Angel to Buffy: go home!
from Sanctuary (Season 1)

BUFFY: You should have told me what was going on.

ANGEL: I didn't... I didn't think it was your business.

BUFFY: Not my business?

ANGEL: I needed more time with Faith. I'm not sure...

BUFFY: You needed... Do you have *any* idea what it was like for me to see you with her? That you went behind my back...

ANGEL: Buffy, this wasn't about you! This was about saving somebody's soul. That's what I do here, and you're not a part of it. That was your idea, remember? We stay away from each other.

BUFFY: I came here because you were in danger.

ANGEL: I'm in danger every day. You came because of Faith. You were looking for vengeance.

BUFFY: I have a right to it.

ANGEL: Not in my city.

BUFFY: I have someone in my life now. That I love. It's not what you and I had. It's very new. You know what makes it new? I trust him. I know him.

ANGEL: That's great. It's nice... you moved on. I can't. You found someone new. I'm not allowed to, remember? I see you again, it cuts me up inside and the person I share that with is me! You don't know me anymore, so don't come down here with your great new life and *expect* me to do things your way. Go home!

(she walks away, pauses)

BUFFY: See? Faith wins again.

ANGEL: (not looking at her) Go.

(Buffy goes. After a moment Angel slams his hands against the wall and sighs. )

WESLEY: You all right?

ANGEL: For a taciturn, shadowy guy... I got a big mouth.

WESLEY: Did you wanna go after her?

ANGEL: Yes. (doesn't move to go)

WESLEY: I don't know how much my opinion counts for, but I think you did the right thing.

ANGEL: Yelling at Buffy?

WESLEY: No. The other thing.

ANGEL: I didn't do it. Faith did.

WELSEY: I hope she's strong enough to make it. Peace is not an easy thing to find.

ANGEL: She has a chance.
