.........................................................

A/N: ‘Smile Time’ does not’t happen because I find that episode very unrealistic in the Buffy and Angel universe and it also doesn’t fit in with my story. Also I may be doing scenes from the program but I’m not doing them in the same way.

WOLFRAM AND HART, EARLY EVENING:

“This is a very bad idea” Spike said absently as he watched everyone armour themselves with weapons.

“Yeah well you try telling that to Angel because he sure as hell ain’t listening to me!” Gunn replied, hopping up on the desk next to Spike.

Spike raised his eyebrows, “I tried to earlier, but he is one stubborn bastard. I mean, he comes up with this plan about ambushing Kaden’s club and to me everything goes blank! There’s this big...hole! Where the plan is supposed to go, ya know, with a beginning, a middle and an ending but this is his plan” Spike said, dropping down from his perch, and gestured with his hands,

“Here’s the beginning, and that’s the rest!” Spike pointed to the other side of the room. Gunn chuckled in agreement, “It’s like, a plan is supposed to be something like 1, 2, 3 but he skips 2, 3 and jumps straight to 4!” Gunn cried out as him and Spike broke down into laughter.

“I understand the reason why Angel would want to get to Kaden quickly but going in there without a suitable plan is...well, I am sure we all understand the dangers that could result from that” Wesley spoke as he entered Angel’s office. Wesley watched as everyone raided Angel’s weapon cabinet with enthusiasm and sighed, Angel’s going to freak when he sees the sorry mess his office is in, Wesley thought ruefully.

“Well he ain’t listening and we have given up listening to him bitch about having to ‘Trust him’ and to ‘Be supportive’ and that ‘We can defeat Kaden’. That’s his new mantra and I’m sick of it! What happened to the ‘I’m Angel and I brood’ mantra that he had going!. I promise you, tell Angel that he hasn’t got a good enough plan...and there he is over there! Wes ask him” Gunn said, pushing Wesley in the direction of Angel.

“Angel, a word?” Wesley asked as he closed the door behind him, leaving them both outside Angel’s office.

“Sure Wes, what’s on your mind?” Angel replied curiously, glancing inconspicuously at Spike and Gunn, who were looking through the window.

“This plan, Angel. Is it exactly as you said it was, ambush Kaden and get information out of him? Because frankly if it is that, it isn’t a good enough of a plan. You need to have thought it through” Wesley asked seriously, looking annoyed as Angel patted his back and repeated his name.

“Wes, it will work. Trust me on this. I have a few ideas up my sleeve, all you need to do is be supportive. This guy is just another demon, nothing out of the ordinary. We can defeat Kaden” Angel responded calmly, walking into the office before walking back out with a sour look on his face, mumbling curses about ‘Messy employees’.

When Wesley entered the room again, Gunn and Spike stood there with their arms crossed over their chests, “He’s gone off the deep end” Wesley’s annoyed voice said as he wandered over to the weapons cabinet, leaving Spike and Gunn chuckling behind him.

WOLFRAM AND HART, SCIENCE LAB:

“Hey, where do you want me to put this” The delivery man asked as he wheeled in an old, dusty sarcophagus.

“Hm?...Oh that, you can put that over there for now. I’ll deal with it” Knox replied, grinning.

WOLFRAM AND HART, ANGEL’S APARTMENT, EVENING:

“I still don’t see why I can’t help you lot out” Spike said, pouting petulantly at Angel from the bed.

“I would love it if you could come Will. But, Kaden done something to you and still is after you and, which I am certain of, wants you for...other reasons” Angel replied, smiling half-heartedly at Spike.

“Gee, could you have picked a better time to become jealous. I was looking forward to kicking his ass! But no! Angel is jealous so Spikie must hide away from Mister Big-Man-Who-Lusts-After-Me” Spike spoke angrily, sighing as Angel grimaced at the word jealousy.

I’m not jealous!” Angel yelled indignantly before realizing what he had said. Spike’s mouth fell open as he looked at Angel incredulously.

“Not jealous? Your having a bleedin' laugh aren’t ya? If I even look at a guy with a little appreciation you step in front of me and pull the Angelus crap out. Remember that time with Knox? I shook his hand! Now lets see if I can remember what happened after that...oh yes I remember! You growled, pulled me away from him and snapped your fangs at him!” Spike shouted, watching as Angel shuffled on his feet.

“I don’t care what happened, I smelled lust” Angel said darkly, remember the look on Knox’s face, the way it brightened when they held hands. Angel shook away his thoughts,

“But we’re not talking about that! I just want to keep you safe, that’s all. I...” Go on...say it! Now’s the perfect time to tell him you love him! Damn! Why is it so hard, Angel thought sadly, “...care about you a lot Spike. I don’t want you to get hurt again” Angel finished, kneeling in front of Spike, frowning at the upset look on his face.

“Oh come on, don’t be mad Will. There will be plenty of times for you to fight Kaden, if he’s like any other demon he won’t leave us alone” Angel begged, bringing Spike into a hard embrace. Spike hugged back reassuringly but couldn’t help hope that Angel was going to say something other than ‘I care about you’ when he had hesitated. Maybe I should tell him first , Spike wondered before he quickly shook away that thought. He couldn’t stand his heart being crushed again.

“Fine, I’ll stay here and baby-sit...well...whoever’s staying here then. You go be the tough guy with your weapons and machinery” Spike sighed out while removing himself from their embrace.

“So you’ll be ok?” Angel asked, grabbing his leather jacket off the chair and putting it on.

“Sure luv, if not I can always go bother anyone that’s down in medical. Now bugger off so I can have some quality time with myself” Spike replied, shoving Angel into the elevator pecking him on the cheek before he could say anything else.

As the elevator’s doors closed Spike scanned the apartment for anything he could do before he growled in annoyance. Angel had barely left and he already missed him. He really was love’s bitch after all, Spike thought dejectedly before he grabbed his coat, pressed the elevator button, and waited impatiently.

WOLFRAM AND HART, MEDICAL WARD, EVENING:

“So anything a poor, lonesome vamp like me could do around here princess?” Spike asked, shoving his hands deep into his jean pockets. Fred smiled brightly before heading over to Spike and dragging him into the ward rather than leaving him to stand outside it.

”When I get sick or hurt, I like a little bit of company” Fred replied as she went back to cleaning up the sorry mess the ward had turned into due to the seriousness of the patients injury's

“Magic has helped them heal a lot quicker and easier so maybe you could just...talk to them while I clean up” Fred said cheerfully, picking up random objects or rubbish off the floor. Spike shook his head, how can anyone be cheerful in here? He thought incredulously.

“Well,” Spike said as he walked towards a medical bed, “Since you’re the only one awake and the person who seems to have the least injury's, let me introduce myself” Spike stopped beside the bed and held out his hand.

“The names Spike,” His hand was gripped by another hand, “I’m
Devon, pleasure to meet you” Devon responded, shaking the hand within his grip.

‘PURE EVIL’ CLUB, ENTRANCE:

“Anyone who didn’t listen to me back at the firm, which I know most of you didn’t, I need you to either hide or throw away large weapons since there is no way we will get in there with them” Angel said, watching as most of the gang sheepishly threw away their weapons to the side and hid smaller weapons in their attire.

“Good. Ok, Gunn’s team will circle the dance floor and found out anything about this guy from regular visitors. Wesley’s team will stay by any noticeable exits and watch for anything suspicious or for any new arrivals. My team will follow me to Kaden. Is that clear?” They nodded at Angel and followed him to the entrance of the club, watching as several bouncers blocked their path.

“Here to see Kaden” Angel cut in before any of the bouncers could speak.

“He don’t-“

“Tell him it’s Angel” Angel yelled out angrily, watching as the bouncer clenched his teeth in rage at being blown off. “Now,” Angel added when they didn’t move.

One of the bouncers went inside and spoke through a phone to, who Angel assumed, Kaden. After a few seconds he smirked, turned to Angel and shook his head jeeringly.

“Afraid not” The bouncers closed in on the gang but they stood their ground.

“Tell him Wolfram and Hart, he robbed it earlier” Angel shouted at the bouncer on the phone, watching as he spoke into it and paying no attention to the others closing in on them.

“Wait!” The bouncer yelled out, replacing the phone back into its cradle.

“He will see you” He said casually and gestured to the other guards to back away. As they did Angel stepped into the club, the others following closely behind.

WOLFRAM AND HART, MEDICAL WARD:

“...Then my ex got all totally freaked! I could not convince her that I wasn’t looking at the guys arse, he just got in the way! So then she thought I was gay and we got in this HUGE argument at what was supposed to be our engagement party! Now I am talking in front of everyone! Parents, friends, pets! Everyone! So in the end I got so sick of her ranting and raving that I grabbed the nearest guy and snogged him! Imagine my shock when I realized that I liked it!”
Devon said, watching as Spike laughed wholeheartedly and chuckled along with him.

“And that was the time when I realized I was gay!”
Devon finished, clinking his glass of water with Spikes.

“So, tell me about how you knew you were gay”
Devon asked enthusiastically.

“Well, I was turned a vampire by Angelus, didn’t really see him there was too bloody petrified to concentrate on anything. Then when I woke I saw him and that was that! I was gay” Spike replied seriously, looking distastefully at the drink he was holding.

“I guess we all don’t go through denial” Devon said, feeling a tingling sensation in his head.

“So what’s say you and me ditch this place and find us some proper drinks” Devon asked, throwing the water behind his bed.

“God yes! Lead the way!” Spike answered, jumping up and pulling Devon to his feet.

As they passed Fred Devon couldn't’t help notice what book she was reading. An ancient text was scribed on the stem of the book and
Devon didn’t recognize the language it was written in. Devon shuddered as Kaden’s voice entered his head.

That girl will be trouble for us. If she can read ancient texts then she must be a very smart little girl. Lets see how much she likes the ancients after she gets a little taster. Keep up the good work
Devon, I’m counting on you.

“Mr. Angel. Welcome to my humble abode” Kaden spoke as he withdrew himself from Devon’s mind and swiveled his chair around to face his visitors.
