Buffy woke up alone the next morning. It took her a few moments to remember she was at Angel's. She sat up slowly and looked around the room for him. "Angel?" she called softly.

She got out of bed and wandered around the apartment, looking for him. She found him in the kitchen making breakfast while Cordelia and Wesley sat around the table eating.

"Morning, Buffy." Cordelia grinned at her.

"Morning." She smiled at her and walked over to Angel.

"Hey," ha said giving her a soft kiss on the lips. "You hungry?" She nodded and he handed her a plate of eggs.

"Thanks." She took a seat at the table next to Wesley. "Hey, Wesley."

"Hello, B-Buffy," he stammered. "How are- Aren't you mad at me?"

"Mad at you?" Buffy asked confused.

"Because of what happened with Faith, and the stuff with the watcher's council?"

"Wesley, that was months ago." She reached over and patted him on the shoulder. "I am so over that. Beside I don't think anything could have prevented Faith what doing what--." A strange look came over Buffy's face.

"Buffy? Are you alright?" Angel asked.

"Excuse me," Buffy muttered as she got up from the table and ran to the bathroom to lose what she had just ate of her breakfast.

"Buffy!" Angel ran out after her.

"What was that all about?" Wesley asked watching them go.

"Oh, that's right I told you they were back together but I forgot to tell you Buffy's pregnant," Cordelia informed him. "It happened the day Angel was turned human."

"Well, I must say, I've never heard of such a thing happening before."

"That's probably because no Slayer has ever loved a vampire before," Cordelia said pushing her chair back and placing her empty plate in the sink.

At that moment Buffy and Angel walked back into the kitchen. "Sorry about that. It just hit me suddenly."

"No, problem Buff. Well, me and Wesley are going up to the office now. I'll yell if we have any calls." She pulled Wesley from his chair and to the elevator.

"Bye."

"Bye," they echoed.

"We didn't get to talk much last night," Buffy grabbed Angel's hand and pulled him towards the sofa. "What are we going to do?"

"I want you to come live here with me." Angel looked at her. "That is if you want to."

"Oh, I definitely want." Buffy leaned in for a soft kiss. "But what about school?"

"You could transfer to a collage near here," Angel suggested.

"Yeah, and Daddy said that if I decided to go to school here he would pay for it."

"Good, now that that's taken care of, how many people have you told?" He placed his hand on her belly.

"Willow. She's the only one that knows besides Cordy." Buffy laughed. I never had a chance to tell anyone else, Cordy drug me out of there so fast. She practically kidnapped me.

"Do you want me to go with you when you tell them?" Angel asked.

No, I think this is something I have to do on my own, but..." Buffy smiled mischievously.

"What?" Angel asked curiously.

"I'm sure it would help my story a lot if I could remember what happened. Maybe you could help me by showing me exactly what happened that day." She put her hand on his chest and pushed back onto the couch.

"I think you might be right," Angel agreed.

"Oh, I know I'm right." Buffy leaned down and her lips met his in a passionate kiss.

"So, Buff, what's with the emergency Scooby Gang get together?" Xander asked sitting on the foot of Willow's bed next to Anya.

It was a couple days later. Soon after having Cordelia bring her back to Sunnydale Buffy had the gang at her and Willow's dorm room.

"Well, there's no easy way to say this so I'm just going to say it." She looked at Willow who smiled and nodded reassuringly. "I'm pregnant."

"You're what!?" Xander exploded.

"I'm pregnant," Buffy repeated calmly.

"Do you know who the father is?" Anya asked.

"Of course I know who the father is! What do you think I'm some kind of slut?" Buffy snapped.

"Of course we don't Buffy." Giles assured her. "Who is the father?".

"Angel."

"Angel? How is that possible?" Xander asked, shocked.

"Yeah, isn't he a vamp?" Anya added.

"It's a long story so I'm only going to give you the Cliff Notes version," Buffy told them. "When I went to LA, Angel and I were attacked by a Morha demon. Angel's blood mixed with the demons and he became human. We spent the whole day together. We were so happy."

"I bet you were," Xander said knowingly.

Buffy glared at him. "Then Doyle had a vision about the demon. Angel went to fight it by himself and would have been killed if I hadn't shown up. After Angel went to the Oracle's and asked them to turn him back because he couldn't protect me anymore. The Oracle turned back the time and erased the day. Angel was the only one that remembered."

"Wow," Xander said. "How do you remember then?"

"Well I've had dreams. And Angel and Cordy filled me in on the rest." Buffy explained.

"Where is Angel?" Anya asked. "Shouldn't he be here with you?"

"He wanted to come but I told him I wanted to this myself."

"What are you guys going to do?" Willow asked.

"I'm moving to LA to live with him. He's coming down this weekend to help me with my things."

"What about school?" Giles asked.

"I'm going to transfer. I talked to daddy, he agreed to pay for it."

"Buffy, I'm sure about you moving in with him," Giles admitted. "What if something happens and he goes evil again?"

"No worries, Giles," she told him. "Angel's soul is permanent."

"How can you be sure?"

"Trust me. We're sure." Buffy smiled ans blushed, thinking about the last couple days.

"Um, Buffy, I hate to be the party pooper, but what does your mother think of all this?" Willow asked.

Buffy frowned. "She doesn't know yet. We're going to her together this weekend."

"You do know she's not gonna be happy," Xander reminded her.

"I know and I don't care. It's my life and I'm going to have Angel in it. If she can't except that then that's her problem." Buffy said. "I'm not a little girl anymore. She can't run my life."

"Well, then let me be the first to congratulate you." Giles stepped forward and hugged her. "I'm glad you happy. Nobody deserves it more then you and Angel."

"Thank you," Buffy whispered in his ear. "You have know idea how much that means to me, considering everything that's happened."

"We're all happy for you, Buffy," Willow added.

"We are?" Xander asked. Willow slapped him upside the head. "Oww! I was only joking. Of course I'm happy for her."

Buffy smiled and laughed. "I'm glad you guys took that so well. I was worried you would all hate me." Buffy pouted. "Now all I have to do is survive the week until Angel gets here."
