PART 3
Willow watched as Angel rinsed off the last of the dishes. He wouldn't allow her to move from the table to help him so she was stuck admiring his backside. Not that she minded really. After all it was a great backside, Willow thought with a grin.
"How's your head?" Angel asked, wiping his hands on the dishrag.
"Um well it hurts, but not really that bad. Just a slight headache."
"Do you want to lay down? Take a nap maybe?" Angel questioned with concern
Willow nodded slightly and let him lead her back into the bedroom.
After settling her in the comfortable queen sized bed, Angel made to move into the living room.
Should she ask? She didn't want to be left alone. Although, the thought of sleeping with him, in the same bed, caused her to have mixed feelings. They wouldn't do anything. Just sleep.
"Angel?"
"Yes?" He said, sitting on the side of the bed.
"Will you stay with me? Just to sleep…"
Angel looked at her and knew he couldn't refuse her. "Alright." He said, reaching down to remove his shoes.
Willow watched in surprise as he stood up and removed his shirt, leaving his white tee on. He was undressing? *Oh boy...* Willow thought. Making his way to the other side of the bed he laid down on top of the covers. Willow moved closer to him and reached out for his hand.
"I really do love you."
"And I you." Angel said, pulling their hands up to place a light kiss on the back of hers.
Willow lay there in the dark, thoughts running threw her mind. This was really sudden. Did he feel the same way for her? Sure he said he loved her, but did he *really* love her? Did he love her like she loved him? What if he realized that he loved her as a fri She She knew, logically that Angel loved her but she felt so insecure about it all. Having no idea what to expect out of a relationship, this was all new to her.
"Angel what are we?"
"What?"
"I mean, are we dating now or is this just something for now?" Willow asked, biting her bottom lip nervously.
Angel sighed softly. He knew this was all new to her. After all, she'd never had a boyfriend or anything that even came close to resembling a relationship before. He just wished she would take his word. He didn't know how to explain his feelings for her. He knew he loved her. She was his everything now. He was just never very good at sharing his feelings before. He'd try though, he'd try for her.
"Well, I'd like to date. I was serious when I said I loved you, and have loved you from the first moment I saw you. It just took awhile to understand the feelings I was having for you. I think we can make this work. I know it seems like this just came out of the blue, but I really believe this is meant to be."
Willow smiled and nodded. "So do I."
Angel quickly slipped under the covers and pulled her close. Placing a chaste kiss on her lips he told her to go to sleep.
Willow sighed and snuggled close to him. It was hard to imagine that just yesterday they had sat on his couch watching movies and talking like best friends. How was it that they were as close as they were now? It seemed so right, so perfect. She couldn't be happier. This had to be the happiest she'd ever been. She had a boyfriend! Willow smiled at that thought. This was just too much. Not only did she have a boyfriend she had a gorgeous boyfriend, who loved her and wasn't afraid to show it. Yes, this was perfect.
Angel smiled slightly to himself as he saw her smile in the darkness. She was happy, happy in the arms of a monster nonetheless. Did she realize that? Had she thought of what that would mean? There would be no afternoon picnics or watching the sunrise after making love all night. No evening walks on the beach as the sunset. No children for her to love and take care of. Well, that wasn't exactly true. There were ways for her to have children. They just wouldn't be by him. Now that was a depressing thought. She wouldn't do that. But did she realize all she was giving up in order to be with him, a vampire. As he watched her silently, he realized she did. She knew all about him, knew what his life consisted of and she didn't care. If anything she loved him more for it.
Angel smiled and pulled his love closer. Things would work out for them. They were meant to be, they were soul mates and no matter what life threw at them they would overcome it. Yes, things would be just fine Angel thought as he closed his eyes and let sleep overtake him.
