The past couple of days were a living hell. Especially for Buffy and Dracula. They were two sworn mortal enemies that were forced to share the same hotel and a further enforced torture of having connecting rooms. They both hated every second of it but for the damage they were about to inflict they tolerated each others company. They mostly just bickered and taunted each other to pass the time. When they were in a serious mood they would talk about the plans to bring Angelus and Willow down.

***

"Tonight is the night Angelus will die by my own hands." Dracula sang as he walked into Buffy's room.

"Hey! You could at least knock." Buffy bellowed.

"Why?" Dracula asked.

"What if I would have been naked?" She told him as she sat down on the bed to put on her shoes.

"Well lucky me that you weren't. It's not like there is much to see." Dracula teased.

"Trust me it's more that you could handle. Anyways I wouldn't try you if you were the last vampire on this earth. I tried it once and it wasn't anything then and I've heard that all vamps are alike. Why should I make myself suffer again?" Buffy lied easily as she stood up to go into the bathroom to apply her makeup. She knew Angel was the only person that ever made her feel a certain way.

"Awhhhhh...I am so hurt. I should just kill myself." He made a stabbing gesture to his dead heart with his hands as he walked to the bathroom door where Buffy was.

"Good. Then the world would be a better place." She told him.

"See I am over it already. Why don't we kiss and make up."

"In your dreams." She snapped.

"More like my nightmares." He retorted. "Ok enough joking around. Like I was saying tonight is the night to claim our revenge on Angelus and Willow. It will be most.....delicious" Dracula informed Buffy as he watched her put on the last of her makeup.

"I know. I can't wait to see their faces when Willow's power is stolen and then she taken from him." Buffy gloated as she walked out of the bathroom.

"How do I look?" She asked

"Good enough to eat." Dracula responded. {More like kill} he thought.

"Thanks I think. It depended on how you meant it."

"It depends on how you take it." He almost snapped.

"Okay enough of these games. Go...it is almost sunset. I don't have much time." He told her.

"Okay. The plan will go as we said. I will be at The Panther on the next street in about an hour. Then I will have Willow  walk with me to the bathroom. You and your minions better be in the right spot."

"You don't have to worry about me my dear. I will be there on time." He told her

Buffy turned and walked out of the hotel door. Just as the door shut Dracula turned and called one of the minions into the room.

"Yes sir." The minion cowered as he entered the room.

"We are leaving in a few. I am going to make Angelus pay for what he did to me. He will die by my hand tonight."

"When do we leave?" The minor asked.

"In about an hour or two. We have to make sure we are here with the girl before midnight. Once we have her here we will take her to the top of this very building. Once the loonier alignment is in place we will begin the ritual. Once it is completed her powers will be transferred to me. After the transformation is completed then Angelus and the bitch slayer will die."

"Yes master. This will be a great night for you."

"Yes indeed. Go upstairs and prepare for the ritual and make sure everything is in place. I will not tolerate any mistakes from any of you."

"Yes Sir." The minion bowed before taking his leave.

***

"Why are you acting so nervous baby?" Angel asked as he sat on the bed to tie up his shoes. He had just gotten off the phone with Giles telling him that Buffy was coming back tomorrow. Giles was pleased to hear it and thanked Angelus for his help.

"I am not……..I just..?" Willow stopped speaking and looked away.

"Just what?" he asked concerned.

"I..I..just don't know why but I feel wired."  She tried to explain.

"Wired?" He asked not really following her.

"Yeah like my magic is all out of whack. I feel a tingling inside. It started a couple of days ago but now it's stronger."

"Are you okay. Do you still want to go out?" He asked getting a little concerned.

"Yeah I am sure. If this is the only way to get Buffy to slay again then I am going to do it."

"Ok lets do it then we come back and I can do you."

"Not funny Angel." Willow continued to run around the room looking for something to put on.  She looked in her closet and grabbed the perfect outfit.

Angel got up and was getting ready to walk into the bathroom to rush Willow when he heard the doorbell ring. "Baby come on that has to be Buffy." He told her as he turned to walk out of their room.

"Go ahead and let her in baby I'll be ready in a few." Willow yelled as she ran into the bathroom to put on her clothes and make-up.

{Woman they were never ready on time two hundred years ago and they still are the same now.} Angel thought as he walked down stairs to answer the door.

Buffy was standing on the other side of the door. She was a little nervous about the whole situation and in two days she finally had some time to think as she walked to the hotel. {You know you are about to destroy two people lives.} She thought trying to reason with herself. She thought for a couple more seconds and though about what she was going to do to Angel. {Shit, I don't care. They didn’t care about me when they were fucking each other.}

"Damn it. Where the hell are they." Buffy thought as she got herself together and rung the door bell again.

Angel was just about to grab the doorknob when a flash of heat went through his body that almost knocked him down to his knees. His body felt as if it was on fire. Angel couldn’t really get a grip on what the was happen. The heat seem to say in his body for only a couple of seconds then it was gone just like it had came.

"What the hell was that?" He asked himself as he took an unneeded breath. His body was in over drive. It wasn't anything like the spells curse this was a totally different feeling. This was like Willow was calling him more like Willow's body was calling him.

Angel stood straight. He had to calm himself a little he finally got his body under control a little then he opened the door.

"Hi Buffy.

"Hiya Angel," She said as he walked up to him and gave him a big hug. Then let go. "I thought you two had changed your mind or something." She told him as she walked past him.

"Naaaa...We were up stairs. That's what took me so long." He told her as he lead her to the couch. "Have a seat I will go and get Willow."

It kinda took Angel off guard when Buffy hugged him. He was so deep in his thoughts that only when he felt her he was pulled out of them. He was hoping she didn’t feel him pull away as she got to close for his comfort.

As he walked up stairs he began to think that when that heat went through his body he could have sworn that he heard Willow calling out his name. But what Angel didn't know was that Willow had experienced the same exact thing when he did, as she was getting ready to walk out the door of their room and almost collapsed on the floor on making it just in time to sit beside the tub. Willow did call out to him but only in her mind she didn’t know what had happen she just wanted him there.

When he walked into the room he could smell her. The arousal filled the whole room. But he ignored it because he didn't want her to get all nervous. They had already talked about her magic acting up and he didn't want her to worry more about it. Then he just thought that since it was so close to their time that he was just in a rush to be with her. But he couldn’t figure why was she so aroused now. He shook away as he went into the bathroom.

"Willow baby. Buffy." His words were cut off when he saw her. She had on these leather pants that was just the right size and the blood red shirt that she didn't have buttoned up all the way. {God she didn't have that on when I left. You are in control man.} He told himself as he watched her put on her make up.

Willow giggled as she turned around and noticed that Angel was standing in the door almost drooling. She placed the lipstick down and turned to him holding up her arms. "You like."

He could only nod.

"Thanks I guess. What were you saying before baby?" She asked him.

"Huh...Oh...yeah Buffy is down stairs. Are you ready." He finally got his words together.

"Yep lets go." She answered him as she walked in front of him grabbing the leather jacket off the bed.

{She's ready. If she only knows how ready I am} he thought as they walked down stairs.

Willow was pleased that Angel didn't say anything about her when he came up stairs. She knew that he could smell the arousal coming off of her in waves. She didn't know what the problem was. Willow was thinking that since they were close to their time then it would be like that. She also thought that it was the magic acting up.

Willow took a deep breath then sighed a little disappointed that he didn't say anything about it. Willow had thought that Angel would like the leather look on her. But it was more like loved. {Girl you had him speechless} she giggled to herself as they made it to the last step.

Buffy jumped off the couch when the couple made it down stairs. "Willow girl you look great." She told her as Willow smiled and thanked her.

"Shit Angel you might have some completion from the other men tonight when they get a good look at Willow." Buffy told him as she put her arm around Willows neck and walked towards the door.

"I know but I trust Willow." He told her as he closed the door behind them.

***

The walk to the club seemed like hours for Willow and Angel. Buffy kept blabbing about nothing at all. Angel and Willow kept giving her short yes's and no's and some maybes as they continued. They were not really focusing on the conversation because they kept wondering what had happen back at the house. Their minds may be fine but there bodies weren't. Willow could tell because Angel had little beads of sweat on him when she knew that vampires didn't sweat. She kept asking him was he all right and he kept saying he was but she knew better. His eyes were just a light shade of yellow and they both knew what that meant.  He wanted sex and lots of it. Like she would complain if he just took her right now.

Willow's only thought was to make this little outing as short as possible so they can get back home not really knowing that Angel was having the same thoughts as her. They both didn't really pay any attention when they made it to the club they was about to walk past when Buffy began to talk.

"You two are too quiet for me tonight. Is everything alright?" Buffy asked as they made their way to the table.

"Yeah were fine." Willow answering for both of them. Angel pulled out the seat for Willow then for Buffy. Once they were seated he sat on the other side of he table. Not too close to Willow and not to far.

Willow silently thanked the Gods that he didn't sit too close because she didn't know if she could keep her hands off him. Any other time she would have gotten upset but tonight was different. They sat for a couple of minutes not really talking at all. They both were broken from their train of thoughts when Buffy jumped up and offered to get them something to drink.

"What do you want Angel?" Buffy asked.

"It doesn't matter Buffy as long as it's a double or triple what ever it is." He told her finally looking at Willow.

She turned to Willow. "What about you Wil's?"

"The same." Was all Willow said as her eyes caught Angel almost demon colored eyes.

"Out to get drunk are we not." Buffy teased as she went to get the drinks.

Willow turned to Angel and asked him again. "Are you sure you are ok baby?"

"Yeah just really not in the mood for going out tonight."  Angel didn't want to spoil it for Willow so he added. "When the drinks get back were going to dance. I know you didn't dress like that for us just to sit and talk all night."

"Okay then. It's time to get into the party mood." Willow told him as she started to cheer up herself.

Buffy was happy to see them out of that dreadful mood when she returned to the table with their Jack and cokes. They had been so quiet all the way over but now that they were laughing when she walked up she felt better.

"It about time you two get out of that mood." She told them as she handed Angel his then Willow.  She was about to sit down when a vampire walked up to the table making Angel tense up. The vamp looked at Willow then at Angel and then back to Willow and cocked his head then he turned and looked at Buffy.

"May I have this dance?" He asked Buffy.

"Sure let dance." She told him as she took his hand.

"Geez...what was that about?" Willow asked Angel.

"Nothing. I believe he was going to ask you to dance first but he notice you were marked then he turned to me and notice I was the one who marked you. So I am guessing that's why he asked Buffy." Angel explained.

"Oh I see" Willow said as she took a sip of her drink.  "But don't you find it strange for a vamp to  ask a slayer to dance.

"Yeah but I guess he knows what he is getting himself into." Angel answered. "Can I have this dance?" He asked as he held out his hand.

"Of course you can." Willow told him as they both stood and walked to the dance floor.

They made it to the dance floor just as a slow song was starting. {Great} both of them thought as the need for closeness was not now.

Angel grabbed Willow around the waist and pulled her close growling at the contract. Willow wasn't too surprised of the way she felt when they made contact but she tried to not think about it by putting her arms around his shoulder and laying her head on his chest.

Angel knew that this was a bad idea because he could tell her temperature was rising and he could smell her arousal and he knew she could feel him. They both were swaying to the music until they were in a trance. Willow had begun to grind up against Angel, which only made him growl even harder. He began to rub her back not really caring what was going on around him.

They were so into each other that they didn't know that a light had began to form around them lifting them up in the air a couple of feet, which grew so bright that no one could see them now.

They both seemed to be floating and they didn't even care. Willow was so lost with passion that she wanted Angel right then. She pulled him down a little and began to kiss him. Angel couldn't' do anything but give in to her. The kiss seemed to last for hours when finally Angel tried to get control of himself.   He pulled back trying to clear the fog from his head. "Willow baby you have to stop." He told her as he looked around and didn't see anything but light.

"I can't." Willow told him  the sound of her voice was so full of lust it made his body shiver. Willow grabbed him back down and gave him another fierce kiss this time running her hands anywhere she could touch which only cause him to follow her lead.

Angel was helpless to her demands. Her hands were again around his neck then she move her right hand to the front of his shirt and slowly started to unbutton it.  He pulled back again and tried to get her to understand.

"Willow baby please listen."  He pleaded. He could see the lust leaving her eyes a little. "Baby something is wrong. We were in the club remember?"

"Yes." She answered but it came out to him more like a moan of permission to take her it was so deep that is sent a shiver down his spine.

"Look around Willow there is nothing but light. Everything is gone." He tried to explain.

Willow looked around and began to panic a little and that's when it happened. The light began to fade and the club came back into sight.

"What happened Angel?" Willow asked a little shaken.

"I don't know baby. But what ever it was it's fading now." He told her as he took a couple of steps away from her.

Buffy and the vamp had almost danced to the other side of the room to talk about the plan when they made it to the floor. They were in full conversation when Buffy saw the light forming around Willow and Angel she almost made the vampire lose his balance as she let go of the him in mid sing and walked back over to were Willow and Angel had been dancing. She was shocked just like everyone else Buffy was trying to figure out was going on also. She watched as the light began to float down and then began to fade. Then Angel and Willow appeared looking just as confused as the rest of the by standers.

Buffy walked up to Angel and Willow nervously. "What happen to you two?"

"I don't know." Willow said as she grabbed Angels' hand and walked him back to the table. Buffy was right behind them.

The music went back to playing and the people continued dancing.

"I don't know what that was but I have to get out of here." Willow told Buffy as she downed her drink.  "I agree." Angel finished off his drink just as quickly.

"Okay then...uh..I..lets go to the bathroom first Willow. I don't think I can hold it until we get back.

"Ok." She told Buffy as she stood up. "I'll be right back baby." Willow told Angel.

"Ok baby."

Buffy and Willow walked into the bathroom. Buffy could tell Willow was scared. She walked into the stall and used it and walked back out. She saw Willow looking into the mirror. "You ok Wil's?" She asked as she washed her hands.

"Yeah I just need to get home. I think that was me who did that. My magic is acting up badly." Willow tried to explain.

Buffy started to say something when the door opened and two vamps came into the bathroom. Willow didn't even turn to see what was going on. She was so ready to go and talk to Wesley.   "Sorry Willow but you can't go home yet." Buffy told her.

"What do yo..?" Willow words were cut short as one vamp grabbed Willow from behind  wrapping his hand around her mouth so she couldn’t scream and the other grabbed her feet dragging her out of the club. Buffy followed as they walked out of the bathroom she was happy that no one else was in there. Buffy followed them to a parked car inside the alley. Buffy looked and saw two more vamps standing, waiting for them.

Willow struggled trying to scream but couldn't. The vampire had a good grap on her mouth but that didn’t stop her from struggling.

She looked at Buffy as she stood at the end of the car laughing. Willow felt the  rage going through her body. {Bitch betrayed me} she thought.  Willow felt her whole world shatter as she felt a prick in her arm then every thing went black.

"Take her to the building and I'll be there." Buffy ordered.

"Yes slayer." The vampire holding Willow answered. They put her in the back seat and got in and drove away.

"You two come with me." Buffy ordered the other vampires that stood on the outside.

As they walked back into the club Buffy told them what to do.

Buffy walked back up to the table where Angel was sitting. He looked up and then looked behind her for Willow but he only saw two more vamps that walked past the table not really paying them any attention.

"Where's Willow?"

"I don't know." Buffy answered.

"What do you mean you don't know?" He stood up almost exploding. "She was with you when you went into the bathroom.” He could feel Angelus on the inside tearing at him to let him free.

"What I meant to say was she is gone and you will never find her." Buffy smirked.

Angel went into game face and was about to jump at Buffy when he felt someone grab him from behind.

"Angel..you really think that I would forgive you for fucking my friend." Buffy told him as she walked up too him. “I know that Willow could never please you like I did.”

“She pleased me more than anyone I have EVER been with.” Angel snapped as he struggled against the two vampires but they won’t let him go. Angel could feel that if he could get to Buffy he would snap her neck.

"Buffy if you hurt her I will.." His words were cut short when he felt a prick at his neck then everything went black.

Buffy walked up to him and smiled. "Or you'll what Angel?"

She looked around to se if anyone was paying any attention to them which they weren’t then she at the minions that had him.

"Where do you want to take him?" One of them asked.

"Take him back to our hotel. Make sure you tie him down in the basement until Dracula needs him. Make sure it's secured.

"Ok."

Buffy looked at her watch to see it was 9:30 p.m. {I have to find something to do.} She walked out of the club with the Dracula's minions dragging the unconscious Angel behind her.
