Star-CrossÆd Lovers (4/5)
by Jaclyn Amy
TITLE: Star-CrossÆd Lovers
AUTHOR: Jaclyn Amy
RATING: PG
DISTRIBUTION: Ask me first.
SPOILERS: None.
SUMMARY: Angel is Angelus and has killed Ms. Calendar. Pretty much, this just
shows how strong AngelÆs and BuffyÆs love is. Oh, and this isnÆt your regular
restoration story. This gets sad, so if you are not into that kind of thing,
donÆt read it.
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Buffy the Vampire Slayer. It is owned by Joss Wheden,
Mutant Enemy, Sandollar Productions, 20th Century Fox, etc. No infringement
intended.
FEEDBACK: Please.
Star-CrossÆd Lovers(4/5)
Angel and Buffy had spent the rest of the day cleaning out AngelÆs
appartment, saying goodbyes, and groping. It was 7:56; two minutes until he
was gone.
"Angel, I donÆt want to let you go."
"I donÆt want to let you go either."
"Buffy, I love you. IÆve loved you since the day I met you. I donÆt regret
one bit this decision, or any decision youÆve made for that matter."
"I love you too. I-"
Suddenly life started to drain from this face. "Kiss me," he whispered,
"donÆt say goodbye."
And so she did just that. One small kiss on his lips, and his eyes closed.
"Angel!" she shrieked. "NO!" A burst of tears fell down her face. She held
her face in her hands and noticed her ring. As she started looking for her
cross, she found a key to her drawer. She opened it up and saw the gun. On a
piece of paper, she scribbled something and left it on the desk. Her hands
picked up the gun. She pulled back the hammer and stuck it to her head. Her
eyes closed, she pulled the trigger and fell into AngelÆs arms, where she
would live forever.
*****
Angel: Is there a problem, ma'am?
Buffy: Yeah, there's a problem. Why are you following me?
Angel: I know what you're thinking. Don't worry, I don't biteàTruth is, I
thought you'd be taller, or bigger muscles and all that. You're pretty spry,
though.
Buffy: What do you want?
Angel: The same thing you do.
Buffy: Okay. What do I want?
Angel: To kill them. To kill them all.
Buffy: Sorry, that's incorrectàWhat I want is to be left alone!àWho are you?
Angel: Let's just say... I'm a friend.
Buffy: Yeah, well, maybe I don't want a friend.
Angel: I didn't say I was yours.
***
Angel: Look, I don't wanna get you in any more trouble...
Buffy: And I don't wanna get you deadà So, uh, oh... two of us, one bed.
That doesn't work. Um, why don't you take the bed? Y'know, you're wounded...
Angel: I'll take the floor.
Buffy: Uh, no, that's not...
Angel: Oh, believe me, I've had worse.
Angel: Y-you even look pretty when you go to sleep.
Buffy: Well, when I wake up it's an entirely different story.
Buffy: Here. Sleep tight.
Buffy: Angel?
Angel: Hm?
Buffy: Do you snore?
Angel: I don't know. It's been a long time since anybody's been in a
position to let me know.
***
Buffy: I just wanted to be a real girl for once. The kind of fancy girl you
liked when you were my age.
Angel: Oh, ho.
Buffy: What?
Angel: I hated the girls back then. Especially the noble women.
Buffy: You did.
Angel: They were just incredibly dull. Simpering morons, a lot of
them. I always wished I could meet someone... exciting. Interesting.
Buffy: Really? Interesting how?
Angel: You know how.
Buffy: Still, I had a really hard day. You should probably tell me.
Angel: You're right. I should.
Buffy: Definitely.
***
Angel: When was the last time you put on your skates?
Buffy: About a couple of hundred demons ago.
Angel: There's a rink out past route 17, it's... closed on Tuesdays.
Buffy: Tomorrow's Tuesday.
Angel: I know.
***
Angel: Are you okay?
Buffy: What about you? That cut!
Angel: Forget about me. This is bad, Buffy. We gotta get you outta here.
Buffy: What, you mean hide?
Angel: Let's just get you someplace safe!
Buffy: No! Your eye!
She reaches back up to him and he shakes her off.
Buffy: Hey! Don't be a baby. I'm not gonna hurt you.
Angel: It's not that. I...
Buffy: What?
Angel: You shouldn't have to touch me when I'm like this.
Buffy: Oh. I didn't even notice.
***
Buffy: You almost went away today.
Angel: We both did.
Buffy: Angel... I feel like I lost you... You're right, though. We can't be
sure of anything.
Angel: Shhh. I...
Buffy: You what?
Angel: I love you. I try not to, but I can't stop.
Buffy: Me, me, too. I can't either.
Angel: Buffy, maybe we shouldn't...
Buffy: Don't. Just kiss meà.
***
Buffy: Angel, I donÆt want to let you go.
Angel: I donÆt want to let you go either. Buffy, I love you. IÆve loved you
since the day I met you. I donÆt regret one bit this decision, or any decision
youÆve made for that matter.
Buffy: I love you too. I-
Angel: Kiss meàdonÆt say goodbye.

Star-CrossÆd Lovers (5/5 Epilogue)
Giles had woken up just in time to hear the gun shot. He had run from Mrs.
SummerÆs room, where he had been laid, to BuffyÆs room. He was shocked at the
sight in front of him. A dead, bloody Buffy lay on Angel, who had her blood
splattered on his face. He noticed the gun in BuffyÆs hand, and was utterly
confused. He then remembered his death and was even more perplexed.
Mrs. SummerÆs, Xander, Willow, and Cordelia ran into the room. Cordelia and
Mrs. SummerÆs shrieked, Willow cried, Xander was in shock.
Finally, Giles noticed the note on the desk. He read it silently to himself.
Dear Giles,
I know that you are probably confused and upset; and you every reason to
be. IÆll try to explain this as best I can:
Angelus murdered everyone: you, Willow, Xander, Cordelia, and Mom. I found
something Willow had been working on on her computer: the Restoration
Ceremony. I permormed it and AngelÆs soul was not only returned, but the demon
left.
He had a choice though, to either be human for the rest of his life, or to
have all that he killed since the last full moon live and he perish. He chose
to die.
I didnÆt know how to go on without him. I couldnÆt go on without him. IÆm
with him now, in heaven. IÆm sorry, Giles. Sorry I couldnÆt say goodbye; sorry
that I needed to say goodbye.
Tell Mom I love her, and that Angelus killed me. Ironically, its the truth.
Tell Will and Xander that they were terrific friends, and I appreciated that.
I love you, and IÆll never forget you. Have a great life, and make sure to
take care of the new Slayer just as well as you did me.
- -Buffy
***
As it was supposed to happen, Kendra took over as Slayer. Giles, not needing
to be a Watcher, left for England. Xander and Cordelia were married and
divorced-twice. Willow and Oz had been married, but Oz had joined the army and
died in battle. She and Xander had gotten married later on in life and had one
child. None of them ever forgot Buffy or Angel or the Hellmouth. But, as life
went on, the pain became less.

I've been working on a Willow/Angel fic for awhile. Due to time
constraints, it's taking me much longer than I thought. I've been posting
it on the BBeta and Willfic lists, but if you would like it posted here...or
for me to send you the finished parts, I would be honored to have you read
it
Thanks for your time,

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
- -One week later-
"So Buffs, is our undead friend supposed to show up?"
Xander questioned.
Xander, Cordelia, and Buffy were sitting at one of the tables
in the Bronze, while Willow and Oz were off dancing.
Buffy broke her longing gaze off of the entrance of the Bronze
to answer Xander.
"He said he'd be here," she answered with a grin.
"Well it's good to have him back," he commented.
Buffy stared at him with a look of confusion etched upon her face.
"What? There's no more Angelus running around trying to kill us,
and it's nice to see you happy again. Therefore I can deal with
dead boy," he pointed out.
Buffy shook her head at Xander's change in attitude towards Angel,
and chuckled slightly.
"Buffy," Willow called, as she approached the table with Oz in tow.
"Look who's here," she observed, as she pointed towards the entrance.
Buffy immediately knew who Willow was talking about, so when
she turned her head to where she was looking, she wasn't surprised
to see Angel making his way towards her. A wide smile spread
across both their features when their eyes locked, and everything
around them ceased to exist.
"Hi," she greeted, when he approached the table, giving him a
loving kiss on the lips.
"Hey," he replied, while taking a seat beside Buffy, and sneaking
her hand into his.
He greeted the others, albeit awkwardly, and they returned it.
Things between the slayerettes and Angel had gotten better, but
they still felt uncomfortable around each other. Time was needed
to heal open wounds, and to regain the trust that was lost between
them when Angel reverted to his former self. However, the ties that
bind there friendship together will triumph in the end.
"Will you take a walk with me?" Angel asked Buffy after a few
moments of silence around the table.
Buffy smiled at him once again and nodded in agreement. She
stood up, and Angel helped her put on her jacket. Then he stood
as well. He headed over to the door, and waited patiently while
she talked to her friends. After Buffy said her goodbyes, she
hooked her arm through Angel's, and leaned her head against
his shoulder as the couple made their way out into the cool night air.
"I haven't seen her smile like that in a long time," Willow conceded.
"Yeah, it's good to see her happy, once again," Cordelia added.
"C'mon let's dance," Xander offered.
Oz, Willow, Xander, and Cordelia went out onto the dance floor,
and let themselves have some fun for the first time in weeks.
