Chapter 34/?
Buffy and Angel are curled up together in the bed. “Ahhuh” Buffy sighs sadly
“What’s wrong baby?” Angel asks holding her tight
She rolls over to look at him touching his face gently she answers sadly “I wish you didn’t have to leave”
“Same. I don’t want to leave but I have to.”
“I know. I’m going to miss you” she lays her head on his chest
“I’ll miss you too.” Angel runs his fingers throught her hair gently “Why don’t you come up to LA this weekend?” he suggests
“OK” she agrees then groans “Never mind I can’t. I have a test I have to cram for.”
“What class?” Angel asks
Buffy grins “Wait a minute its a history test. Who better to help me than a guy who’s lived through it”
“Sure baby I’ll help you study” Angel chuckles
“Thank you, thank you” she squeals straddling his waist she kisses him
Angel grins tangling his hands in her hair he pulls her closer “Baby if this is what I get for offering then can’t wait until I actually do.” At that moment his cell phone rings he starts to reaching for it.
“No” Buffy whimpers “Don’t answer it” she pouts grabbing his arm
Angel laughs “I have too it could be important” he kisses her then growls “What?!”
“Don’t growl at me” Cordelia snaps
“Cordelia is this important? I’m kinda busy here” Angel growls as he watches Buffy walk across the floor naked
“Yes this is important” she retorts
“What is it?” he demands
“When are you going to be back?” she asks
“Late tonight” he answers “Why?”
“Geez don’t be such a grouch I wanted to know so I wouldn’t have to wonder.”
“Thanks Cordelia for your concern. Anything else?” he growls as Buffy kisses his chest
“Um yeah I need tomorrow morning off I have an audition”
“Fine go ahead.” Angel says.
Buffy starting to get irritated grabs the phone “Cordy is this very important or are you just annoying me?”
“Hey...OK both.” Cordelia admits
Buffy giggles as Angel licks her neck. “Hang up Buffy” he growls
“Cordy he’ll call you later” Buffy says ending the call
“How rude” Cordelia complains staring at the phone
“You were the one who answered” she groans
“If I didn’t she would have kept calling” Angel responds kissing her breasts.
Buffy shivers at the feeling he invokes in her. She arches tangling her fingers into his hair. “Angel” she whimpers
Angel growls at the feeling of her wetness against his belly. He pulls her lips to his groaning her name in pleasure.
“Angel” she whimpers against his lips
“What Baby?” he demands
“Please I need...” she mewls
“Need what Baby?” he growls their eyes meet as he grasps her hips
“I need you” she begs. She moans in pleasure at the feeling of Angel thrusting into her.
Angel growls at the feeling of her inner muscles clenching around him. He watches the look of pleasure cross his beloved’s face as she sits astride him. He sits up pulling Buffy closer to his chest so she is sitting on his lap
“Angel” she cries wrapping her arms around his upper chest as she rocks against him. She digs her nails into his back hard enough to draw blood.
Angel growls at the scent of his blood while nuzzling her neck. He groans as she tightens her legs around him pulling him deeper. He growls in her ear “I love you baby”
Hearing those words Buffy climaxes sobbing his name causing Angel to follow. They lay there silent holding each other. Buffy props her chin up on his chest “When do you have to leave?” she questions softly
Angel looks at the bedside clock and back. He tucks a stray strand of hair behind her ear “I have a while yet” he smiles sadly he kisses her forehead.
“We should get some sleep. You’re gonna have a long drive back to LA” she kisses him then tucks her head under his chin. “Love you Angel” she yawns
“Love you too” he pulls the blanket up to cover them.
“Kat I’m goin’ to help Faith patrol” Spike calls from the foyer
“Kay beat someone up for me” Liena replies
“Sure luv.” Spike chuckles opening the front door to find Angel and Buffy making out on the porch. “Bloody hell you two find a room” he complains
“Shut up Blondie” Buffy retorts
“Haven’t you two shagged enough” Spike grumbles
“Go stake yourself” Buffy retorts
Spike rolls his eyes “Their in the living room” he tells them walking to the car
Buffy and Angel walk into the house finding Liena and the kids watching a movie.
Jessa looks up and grins “Angel” she greets rushing over to Angel throwing herself into his arms
“Hey Jessa” Angel laughs picking the toddler up he kisses her
“Buffy” Jessa grins holding out her arms to the blonde Slayer
Buffy takes the toddler from Angel’s arms “Hi Jess”
“Angel take it your heading back to LA” Liena states watching as Liam pulls himself along the coffee table.
“Yes. I’m leaving in a little while” Angel answers looking at Buffy as she and Jessa sit on the floor watching the movie. They chat for a while and then Angel stands and reluctantly says good-bye.
Buffy watches from the porch as Angel pulls out of the driveway. “Wanna talk about it?” Liena asks from the doorway
Buffy shrugs “What’s to talk about? I have the guy I love.”
“But?” Liena asks
Buffy walks back into the house “I dunno. I guess I’m still surprised by all that’s happened. I keep thinking that I’m going to wake up and find that the past few days were a dream.” she sighs running her hand through her hair
“Its not” Liena comforts. They return to the living room after the two put the kids they sit down and talk late into the night when Spike returns from patrolling.
Liena, Spike and the kids are playing. “Mama me” Liam demands
“Just a sec Liam” Liena calls
“MAMA” he cries insistantly
Spike turns to see what Liam wants he grins “Kat luv look” he nudges
Liena turns around and much to her surprise the nine month old is standing on his own. “Good job Liam” she applauds
“Yeah Liam” Jessa laughs
Liam claps his hands excitedly “Me, me. Mama me.” He then loses his balance and falls on his bottom. He stares at them stunned then starts to bawl. “Ow, ow” he cries
Spike picks Liam up and wipes away the infants tears “Your fine Liam” he soothes sitting back beside Liena.
Liam stops crying and smiles “Dadda” he giggles patting Spike’s face. He gives Spike a kiss. “Dadda grr” he scrunches his nose
“Daddy go grr” Jessa demands
Spike vamps momentarily causing the two kids to laugh. “You know cutie this doesn’t help a blokes confidence. Bad enough I have this bloody chip but the kids laugh.” Spike complains
“I know baby” Liena smiles leaning over she kisses him
“Hmm I’m beginning to feel better” Spike grins
Liena takes Liam from Spike’s lap “OK little man lets see if you can stand longer”
“And maybe walk” Jessa grins
“Great just what we need” Liena groans jokingly “Before we know it we’ll be chasing him around the house” She stands the baby up on his sturdy legs
Spike holds out his hands “Come on Liam” he encourages. Liam stands there holding Liena’s hands.
“Liam you can do it” Jessa proclaims
“Go to Daddy Liam” Liena states.
“Dada” Liam grins hesistantly steps forward
“Good job” Spike encourages “Come on little man. You can do it”
Liena carefully loosens Liam’s grip on her fingers. “OK Liam walk to Daddy”
Liam looks at Spike seriously as he puts forward an unsteady foot. After a few more moments Liam makes it over to Spike. “Yeah” he grins clapping his hands excitedly
“This calls for....Ice cream” Liena exclaims
Jessa jumps up and down “Ice cream. Ice Cream”
Liena laughs and picks up the toddler “Yep baby girl lets go get us some ice cream”
Spike follows them into the kitchen carrying the baby.
Chapter 35/?
“Liam come on no more” Liena calls to the birthday boy as he opens kitchen cabinets
“Mama cookie” he cries
“Not now little man” Liena sighs picking him up. “lets finish getting you dressed huh baby” she heads to his room “You get cake later” she replies putting him on the changing table
“cake?” he asks excitedly
“Yep” Liena grins
“mama kiss” Liam demands
Liena kisses him “Lets finish getting you dressed birthday boy” she grabs his overalls and shirt. After getting him dressed she grins “Finished. Now where are your socks?” she muses
“socks” Liam mimics laughing
“Yes socks.” Liena tells him. She touches his nose “What’s this?”
He frowns then says “Nose” with a smile
Liena nods “Good” she encourages. She sees his teddy and picks it up “Liam what’s this?”
“Bear” he answers “mine” he demands holding out his arms
She looks around searching for the infants shoes not finding them she yells “Will where’s Liam’s shoes?”
“Just a sec luv” Spike calls. A few moments later Spike enters the room “Here ducks” he holds out the baby shoes
“Thank you” Liena replies taking the shoes
“Tank you” Liam echoes waving his feet in the air
Liena and Spike laugh at his antics. Liena tries to put the shoes on the wiggling infant “Liam come on stay still” she sighs
“No” he states
“No?” Spike asks with a unbelieving look as he tries to hide his smile “No? Don’t say no to Mama” he growls grabbing Liam’s feet
“No” Liam cries grabbing at Spike’s hands
Liena groans “Baby stay still” she says lacing up the shoes
“Hey look Liam who’s this?” Spike asks picking up a stuffed duck
Liam turns his attention on Spike “Duckie Dada” he answers
“Done” Liena announces
Liam holds his arms out “Dada up” he demands
Spike and Liena go downstairs to get ready for Liam’s birthday party. A few hours later the guests start to arrive. Soon everyone arrives the house is loud with laughter and fun. Liena is in the kitchen listening to the commotion. Joyce enters the kitchen to find Liena staring out to space deep in thought.
“Liena?” she asks concerned “Are you all right?”
Liena brings herself to the present “Uh yeah I was just thinking” she answers “I was thinking of Jessa’s first birthday.”
“Every year I reminisce about Buffy’s first birthday. That and the night she was born.” Joyce responds
“I remember Jessa’s birthday party ended with a food fight and me disappearing on a binge for a week.” she sighs “I’m not to fond of celebrating birthdays” Liena admits
“Buffy isn’t fond of celebrating her’s either.”
“Somehow I think her next birthday will be happier.”
“Why aren’t you fond of celebrating your birthday?” Joyce asks
Liena shrugs “Mostly cause I don’t know my exact birth date. It kinda takes the fun out of celebrating when you don’t know what day you were born. That and the fact that most of my birthdays end pretty bad.”
“Kat Liam wants to open presents” Spike yells
“Coming” Liena answers she and Joyce join the others in the living room. After presents they have cake. Eventually the party ends and the guests leave. Liena looks around the living room checking out the mess left behind. She sees Jessa asleep on the couch and Liam on the floor.
Spike walks over to the couch and picks the toddler up. “Come on cutie time for you to be in bed.” Liena follows him with Liam in her arms. She heads to Liam’s room while Spike takes Jessa to her room. She carefully changes Liam into his sleeper and puts him in his crib.
She leans on the crib watching as the little boy sleeps. “Goodnight birthday boy” she says softly
Spike enters the room and stands behind her his arms around her waist. “Penny for your thoughts” he whispers huskily in her ear.
Liena pulls his arms tighter around her “Thanks baby”
“You look tired luv why don’t we go to bed” Spike suggests
She nods in agreement and follows Spike into their bedroom she opens a drawer and takes out one of Spike’s black t-shirts. Stripping down to her panties she pulls on the t-shirt. Turning around she finds Spike watching her his eyes showing concern. She crawls up to the head of the bed and curls up at his side her head on his chest.
“What’s wrong Kat?” he probes gently stroking her hair
“Dunno” she mumbles
“You been quiet all day luv” he remarks
Liena shrugs “Oh” burrowing closer to him. “Love you Will”
Spike kisses the top of her head. “I love you too Kat”
Liena closes her eyes feeling safe in Spike’s arms.
She’s running from the angry voices behind her.
“I told you no one gets out” a man calls his voice gravelly
“You belong here. Your like the rest of us. Deadly. In control.” a woman calls
The voices get louder her head and heart pound at the sounds around her. She hears gun fire and orders being issued. “I don’t want to be here” she calls “I don’t belong here anymore.”
“You enjoy killing. Hunting. You miss it” a voice whispers
“No I don’t” she denies
“Remember what its like?” a voice asks
“I don’t want to” Liena responds
“The rush you’d get after killing the target?”
“NO” she hisses
“What it felt like to pull the trigger? To watch someone being interrogated? To smell their fear?”
“No” she denies breathlessly
“No” Liena says sitting up gasping for breath
“Kat what’s wrong?” Spike asks pulling Liena against his chest. He strokes her back soothingly. “Pet tell me about it?” he asks
“I can’t” she replies
“You can tell me anything luv”
“I don’t wanna talk about it” she answers sitting up wrapping her arms around her knees
Spike sits behind her putting her arm around her he places his chin on her shoulder. “Pet when you do I’m ‘ere”
She nods holding one of his hands falling asleep in his arms.
Chapter 35
Over the next four months Spike and Angel begin to sense Liena’s emotional retreat. Not understanding why they try to get her talking but soon they realize that its useless. Soon everyone senses her change in behavior and all become concerned.
One evening the gang is out at a campus party when Buffy says “Hey Willow there’s the new Prof”
Xander then stammers “Whoa the blonde he’s with is hot”
“Xander stop drooling” Buffy says rolling her eyes
“There’s something off about them” Angel observes
“You’re right” Riley agrees “They seem almost...military”
“I’m goin’ outside” Liena mutters feeling anxious.
Spike and Angel watch her walk away both sensing her anxiety. “I’ll go keep an eye on ‘er” Spike says following Liena outside.
Liena sits under a tree her back to the building staring up at the night sky. Her senses extending to the area around her. Liena feels Spike standing beside her needing contact with him Liena tugs on his duster. Spike takes the hint slinking to the ground beside her pulling her close. Liena crawls onto his lap tucking her head into the crook of his neck. Spike runs his fingers through her hair gently “What’s wrong baby?” he whispers
Liena inhales the familiar scent “Somethings off” she breathes
“What luv?” he asks
She shrugs “I don’t know but I can feel it. Will whatever it is is bad. Really bad” she sighs
“We’ll be fine luv.” Spike kisses her head
Liena burrows closer. “I love you Will” she whispers
“Love you too pet” The two sit there under the tree Liena feeling safe in his arms. Spike nuzzles her neck “Let’s go for a walk” he says standing he places Liena on her feet.
Inside Buffy senses Angel’s remoteness plopping herself onto his lap she demands “Whatcha thinkin’?”
Angel looks at her and smiles. “Just thoughts” he answers tucking a stray strand of hair behind her ear. “What about you baby?”
Buffy lays her head on his shoulder “Oh just how glad I am that your here with me”
“Me too baby” Angel says kissing her forehead
Outside Liena and Spike are walking through the park holding hands. “Pet what’s been bothering you lately?” Spike asks
“Nothing” Liena answers her voice unemotional
Spike stops pulling Liena to face him “Luv I know somethings wrong I can feel it. Angel does too. The others sense somethiing is wrong. Talk to me”
Liena looks at him seeing the concern in his eyes. Reaching up she touches the scar above his eyebrow. “I don’t know what’s wrong. I just feel that something is and I don’t know what it is.”
“Do you feel it now?” Spike questions touching her cheek.
Liena shrugs “A little. It lessens when we’re near each other. Its stronger when we’re apart.” she steps closer to him wrapping her arms around his waist and closes her eyes as Spike pulls his duster closed holding Liena tight. “The only time I don’t feel anything but calm and love is when we’re making love.” she sighs looking up into the pale blue eyes she admits “The only time this feeling doesn’t scare me is when your inside me.”
“Are you scared right now?” Spike asks concerned
“A little”
Spike strokes her back soothingly as he looks around them he realizes that they are near the abandoned factory warehouse. “Come on luv” he says pulling away he takes her hand leading her towards the warehouse. Once inside Spike takes her into the room where they first slept together. Spike leans down kissing her gently his hands tangling in her hair. Liena slides her hands up to Spike’s shoulders tugging on the worn familiar leather of the duster. Spike untangles his hands from her hair pulling the duster off he tosses it on the bed he removes Liena’s tossing it on the bed beside his. Liena pulls his head down to hers she kisses him nipping at his bottom lip. She whimpers in protest when Spike ends the kiss. Spike hears her heart begin to pound in fear “Shh luv I’m not going anywhere” He takes her hand leading her to the bed he kneels before her unlacing her boots he pulls them off then moves to sit on the edge of the bed pulling Liena between his legs. Looking up at her he smiles faintly as he runs his thumb across her bottom lip growling as he watches her run her tongue across his thumb. Liena straddles his thighs as she kisses him threading her fingers through the hair at the nape of his neck. “How’re you feeling now Kat?” he purrs
Liena rocks her hips against his moaning as she feels his hardness. “I’ll feel better when your inside me.” Liena starts to pull his shirt off then buries her face against his neck then she looks at his face meeting his blue eyes she runs her thumb against his bottom lip. “I love you Will” she whispers kissing him
Spike runs his hands up under her shirt he pulls the shirt off her and tosses it beside his. “I love you Kat” he whispers caressing her naked breasts. He licks her nipples grazing them with his fangs.
“Will” she gasps holding his head to her breast
“You taste so good” he purrs his eyes boring into hers. Spike lays her on the bed he kisses his way down to the waist band of her jeans. He nuzzles the crotch of her jeans and growls “You smell so good” he unzips her jeans and pulls them off he smiles as he realizes she is wearing no panties. “Eager huh pet?”
“Yes” she whimpers her hands pulling him to her she looks him in the eyes “I’m always eager to have you inside me”
“I’m always eager to be in you so deep” he growls
Liena’s hands go to his jeans and she quickly unsnaps them she grins when she realizes he isn’t wearing any underwear “You thought I was eager?”
“You are pet. I just don’t have any clean boxers” Spike grins pulling his jeans off. He covers her body with his he kisses her neck as he enters her fast and hard.
“Will” she shrieks wrapping her legs around his hips
“Kat” he growls his eyes flashing
She places her hands on either side of his face so he’s looking straight at her. “Fuck me Will” she demands hoarsely tightening her legs around his hips
“Bloody hell” he growls tightening his grip on her hips as he moves faster and harder causing Liena to whimper in pleasure as she buries her face in his neck
“Harder baby make me come” she cries. Spike smirks as he stops moving bringing a whimper of displeasure from Liena. “Nooo” she cries “don’t stop” she shrieks. “Please baby make me come” she whimpers. As Spike chuckles at her begging she growls in displeasure flipping them over so Spike is on the bottom. Sitting up she places her hands on his chest leaning forward she licks his neck causing him to growl low in his throat as she sits up moving up and down gasping at the feeling of his hard cock inside of her. She leans her back her hands resting on his thighs causing her breasts to thrust forward.
Spike watches in awe as his lover moves above him. They watch each others eyes as they move. Spike’s hands run up her sides to her breasts pinching her nipples then back down to her hips. Liena then feels his hand move down her abdomen through her curls to her clit she gasps at the feeling off his cool finger stroking her. At the feeling she looks down to their joined bodies watching his fingers stroking her she digs her fingers into his thighs drawing blood as her body explodes. To keep from screaming in pleasure Liena bites down on her bottom lip hard enough to draw blood she collapses against him listening to his growling purrs of pleasure. She pulls her body up enough to lean down and kiss Spike she whispers against his lips “Thank you” Spike licks the blood off her lip sucking on her lip slightly.
“You feel better luv?” Spike asks tucking her head under his chin. He feels her nod
“Will?” she asks sleepily
“Yeah?”
Liena strokes his arm lightly “Can we stay here tonight?” she asks softly
“Luv are you sure?”
Liena nods closing her eyes tightly as a tear escapes falling on his chest “Please” she sniffles
“Sure pet. I’ll call mum and see if she can watch them. Peaches said he’s crashing with the Slayer at the apartment.” Spike strokes her back lightly
“Kay” she sighs kissing his neck she moves off him curling up at his side with her back to him
Spike breathes a deep uneeded breath as he takes his cell phone out of his duster pocket he dials the home number. “Joyce its Spike.”
“Hello Spike.” she greets
“I was wondering if you could watch them for tonight?”
“Uh sure. Is something wrong?” Joyce asks concerned
Spike looks over at the figure beside him he strokes her back comfortingly “Uh no. We just won’t be back. Kat will be back in the morning.”
“Sure I’ll watch them. I can stay until around noon. At one I have a meeting at the gallery”
“She’ll be there by noon” Spike promises “Jess has preschool at ten”
“OK be careful” Joyce says
“We will” Spike says hanging up. He pulls the blanket up over them curling his body against hers. Kissing her shoulder he wraps his arms around her waist pulling her against him. “Sweets tell me whats wrong” he whispers rubbing her abdomen soothingly
“Toby and Luca keep showing up in my dreams.”
“What do they say luv?” he questions
“My past is coming back” she whispers “I’m scared Will. What ever is coming isn’t good. It’ll destroy a lot” she cries
“What ever happens I’ll be by your side luv.” Spike promises
“You can’t Will.” she says looking up at him she strokes his face “Not with the chip still being in you. You’ll get hurt. I don’t want that to happen.”
“I’ll be fine pet. I can take care of myself.” Spike says kissing her forehead
“Not against what ever is coming” she sighs pulling his arms tighter around her “Not against my past” she closes her eyes
“Sleep luv” Spike whispers kissing her shoulder lightly. Soon he hears her breathing even out signalling that she’s asleep.
