Just&#8230;don&#8217;t stay out late.

It has my cell&#8230;if you can&#8217;t get through on that Wesley&#8217;s is in there and Gunn&#8217;s pager. Failing that we should be at the Bro&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Angel! I&#8217;m not dumb&#8230;I&#8217;ve looked after a kid before!&#8221; Said Xander.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Somehow, I doubt that first part very much&#8230;&#8221; Replied Angel and turned, walking off down the corridor, casting a last worried glance at his son.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Xander glanced down at the child in his arms, &#8220;Stick with me kid&#8230;&#8221; He grinned, impersonating his best Marlon Brando voice. However, Connor didn&#8217;t seem to like it&#8230;and saw fit to place a small fist into Xander&#8217;s eye with a *thwump*&#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;You can *so* tell you&#8217;re your father&#8217;s kid&#8230;&#8221; Said Xander, tears filling up his eyes. Of course&#8230;this wasn&#8217;t from Connor&#8230;he&#8217;d just got a bit of&#8230;dust or&#8230;something in them&#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">***<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Fred! You have to sit!&#8221; Said Cordelia, laughing. The others were laughing too, a very Tequila Slammer-ed Fred, had just confessed her undying love&#8230;for Jonathon&#8217;s cologne.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Don&#8217;t wanna!&#8221; Said Fred, &#8220;Want more tequila!&#8221; She lunged for the table, intent on grabbing the bottle, when Spike grabbed her round the waist,<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Not for you, luv&#8230;think you&#8217;ve had quite enough&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Mmm&#8230;vampire smell nice&#8230;&#8221; Said Fred, attaching her nose to Spike&#8217;s upper torso, &#8220;Angel smell nice&#8230;but Angel Cordelia&#8217;s! You the Slayer&#8217;s! Me want a vampire!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Cordelia blushed, Buffy blushed, Spike grinned, then Cordelia yelled, &#8220;HUH?! Angel isn&#8217;t *mine*&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Denial&#8217;s the first sign of love, Dorcelia&#8230;&#8221; Said Fred, wagging a finger and giggling at her mistake.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Great&#8230;&#8221; Said Cordelia, &#8220;I&#8217;m getting love advice from O Drunken One of Another Dimension&#8230;next I&#8217;ll be getting fashion advice from the pale, undead and creepy one&#8230;&#8221; Said the brunette, gesturing to Spike.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;HEYYY!&#8221; Said Spike indignantly, &#8220;There&#8217;s nothing wrong with my attire!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Cordelia laughed, good naturedly, &#8220;Oh please&#8230;did you have to kill an entire flock of cows to look *that* stupid?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Herd.&#8221; Replied Spike, slightly miffed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;What?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;HERD!&#8221; He repeated.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Heard what?&#8221; Cordelia raised a perfectly shaped eyebrow.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;H-E-R-D!&#8221; Yelled Spike, &#8220;HERD OF COWS&#8230;God, are you always this stupid? It&#8217;s FLOCK of SHEEP and HERD of COWS!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Boy, you really like your animals, dontcha?&#8221; Asked Fred, giggling. The others burst into laughter and Spike shook his head,<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Dunno why I bleedin&#8217; bother&#8230;&#8221; He said, rolling his eyes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A presence at his side made Spike look up.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Noticing Angel standing at the corner with the other poufy watcher, a black kid and a green demon, Spike thought he&#8217;d put a couple of theories to the test. Knowing his sire would know that he&#8217;d had sex in the past couple of days, (vampire senses left a lot to be desired) he grabbed Cordelia and pulled her close, delighting at the EXTREMELY pissed off look on Buffy&#8217;s face.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Dance with me Dorcelia&#8230;&#8221; He grinned. Of course, Fred&#8217;s scent was mingled with Buffy&#8217;s but Cordelia, being the last one against his body would make the &#8216;Green Eyed Monster&#8217; that was Angel believe he&#8217;d had sex with her.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Ew!&#8221; Cordelia pushed him away, &#8220;I think NOT&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Angel was over in a second, having spotted his Seer moments after she&#8217;d pushed Spike away. &#8220;Cordelia I&#8230;&#8221; Suddenly, he stopped. Yellow (but not quite yet green) eyes turned on Spike.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;You had sex with her, didn&#8217;t you?&#8221; He asked, a growl erupting in his throat.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Spike smirked, Angel was playing *right* into his hands, &#8220;Yeah? What of it mate&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A punch to the jaw sent Spike sprawling. The music stopped and Angel whipped round on Cordelia, &#8220;You had sex with *him*?&#8221; He asked.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Cordelia&#8217;s eyes widened, &#8220;HUH?&#8221; She stared at him incredulously, &#8220;Are you INSANE?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Spike stumbled to his feet&#8230;only to be knocked down again by a knee to the groin from Buffy. &#8220;YOU&#8217;RE TWO TIMING ME? WITH *HER*?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Wasn&#8217;t&#8230;aware&#8230;I was bloody&#8230;one timing you luv&#8230;&#8221; Choked out Spike. His plan had *so* backfired.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Cordelia however didn&#8217;t like the &#8230;with HER&#8230;thing attached to Buffy&#8217;s sentence. &#8220;And what&#8217;s THAT supposed to mean?&#8221; She asked.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Uh&#8230;can we establish the how and why for BUFFY IS JEALOUS PART?&#8221; Asked Willow, &#8220;You&#8217;re having SEX&#8230;with SPIKE?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Buffy blushed, then frowned, looking at Angel, &#8220;What&#8217;s that supposed to mean&#8230;with *HIM*?&#8221; She asked, &#8220;What&#8217;s wrong with *him*?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;What&#8217;s right with him?&#8221; Retorted Angel. &#8220;I thought *you* would know better!&#8221; He said, glaring at Cordelia.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Oh, wait a minute&#8230;&#8221; Said Buffy, &#8220;I get it&#8230;I&#8217;m only allowed to sleep with ONE of your kind, is that right?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;No!&#8221; Said Angel, &#8220;I just have trouble with dealing with the fact that *she* slept with Spike.&#8221; He jabbed a finger in Cordelia&#8217;s direction.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Oh, so it&#8217;s okay that I&#8217;m sleeping with Spike, but not her?&#8221; Asked Buffy angrily then gasped. &#8220;Uh&#8230;what I meant was&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;I AM NOT HAVING SEX WITH SPIKE!&#8221; Yelled Cordelia. &#8220;I wouldn&#8217;t touch him with HERS!&#8221; She said, pointing to Buffy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">At that, the group in the middle of the argument noticed the laughter. Wesley was clinging to Fred, tears streaming down both their cheeks laughing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And Lorne was leaning against a post, where Gunn had took up position next to Anya &#8211; all creased with laughter.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;What&#8217;s SO funny?&#8221; Asked Cordelia, frowning.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Lorne managed to control himself long enough to say, &#8220;You just got visited by the Green Eyed Demon, sweetcheeks&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Both Cordelia and Buffy glared at their counterparts, &#8220;We *so* need to talk&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And at that, Fred took it upon herself to feel particularly queasy&#8230;and then a little sick&#8230;and then a *lot* sick and then&#8230;Wesley was stroking the back of her hair softly as she vomitted relentlessly on his shoes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Ah, young love&#8230;&#8221; Smiled Lorne.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/goteamfiction.com\/index.php\/2015\/07\/01\/one-tequila-two-tequila\/\">Part 4<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Part 3 &#8211; &#8220;Six Tequila, Seven Tequila&#8230;&#8221; &#8220;No time to explain, here.&#8221; Angel held the baby away from him, Lorne stood behind him&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3301","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-completed-fics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/goteamfiction.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3301","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/goteamfiction.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/goteamfiction.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/goteamfiction.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/goteamfiction.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3301"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/goteamfiction.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3301\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/goteamfiction.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3301"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/goteamfiction.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3301"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/goteamfiction.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3301"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
