Chapter 3: Took You Long Enough

~~~~~~~

Angel entered the club where Venus worked. The place was fairly large; it had been converted to a dance club from an old warehouse. It was on the very edge of the town of Myrtle Beach so the owners had named it ‘The Edge’. Not very original but clever.

He had talked with Dru for an hour then sent her to find Spike so he could go talk to Venus. She had left for the club at 8 and her shift didn’t s unt until 10. His eyes surveyed the packed dive until he spotted her. She was in the DJ booth talking to the guy whose shift it was. After a moment her head came up and their eyes met, she smiled and he motioned for her to come and join him. She nodded then began to make her way through the crowd until she was next to him.

She took his hand and led him toward the back of the club then through a door. She shut it behind them and he found that the office like space was soundproof.

“You okay?” He asked.

“Yeah, I just feel stupid. I shouldn’t let him get to me so easily.”

“It’s not your fault. Spike’s an ass, he gets to everyone.”

She smiled at that. “True.”

“So, I guess you have a little under an hour before you have to start working, right?” He asked turning to lock the bolt on the door.

She smirked and nodded. “Whatever shall we do to pass the time?”

“I have a few ideas.” He purred moving to her and taking her face in his hands.

“Show me.”

His hands slid down her cheeks and he tilted her head back, Angel moved his lips to her neck and kissed and nipped the smooth surface. Venus’ hands went to his shirt and ripped it open sending buttons flying everywhere.

“Hey.” He protested weakly, pulling piece after delicious piece of flesh into his mouth.

“I threw one of yours in my bag by mistake earlier.” She mumbled as her own mouth dipped to caress his now bare shoulder.

He growled as she bit into the skin none too gently. She just laughed.

“Hurry, Angel. Please. I need you now.” She begged as his lips moved lower to tease the cleavage peeking out above her shirt.

Venus pushed him until his back hit a wall. Angel spun them so she was against the hard surface then moved his hands to the fly of her jeans. He quickly undid the button and zipper, she mimicked the movements quickly on his pants.

“We match.” Venus giggled when she realized neither were wearing underwear.

“Good.” He said with a smirk as his hands moved to cup her ass. He lifted her and her long legs went around his waist.

“Now, Angel. Now.” She begged again.

He obliged by driving his cock into her. From what Angel had gathered Venus and the other him made love often but she was so tight his eyes crossed.

“So hot.” He murmured. “Soht.”ht.”

“Gotta love those kegal exercises.” She panted. Her hands moved to his shoulders and she lifted herself up until only the tip of his rigid cock remained inside of her. Then she tightened her inner muscles and forced herself back down. They both moaned. Angel took over from there. He wrapped his hands around her tiny waist and moved her in a fast hard rhythm.

“Yes, Angel. Oh, yes, please, harder, faster. ANGEL!” She babbled pushing against him and dragging her short nails down his back. Then she threw her head back, banging it off the wall and shrieked. Her pussy clenched him almost painfully and he followed her over the edge. As he came down his knees buckled and he slid to the floor, still inside Venus. They sat there for a moment, Venus’ head resting against his neck. Angel was about to get up when he felt Venus lick his neck and wiggle in his lap.

“Again?” He asked.

She laughed and wiggled again.

He pushed her down until she was on her back and began to move in her again, this time the lovemaking was slow and tender. This time when Venus came she gasped softly and murmured his name like a prayer, which sent him spiraling after her.

“At least we didn’t crack the wall this time.” She said as they both got up and readjusted their clothes.

Angel arched an eyebrow but knew he couldn’t comment. He watched as she stretched and smiled at him.

“You’re late.” Angel said pointing to the clock on the desk.

“Shit! It’s 10:15! Oh well, it was worth it.” She said moving to him and kissing him soundly then she quickly tossed Angel a shirt from her bag and disappeared out the door.

The next evening Venus was a lot calmer when Spike and Dru showed up. It was 8 o’clock and Darla and Lindsey were due any minute.

The newly wed couple didn’t keep them waiting long.

Angel, Venus, Spike, Dru, Whistler, Jay, and Doyle were all waiting on the porch when Lindsey’s red Ford Explorer pulled up in front of the house.

“What a group.” Darla said with a smile as she got out.

“Nice to see you too.” Spike said sarcastically.

“Oh, shut up and come here.” Darla said holding her arms out. Spike moved down the front steps and into her arms.

“You look good. Humanity agrees with you.” Drusilla said joining them.

“No, I agree with her.” Lindsey said arrogantly as he appeared from around the vehicle.

Darla just rolled her eyes.

The lawyer moved to his wife and put an arm around her shoulders as the rest of the group came down to meet them.

“Oh god Venus, you grew up.” Darla said moving to hug the girl.

“It happens.” Venus said returning the embrace, after they broke apart she turned to Lindsey. “So, how’s married life?”

“Couldn’t be better.” Lindsey said sincerely.

The new arrivals greeted everyone then moved inside.

“How’s Boston?” Doyle asked once they were all seated in the living room.

“Good. I like there.” Darla said and her husband nodded.

They talked for a while but the peace was broken as Doyle and Jay began bickering about something.

“Okay! That is it! I’ve had it.” Venus shouted standing up. “You two are crazy in love with each other. Now, the rest of us are going to leave for a while and we’re not talking to either of you till you both admit it to each other and yourselves.” Then she stormed out of the house and the others could do little but follow.

Once everyone was out side she told them to go around the back and chill out on the patio then she grabbed Angel’s hand and pulled him onto the porch and to the side of the living room window.

The window was open so it was easy to hear them.

“Is it true?” Doyle asked.

“Why don’t you tell me?” Jay retorted.

The Irishman sighed and sat down on the couch. He ran his hand through his hair then looked up at her.

“Aye. It is.”

“Really?” She asked, hope in her voice.

Doyle stood and walked over to her.

“Yes, Jay. I’ve loved you since the first moment I saw you.” He said then leaned down and kissed her gently on the lips.

“Oh, Doyle. I love you too.” Jayme said and threw her arms around him.

“Well, took you long enough!” Venus shouted. Then waved at them with an evil grin through the window.


The next week was nothing short of blissful for Angel. His time was spent either bonding with Darla and Lindsey, which he surprisingly really enjoyed, hanging out with Doyle, Jay, and Venus, or making love to Venus. It had been so long since he had been truly happy he easily got used to it. It seemed too soon when Darla and her husband had to go back to Boston. The next day Whistler informed him that Buffy had arrived. The demon had made plans to meet with the slayer that night. The meeting was very brief and Angel’s heart ached when he saw his former lover. She was exactly the same in this universe. Just as beautiful, just as perfect but he knew it could never happen so he suffered in silence while Whistler discussed a few things with the girl. She wasn’t planning on staying, just passing through. Angel couldn’t help but find it ironic that that one tiny visit could have destroyed an entire world. He and Whistler escorted her to the bus station themselves that very night to ensure that the blonde slayer was safely on her way out of town.

“So, ready to go home?” Whistler asked as the bus pulled away.

“Now?” Angel asked.

“Why not? You’ve done what you came here to do.” The demon said.

The vampire nodded. “I know, I guess I just wanted to see them one more time. I mean things are so different, I love spending time with Dru, Spike’s not that bad here either, and Doyle is alive, I adore Jay and Venus…” He trailed off and his eyes darkened for a moment.

“Alright, we can go and look but the Powers don’t think it’s a good idea if you talk to them.”

“Why not?” The vampire asked.

He shrugged. “Not for me to know.”

They headed to the beach house and Whistler waited in the car while Angel crept around the side of the house, Doyle, Jay, Spike, Dru and Venus were all in the kitchen playing cards. His eyes moved from one to the other and caught on Venus. She was amazing and he didn’t want to leave but he didn’t have a choice, this wasn’t his world, but that didn’t stop him from thinking that this might be where he belonged. With one last longing gaze at the younger woman he could have very easily loved he turned around and began to go back to the car but a noise stopped him. He turned again to see Venus.

“Hey, I thought I felt you.” She said smiling.

“Hey, I…I have to go, I’ve gotta pick something up and I need to catch Whistler before he leaves.” He said quickly.

“Ok.” She said nodding then walked to him and gave him a slow tender kiss. “Have a safe trip home.”

His eyes widened and he stared at her slack jawed.

“Oh come on Angel. I’ve known ever since the first time we kissed. You think I don’t know my own lover’s touch?”

“You’re not angry or feeling guilty, I mean everything that’s happened everything we did?”

“No and No. This is obviously big, I know it’s not a coincidence that Whistler showed up the way he did and I don’t feel guilty because you’re still Angel you just don’t have the same memories that I do. No matter where you’re from, you’re still you. I look into you’re eyes and I see the same thing as when I look in MY Angel’s eyes with one exception.” She said moving forward and kissing him gently again. “In you I see a lot more pain and sadness. I guess I just hoped I could ease that a bit. At least for a while.”

“Thank you.” Angel said running the tips of his fingers dowr chr cheek.

“No, thank you. For whatever it is you did for us. You should probably go, Whistler will start having kittens if you don’t.”

With one last smile he nodded and turned to go he only got a few feet when Venus grabbed his shoulder, spun him around and crushed her lips to his in a claiming passionate kiss. She only pulled away when she had to breathe pulling him into an equally crushing hug. “Be safe Angel. I hope you can find some happiness in your world.” Withse wse words she pulled away from him, turned and ran back around the house.

Angel went back to the car and silently took his seat next to Whistler.

“Everything okay?” He asked as he drove away form the house.

Angel nodded as he brought his fingers to his lips that still tingled from Venus’ attention.

The ritual to send him home was simple, a few Latin phrases and the scattering a several herbs and he was standing in the lobby of the Hyperion.
