Summary: Angel and Willow's POV's on love

Okay, just so you know it goes like this. Angel than Willow then Angel again(although it should be kinda obvious.)

Thanks once more to Kylia for getting me to do something other than what I need to do.

Feedback is greatly appreciated as it makes me a happy person and makes me not do mean evil things to my fave couple.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Every endless night has a dawning day
Every darkest sky has a shining ray
And it shine on you baby can’t you see
You’re the only one who can shine for me

I live in the shadows of the night, always hiding from those around me.
Never truly belonging to any world. How many times have I wandered around
this town, remembering all the destruction and horror that it has seen and
not wanted to finally see the sunrise one last time. To feel the sun’s rays
before I turn to ash. But that was before you. Before I saw you, walking
so innocently, not even noticing the dangers that lurked in the darkness.

With your red hair you were like a beacon of light calling to me. You are everything that is good. You are the sun that shines brightly in the day. You light up a room with your shy little smile and your laugh. I’ve never had that in my life, no matter how many times I tried to find it. Not until you. And when I found you, I was already involved with someone else. But it was you that filled my every thought. It was you whom I followed to make sure that you got home safely. And it was you that allowed me to be the person I am today.

When your soul is tired and your heart is weak
Do you think of love as a one way street
Well it runs both ways open up your eyes
Can’t you see me here, how can you deny

I know how hard it must be for you, always fighting your demon for control of your body. I mean, your soul might be intake, but it still takes a lot of willpower not to give in to what is inside of you 24/7 and, yet, you are manage to. Sometime I wonder what would happen if you just let your demon loose. I mean, okay, so I’ve seen Angelus, but would you be as bad as him if you had your soul but still let your demon be in control. Or would you be a combination of Angel and Angelus. How you would have been if you had never become a vampire.

And, here you are, shutting yourself off from the
love that you have in you, afraid that it would never be returned. But it is. I love you with all my heart. Not that innocent kind of love that I had always had for Xander, but that full-blown, passion filled love between adults. Sometime, when I see you look at me with those chocolate eyes, I sweat that I see that same love in them before she takes your attention once more. Maybe one day, she will be unable to take it from me, though. Maybe you’ll be ready to let yourself go.

Every endless night has a dawning day
Every darkest sky has a shining ray
It takes a lot to laugh as your tears go by
But you can find me here till your tears run dry

I finally decided that I was going to go for what I wanted. I can’t hold it in anymore. I mean, I know that the two of you had been dating, but how serious is it really, and I guess I’m just afraid that if I don’t say something soon, it will be too late. Then again, for all I know, it’s already too late. I can see you laugh at something he just said to you, before turning to face the rest of us but then I catch your eye and see something there. Something I didn’t think I would ever see. Love. And it’s directed towards me. I swear I could feel my body heat up at that look and I realize right there and then that I need to tell you. I told them all that I was going to go out on patrol, catching your eye once more and you nodded your head, understanding what I was asking silently, a smile on your face. You are definitely the light that I need to guide me through the darkness of my life.

Its a private emotion that fills you tonight
And a silence falls between us
As the shadows fill the night
And wherever you may find it
Wherever it may lead
Let your private emotions come to me

Angel was waiting for Willow as she left the library. He watched her looking for him and smiled when he finally came out of the shadows.

"Angel, did you want to tell me something," she asked hopefully. He nodded at her. "What was it?"

"This," Angel reached over, drawing Willow towards him, placing a kiss on her lips that quickly turned extremely passionate. She wrapped her arms around him, drawing him closer to her, reveling in the feeling of his cold body against her warm one. She wove her fingers around the short spikes of his hair as she felt his hands run up and down her back. Finally she had to pull away, drawing in deep lungfulls of air.

"Wow," was all she was able to say.

"I’ve wanted to do that for a very long time," Angel told her.

"Then why didn’t you."

"I was always afraid of you rejecting me for what I am."

"What you are, is my friend. You are the man that has saved me more times than I can count. You are the person that has stolen my heart."

"It’s only fair."

"Why."

"Because you stole mine the first minute I saw you." A silence falls between the two would-be lovers as Angel tentatively reaches over, taking Willow’s hand into one of his own. "What now?"

"Let’s see where our emotions go from here."

"I like that plan." Angel and Willow kissed once more, discovering that sometimes their emotions were best to be shared.

The End
