Chapter 14: Old Friends and Lovers Buffy was paralyzed, she just stared into his cold eyes that showed cruel humor for the situation. “What? No kiss for good morning? It’s been such a long time since our last meeting. Did you miss me as much as I missed you?” he asked and smiled a wolfish smile. He lifted his hand to her face and slowly traced her cheek. She shivered but she couldn’t move away. It only made him smile more widely, victoriously. “Let me tell you, miss Summers, you look ravishing”, he said and leaned into a hungry kiss but was stopped by a fist colliding to his eye. He fell back and Buffy jumped up from the bed. She took off running towards the door but was takled to the floor by Angelus. She fell hard with a loud thump and turned around to kick him off. She tried kicking and hitting him off of her but he only chuckled amused. He let out a giggle and pinned her to the floor. “I like it when you fight, you never were one to take it lying down”, he chuckled. “Don’t touch me! Let me go, Angelus!” she screamed and tried to free herself from his grip. “Not gonna happen, Buff”, he laughed. “Why are you trying to escape from me, it’s not gonna do any good, I will find you anyway, you can’t run from me. Besides, you’re not going very far in that outfit”, he continued looking down her naked body. “You won’t go far either, it’s daylight. I will not let you run freely”, she spat at him and tried to kick him between the crotch but he caught her leg. “That wasn’t nice, lover.” He wrapped her leg around his hip and leaned closer to her face. He licked her ear, her eyes closing involuntarily, and he whispered: “I’m not gonna kill you, lover. You’re too much fun alive. I see the bigger horizon these days.” “Please”, she whispered still trying to get free but her attempt wasn’t as forced as before. “I love it when you beg.” “Angelus”, Buffy whispered and looked at him like she was about to continue. He looked at her expectantly, the grin never fading. Suddenly she managed to free her other hand and hit him with every strength she had and he fell to the floor unconsious. “Good night lover”, she said and got up from the floor. She found her shirt and pants on the floor but both of them were too torn to wear again. She went to Angels closet and took out his shirt and boxers putting them on. Quickly she searched the apartment and found a pair of manacles. She returned to him with them and some clothes, she didn’t like the idea of Cordelia seeing him naked if she happened to show up. It wasn’t a time for jealousy, she knew that but she couldn’t help it. She dragged him to the bedroom and chained him to the bedpost. She knew it would hold him only for so long but it gave her enough time to find an alternative solution. With a quick glance at Angelus, she left hurrying to find some answers.
She huffed and went straight into Angel’s apartment. With careful steps she walked further in and looked around her finally entering the bedroom. Her eyes widened when she saw him chained to the bed post. “Has she completely lost her mind?!” she huffed and moved closer, starting to get the chains off. But then the thought hit her and she stopped her movements. He looked at her expectantly and she just returned the look with iritation, placing her hands on her hips. “Maybe I should let you stay right there, that would keep your hands off of each other”, she said tapping her foot to the floor. “Yeah, maybe you’re right. But I can’t help it, something happened to us”, he said and looked at Cordelia innocently. “Well, since it was Buffy who chained you, it wouldn’t be all that safe either. She could have her way with you this way”, she said and he seemed imbarrassed. “Cordelia”, he childed. “I’m going to lock her into room that has no windows”, she said under her breathe while opening the locks from the manacles. “I had the very same idea”, Angelus said and punched Cordelia so hard that she was unconsious immediately. She fell to the floor and he chuckled in his usual almost giggling way. Shaking his head and whisling a happy tune, he left the apartment.
“Angelus”, she spat but he just chuckled and leaned closer to her ear. “I never knew you had such a kinky side. If I’d known, we could have tried the chains back in the good ole Sunnydale”, he whispered seductively and her body reacted to it immediately and she hated it for being so easily manipulated. “Well, you were too busy trying to kill me and my friends.” “You have nothing to worry about, like I said before, I’m not gonna kill you. I have a whole new plan on life and for you too, lover”, he said to her ear and licked her earlobe. She squuezed her eyes shut and threw him off of her. She went into a fighting stance ready to take what ever punches he was going to pull. “Don’t touch me”, she said vehemently, she hadn’t forgotten a single moment of those months when he had been loose. “Come on, Buff, don’t be like that.” She attacked, threw punches at him but he blocked them and managed to get a hold of her arms. He threw her against the wall and planted a rough but passionate kiss to her lips. Without even noticing, she responded to it. Angelus pulled away, smiling a victorious smile and desappeared into the sewers that the office had a access to. Buffy closed her eyes and tried to collect her thoughts, this couldn’t be happening. What was she going to do? Angelus sat in a demon bar, he had wanted a drink and not one of blood. When Lilah sat on his table, he wasn’t pleased, like the soul boy, he didn’t like the lawyer either. “I know you two have a big hard on on the apocalypse but do you have a death wish too?” he asked without even looking at either of them. He just raised the glass to his lips and took a good gulp of the irish whiskey. “We want you to work with us”, Lilah said in very business like manner. “And why would I do that?” he asked already bored, he knew where it was going. “Because you want the world to end, and you can make it happen with our help. Also it was because of us that you are free again.” “No, it was because Buffy is the only one that can make the big happy for the soul boy.” “Why do you think the slayer suddenly put out? It wasn’t his usual broody charm, it was magic.” Angelus looked at her even more bored and faked a yawn. “Tell me something I don’t know.” “Come on, Angelus. We want the same thing”, she taunted him. “I never was one for team sports, my answer is no. I have my own goals and I don’t like to share”, he said and gave her a glare that told her to leave when she still could.
Buffy looked for him but there was no trace of him. That’s how she ended up in the bar that seemed to be full of demons doing karaoke, she thought there was nothing that could surprise her anymore but then she saw what the host was wearing. She was feeling gloomy and sipping at her drink, that happened to be whiskey because it reminded her of Angel, not because she liked it. “What’s a pretty girl like you drinking whiskey all by her lonesome”, came a sweet voice from behind her. She turned to look at the man, who she noted was a good looking guy, and send a glare at his way. “I’m not on the mood for sweet talk”, she said and turned back to her drink. Lindsay smiled and sat next to her. He looked at her up and down, appresiating the view, her clothing was sexy since she had to borrow clothes from Cordelia. “Keep your tongue in your mouth, I happen to have a very jealous boyfriend and he doesn’t like to share”, Buffy said without even looking at him, sure he was good looking but he was starting to annoy her, and not in the good way like Angel had back in the day. “Lady should never drink alone.” “Well, I’m not here for the company. Leave me alone before I stake your ass”, she threatened. “I’m not a vampire”, he said smiling. “I know”, she stated and gave him a look that told him to leave. He sighed in defeat, it wasn’t many times that he had been turned down. He left but didn’t get far when he was grabbed on the street and tossed against the wall. He was faced with a vamped out and growling face of Angel. But this wasn’t Angel, it was Angelus and he had a crazy jealous gleam in his eyes. “You are playing with fire, Linds”, he growled and tightened his hold on his neck. He was gasping for air and slowly starting to panic, this wasn’t what he had been planning.
“She is mine. You stay away from her. If I find out you have even looked at her, even fanticiest about her, I will find you and you will wish I had killed you right now”, he ground out spitting every word out and it left no question in his mind that he would do it. Angelus let him go and stalked into the darkness, leaving Lindsay gasping for air on the ground.
