Buffy and Angel pretty much made it their nightly routine to kiss in the cemetery while she was supposed to be patrolling. Again tonight they were making out. Buffy pulled away for a second.

"Angel?"

"Yeah?"

"Tomorrow let's go to the Bronze and go dancing, for a change, it will be a lot happier than here in the cemetery."

"Sure, honey, what-ever you want."

"Great cause what I really want is to get back to kissing you."

They continued to kiss passionately. This time Buffy reaches for Angel's jacket and pushes it off his shoulders and it falls to the ground.

THE NEXT DAY AT SCHOOL IN THE LIBRARY

"Buffy, I suspect that patrolling last night went well," Giles questioned

"Yeah fine it's just that it has been really quiet lately."

"Oh perhaps Spike and Drucilla are up too something"?

"Maybe."

Buffy and Willow left the library.

"So Buffy has it really been quiet lately or has Angel just been keeping you really busy"? Willow asked.

"Willow I'm shocked that you even suspected that," Buffy said sarcastically.

"Buff, is that all you and Angel ever do?"

"No actually Angel and I are bronzers tonight."

"So you are going for the slight change of scenery for you too huh?" Willow asked

"Uh-huh"

AT THE BONZE

Buffy was waiting for Angel at the bronze and they started too play inthe arms of an Angel (by Sarah McLachlan). Then as if by a miracle Angel chose that moment to enter the room.

"May I have this dance"? Angel asked politely

"Why certainly kind sir"

Angel led Buffy to the dance floor. Buffy wrapped her arms around Angel's neck and he put his arms around her waist. Buffy pulled Angel as closely as she possibly could get to her. They started to move slowly to the music.

"I-I love you," Angel whispered into Buffy ear while they continued to dance.

"Me-me too, god I love you more than any thing else in the world."

After that they were both just silent as they continued to dance. At around 11 o'clock they realized that it was getting late and that they should probably should go because she still had to patrol so they left and they started to kiss again. Angel deepened the kiss. Buffy pulled off Angel's jacket and he took off hers. She started to unbutton his shirt then she stopped about half way. Angel slipped his hand up the back of her shirt and started to massage her back. They continued on for about 45 minutes.

"Buffy, maybe you should get home," Angel said

"You're right considering the fact that I have school tomorrow, but I want to stay here with you, honey."

"Mmm, me too but you have to go home."

"Fine, I'll se you again tonight right honey?"

"Or when-ever you want."

"O.K., bye," Buffy said.

"Well Buff, do you want me to walk you home?"

"Of course I do."

With that she held out her hand and Angel kissed it and then they walked hand in hand down the streets of Sunnydale until they reached her house.

"Well as you already know this is my stop, unfortunately."

Then Angel gave Buffy a good night kiss and she went up to bed and went to sleep.

THE NEXT DAY AT SCHOOL

Buffy was with Willow and they were eating lunch

"So Buff, how did your date with Angel go last night?"

"It was amazing, as usual, Will I think that I am ready to you know."

"Buffy are you sure that you are ready, I mean it is a big decision, but it is what you want to do."

"Well I think I want to but to act on want could be wrong, but to not act on want what if I never feel this way again"?

"Carpe Dium, you told me that once."

"Yeah, but it will change everything."

"Well it is your decision, I mean I know that you love him a lot and he loves you but it is what you feel comfortable with".

"Thanks Will, I think that we are going to you know seize the moment but it all depends, I need a little while to think".

All through all her classes, her training session with Giles, while at the Bronze with her friends, no answer came to her. She was suppose to meet Angel at the graveyard but she wanted to see him now so she went over to his apartment.

"Angel, hi".

"Hey whatz up? I thought that we were going to meet at the cemetery," Angel said.

"Well I wanted to see you know before we left."

"O.K. well I'm here."

Buffy smiled and grabbed his shirt and pulled him in for a kiss. It was final she decided that she was ready. She started to pull at the material of his white cotton T-shirt and broke the kiss just to pull it over his head.

"Buffy are you sure, I mean maybe we shouldn't".

"Don't just kiss me".

Buffy was sure than more than anything else in her life. This time it was Angel's turn to take off her shirt. He managed to pull her tank-top over her head. Buffy and Angel made love. Later Buffy woke up and found that Angel was already awake.

"Hey there sleepy head," Angel said.

"Hey," Buffy said with a huge smile on her face, "what time is it?"

Angel glanced at the alarm clock over on the nightstand.

"3 o'clock in the morning," Angel answered.

"Oh plenty of time before school starts but I have to leave so that in the morning it actually looks like I slept there all night."

"You could stay here, I'll turn the lights off so that you can sleep."

"Sure, that is an offer that I can't refuse."

Angel got up, turned out the lights and slipped back under the covers.

"Good night, honey," Buffy whispered.

"Night."

Buffy laid her head on Angel's chest and fell asleep. Angel couldn't sleep though he was caught in deep thoughts of Buffy, that she trusted him enough to sleep in his arms, that she loved him enough that she had given herself to him. After long hours of worry and contentment he had managed to fall asleep. At around 6 o'clock Buffy woke up and realized that she wasn't at home she was at Angel's. Buffy smiled as the thoughts of what happened filled her mind. She glanced over at the alarm clock it was 5:50, she knew how to go home so she got up, got dressed and ready she realized that she couldn't leave without saying good bye to Angel but she didn't want o wake him up. She decided to kiss him. Angel deepened it although he was still asleep, but then he woke up completely.

"That is a wake up call that I could get used to," Angel said.

'Yeah, me too."

"You have to go?" Angel asked.

"Yeah, but remember you are coming over to my house to help me study for history."

"I am?"

"Unless you don't want to and don't worry my mom will be out of town of a business trip so you don't have to worry."

"O.K. I am really looking forward to it."

"Ooo I have to go get ready for school/"

"Bye I love you," Angel said

Buffy left, went home, took a shower, got changed, did her hair and makeup and got ready for school.

AT SCHOOL

Before the bell Buffy and Willow were talking in the quad.

"You didn't," Willow said surprised.

"I did a lot of thinking, I decided it was time, besides, I love Angel and it would have eventually happened."

"Yeah, so how was it? I mean do you feel any different?" Willow asked

"It was amazing, and I do feel different but I can't explain it, anyways Angel's coming by tonight to help me study for the big history test tomorrow."

"That is so sweet of him."

"Well ya, but I have a question, am I suppose to act different around him now?"

"I don't think so."

"O.K. well you swear not to tell anyone, right Will."

"Of course Buffy, yeah but I think that I want to tell Giles, see his reaction, it would be quite funny, you know."

"Ha Ha!"

"I'm just kidding."

"Yeah Giles wouldn't be someone I would like to see react to, it wouldn't be a pretty picture."

The bell rang

"Well there is the bell we had better get going to class," Willow said.

"I'll see ya later, bye."

The door bell rang.

"Angel, ya know, you don't have to ring," Buffy said.

"Oh well, so the study thing."

"Right, well we could get setup on the couch, if you want."

"Anywhere is fine by me."

They sat down on the couch and got all of Buffy's text books set up.

"I've got a way to study, I'll ask you questions and when ever you get an answer right I give you a kiss," Angel said.

"I like that plan, you know what? You just know how to motivate me."

Angel picked up her manual and started to ask her questions and every time she got a good answer he kissed her. Finally after two hours of studying Buffy decided to take a break, she leaned down and kissed Angel very deeply. Angel pulled back.

"Hey, you didn't answer any questions," Angel said in a playful tone.

"I want to take a break, we have been studying for what like two hours," Buffy said. "Why don't we don't we shut all the drapes and you could stay here all day tomorrow, it is a Friday so–" Buffy got cut of by Angel.

"Buffy your mom."

"Is out of town, remember."

Buffy got up closed all the drapes and went back to the couch.

"Anyways as I was saying before I was so rudely interrupted, I have school, but I only have to go for my history test and then I could skip all the rest of my periods."

"Buffy, I don't want to get you into any trouble," Angel said.

"How sweet, I won't get into any trouble."

They started to make out and then they decided that was enough studying for a while and it was time for a nap. They pushed all the books of the couch and they laid down. They lied down and Buffy rested her head on Angel's chest and they both fell asleep shortly after wards.

Cut to the Sunnydale train station

Joyce was walking to her car, she was really mad that they had decided to cancel the trip. So she started home. When she got there, she walked inside and saw all of Buffy's books on the floor then she looked up and saw her on the couch sleeping. She wasn't alone though, she was with someone, then she recognized him, it was that boy that she met a long time ago. Why was he with her daughter? She was going to wake them up but she was really tired and Buffy looked so peaceful she decided that she would have to talk to her tomorrow. Right now, she was going up to bed. She would have to talk to Buffy in the morning. At 6 o'clock the next morning Joyce got up and went down stairs, went over to the couch it was time to wake Buffy up and talk to her.

"Buffy, Buffy, wake up you have to get ready for school," Joyce said.

Buffy woke up and looked around half asleep and realized her mom and Angel, *Oh no this isn't good*

"Mom, goodmorning," Buffy said sheepishly.

"Well perhaps you would like to explain this"?

"Well last night Angel came over to help me study for my history test today, we took a break after about two hours and well I guess that we must have fallen asleep," Buffy answered actually telling the truth for the most part.

"Well, you had better wake him up, get ready for school and explain to me more about the situation at breakfast."

Joice left the living room and went to the kitchen and started to make pancakes for them to eat. Buffy woke up Angel the same way that she did last time. She bent over and started to kiss him, this time he woke up instantly. They just continued on for a while when Buffy mom chose that moment to step into the room looking completely shocked.

"Buffy," she screamed sounding angry

"Mom."

"Go upstairs and get ready, we will just have more to talk about during breakfast."

Buffy went upstairs and Angel followed her. Joyce went into the kitchen and continued making breakfast, she would have a lot to talk about with her daughter, she wasn't exactly sure where to start.

"Buffy I thought that you said that your mom was out of town," Angel said.

"She said that she would be I don't know why she is here but I do know that I will have a lot of explaining to do, and unfortunately for you ya can't bail because it is kind of sunny outside."

"I wouldn't least you to face your mom alone, even if I could bail."

"Awe, that's so sweet, but I have to change so do you want to pick an outfit out for me"?

Angel searched Buffy's and picked out a pair of black leather pants and a plain black tank top.

"Figures," was all that Buffy could say in his choice of style

Buffy got changed and Angel didn't bother to turn around considering the fact that he had already seen her. Buffy brushed her teeth, did her hair and her makeup all in about 20 minutes. Then she was ready. Now it was time to eat breakfast and face her mom.

"Angel you can eat human food right? I just want you to look normal."

"I can eat."

They walked downstairs in the kitchen and sat down. Just then Joyce entered with pancakes. Finally she broke the silence.

"So Buffy, what is the deal are you two going out?"

"Well ya, but he did come over last night to help me study," Buffy answered

"All right, um, Angel just exactly how old are you"?

"Um 21, I just turned 21," Angel lied

"Buffy you're not even 17 yet and he is 21, don't you think that there is a big age difference between the two of you?"

"Mom I love him and I don't care if he were 242 years old I would still love him."

"Look miss Summers, I realize that the age difference thing bothers you but don't worry I would never push Buffy into anything that she didn't want to do," Angel replied.

"That reminds me you two seem to have a hands on sort of relationship so I have a question, have you two slept together?"

"Mom," Buffy yelled. "Of course not!" Buffy lied hoping that she wouldbelieve her.

"O.K. then, so how long exactly have you two been going out behind my back?"

"Well we first met when I first came to Sunnydale and we have been going out on and off since around the time you first met him and we have been going steady since around Halloween," Buffy replied.

"Oh well Angel you seem like a nice guy, I'll expect to see you sometime soon for dinner to get to know you better, but right now Buffy has to leave for school so good bye"..

Buffy and Angel went upstairs.

"Hon, I'll come back home right after my history test, my mom should be at work, I hope anyways, you could hang out in my room or any where in my house just do me a favor, would? Don't make it look like you read my diary," Buffy said "Oh come on it was a joke."

"Yeah, okay."

"Hello, earth to Angel, what is wrong? Sorry that you had to deal with my mom."

"That is okay."

Buffy skipped down the hall and hopped in the car then her mom drove her to school.

"Honey, I think that I like Angel, he is kind and polite, but I still thought that you wouldn't be all over him, like you were this morning, I'm just afraid that it will lead to more if it hasn't already I mean you are 16 and you have plenty of time before you are ready to have sex."

"Mom, I'm not going to just because I have a boyfriend and am in love doesn't mean that I will just go and jump in bed with him."

"Good, well here we are, good luck on your big history test."

"Thanks bye."

Just before history she was talking to Willow.

"So Buff, how did studying with Angel go?"

"Great, it was actually fun accept we took a break and we fell asleep on the couch and the next morning my mom saw us and started to ask us loads of questions half of which I had to lie about."

The bell rang and she had to go to history class and took a test. Afterwards she ran home because she wanted to see Angel so much. She went to her room first to check there. He was lying down on the floor reading one of her cheesy books from when she was 10. He sensed her presence and turned around and looked up at her.

"Well that was a very odd book."

"That bored huh?"

"Buffy I don't want to be getting you into any trouble for skipping school, doesn't your principal already hate you?"

Buffy ignored what he said, she grabbed him by the shirt and grabbed him by the shirt and pulled him in for a kiss, she unbuttoned his shirt and dragged closer to the bed, he too started to undress her and they did it again. A couple of hours later Buffy woke up and realized that her mom would be home soon. She woke up Angel and they both got dressed, it was still light outside so Angel couldn't leave.

"That was amazing," Buffy said.

"Yeah I will have to agree with you on that."

"You know what, now that are relationship is where it is we have to start being careful about not getting caught, I getting caught twice in one day by my mom is not a good thing, What if she caught us doing more. Oh and I promised Giles that I would check in with him at 7 o'clock, he will probably want me to go patrolling want to come with me?"

"Of course I do."

"Goodie, and also I feel guilty I'm never spending any time with Willow and Xander and I think that I should, so that means bronzing tonight you could come with me, but not as my date but as my friend."

"Sure, if you want me too."

"Of course I want you too."

"I love you so much," Angel said.

"I love you too."

At the library Angel was with Buffy while Giles was talking to Buffy.Willow was there because she and Giles had been working on a spell to help her learn how to use her magic more efficiently. Giles had told Buffy to go patrolling so she listened to him and went, but before she left she told Willow to bring Xander with her and meet them at the Bronze. At the cemetery Buffy and Angel were so into kissing that they didn't notice the vamp that came up behind them and grabbed her away from Angel and threw them on the ground.

"Hey do you mind I was enjoying my time with my boyfriend." She plunged the stake into his heart and he exploded into dust.

Buffy and Angel went back to kissing hoping not to get interrupted again. About an hour later they went to the Bronze, they were now uncoupled and they hung and danced with Xander and Willow. Buffy went straight up to bed and went to sleep, she was exhausted. And as he did almost every night Angel was at Buffy's window sill jut watching her sleep admiring. He was so happy that she was part of his life. Buffy woke up the next morning and passed by her mom without bothering to explain to her where she was going and she fled to Angel's apartment hoping to have a blast. She woke him up and told him that he was coming shopping with him so that he could get a new wardrobe. He was against it but then gave in when Buffy promised to make up for it in the change rooms. They were both very happy with where their relationship was getting at. and they were anxious to see what it still had in store for them.
