\u201cI don\u2019t get the concept.\u201d Angel said, hand firmly intertwined with Cordy\u2019s. They were walking through the sewers, bickering and joking as usual.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt really isn\u2019t that hard, Angel.\u201d Cordelia rolled her eyes. \u201cYou just put in your card, punch in a number, punch in the amount of money you want and it\u2019ll give it to you.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIs there somebody always behind it?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo! It\u2019s a machine.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cBut\u2026why can\u2019t you just go to a bank?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cBecause! Oh my God! You are so deficient! What, 250 years, you learn everything there is to know about sex and you can\u2019t pick up on freakin\u2019 technology?\u201d<\/p>\n
Angel grinned wolfishly. \u201cWell, the sex was always more interesting.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cordelia laughed and shook her head in disbelief. \u201cMen.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOh, come on! Would you have preferred it better if I knew the highs and lows of technology or if I was fantastic in bed?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t choke on your modesty or anything.\u201d Cordelia said sarcastically.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not. I don\u2019t need to.\u201d A smirk settled on his face. \u201cAt least I don\u2019t need to according to what you said last night.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cordelia glared at him. \u201cI didn\u2019t say anything like that.\u201d<\/p>\n
Angel looked contemplative for a second. \u201cOh, that\u2019s right, I\u2019m sorry, you screamed it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cordelia whirled, striking a fist out in his direction but he caught it in his large hand, grinning like a mad man. She couldn\u2019t help but smile back.<\/p>\n
\u201cAss.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cLove you too.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cordelia felt her stomach flutter when he said that but she ignored it and pulled her fist out of his grip, turning around and walking again. He jogged up beside her and slipped his hand sneakily into hers. She bit back her smile and continued walking, joined hands swinging with each step. Suddenly, she stopped.<\/p>\n
He stopped too, looking at her, surprised by her sudden halt. \u201cCordy?\u201d<\/p>\n
She kept looking straight ahead, eyes wide, heart beating rapidly. Angel looked up to see what she was staring at. His shoulders slouched.<\/p>\n
Six vampires stood facing them, fangs bared, faces sneering, standing in a horizontal pyramid, with whom looked to be the leader in the front. Angel grumbled.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m so not in the mood for this.\u201d<\/p>\n
***<\/p>\n
Gunn replaced the broadsword into the weapon\u2019s cabinet, picking up a small knife and rubbing the cloth over its shiny surface. Cleaning weaponry relaxed him for some reason. Maybe it was to do with the fact that these weapons aided them in killing evil. And with just the swipe of a cloth, Gunn was able to erase the remnants of whatever big bad they had defeated, leaving the world without a trace of its ugly existence.<\/i><\/p>\n
He put down the cloth when he heard the shuffling of feet behind him. He turned around swiftly but there was no one there.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cHello?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Nothing. He walked into the middle of the lobby, surprised to see that it was empty. Bits and pieces of Fred\u2019s device were scattered all over the floor but the silence was ghostly. Then he heard that shuffle again and he turned around again, arms up in a defensive stance. This time he heard footsteps and he stood defiant, fists ready to tackle any attacker.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cWho\u2019s there?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n A long, long leg, covered in a deliciously tight black leather, slid out from behind the wall, feet snugly encased in four inch black high heels. The foot danced slightly, almost teasing him. Gunn raised an eyebrow.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cWho\u2019s that?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n The leg slowly revealed itself completely, along with the rest of the owner\u2019s body. Gunn followed the low riding waist line, fabric so low it exposed the pointy bones of the pelvis. Gunn swallowed. Hard. His eyes were drawn up by the mesmerising rise and fall of the owner\u2019s chest, woman\u2019s chest he noticed, as breasts heaved in a leather bikini top, barely containing them. He glanced up to the face, the beautiful face of a woman with sparkling hazel eyes.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cC\u2026Cordy?\u201d Gunn stammered.<\/em><\/p>\n Cordelia simply nodded, a small tilt of her head, seductively running her tongue over her lips and strolling towards him. Gunn put his fists down and stood up straight.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cI thought you were out.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cI came back.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cOh. Uh, Cordy\u2026w\u2026what are you doing?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n She was running her hands down his sleeves, then across his covered stomach, lifting the fabric before he could protest, feeling the warm skin underneath. Gunn sighed in pleasure before realising what he was doing and he jerked away from her, eyes widening in horror.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cWhat the fuck are you doing?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cI want you.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cW\u2026w\u2026what???\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cYou heard me. I want you up against that wall. I want you on the sofa. I don\u2019t care where or why or how, I just want you. NOW.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cC\u2026Cordelia! What the hell\u2019s the matter with you girl?\u201d Gunn stuttered, backing up slightly. The look in her eyes was one of pure hunger, hunger so real that it almost came out and bit him. But she was an actress\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cOh! Oh, I see! Yeah, very funny. Wes and Lorne put you up to this huh? Okay, alright, you got me, good, very funny, you scared me for a minute. Really.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Cordelia looked thoroughly confused for a moment before she regained her bold stance and sauntered over to him again. Gunn didn\u2019t move this time. He was so convinced it was a joke. But when she ran a soft hand over his cheek, that option went out the window.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cDon\u2019t you want me?\u201d She looked almost insecure for a moment and Gunn swallowed down the guilt. He removed her hand slowly and gave it a squeeze, using it to push her away slowly.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cC\u2026Cordy, you\u2019re a beautiful woman and I would be lying if I said I didn\u2019t think you were HOT. But\u2026you\u2019re my friend. And Angel\u2019s my friend. And he loves you too much. And I\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cBut you have a bigger axe.\u201d She raised her eyebrows suggestively. Gunn\u2019s jaw dropped.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cBut he\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t want to talk about him.\u201d She came forward and Gunn\u2019s eyes widened when he felt his back hit the wall.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cB\u2026but\u2026you and him\u2026and I don\u2019t want\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cOh, shut up.\u201d She pressed her body against his so that he was sandwiched between her and the wall. \u201cI know you want me.\u201d She licked his chin and he shivered. \u201cSo take me.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cB\u2026but\u2026anyone could walk in!\u201d He protested.<\/em><\/p>\n She grinned wickedly. \u201cSo? Let em\u2019.\u201d Then she kissed him. Kissed him so hard he felt his teeth vibrate. Gunn struggled for a moment and then gave up, pulling her closer. He kissed her back with equal fervour, switching their positions so that she was backed against the wall.<\/em><\/p>\n She pulled at his shirt, grabbing the bottom and lifting it up and over his shoulders, leaving his mouth to encase his left nipple. He moaned, writhing against her as her tongue flicked over the small bud, sending delightful tingles through his nerves and into every part of his body, especially his crotch.<\/em><\/p>\n He pulled her up and captured her lips again, the idea that anyone could walk in on them at any time exciting him even more. There was a nagging feeling that this could destroy them, destroy Angel and Cordy and their family because he had an affair with the heart.<\/em><\/p>\n But hell, he didn\u2019t initiate it.<\/em><\/p>\n He reached behind her, cupping the round globes of her ass and lifting her against him. She immediately wrapped her legs around him, groaning as she came into full contact with his hardness. His hands roamed her bare back and found the tie to the bikini, grabbing vainly at the knots, trying to undo them.<\/em><\/p>\n Suddenly she dropped her legs, pushing him away so hard that he stumbled slightly, managing to catch his balance before he tripped over. He looked up at her, eyes earlier filled with passion now tainted with confusion. Cordelia raised an elegant eyebrow and her smile was feral.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cI know what you\u2019re thinking.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Gunn gasped, jerking awake, scrambling up from the couch but tripping over his tangled feet, falling flat on his face on the lobby floor.<\/p>\n \u201cCharles!\u201d<\/p>\n He turned his head as Fred came rushing over to him, helping him up. He groaned as his jaw made a clicking sound and he clutched it in pain. He looked around, noticing that the lobby was exactly as it had been when he fell asleep.<\/p>\n Fred\u2019s device was still on the floor. Angel and Cordy were still out. Gunn looked down to find worried brown eyes looking at him through planes of glass.<\/p>\n \u201cAre you okay?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYeah, yeah girl, I\u2019m fine.\u201d He turned his face away from her, cheeks flaming red. He had been about to have sex with Cordelia. Cordelia.<\/i> The most beautiful woman in the world. Who just happened to be one of his best friends. And who just happened to be the object of the Scourge of Europe\u2019s affections.<\/p>\n Gunn swallowed guiltily. How the hell did that happen? It had seemed so real. So amazing. But to having this kind of dreams about a woman he considered a close friend was ridiculous. Sure, he was attracted to her, anyone with a penis who didn\u2019t bend in the opposite direction would be. But that didn\u2019t justify his fantasising about her.<\/p>\n He shook his head. Guilt flooded him at the risk he had been more than ready to take. Angel would\u2019ve killed him. Hell, it would have killed Angel. Gunn sighed heavily, sitting down again and resting his head in his hands, muttering quietly to himself.<\/p>\n \u201cDamn Lorne with his damn insightfulness.\u201d<\/p>\n ***<\/p>\n \u201cGuys, can we do this another time? I\u2019m really not in the mood.\u201d Angel raised his hands and looked at the vampires, smiling almost apologetically.<\/p>\n \u201cYeah, and these heels are new.\u201d Cordelia added, squeezing Angel\u2019s hand tightly. His finger moved along her palm reassuringly.<\/p>\n One of the vampires, the leader, moved forward slightly, grinning like a Cheshire cat. \u201cNo can do pal. Now why don\u2019t you piss off and let us have the fresh food?\u201d He eyes Cordelia hungrily and she gave him a repulsed look. Angel glared at the vampire.<\/p>\n \u201cShe\u2019s mine.\u201d He growled.<\/p>\n \u201cShe won\u2019t be for long.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYou obviously don\u2019t know who I am, do you?\u201d Angel rolled his eyes dramatically and sighed. This seemed to agitate the vampire and he took another step forward. Angel pushed Cordelia behind him.<\/p>\n \u201cAw come on, didn\u2019t your mother ever teach you to share?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t share.\u201d Angel ground out.<\/p>\n \u201cOh well. Too bad. We\u2019ll just have to take her for ourselves then.\u201d He clicked his fingers and Cordelia turned around, hearing something rustle behind her. Two more vampires appeared on Cordelia side and she turned around so that she was back to back with Angel.<\/p>\n \u201cEight.\u201d She whispered.<\/p>\n \u201cOh, I\u2019m so glad you\u2019re good at math.\u201d The leader grinned advancing on Angel. Angel struck out with his fist, cracking the vampires jaw and the sound rung through the sewer walls. The vampire landed on his back, groaning in agony.<\/p>\n \u201cGet them!\u201d He ordered.<\/p>\n The five vampires on Angel\u2019s side rushed at them. Angel kicked a vampire in the face at the same time as punching another. He released the stakes hidden underneath his sleeves and slammed them into another two vampires\u2019 chests. He grabbed another vampire as he came forward in a head butt and twisted his head, breaking his neck and turning him to dust.<\/p>\n Cordelia eyed the two facing her warily. One of them grinned, walking forward slowly and then abruptly stopping.<\/p>\n \u201cHey gorgeous.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI would say it back, but that would be lying.\u201d<\/p>\n The vampire growled. \u201cI will have you.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cPfft! Over my dead body!\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThat can be arranged.\u201d He lunged forward. Cordelia caught him by surprise, lashing out with her shoe. She kicked out violently, the sharp edge of her shoe slamming into the vampire\u2019s nose with such a force that he stumbled back. She kicked out again and jammed the three inch wooden heel into his chest, piercing his heart with the point. He screeched and turned into dust before her.<\/p>\n The other vampire looked at her in shock, a second before pouncing on her. Cordelia wasn\u2019t prepared this time and they both went flying to the ground, rolling around on the dirty sewer floor.<\/p>\n \u201cOh, ew!\u201d Cordelia screamed and elbowed the vamp but he wouldn\u2019t let her up. He grabbed her arms and pinned her down, Cordelia bucking her hips in order to get him off her. But his hold was strong and the hip bucking seemed to excite him.<\/p>\n \u201cIs that what you want, little girl?\u201d He ran his hand over her chest, grabbing her arms and pinning them above her head.<\/p>\n \u201cGet off me!\u201d She screamed and kicked but he was too strong. Meanwhile, Angel was slammed into a wall as three vampires surrounded him. One punched him in the gut and he bent over in pain, vamping out and jerking back up again.<\/p>\n \u201cOkay, that just pissed me off junior!\u201d He spun around and kicked the vampire in the face, backhanding another as he turned. The third lunged at him and Angel pulled out a stake, slamming it into his chest, dusting him in mid air without blinking an eye. He kicked the vampire who was down in the gut.<\/p>\n \u201cYeah, hurts, doesn\u2019t it?\u201d He pulled him up and threw him into the wall, about to jump onto the remaining vampire when he heard Cordelia scream.<\/p>\n \u201cCordy.\u201d He turned around and at the sight of the vampire astride Cordelia, rage filled him, bubbling up from his chest and into his very soul. He growled and ran, jamming a stake into the vampire\u2019s back so viciously that the vampire whimpered and then exploded into dust.<\/p>\n Cordelia looked up as the vampire who was straddling her disappeared and she was left looking at Angel\u2019s handsome face. He held out his hand and she took it, standing up and dusting off her clothes. Her shirt and pants were covered in dirt and slime and she grimaced. Angel lifted her chin, hand gently running along her face, concerned eyes locking with her own.<\/p>\n \u201cAre you okay? Did he hurt you?\u201d<\/p>\n Cordy smiled. \u201cI\u2019m fine. Did you dust the rest?\u201d<\/p>\n Angel turned around and found that the last two vampires had fled the scene. He shook his head. \u201cThey\u2019re gone.\u201d<\/p>\n Cordelia looked over his shoulder. \u201cOh well\u2026\u201d She glanced at their filthy clothes. \u201cEw. Please remind me never to take a walk in the sewers again, kay?\u201d<\/p>\n Angel looked guiltily at her, hand coming up to cup her cheek. \u201cYou belong in the sunlight.\u201d<\/p>\n Cordelia raised an eyebrow. \u201cOh, I do, do I? Cos I don\u2019t think so.\u201d She snuggled into his arms and his own came around her involuntarily. She hugged him tightly. \u201cI think I belong wherever you are. And if that\u2019s in the sewers today, that\u2019s okay. Cos tomorrow, it might just be the sunshine.\u201d<\/p>\n Angel smiled against her hair, his heart lifting. He kissed her head once and then moved his hands up to palm her face, lifting it and circling her nose with his. He kissed her softly and then smiled.<\/p>\n \u201cI love you.\u201d<\/p>\n Cordelia grinned. \u201cI love you too.\u201d<\/p>\n His face lit up and she laughed, kissing his nose once and then taking his hand. \u201cCome on, let\u2019s go get clean. I\u2019m in desperate need of a shower.\u201d<\/p>\n Angel raised his eyebrows hopefully, letting himself be pulled by her. \u201cTogether?\u201d<\/p>\n ***<\/p>\n Lorne whistled to himself as he fixed his fourth seabreeze of the afternoon, Sinatra playing along in the background. He had finally fixed that damn radio and it was playing softly, melodious music drifting around the kitchen.<\/i><\/p>\n He placed the seabreeze down and rolled up his sleeves, flexing his wrists and getting comfortable. Angel and Cordy wouldn\u2019t be back for a while and the lobby was getting dull without a drink. He lifted the glass and took another sip of the cool liquid, loving the way it rolled down his throat and soothed his entire being. He felt as though he was floating, every time he swallowed.<\/em><\/p>\n The clicking of fingers made him glance up and his eyes widened in surprise. Then in complete and utter horror.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cBrown eyes?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Cordelia was dressed in a short glittery dress that just about reached her thighs, silver sparkling against the light. Around her neck was a bright pink feather boa, fluffy and soft, curling around her throat and leaking down her side. Her earrings were large silver hoops, so huge that they came down to her shoulders. Her hair was\u2026big was putting it mildly. It was permed and curly and huge. Lorne was sure that it was at least four inches from her scalp. Her face was covered in make up, from the red lips to the mascara, to the blusher, to the eyeliner.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cC\u2026Cordy, why are you dressed like that?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n She didn\u2019t answer. Instead, she smiled and reached over, flipping the radio off with a long, elegant finger, leaving the room in silence. Then, from behind her, she pulled out a microphone. Lorne was too shocked to move or speak. Cordelia began to sing.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cThe minute you walked in the joint\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n She kicked out a leg, a long, bare leg, due to the fact that there was zero material covering it. Lorne gulped.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cI could see you were a man of distinction\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n She wandered over, hips swaying in time to her singing. Then she stopped right in front of him, placing a warm hand on his leg.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cA real big\u2026\u201d She paused and glanced down at his crotch, smirking. Lorne snapped his knees together, \u201cspender\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cW…what\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cHey big spender! Speeeeend a little tiiiiime\u2026with meeeee\u2026\u201d Her finger circled the rim of his glass, dipping in once and then bringing the wet tip up to her lips. She sucked it into her mouth, seductively, tongue rolling over the soft skin and slipping it out of her mouth with a small pop. Lorne gulped as she moved forward some more, settling the finger on his lips and blowing him a kiss.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cCordy\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cSsh.\u201d She commanded, running the finger over his lips and then up the slope of his nose and in between his eyes. Lorne felt as though he would faint from the sensation. He watched entranced as Cordelia\u2019s tongue snaked out and wet her glossy red lips, her eyes promising him something he had never even dreamt of before. He shivered as she ran her fingertip over the graceful curve of his left horn.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cSee something you like, sugar?\u201d Cordelia murmured, as his eyes fluttered shut. She traced her finger back down again, all the way down his face and neck until it landed on a shirt button. She undid the button slowly and pressed her hand to his skin. His eyes flew open.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cWhat are you doing?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cUndressing you.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Lorne snapped out of whatever trance he was in and stood up, keeping her at a distance with a raised hand. \u201cCordelia\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cHmm?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cYou\u2019re\u2026you\u2019re with Angel\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cSo?\u201d She smiled at him.<\/em><\/p>\n Lorne looked horrified. \u201cSo?! So, we can\u2019t do this\u2026as\u2026as much as I want to\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cWell, I want to, too.\u201d She interrupted him, grabbing his shirt and pulling him to her. Lorne squeaked. Cordelia ripped open his shirt, throwing the useless material to the floor. She traced the textured skin, finger running deliciously over each black bump, over crumpled green creases, over pink dusky pectorals. Lorne shuddered, and tried to push her away but found his arms betrayed him and he pulled her closer.<\/em><\/p>\n She kissed up his neck, biting down on his chin and finally finding his lips. She placed a soft kiss on his mouth and then attacked it, tongue delving in to investigate the unfamiliar skin, taste and texture. Lorne fisted his hands in her big hair, surprised that it still felt as soft as it looked originally, kissing her back and bending her over slightly, as though they were dancing.<\/em><\/p>\n When he brought her back up again, she laced her arms around his neck, one hand coming up to palm his face and then tickle his horn. Lorne chuckled and shivered, pulling her closer against him. He was backed against the fridge and she continued to kiss him, him kissing back as though his life depended on it.<\/em><\/p>\n Suddenly, she pulled away, rubbing her lips with the back of her hand and glaring at him. He stopped at her scowling face, his heart jumping in fear and guilt. Then she smirked, face slipping into an eerie, evil grin.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cI know what you\u2019re thinking.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cAargh!!\u201d Lorne jerked awake and turned swiftly, successfully toppling over the stool he was sitting on and sending him tumbling to the lobby floor. When he looked up, Gunn and Fred were looking at him as though he were mad.<\/p>\n In fact, Fred looked a little freaked. She looked over at Gunn and then at Lorne. Then back and forth between the two. Then down at herself. She shrugged.<\/p>\n \u201cI guess I\u2019m already on the floor.\u201d She mumbled.<\/p>\n Gunn looked at Lorne. \u201cYou okay?\u201d<\/p>\n Lorne glanced up nodding. He hurriedly got to his feet and put his head down on the counter again, taking a seat. He had just had a rather enjoyable fantasy about Cordelia. Brown eyes, Cordelicious, Cordelia. Angel\u2019s Cordelia. Lorne banged his head against the counter. Why him? What did he ever do?<\/p>\n Cordelia had looked amazing. She had been his dream diva\u2026that would explain why she was in his dream. He banged his head against the counter again. Guilt flooded through him, as did disturbance. Hell, if he thought green was her colour he would have bagged her a long time ago. But she was in love with Angel. She was Angel\u2019s. His head hit the counter again.<\/p>\n And he was a demon. She was a human. Sure, he was gorgeous for his kind, at least he thought so, but she had made it perfectly clear that she didn\u2019t want to look like him. And here he was fantasising about her. He banged his head against the counter and this time Gunn looked up in annoyance.<\/p>\n \u201cMan, what\u2019s the matter with you?\u201d<\/p>\n Lorne turned around and waved him away with his hand. Wesley came out of his office, looking rather scruffy and tired but everyone else suspected it was from lack of rest while researching his new tome. Not from sleep itself.<\/p>\n \u201cWas it hard?\u201d Gunn asked. Wesley\u2019s eyes widened and he jerked his head to Gunn\u2019s. \u201cW…what?\u201d<\/p>\n Gunn rolled his eyes. \u201cWas it hard? Finding this book thingy?\u201d<\/p>\n Wesley swallowed. \u201cOh. Yes. Uh, no! No, it wasn\u2019t hard. Not hard at all. In fact, anything but hard.\u201d Gunn made a weird face and Wesley ignored him, walking over to Fred\u2019s device. She grinned at him.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s a catapult.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cAah.\u201d Wesley acknowledged, smiling. \u201cLooks deadly.\u201d<\/p>\n Fred smiled at him, grateful that he was able to talk to her with ease again. If anything, she was just happy that he was on his way to forgiving himself. She\u2019d help him get there\u2026eventually.<\/p>\n Her thoughts were interrupted when the basement door opened and a very dishevelled looking Angel and Cordelia appeared, clothes slightly ripped in places and completely covered in dirt and grime. They looked like they\u2019d been rolling around in it.<\/p>\n Fred raised her eyebrows, Wesley looked suspicious, Gunn just shook his head, muttering something about bunnies, and Lorne gave them a strange look. Cordelia\u2019s jaw dropped when she received all the weird looks, immediately realising what they were thinking.<\/p>\n Her and Angel had barely been gone for a few hours. They could go without making out for that long! Well\u2026 And she most definitely would not have sex in the sewers! Cordelia smirked. That could also be debated.<\/p>\n She rolled her eyes when her friends didn\u2019t stop staring. She sighed exasperatedly, throwing up her hands and then placing them on her hips, glaring accusingly. \u201cI know what you\u2019re thinking\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n Wesley choked, coughing to relieve whatever was stuck in his throat. Gunn turned a bright red and dropped his gameboy with a clatter, fumbling for it without looking up. Lorne\u2019s seabreeze shot out through his nose, spraying everywhere. He coughed and hit his chest a few times.<\/p>\n Angels\u2019 eyes widened and he glanced at Cordelia, who was looking at the men, just as stunned as he was. He reared his gaze to Fred, who just looked confused. Cordelia opened her mouth to question their behaviour but the guys beat her to it.<\/p>\n \u201cI uh, I have to go to my\u2026office! Yes, office\u2026because there\u2019s a tome\u2026\u201d Wesley trailed off, running towards his retreat.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m just gonna\u2026go to the bathroom!\u201d Without waiting for a response, Gunn ran around the corner and slammed the bathroom door behind him.<\/p>\n \u201cI should really get back to uh, to\u2026Caritas! My club, Caritas\u2026gotta go!\u201d Lorne ran through the doors of the Hyperion, grabbing his coat on the way out without looking back, leaving a gaping Cordy, Angel and Fred staring after him. No one said anything for a moment. They were too dumbfounded to speak. Then Cordelia broke the silence.<\/p>\n \u201cWas it something I said?\u201d<\/p>\n The End<\/b><\/p>\n
