~Part: 1~
He walked slowly down the hospital hallway. As he passed the front desk he held his head down hoping to skip by unnoticed. After passing the desk, he headed for the elevator. He pressed the button for the elevator then waited. He looked back and could see the nurses sitting at the desk talking to each other, while others went from room to room checking on their patients. No one was aware of his presence.
The elevator finally signalled as it came to the last floor. The doors opened and two people walked out passed him and continued on their way. He walked into the elevator and pressed the button for the third floor. Just as the door began to close, a hand shot in and the door reopened and a young lady walked in.
"Could you press number four for me?" The young lady asked as she stood up against the wall.
"Of course," he spoke as he pressed the button for floor four.
The doors began to close again. He was glad no one else came.
As the door opened on the third floor he walked out and looked up both hallways before walking toward the room. As he continued to walk, he heard a voice come over the intercom, calling for doctor Hatton to pick up line three. He continued his journey unnoticed. He headed to the one room he had been visiting for the past week now. He didn't know why he continued to come to the hospital, visiting her every night, but for some reason he did.
Once he opened the door and looked upon the most beautiful woman in the world lying in the bed, he then knew why. He now knew why, but didn't like it. He closed the door and walked with caution across the white floor over to the bed. He had to sneak, because he didn't know when one of her friends would burst through that door. And if one of them did, he wanted them to believe that he was trying to `kill' her over anything else, but he knew he couldn't hurt one hair on her head.
He smiled, then frowned as he made it to the side of the bed and saw that she was still asleep. In one week she had improved some, but she still hadn't woken up. The tubes were out and she was breathing on her own, which was a good thing. The only thing he wanted now was for her to wake up.
While he stood over her, he began to think about when it all started. It was just to keep him occupied and once that was fulfilled, he was going to tell everyone and destroy the whole slayer gang, but that's not how it went. This woman changed his whole life and he had changed hers. He just didn't know how, or what, had happened to her.
He continued to stand over her and smiled, as she smiled a little in her sleep. He moved a strand of hair that was over her face. What surprised him the most, was that she seemed to smile again.
"My sweet Willow," he whispered as he looked down at her. "I promise to get whoever did this to you," he spoke as he moved the sheet back to see the gauze across her heart didn't have that much blood on it. He growled trying to get a hold of himself. Willow had the purest tasting blood he'd ever had.
He pulled the covers back up and was getting ready to leave, just as the hospital door opened.
"Get the hell away from her Angelus," Xander called out. "You're the one that did this to her in the first place.
"No, I am not, boy," Angelus defended himself, as he began to backup, as Xander walked in small circles towards Willow. Xander didn't know why Angelus was there, but he was sure that it wasn't a social call.
Xander reached into his pocket and pulled out a cross, thrusting it into Angelus' face making him growl. "What the hell are you doing in here? Trying to finish what you started?" Xander asked, hoping Buffy and the others would hurry.
"I am here because I heard what happened. I just wanted to make sure…," he stopped, letting his words hang before he spoke too fast.
"Yeah, you want to make sure you finished what you started," Xander spoke as he continued to hold the cross in Angelus' path.
Once they had made a complete circle and now the door was to Angelus' back, he looked at his lover then back to the Xander.
"She looks so innocent, so sweet and pure," He growled out as he grabbed the knob of the door and opened it before Xander had a chance to react.
~Part: 2~
Xander finally relaxed when he walked to the door and looked out to see that Angelus was gone.
He took a deep breath, then proceded back over to check on Willow. Xander checked her neck to make sure Angelus didn't bite her or anything. Xander jumped, removing his hands from Willows' neck, when his cell phone rang. He took it out and pressed the button, answering it.
"Hey Buffy," he greeted.
"Hey Xander, just calling to let you know that we can't make it to see Willow."
"Why not?"
"I have to patrol, because Giles says I have too."
"What about Giles, Dawn, and where is Anya and Spike?" Xander really didn't trust the disappearance of Spike and Anya at the same time anymore. He knew that he and Anya were not a couple anymore, but that still didn't give her the right to run around with that bloodsucker.
"Don't know about Anya and Spike. Dawn is here as Giles wanted her to help research."
"You know this is your second night not coming here Buffy."
"I know, I know Xander but I…I can't stand to see my friend like that. The doctor already says that she might not wake up again."
"I know my Willow. She's strong. You remember he said she won't breathe on her own either and look, the tube is out."
"That's true," Buffy answered.
"As long as one of us is here when she awakes, it's good."
"Yep," Buffy replied.
"What about Cordelia and the gang?"
"What about them? I haven't heard a word."
"I am still trying to find out why they didn't tell us that Angelus was out."
"I don't know why they didn't give us the heads up. Giles has been trying to get in contact with them, but the answering machine said something about 'on vacation be back in two weeks'."
"That is strange. Going on vacation while Angelus is free," Xander tried to make sense of it all.
"I know. Well gotta go, see you tomorrow and you call me as soon as she wakes up."
"I will," Xander agreed. "Bye Buffy."
"Bye Xander."
Xander pressed the off button and placed the telephone back into his pocket.
Out of the corner of his eye, he could see Willow twitch as the heart monitor went up and just as he was getting ready to get help, it stopped as fast as it started.
He could only pray for his friend, as he sat in the chair next to her and turned on the television.
~Part: 3~
Willow's Flashback………two months ago.
Willow had been having the same dream over and over. She could still hear the voice talking to her, as she lay on her balcony floor.
"That's one less person in the world," the voice taunted her.
She had just returned from somewhere she really had no place going. She had just taken a shower, when there was a tap on her balcony door. Willow smiled, thinking that he hadn't left after he had dropped her off. He must wanted another round or two. As she opened the door, she went into complete shock, as she saw a gun being raised at her and was shot once in her chest, close to her heart.
Willow screamed as she grabbed the hole in her chest as she collapses to the ground. Willow laid there in pain as she heard a voice talking to her.
"That's one less person in the world."
As Willow lay on the ground, she looked up at the sky, her mind starts drifting, as a tear dropped from her eye. Willow could feel her body temperature falling and she began shaking uncontrollably.
Willow didn't know how long she had been laying there, it seemed like an eternity before she could hear Xander's voice calling her. The only thing she could remember, was hearing him scream as he came onto the balcony.
Willow was falling in and out of consciousness, as she heard ambulances arriving. She could hear the medic shouting, `Clear', as they started CPR on her. Willow wanted to scream as she felt herself stop breathing.
Willow couldn't believe what she saw next. It was several demons standing over her smiling.
Willow could only do the next best thing....`pray', because she was sure that these were not holy angels. They had horns, green slimy skin, and had red eyes and long fingernails.
"Dear God, I wonder, can you save me. I can't die, my life is just beginning," she called out, but she knew it was too late for praying.
Willow quietened, as a voice spoke to her.
"Do me a favor and bring your life to me and I'll make it better. I will help you to get who did this to you."
"How long will I live?" Willow asked the strange and unusual question.
"Eternal life and forever," the voice answered.
"And you promise to help me get who did this to me?"
"Yes, for you to take this person out of our life is my pay. This person killed plenty of my kind. If you take this person, I promise to give you eternal life with as much riches as you desire."
Willow smiled at the demon.
"I can make your life better than you can imagine, or even dream of, so relax your soul, let me take control. Close your eyes Willow," the voice ordered.
Willow closed her eyes. The demon seemed to dissolve into Willow. Willow could feel the pain lessen. She still couldn't open her eyes, but she could hear the medic saying that her blood level was normal and they wanted to get her to a hospital ASAP, because she was having difficulties breathing on her own.
~Part: 4~
Angelus just made it back to his new apartment before the sunrise. He was pissed that the boy had interrupted his visit.
"What the hell is wrong with me," he bellowed to an empty room.
He was supposed to be destroying the slayer gang, not falling for the red head. It was only supposed for fun, then kill her, then the rest. He didn't have any problems with killing the rest of them in LA.
Angelus laid back thinking about his escape from LA.
*Flashback……..two months ago LA.*
"Ok, Cordy, don't play with magic you don't understand," Wesley warned.
"I know what I am doing. Angel is asleep, he is all grrrr on us because he isn't getting any, so I am going to do this spell and permanently anchor his soul."
"But Cor….," he started, but was cut off.
"Don't 'but Cordy' me. I know what I am doing and besides you read it and you said that it was an easy and simple spell to do."
"Yes, but I don….what if we get Willow, she knows how to do it."
"No….Willow knows how to recurse him and we don't want him cursed we just want his soul anchored so he would stop being all up tight and frustrated. You saw how that last demon guy got his ass kicked by Angel…which is not a bad thing…..but whew did you see the way Angel kicked……."
"Okay Cordelia, you can do the spell if you just shut up," Wesley spoke as he sat down in the circle with her.
Cordelia started the spell and within minutes she was done.
"That's it….no lights….no whooshing of air?" Cordelia asked as she opened her eyes.
"Maybe you did something wrong," Wesley suggested.
"I don't think so. I called the right sources…I have all the right herbs…..I said all the words…..well that was just a jip….I would think that a spell like this will….." She was once again cut off.
"Ok Cordelia. When did you become the babbler?" Wesley asked.
"Excuse me," she spoke looking at Wesley. "I don't think Angel is the only one under sexual frustration. I am going back to work," she stood and looked down at the mess. "Ok I am going back to work as soon as I clean this up."
Wesley stood, helping Cordelia clean up. Gunn walked in just as they made it to the desk to do some research.
"Hey guys where's the big man? Still beating his victims to a bloody pulp?" Gunn teased.
"Yep," Cordelia answered. "But I think when he wakes he will be a different vampire."
"What is she talking about Wes?" Gunn asked.
"Don't ask me, ask gabber jaw over there, with her whooshing of air!" Wesley teased.
"Alright, did I miss something?"
"Yes, me and frustrated over there, made Angel's soul permanent…I hope….It's just that I didn't get a vibe from it, so I am hoping it worked."
"I don't think I want to get into that," Gunn announced.
"I didn't either, but I had to," Wesley spoke.
"Shut up you two, here he comes," she spoke, as the elevator door rang letting them know that Angel was coming down.
He walked out and looked around. He could see Wesley sitting at the front desk, while Gunn looked confused and Cordy with a big smile on her face. He knew then, that they were the ones that did it.
"Hey everyone," He greeted as he walked up to the refrigerator and grabbed a glass of blood.
"Hey boss," Cordelia responded chipper.
"Hello," both Gunn and Wesley answered.
He frowned a little as he tried to swallow the pigs blood. He set the glass down on the refrigrator as he walked up to Wesley at the counter.
"How are you?" Cordelia asked.
"I feel like my old self again," he answered and smiled.
Wesley looked at Cordelia and she mouthed `told you so' to him.
"That's good, because I have something to tell you," Cordelia jumped up in front of Gunn.
"Really, I have some to show you all," he spoke, as he grabbed a knife out of one pocket and stabbed it into Wesley's right hand. The knife went into Wesley's hand, straight through the counter, making him unable to move.
"Don't move," Angelus teased, as he turned back to a shocked Gunn and Cordelia. He went into his coat pocket and pulled out a small axe, throwing it towards Cordelia. Cordelia didn't have time to scream, as the axe went through her stomach like Swiss cheese and stopped right at Gunn's spine. Both of them looked down slowly, as their bodies collapsed to the floor splitting in two.
Angelus walked up and smiled. "Two birds with one…axe," he mocked, as he walked back up to Wesely trying to get the knife out of his hand. Angelus could hear the grunts of pain and agony as he tried.
"Wes…Wes….Wes….tell me something, do I owe my somewhat mysterious appearance to you and the others?"
Wesley didn't answer, as he continued to try to pull the knife out.
"Is it?" Angelus asked, as he pushed the knife to the side, making Wesley screamed out in pain.
"Yes," he screamed through his teeth.
"Well then, I just wanted to say 'thank you', before I kill you," Angelus teased. "Oh could you do me a favor Wes?"
Wesely shook his head. "No….the only thing I was going to ask, was to make sure you scream as I kill you…it's been awhile," Angelus morphed and walked up to Wesely. He could feel Wesely trying to get away, but to no avail. Angelus sunk his teeth into Wesely's neck, draining him quickly.
As he let go of Wesley's neck, he morphed back, as Wesley dead body hung from the knife.
Angelus went up to the phone and quickly pressed the button for vacation. He smiled, glad that Cordelia insisted they buy that answering machine. She had pre-recorded vacation, out of town, and on break. It was just a precaution for him, in case the slayer and the gang called.
Angelus quickly went back upstairs and grabbed a couple of things before heading to Sunnydale.
~Part: 5~
Angelus had come back to Sunnydale with one thing on his mind. Kill. He wanted the slayer and the whole slayer gang dead.
Angelus had been in Sunnydale for a month scoping out the gang. They all had been so good with protecting each other lately. If they walked, they all were together with the slayer and when the slayer went patrolling she had help, so getting them one by one was going to be a slight problem.
While scoping out the gang occupied his time, the thing was he was bored and at the point horny. Then a plan came into affect, when one night he saw her helping the slayer. She had grown to be a beautiful woman. She was Willow. Willow staked one of the vampires with ease, as Buffy finished off the other two. He didn't know why he hadn't noticed, but he hadn't seen Willow the whole month. He quietly hid behind a tree as he listened to them talk.
"Hey Wil's I didn't expect you back until next month," Buffy spoke as she dusted her pants and they began to walk.
"I know, but mom was getting on my nerves. I enjoyed Washington, but to tell you the truth, I was bored. My mom and dad stayed in meetings half the time and then when they came back to the motel, they talked about what they talked about in the meetings. So I changed my ticket and here I am"
"I'm glad you are back." Buffy spoke, as they continued to walk and talk. Angelus continued to walk behind them listening to them talk about nothing in particular. He didn't know why, but he couldn't take his eyes off Willow. She was beautiful. Her hair was longer than he rememebered and she looked as if she had been working out a little, because those jeans fit her perfectly.
He stopped walking and hid behind the building as soon as he heard Buffy asking Willow about a creepy feeling of being followed.
Both girls looked back and humped their shoulders when they saw they weren't being followed.
"Ok Willow, slumber party, tomorrow, at my house," Buffy insisted.
"No problem Buffy," Willow said, as they headed to her house.
The girls continued to walk and talk, while Angelus continued to follow. Willow didn't tell Buffy, but she did have the feeling that they were being followed. Willow was glad when she made it to the house with no problem.
"Hey Wil's did you meet any cute guys up there?" Buffy asked.
"Yeah a couple and I have their number too," she told her.
"Great, I can't wait to hear about the trip. I'll pick you up around seven, alright?"
"No problem, see you later Buffy."
Willow unlocked her door and quickly closed it. She was inside and felt safer now. Willow was about to call Xander but looked at the clock.
"Man, it's twelve already," she spoke. Willow knew Xander and if he wasn't out on the town, he was asleep this time of the night. She decided to call him tomorrow, to let him know she was back.
As Willow headed towards the stairs, she got that vibe again, as if she was being watched.
"Welcome back to Sunnydale," she tried to shake off the feeling, as she headed upstairs.
Once upstairs, Willow opened her balcony door. She had been doing that a lot since Angel was gone. It's not like she didn't trust him, but she had reinvited him back in when he told her 'bye' that night. She didn't know why he visited her, but she was glad he did. After all he had been through, he needed a friend and she was the friendly type. Willow walked back to her bed and undressed before laying down. She was beat from her trip with her parents. She couldn't believe the first time her parents offer her a chance to see what they do all the time and she leaves them. Willow finally started to drift off to sleep.
Angelus smiled as the witch left the door open with no hesitation. Since his departure they really had been too trusting. He jumped up to the balcony when he noticed that she was asleep.
"Too easy," he whispered. Angelus wanted to work off some frustration, but he wanted to have some fun with it. He knew he could just seduce her and get what he wanted, but that's not what he wanted. Angelus looked around and spotted some paper. He quickly wrote down the address and a little note asking her to meet him there. He taped it to her computer screen before deciding to leave. He knew if he stayed, he wouldn't be able to hold back from seducing her.
He quickly looked at the beauty, before jumping off the balcony and heading back to his apartment. The fun is just beginning.
~Part: 6~
The next morning, Willow woke up around eight, refreshed. She had started sleeping well too and it was doing wonders for her complexion. She stood and headed for the bathroom. She turned on the shower and brushed her teeth as the water warmed up. After brushing, she got into the shower and let the water run over her hair and face. She grabbed the shampoo off the rack and began to wash her hair. After washing her hair and washing with her favorite vanilla body wash, she turned off the shower and got out.
Willow grabbed her towel and wrapped one around her head and the other around her body. She left the bathroom and headed toward her room. She was so energetic and happy for some reason. Willow picked out a black leather skirt that she had brought from Washington and a red blood shirt with pears for buttons. She grabbed her black lace underwear and bra and laid everything on the bed. Willow giggled at the look she knew she would get from the rest of them. This was the new Willow Rosenberg and no one was going to take that way.
After dressing and finding the perfect knee high boots she dried her hair and put on just a little makeup. The whole time, Willow didn't noticed the note, until she sat at her computer to turn it on.
"What's this," she asked herself as she pulled the letter off. She opened it and began to read.
Willow,
I am happy to see you again. I know you didn't see me, because you were sleep in your bed at the time I wrote this letter at your computer. I would like to see you when you awake today at 368 Milton Way Apt 3. I have a proposition for you, that I know you can't resist.
P.S. If you tell the others, this will void any agreement we come to.
With love,
A
Willow was lost. A…..who is A…..Willow thought, but didn't have to think long before it hit her.
"Angel….I mean Angelus," She spoke to herself. Willow didn't know what Angelus could want. She didn't know why he was free and she didn't know why the rest of them didn't warn them of his appearance.
Willow read the note over and over. The main word that stuck was agreement. What type of agreement would Angelus want to make with her?
Willow took a deep breath before calling LA. The phone rung four times before the answering machine picked up with Cordelias' voice speaking.
Willow hung up after hearing her say something about a vacation.
"Damn it," Willow cursed, as she couldn't come to a decision? She knew she should tell Buffy, but then the note is saying not to.
Willow thought a couple of minutes, before standing and grabbing her bag with her trusty stake and holy water. She was older now and smarter now and she didn't need any help. She quickly put on her cross necklace and headed to the address on the letter.
Ten minutes later Willow walked up to a nice apartment. She had noticed these apartments before. This is where Buffy said Angel had moved after he came back. She said he told her, his old apartment had too many memories. Willow knew of this place, but never visited.
Willow walked up to the apartment three and thought. {What the hell am I doing?} She looked at the door as if it would change or something. {I know what I am doing…I am walking in a maniac's apartment with no slayer backup whatsoever.}
Willow thought a little longer before knocking. The knocks were soft. It was in an effort to say she went and knock, but no one was home. But to her surprise, the door opened and a shirtless Angelus answered.
The smiled that he gave her, sent chills down her spine.
"You came," he whispered, looking at the way she was dressed.
"You gave me no choice in the matter," she replied, as she grabbed the bag closer.
"One thing, before I let you in," Angelus spoke.
"What?"
"Lose the bag," he told her.
"But…," she stumbled.
"No buts, Willow…..if I wanted you dead, I had my chance last night in your room."
Willow looked at Angelus, as she let the bag fall to the floor.
"Good, why don't you come in?" He gestured, as he moved to the side.
He chuckled, as Willow mumbled something about vampires getting on her nerves, as she passed by.
"Have a seat Willow," he offered as he sat on the couch and patted the seat next to him.
"No thanks. I like standing, you know it gives me an advantage to run if I have too."
"Sit!" He growled, looking at Willow as his eyes seemed to turn golden.
Willow tensed, then moved slowly and sat beside him on the other side of the couch.
"So tense."
"You would be too if you where in a killer's house."
"Flattery."
"Look Angelus, what do you want?"
"See Willow, I am bored so to speak."
"And you called me over just to talk?"
"Well that and maybe more."
Willow's eyebrow arched as she looked at the killer, looking too sexy for her. Willow crossed her legs as she felt herself getting a little aroused at the look. {Focus Willow….Focus}
Angelus smiled, smelling the fear with the hint of arousal coming off of her.
"What's 'more'?"
"I promise to not kill you, or your friends, if you become my concubine."
"Concubine…….what is that?"
"You do what I say, when I say it, and if you please me, then everyone lives."
"And if I don't?"
"You are the only one *not* to die. You will feel the guilt of not saving your friends when you had to opportunity too."
Willow shifted in her seat ready to run. Angelus was offering to not kill her or her friends if she agreed to be his concubine.
"Does that include sex?"
"Sex is such an overrated word to me. How about making you feel things you've never felt before."
"But I'm….," she stopped and hung her head.
"I know you are a virgin, Willow. That's makes it so much sweeter. Do you know how hard it is to find a virgin in this town? But I promise you one thing."
"What?" She asked finally looking at him again.
"You will enjoy everything I will do to that little body of yours," he teased licking his lips. Willow moved over an inch feeling a small amount of juice run from her.
"I don't know Angelus," she spoke.
"What's not to know about Willow? You come when I need you and please me and in return you and that gang of yours gets to………live," he spat the last part.
Willow was trapped between a rock and a hard place.
"Ok......what do I have to do," she agreed looking around and for the first time noticing the apartment. It had a very nice leather sectional which they were sitting on. A nice glass table. There was the several paintings hanging up on wall. There was a window, which was covered with a drapes and there where lamps and flowers all around.
Angelus watched her looking at his apartment. "First thing, come back here tonight at eight sharp."
Willow head snapped back to him. "I can't, Buffy and I have a thing planned for tonight."
Angelus already knew it. "Cancel it. I don't care how…..be here at eight or the deal's off."
Willow bit her bottom lip hearing the seriousness in his voice. She looked into his chocolate eyes hating the smirk on his face but she nodded anyways. Angelus smiled, knowing that she had plans, he just wanted to see if she would do it.
"Until then," he spoke, as he stood offering Willow his hand. He grabbed her and pulled her close to his body with one hand on her back. He smiled down at the nervous redhead before kissing her slightly on the lips.
Willow jumped at the sensation that went through her body from just the touch of his lips. {For God sake women this isn't even a French kiss stop getting worked up over nothing.} She argued with herself, as she tried to stop her juices from leaking from her more as Angelus kissed her.
Angelus growled a little as he continued to play with Willow. He didn't expect to feel anything from the kiss, but a little spark went through him, before getting his body under control again.
He pulled back and smirked as Willow's lusted filled eyes looked at him. {This is going to be fun} he thought, as he let her go and lead her to the door.
When he opened it, he let her pass and just as she picked up her bag, he spoke. "Three things Willow. Leave the bag and the necklace and don't wear any underwear…you won't need them."
That teasing made Willow tense again, as she stood. She gave him a half smile, as she walked out of the apartment.
Angelus closed the door as she started to walk off.
~Part: 7~
Present...Angelus' apartment.
Angelus moaned as he laid in his bed thinking about how he seduced Willow. He had plenty of women in his time, but Willow was something different. That night that he took her, he knew that it wasn't going to be a one time thing. Willow had passion hidden deep within her, and he was the one to bring it out.
He rolled onto his side, looking at the covered window. He wanted to go back to Willow, but he knew that Xander would still be there, and had probably called the rest of them. It would be bad if he got stuck in the hospital all day. He decided he would just have to go and visit her tomorrow night.
Hospital………..
Xander looked at Willow sleeping, then back to the television. He hoped to God that she would wake up soon. He missed her, and he knew that the others missed her also.
A couple of hours before sunrise, Xander jumped up as a nurse came in, checking on Willow.
"Is she going to be alright?" He nervously asked as the nurse wrote down the information in the chart.
"I can't say, sir. All I know from the chart is that she was progressing well to be a trauma patient, and she might come out of it fine," she explained as she placed the chart back into the slot and opened the curtain.
"Thanks," he said.
Xander decided to watch the news for a while before heading home. It started with its regular updates, then the weather, sports and so on. Then a special bulletin came across, asking viewers to help LA solve a triple homicide. The news anchor explained that two people had been cut in half, and one seemed to be drained of blood.
"Vampires," Xander spoke as he continued to look at the news. He went into complete shock when the news anchor called Cordeila, Gunn, and Wesley's names as the murdered victims. Xander almost fell out of his seat.
"Oh my God!" Was all he could say as he fumbled with his phone in his pocket. He quickly dialed Giles number. When Giles finally picked up, his voice cracked as he told Giles what he just saw.
"Do you think it was Angelus?" Giles asked.
"Without a doubt in my mind about," he replied. "We have to get Willow out of here, Giles."
"Why?" Giles asked.
"He was here when I came up last night. I tried to call you, but I guess you were asleep. I think he was trying to kill her," he told him.
"Calm down, Xander. I doubt that Angelus would do anything to her while she is already out. That would give him no justice what so ever."
"But…" Xander didn't know what to say. His friend was laying in a hospital bed, and the rest of the gang was acting as if they didn't have time for her. Willow had saved all of their lives plenty of times, and the only thing that Giles wanted him to do was calm down.
Xander assured himself that if it was Buffy, they would push her out in the bed if Angelus was after her.
"No but, Xander. Just calm down. I will talk to Buffy and come up with a plan," Giles advised.
"Ok," Xander dryly responded and hung up. He placed the phone in his pocket and looked at Willow, then at then clock.
Xander noticed it was a little after eight. He had to be at work and ten, which gave him just enough time to eat, take a bath and get to work. He really didn't want to leave Willow, but he doubted that Angelus was coming to the hospital in the middle of the day.
Xander gave Willow a small kiss on the forehead and headed out the door.
~Part: 8~
Angelus had been lying down for hours and couldn't sleep. He had his eyes close, and images of him and Willow kept playing over and over in his mind.
*Flashback*
Willow was nearly home before it came to her that she had just made a deal with the devil, so to speak. She couldn't tell anyone about it. Compared to her morning rising, she wished she would have stayed in the bed.
Willow opened the door just in time to hear the phone. She closed it and slowly walked over to the phone.
"Hello," she answered.
"Hey, Willow, are we still on for tonight?" Buffy asked on the other end of the phone.
"Mmmmm…Buffy, I can't I have to ummmm…wait for my mom and dad. They called earlier and told me to be home tonight, because they might be coming back and they wanted to talk to me about something," Willow quickly lied.
"Bummer. Well what about tomorrow?"
"I'll let you know, Buffy," Willow answered. She didn't want to make plans, incase Angelus called her over and she had to go.
"Well let me know when you have some time and we can hang out okay?" Buffy spoke.
"No problem, Buffy," Willow replied. "I'll talk to you later. I have to call Xander."
"I forgot to tell you that Xander were gone out of town for the weekend. He should be back tomorrow."
"Great! I hope he ise having some fun."
"You know party-Xander. Well, gotta go. If you have some time, come by the library later."
"I will. Bye Buffy."
"Bye Will," Buffy responded and hung up.
Willow hung up feeling bad. She had just lied to her best friend. "Why me?" Willow asked as tears began to form in her eyes. A demon wanted her and her body. That was the only way they could be protected, if she became Angelus' concubine. She couldn't hold back any longer, and fell to the floor, crying uncontrollably.
Willow finally stopped crying hours later. She had gone from the floor to the couch, and had cried herself to sleep. Her stomach was the one to wake her. She remembered that she hadn't had any breakfast before going to Angelus' apartment.
Willow looked, around a little disoriented, before sitting up. She looked at the clock and nearly died at what time it was.
"Seven already," she yelled. "I slept for almost seven hours? Damn it."
Willow hurried and went into the kitchen, fixing herself a turkey sandwich and a glass of juice. After quickly eating, she ran upstairs and took a quick shower.
After her shower, she quickly dressed in another one of her new outfits. She wore the same thing but this time it was opposite. She had on a red leather skirt and a black shirt. Once she was dress, she brushed her hair and gave herself a quick look, then thought about it Angelus said no cross, no bag and no underwear. She proceeded to take off the necklace, laying it on the dresser; then she took off her underwear.
Willow carefully looked at herself once more, knowing that when she returned, she would not be the same person. A demon would have taken her virginity. The one thing that she was saving for someone she loved, and now she had to give it to a horny vampire with too much time on his hands. She quickly left the mirror and grabbed her keys. It was seven-forty five and she had fifteen minutes to get to his apartment.
***
Willow wanted badly to just go back home, but her legs kept going toward Angelus' apartment. She hoped that she wouldn't be seen by Buffy or anyone else before she got there. When she made it to the apartment with a couple of minutes to spare, she took some deep breaths.
Willow raised her hand several times before actually knocking on the door. The red head witch stood back, waiting for the door to open. Willow could feel her hands getting sweaty, her heart was beating like a drum and her mouth, all of a sudden, got dry.
The door swung opened, and this time Angelus answered. He had on a black shirt, unbuttoned and his trade mark leather pants.
"Right on time. I like that in a woman," he spoke as he took in Willows outfit. "You look ravishing," he teased as she walked by.
Angelus closed and locked the door as Willow went into the front room. He smiled at how tensed and quiet she was. She stopped and turned to him.
"Ummmm...no bag." He grabbed her hair and moved it from around her neck. "And no cross," he spoke, letting go of her hair. "I will find out later if you did the third thing I asked."
Willow was very surprised when she heard soft music playing in the background saw and candles lit everywhere. Angelus pulled her to him. He grabbed her around the waist, letting her lay her head on his chest, and she placed her hand on his shoulders as they began to dance with the music.
Willow hesitated at first, then started to move with the music. Angelus didn't know why he was doing this, but for some reason he wanted her relaxed. It wouldn't be any fun if she was tense. As another song started, Willow began to ease more and more.
They continued to dance. Angelus could feel Willow's arm moving from his shoulder to his neck. She was beginning to grind herself against him. He didn't think she knew what she was doing.
Angelus tried not to think of the heat that her body was giving off, or the way she smelled. It had been a long time since he had a willing, breathing, virgin. Angelus was mentally beating himself up, trying to get control of his body, but he was loosing the battle. He couldn't hold back any longer. Angelus moaned as he got an erection, which push painfully against his leather pants.
Willow dance for a few seconds before feeling something up against her stomach. She jumped back after noticing what it was. Angelus chuckled at her innocence.
"See what you do to me, Willow," he teased as he looked into her eyes.
Willow nodded.
Angelus grabbed her hand and led her to the bedroom without hesitation. As he walked, he could feel will trying slightly to pull her hand away. It made him smile, knowing that she was this nervous. He liked it.
Willow was quiet and scared. She could only follow and do what he wanted. She just wanted him to take her so that she could leave and take a long bath, and for the first time break into her parents' liquor cabinet. Willow began to mentally beat herself up as she continued to walk. She could have drunk something before coming over, and then she wouldn't be so nervous.
Once they made it to the room, Willow expected him to throw her on the bed and just take her, but he didn't.
Angelus sat on the bed and pulled Willow between his legs.
"You know, Willow this, doesn't have to go like this."
"Wha…what do you mean?"
"I know you are frightened, but I promise to make sure that you enjoy everything," he told her as his hands rubbed the outside of her legs. Her legs began to feel like jelly and he had only touched her.
Willow nodded and raised her hands to unbutton her shirt. Angelus stopped her by grabbing her hand and moving them out of the way.
"No Willow," he spoke. "Sit."
Willow moved from between his legs and sat on the bed. Angelus turned and looked at her.
"Have you kissed anyone besides me, Willow?"
She nodded.
"Has any man ever touched you, felt you, tasted you?"
Willow hesitated then shook her head.
"Good. Then I can teach you everything I know."
Angelus slowly stood in front of Willow. He told her to lie back onto the bed. He watched as she slide up the bed and laid down in the middle. He smiled at the sight of having her in his bed. He could here her heart beating and could smell her fear with a hint of arousal. He slowly placed one knee, then the other on the bed between her legs. He gently grabbed her right ankle and slowly rubbed her smooth legs, then back down to her shoes. He took off one boot, then the other. He began to rub from her ankle up to her knee and to her thigh.
Willow had closed her eyes when he first touched her, and now her mouth was parted, waiting for him to reach his destination. She wasn't aware of the breath she was holding. Angelus looked at his beauty; he didn't know he could get much harder. He hesitated for a second, then he slowly moved from her thigh up to her now wet passage.
He only grazed her, but he had traces of her juices on his hand. He moaned at how hot and how wet she was from his touch only.
"Good girl," he whispered, trying to get his body under control. He wasn't sure that she would do it.
Angelus moved his hands up to her shirt and began to unbutton it. He opened her shirt and moaned; he could see her nipples trying to break from their lace prisons. He told her to lift up while he unhooked her bra and took both her shirt and bra off.
After her shirt was removed, Willow covered herself with her hands a little.
"No, you are beautiful," he whispered as he worked on the zipper in the back of the skirt. After he zipped it down, she laid down and lifted her hips a little as he took the skirt off. He turned to drop the article on the floor, then he turned back to his beauty and almost came at the sight of her lying on his bed, naked and beautiful.
"Willow, you don't know how beautiful you are," he whispered as he took off his shirt. He laid on her slightly, and gave her a small kiss on the lips as he did earlier that day. Willow couldn't help but respond. She was getting a tingling feeling in the pit of her stomach, and she was sure that it was because of Angelus. As they continued to kiss, he increased the pressure just a little. Willow responded by grabbing the back of his head, urging him to go on.
Willow moaned when Angelus growled as she opened her mouth. He entered her mouth with his tongue.
They kissed for what felt like forever, before Angelus pulled back to let her get some much needed air. Willow was now panting as Angelus kissed her neck, then moved down to the valley of her breasts. Willows' hands were now in Angelus' hair, urging him on. She was making the most beautiful moaning noises, that were driving him crazy.
Angelus quickly sucked one of Willow nipples into his mouth, biting it slightly when he let go, making her back arch, that made her grab his hair tighter. Angelus ignored the little pain in his head as he did the same to the other breast before moving back up and kissing her.
Angelus had many things to show her, but he didn't want to overwhelm her with all of it this time. He had to get her mind off of her virginity and more on the feelings.
Angelus stopped kissing her and chuckle when she growled a little. He stood and discarded his pants. He heard Willow's intake as his cock sprung free. He smiled, knowing that he was probably the first man she had ever seen.
He rejoined her on the bed, lying on top of her. He kissed her again. Willow's hands were on his back as they continued to kiss. He rose slowly, grabbing his cock. Angelus placed it at her entrance, but was careful not to push forward. He went up and down a couple of time, lubricating himself. He stopped kissing Willow and looked into her eyes. He could see they were fog with lust, which was right where he wanted her.
"No turning back Willow," he spoke before entering her with one stroke. He stilled, knowing that it had to hurt her at how hard she clawed at his back. When Willow loosened her grip on his back, he moved all the way out and slowly reentered her.
Angelus was in a losing battle and he was just getting started. Willow was making soft moaning noises which were driving him wild. He looked down to see that her eyes were close and she was biting her bottom lip. Angelus continued to thrust into her and she started moving with him. Angelus continued his slow, agonizing strokes for an hour. Willow hadn't really cum yet, because he didn't wanted her to. He knew that she was close several times and he would slow his actions even more.
He knew she was ready when she stopped all movement and she opened her eyes, looking into his.
"Let it go Willow," he pleaded with her wanted her to cum this time.
Willow arched her back and let out a sheik as she came, calling his name for the first time. That was Angelus' undoing, as he sped up his thrusts, spilling his cold seeds deep within Willow's womb.
He pulled out of Willow and lay beside her.
Angelus thought about it. Maybe he could keep the promise and not kill her friends if she did what he asked. This didn't have to be a one time thing. He grabbed her around her waist and pulled her to him, and they both fell asleep.
The next couple of months, Willow started to visit Angelus without him telling her to, and he started to teach Willow different things.
~Part: 9~
Present.........Angelus Apartment.
Angelus slept the day away. He rose as soon as night fell. He had to get to his Willow as soon as possible. The dark vampire needed to see her, even if he had seen her all day in his dreams. Angelus couldn't remember when the dreams started or when they ended. The only thing he knew was that they were full of the red haired witch. His dreams of Willow and him were not something he thought he would be having. This was the first time, dead or alive that he had dreamt about anyone. Maybe this was the first time he was in love. He couldn't believe that....him a master vampire...the Scourge of Europe.......him that was now acting like a pussy whipped teenager.
Angelus growled out loud as he closed his apartment door. He would grab a bite to eat before heading to the hospital to see Willow. The dark hair vampire walked up to his favorite scenery....the cemetery. Angelus tensed a little, feeling the present of the slayer around. He began to walk with caution. He was not in the mood to deal with Buffy tonight. As Angelus walked through the cemetery he could here the fatal screaming of a young girl. The fear was strong and very intoxicating for him. It was so intoxicating that he had to find out what had this human so scared. He hid behind a tree, waiting as he heard her heart beat louder and louder as he walked as close as he could without being seen. He was shocked to see Dawn kneeling down over someone. He focused his eyes more to see that it was Giles......dead. His head was severed and his body looked as if it had walked ten feet before collapsing.
Angelus hid a little more when he saw Buffy, Anya, Spike and Xander run up to Dawn. The dark vampire could see the slayer grabbing her sister and holding her close as both let the tears fall down.
Xander looked at Spike with hatred in his eyes while Anya mostly looked off into the night.
“Where were you, Spike?” Xander blurted out.
“I was with Anya, looking for vampires, you stupid boy,” Spike replied as he grabbed a pack of cigarettes out of his pocket and took one out.
“He's lying, Buffy,” Xander argued.
Spike only rolled his eyes as he placed the cigarette in his mouth after putting the pack back into his pocket.
“Look at him,” Xander yelled as Buffy and Dawn both tried to calm down.
Spike took a puff then blew the smoke off.
“If you have forgotten....I....can't....hurt....humans,” Spike reminded the group as he continued to smoke.
Everyone quieted and looked at Xander. He seemed to nod his head, remembering the blond vampire couldn't harm humans.
“It had to be a vampire,” Buffy stood brushing off her clothes.
“Do you think it was Angelus?” Dawn asked standing also.
Angelus smiled, thinking that they would be so generous to give him that kill. He continued to watch the gang.
“Look....Dawn I want you to go home,” Buffy suggested.
“But........” Dawn spoke, but was stopped by the glaze of her sister eyes.
“I know just go home. I don't want you to get hurt.”
“Anya, take Dawn home for me,” Buffy ordered, throwing Anya her keys.
Dawn and Anya walked off towards the car.
“Xander, Spike, lets get him,” she pointed at Giles.
“What exactly are 'we' going to do when we get him?” Spike asked flicking the cigarette into the grass.
“I don't know....Should we call the police or what?”
“Police is good....We should call the police,” Xander suggested.
“Police is....” Buffy stopped talking at the sound of something crashing.
“What the bloody hell was that?” Spike asked. All three took off running in the direction that Anya had driven.
***
They ran until they were on the street next to the cemetery.
“No....no...no,” Buffy started saying over and over as she saw her car crashed into a building.
“What the...” Xander spoke as he ran up to the car.
“Dawn........Dawn.........Anya............” Buffy called out as she snatched open the car door with inhuman strength.
Buffy saw both Dawn and Anya laid out on the dashboard. Spike walked up to Buffy and laid his hand on her shoulder. Buffy snatched away and started running. Xander and Spike didn't know where she was headed. They began to run behind her.
Angelus waited for everything to be clear before heading toward the hospital. He really didn’t care what was going on.
~Part: 10~
“Going somewhere slayer?” Buffy heard as familiar voice as she finally started walking two streets over from the hospital.
Buffy froze in one spot and smiled.
“It was you, wasn't it?” Buffy asked.
“Yes and no,” Buffy heard the response. “No it wasn't fully me and yes I had something to do with it.”
Buffy turned and looked right into the eye of one pissed off witch.
“You should have died when I shot you,” Buffy yelled.
Willow smiled. “I almost did, but thanks to my new friends I am good as new and stronger than you.”
The red haired witch closed her eyes as she felt the present of her lover standing in the shadows, watching her and Buffy in the middle of the road.
“Are we really going to do this?” Buffy asked, preparing to kill Willow this time.
“You shot me, bitch.....You shot me because you, Giles, Anya, and Dawn read up on some prophecy about killing me,” Willow spoke feeling the powers going through her.
“You were fucking Angelus and he was going to........”
“To what, fall in love with me and then kill all of you, because you all couldn't take it that I was fucking a demon and he loved every bit of me and I loved ever bit of him,” Willow answered.
“How did you?”
“I know everything, Buffy,” Willow snarled. “I know your plan. Your plan was to kill me first before Angelus fell in love with me and killed you all for trying to separate us. The only people that didn't know about it were Spike and Xander.”
Spike and Xander both looked at each other strangely at the call of their names as they listened from the side of a building, while Angelus was getting pissed off on the other side.
“I know you were jealous, Buffy, but to try to kill me over Angelus…”
“Angel was mine!” Buffy screamed.
“And you killed him, and Angelus is now mine,” she snapped.
Angelus couldn’t help but feel the love of this woman. She was more powerful than he thought.
Buffy walked up to Willow. They were now a couple of feet from each other.
“Why, Willow....I saw you going to his house that night I shot you.....I saw those things he did to you through the window......and the only thing I could do is remember when Angel made love to me....you knew I loved Angel...why would you sleep with Angelus?” Buffy looked at Willow.
The redheaded witch smirked.
“She did it to save your neck, slayer,” Angelus spoke coming out of the shadows. “I showed Willow plenty of things Angel never even thought about showing you.”
Buffy looked past Willow to Angelus as he walked up to them. Fear began to roll off of her.
“What do you mean?” The slayer asked.
“I was bored and wanted something to do, so I promise to keep you and the gang alive if Willow would become my concubine,” Angel answered as he stopped right behind Willow. “She did it to save your necks.”
Buffy let the words roll around in her head. She felt as if someone had hit her with a freight train. She couldn’t believe that she almost killed her best friend for something that she did just to save their lives.
“Now, now, Buffy don't get all sentimental on me,” Angelus teased.
“Willow....I'm...sor......” Buffy words were cut off as Willow drew back and punched her in the face with strength unknown.
Buffy stumbled back a few feet but didn't fall. She could feel the blood gusting from her nose.
“Don't you dare say your sorry, bitch,” Willow screamed. “Do you know what I had to promise to keep you alive? I did it for you at first, but now I only do it because I love him.” Willow turned and looked behind her, down the vacant street where Spike and Xander was standing. “I am going to kill you, just to let you know, and Xander and Spike, if you want to help her you can, if you want to die too, if not stay out of this.”
Both males stood in one spot, never seeing the witch that angry. Angelus even stepped back from Willow.
Before those words were out of Willow’s mouth, Buffy rushes at her.
Willows ducked a punch from Buffy and came up behind her. Willow spun around to block her return swing. Buffy blocked another jab from her, and punched Willow in the face. Willow followed up with a left hook, and Buffy lost her balance, nearly falling down. Willow grabbed Buffy by the back of her coat and threw her onto the ground. The slayer rolled away and onto her back, looking up at Willow.
“Up,” Willow ordered and Buffy moved from the ground to suspend in mid-air. “Stay,” Willow spoke, waving her hand.
Buffy tried to move, but a force field had her.
“Look at me....Buffy,” Willow ordered.
She waved two extended fingers before Buffy's eyes and begins to hypnotize her.
“It was fun, but now you have to die,” Willow spoke. “It was one other thing the demon showed me while I was asleep. Either you or I had to die, and guess what? It has to be you.” Willow smiled evilly as she swung her hand up and sliced Buffy's neck with her sharp nails.
Now able to move, Buffy grabbed at her neck as it begins to bleed heavily, and collapsed to the floor. Willow watched her fall, and turned to look down at her.
“Pleasant dreams,” she whispers.
Angelus walked back up to Willow, giving her a kiss.
“You alright?”
“Pur.....” Willow started speaking, but began to shake uncontrollably.
Angelus let go and looks at her as a demon came out of her chest. Willow collapsed to the floor, semi-conscious. Angelus ran over to her and picked her up.
The demon looked around and smiled at the fallen red head.
“She will be fine....She had done well and now we are free,” he advised Angelus, then turned to Xander and Spike. “As for you two, if you can't handle them being together, leave this town and never show your face again.”
Xander nodded, walking off into the night.
“I don't care what bloody well happens to them,” Spike spoke, walking off also.
The demon turned and smiled again. “She is the brave one,” he spoke before disappearing.
Angelus began to walk in the direction of his home, carrying his most prized possession.
As he walked in and laid her down on the bed, she finally opened her eyes.
“Did I do well?” She asked.
“Yes you did, Willow....sleep.”
“I love you Angelus.”
“Love you too,” he spoke kissing her on her forehead and lying beside her.
The End
