Spike was still chuckling as they stepped out of the elevater downstairs. Angel eyed him warally, and then called out to the girls, thier giggling could be heard half way up the elevater shaft. Suddenly the giggling stopped makeing Spike and Angel very suspicious. They slowly krept towards the living room and sneaked a look round the corner. All of them were sat with there feet up on his coffee table and were in the process of painting there nails...
"Are you two just gonna lerk there or are you gonna come in"
"Damn, busted, should of known we couldnt sneak up on the witch"
"Watch ya mouth blondie or the witch will turn you into a frog"
"Awww, princess, would you kiss me and turn me into the prince?"
"Not on your life Spikey, ewww, you`d be all slimey"
"Thanks Dru, nice to know you care"
His voice was seriouse but he was pouting in the most adorable way and a spark of amusement glinted behind eyes. Dru felt that all to familliar tightening in her belly,
(Satan, he`s gorgouse, what am I gonna do if he doesnt want me any more)
Willow had noticed Dru drifting off into space and instinctively knew what she was thinking about, she reached across Delia and squeezed Dru`s arm and gave her a "Lets talk later" look. Dru put her hand over Wills and smiled gratefully. Dru couldnt believe that she had, within about two days, grown so fond of a mortal girl, well two mortal girls, Delia was important to her too. She was glad she`d come here, she thought maybe they`d never let her in but they had shown forgiveing, she had been struggling with her new found sanity, she hadnt had a sane thought in over a hundred years and it was difficult to grasp. Angel was an anigma, as Angelus he had made her insane, and as Angel with a soul she had dispised him, but as it turned out Spike and she were still his favourite childre, she found herself likeing him alot, but not in the way that insane Dru and liked Angelus, she loved him the way a daughter loved a father, which, technically they were. The half breed Doyle was fun too, he drank to much, spent money he didnt have and had a wicked sense of humour, she was fast falling in love with this new family and she hoped they liked haveing her here too, she hadnt had a family to be proud of in centuries.
Angel studied Drusilla, she had a thoughtful look on her face and he thought he saw the slightest hint of sadness behind her eyes. That was strange too, being able to look in her eyes and see someing other than madness and dispair. He wasnt proud of anything he`d done as Angelus, apart from turning these two beautiful childre of his, and now they were a family again, along with the others, he was for once happy. He had his love by his side, firey and gorgouse, and his childre working with him, and his best friends aswell. A family, at last a family to love and to cherish, he didnt deserve it but he sure as hell wasnt going to take it for granted, he was truelly blessed, and for someone with his track record that was a miracle.
Delia decided to go upstairs and talk to her errent boyfriend, keep him company, it wasnt fair him haveing to be stuck up there on his own, she couldnt believe how lucky she was, she`d finally gotten off her ass and told him how she felt and he had felt the same, she`d hoped, but it had never been the same as actually knowing that he loved her too, now all they had to do was wait for Dru and Spike to sort out thier differences and everyone would have someone of thier own to love. They all deserved it. She just hoped those two sorted it out soon, she knew Dru would go nuts again if they didnt, and it had been hell haveing to watch her two best friends do the same thing, avoid the issue, maybe she`d get to match make after all.
