would remind me of your life as a human, without me.. sad smile..
 selfish I know but there it is,

 I know... but it is brining up memories.. the handfasting, the pregnancy...  Buffy... that was the past... a different time a different world.  I am here... with you... now
 i know.. just gets to me sometimes you know... you once said you were jealous of
Xander for seeing me in the sunlight...

 it's the same for me.. she saw you while you were human, in the sun in church..
everywhere.. small smile does that make sense

 yes it does.  She died for it too...  I killed her....

 rests against him, Angel.. you have to let go off that guilt one day.. please...

 Buffy I can't. if I let go... it I forget... If I don't remember how horrible it was...
then I risk doing it again...  It is how I keep the blood lust in line....

 you're so hard on yourself.. it's unfair.. you'll never do it again.. Angelus would
never do it again..

 Buffy you don't know how close I come at times...  I am a vampire. I have the blood lust.  Sometimes it is just one step... one thought away from total damnation

 thinks then share it with me.. we share emotions give some of that to me.. let me
help you.. please  look s into his eyes...

 not tonight Buffy... this is our marriage night... another time I will let you play with
the blood lust OK?

 nods.. soon. it's only fair..  kisses him lightly.. thank you  she feels his apprehension and fear... it really scares him.

 A suddenly to change the mood... dance with me?

 nods, seeing through his tactic.. we've never done that.. big smile  he pulls her over to the dance floor and they dance slow to a song playing...  everyone notices them... they are the classic loving couple...  snuggles close to him.. leaning her head on his chest.. people are look ing at us  hands wrapped round him tightly

 we are the wedding couple... and probably the most bizarre sight they will ever
see... the slayer dancing with her vampire husband

 this is nice..., head tips back to look at him.. my cradle robbing creature of the
night husband

 laughes...  The worls is all right and all is well... lets enjoy it...

 snuggles back to him.. i like that, my husband.. it's so right... so fitting

 wife.....  he look s her in the ey... mother.....

 swallows small smile father...

 shivers...  I want our wedding night to be somewhere else besides a house full of drunk gypsies...

 smiles look s and sees Willow dancing with dom, nudges Angel.. look

 so do I this was your idea to come out here again........ I hope he does they make a
good couple..  kisses his jaw.. i love you Angel boyle

 He would be good for her if she can break through his armour...  I love you Buffy Summers Boyle

 Angel needs friends smiles that's great will, if you ever have question ask me or
Angel.. small knowing smile

 smiles it's nice....

 Am I bad being attracted to Dom while I am seeing oz?

 no... this may be the real thing.. go for it..

 yawns and shuts her eyes again.. leaning back...

 But Buffy he is a vampire... I don't even know how old he is...

 ask him will, he'll tell you..

 Angel walks back anfd see her nods to Willow  A ask who what?

 Dom his age..  opens her eyes and smiles
 sits next to Buffy and picks her up and cuddles her on his lap comfortably snuggles into him, tired but not wanting too admit it

 I don't know lets see he was crossed over 1610  how old does that make him?

 W stares face flushed * how does he know that?*.

 can't help it bursts out laughing... Angel you're impossible...

 A chuckles as he walks away toward the vehicles  If she is going to be involved with Dom she is going to need to know

 are we going somewhere.. he'll tell her..

 Yeah we are getting away from her... somewhere private and where we can be
alone without a crowd watching us

 you know a place like that???

 puts her in a car and they drive into the nearest town
 

 he carries her in as if carrying her is the most common thing in the world... walks
up tot he desk  A is the honeymoon suite available? We have no reservation..
 blushes and hides her faces against him..  Clerk look s at them and smiles

 Hands him the key...  Clerk: any luggage?

 A no we forgot it... left it at the wedding... get it tomorrow

 Clerk smiles and he walks off lead by the bell boy

 keeps her face hidden, small whimper..  feeling her arousal join her weariness,
 he carries her over the threshold and nods to the bell boy who smiles and
leaves... he places her on the bed  frowns, Angel.. not spoil the mood did you bring my meds for later??  lays back ito the pillows sighing with pleasure... eyes shutting for a moment..

 yeah. their in my pocket  I want you to take two now... so I can make love to you without causing you pain...  gets up and gets a glass of water and hands her tow meds

 look s up at him yawns then blushes in embarrassment.. sorry  takes the pills and drinks the water laying back...  shut her eyes but opens hem and smiles at him... how you feel about slow and tender.. we never seem to make it..

 slow and tender... it is...  he strips off his clothes..  and lays down next to her

 smiles...turns to look at him...  hand cups his face.. I do love you husband of mine..
 moaned into her mouth as he kisses her slowly  slowly removes the dress exposing a piece at a time and kissing each expanse of skin as it become available  gasps and moaned head falling back onto the pillows..  licks and nips and sucks as he works across her body  the dress is on the floor and she is nude in his arms
 kisses her breasts, and strokes the arms

 whimpers rubbing against him, Angel... Ohhh you're going to kill me...

 no baby... I am going to pleasure you

 hmmm you are at that.. I'll die from pleasure. smiles..
