Summary: Risen from the ashes, as an Angel




***



He swam laps in the giant aqua pool they had out the back and when he dived under and opened his eyes he could see the stars across the tiles, singing up at him. Will watched him from the pool side, layed out on a deck chair, naked and pretty and white in the hot midday sun.

But he wouldn�t burn and he always stayed white. White as tissue paper, and sometimes his skin would goosepimple and the fine clear hairs all over his body would reach out for a touch.

Angel stepped out of the pool and shook himself off until he was dry. Will blew him a kiss and he slinked over to him, cat-like, and sat on his lap, purring loudly as Will petted him down his back. He leant forward and rested his chin on Will�s shoulder as the pat continued and Will was getting rid of all his excess fur and it was spiralling off into the not cold breeze and he was naked too. Will scratched at the backs of his ears and then down his neck, smiling his sexy smirk as he did, tongue curling out, and his hands scratched lower and lower until he was scratching at the base of Angel�s tail. He moaned. Not scratching exactly, more rubbing his fingernail back and forth�

Angel loved it and he wriggled up against the strong chest.


�Angel? Angel. Angel, wake up baby.�
Someone was shaking his shoulder.

He groggily opened his eyes. It was Will! Will was kneeling on the ground shaking his shoulder. Come to pet him and scratch the base of his tail maybe.

He yawned. �I�m ready now. I just dreamed about it.�

When he looked up, Will was scurrying around trying to find paper and pencils for him. He looked anxious and frazzled.

�What�s wrong?� He asked, slipping out from under the bed and sitting on the fresh covers. After a moment he pulled his pillow out from under the bed and hugged it as he watched Will.

�I need you to draw me something.�

He raised his eyebrows and flexed his sleep clumsy fingers. �Of what Daddy?�

Will didn�t answer, just looked at him from the corner of his eye. Angel let his head fall back and posed for him.

He gave a tense smile and knelt down next to the bed running his hand over Angel�s thigh soothingly, moving the pillow away from his lap.

He meowed. They were going to play. He waited for the rubbing to creep to his awakening crotch.

Will put the paper on his lap and gave him the pencils. He still wanted a drawing. Will�s other hand was sliding up over his chin, fingers creeping across his mouth. He looked worried.

�Angel � you won�t like what I want you to draw, but I want you to try for me, okay?�

Angel didn�t like that. �What is it?�

�Baby � I want you to draw Harlen.�

The stars songs bottomed out in his stomach, flipping it inside out. �Noooo!� He started yelling but Will�s hand was over his mouth.

�I need it Angel. Draw it now. Draw what he looked like that night.�

Angel was hyperventilating and he needed to pee all of a sudden. He thought he might wet himself. This wasn�t better than the dream. Maybe that was reality and this was a nightmare. He squeaked. Will had said they were getting a pool. They were out in the sun. They only way was to get back to reality.

He flopped back onto bed and closed his eyes, urging sleep.

�Liam! Get up.� Hissed Will.

Now he was scared. This was horrible. Will wasn�t ever mean to him. He shook his head into the pillow.

�I need you to draw this for me. Be a good kitty and draw for Daddy, alright? He needs it.�

Angel opened an eye. Will was staring down at him irritated, face frowned up in worry. His words were empty.

�You�re scaring me.� He whispered, under his breath.

�What?�

He choked back a sob. �You�re scaring me. Send back the nice Will.� He said, hoping he wouldn�t get a hit like from Steve or a slap like from Mikael.

Mean-Will dropped to his knees beside the bed. �I�m sorry Angel, baby, I love you, alright I do. I�ve just had a � I�ve had a bloody hard night.�

That sounded like Will. He decided to reason. �� Will � if I draw � it, I wont like it. It will scare me.�

�No reason to be scared baby, I�ll be right next to you.�

�No, Daddy I�d rather not, please don�t be angry.� He couldn�t draw it, he just couldn�t, because then they�d leap out from the page and they�d be holding their knives. He was protecting them. He was good.

�Angel. Please.�

�Daddy ��

�Okay. Can you describe them to me?�

�Daddy nooo��

�Angel!� he barked, his eyes wide. He looked like he was going to cry but he sounded like he was going to hit him. His hands were squeezing tight around his arms.

The stars didn�t know what to do, they were running back and forth past empty holes and couldn�t advise him. His eyes started to water.

�I can�t. Please William.� They�d cut them up. And it would hurt. Angel just knew it.

Will was gripping onto his hand so hard it was hurting. �Baby. I want to believe you. I can�t until you tell me what vampires look like, can you understand that?�

�I want to go back to sleep.� He stuttered. He was so frightened.

Will stared down at him, irritated and � disappointed. He didn�t understand. What would happen if� he couldn�t talk about them.

�I love you. Stop that baby.� Will�s hand was over his mouth trying to cut of the squeals he was making. He got a hold of himself and stopped. �I love you. You know that?�

He closed his eyes and shook his head in the grip.

�I do love you. Very much. I don�t like that you won�t help me.�

Angel started bawling. He was scared. Maybe � maybe this Will � it was night � no, not Will, he knows Will �
He started gagging.

Will � it was dark.
They come when it�s dark.

�Baby, what�s wrong?� He asked, letting him go.

Angel seized the moment and jumped up, running out the door. He fled down the hallway going through the maintenance door that was still open, knowing it came out on the other side of the cafeteria �Will had told him. He could hear his bare feet slapping against the lino on the floor.

It was so dark. There was no one around. He was afraid. He span at a noise and only saw dark corridors and shadows hiding behind shadows.

�Will!� he cried out before realising Will was who he was running from. The idea made him crumple to the floor. He felt winded. The stars were whipping bits of barbed wire around and it was hurting his mind.

He crawled along the hallway, turning towards the art room, before picking himself up and running again. He got to the wing and found the doorways pushed open.

�Thankyou.� He whispered to the stars.

�Angel!� he heard his name whispered behind him. �Angel, come back!�

He shook his head and ran into the art room, the door betraying and noisy behind him. He ran in and tried to hide behind a painting but it was too dark and then he realised a bed would be better for hiding in the dark. There were no beds so he slid under one of the tables, inching along the gritty ground until he was huddled, his knees up against his chest.

The door groaned open. �Angel pet, you can�t be out here. They�re gonna know. They lock you in at night. Come on sweets, I�ll take you back.�

Angel could hear himself panting.

�Baby.� His voice cracked. �I had a horrible day, and I know I was bad and rude to you but � I�m sorry.�

The stars were jarring and shivering in shock. They tried to sing but they were just muttering, coughing, stuttering. Angel cried.

Will sniffed wetly. �Please come out from under there. I don�t want to pull you out. I want you to hug me.� Another wet sniffle. �It�s just � I have to deal with everything myself and � It�s hard baby. I�m sorry, I can�t have you mad at me. I just � Come out and hug me, I need you.�

Angel�s heart found this very appealing.

�I�m sorry you had a bad day.� He whispered, not wanting to give away where he was, but having an innate urge to want to cheer Will up, even if he was a vampire.

�I�m sorry too Pet.�

�Are you a vampire?� Angel whispered.

�No pet. I can honestly say that I�m not.�

�How can I believe you?� He whimpered.

He watched Will�s feet, still in front of the door, not moving.

�Pet. I love you, I �� he sighed. �I couldn�t have gotten into your room without an invite, could I?�

�Yes.�

�How?� he asked.

�My body invited you in.�

�Alright.� He said, devoid of any emotion. �Do vampires have a heartbeat?�

�No.� He thought for a second. �And they�re cold.�

�Come and feel me.�

�Leave the door open.� He said, comfortable in his knowledge that Will didn�t know where he was.

�Alright.� He saw the door open up, the dark hallway beyond it. He gulped.

�It�s dark Daddy.�

�I know. I was very surprised that you ran out into it. You�re very brave tonight.� Will said, coming closer. He would look under the table if he knew where Angel was, though. So he was hiding well.

Will pulled away one of the bench seats and Angel thought that was lucky he did that, because he could get out easier. He slithered up; terrified he was going to see those eyes staring back at him. All he saw was the same gentle blue he�d always seen. His cheeks had tracks of silver on them.

He looked nervously into the corridor, before walked stiltedly forward and held his hand up. Will stared at it for a second before holding it up to his very warm face and then pushing it under his shirt so Angel could feel his heartbeat.

The stars sighed in relief and started humming.

�Thah-thump thah-thump.� He sung along with it.

Will smiled and pulled him in for a kiss. Angel looked around and saw how dark it was, and latched onto Will�s neck.

�Daddy, it�s so dark.�

�I know. I�ll take you back to your room okay, Angel-cat? Always nice and safe there.�

Angel�s heart fluttered with relief. �Yes.�

They walked back through the dark halls, a lot darker now he was concentrating on them. Darker shadows. He could see them dancing out of the corner of his eyes, dancing after them ready to strike.

�Come on Pet, you walked through here just before, remember?� Will cooed when he stopped frozen at the maintenance hallway. �Angel, baby, I�m not too fond of the dark right now, either, please hurry.�

Angel tripped through the hallway and ran back to his room, Will walking quickly behind him. He jumped into his bed and Will closed the door behind him.

�I still need you to tell me, it�s so important, please, nothing has ever been this important to me.�

�Tell you what?� He asked, confused. Tell him about the �

�Dark?�

�No, about Harlen, what he looked like.�

Angel just stared at him. He didn�t want to.

�I know you don�t want to, but�� He swallowed and let out a little giggle that sounded none too out of place in the ward. �I saw a vampire today, Pet. Two of them.� He whispered.

Angel started choking. He couldn�t breathe; Will held his hand up to his mouth to muffle the sounds.

Will�s eyes started watering, but he was laughing as well. �And I�ll stay here with you tonight, I�ll stay, if you tell me what they look like.�

No wonder Will was being so mean tonight. Vampires did that to people.

They were allies now. Will believed.

The stars cooed. They wanted Angel to tell him. They were gentle and soft like feathers.

He took a deep breath. �His face.� He said thinking of Harlen.

�What about his face, Pet?� Will asked in a monotone.

He swallowed and cried out a little. Will�s hand was hooked around his chin, ready to cover his mouth if he was too noisy. �Teeth, like razors, Eyes � yellow eyes � like a hawks.� It was so cold; he could feel himself jittering. The spiders were crawling up the bedside, poised on their huge hind legs; ready to attack when he finished.

�And the skin � above their eyes, angry over bones��

He saw a tentacle flop up against the window in the door and then Will was suddenly sitting behind him, chest against his back, legs around his, rocking him, one hand over his mouth and one squeezing his throat.

�Shhh Angel, be quiet, come on, shhh.�

He was trying to scream and he stopped. He panted through his nose and Will laid them both down on the bed, on their sides, his hands still over his mouth and throat.

�I believe you Pet, I believe every word you say. I believe, I believe, I believe it. I�m so sorry I doubted you. I know you don�t lie.� He rambled into his ear, hot breath tickling inside.

A joyous feeling bubbled up in his chest. Will believed him. It felt so good, enough to make the tentacle and spiders disappear, drift into non-existence.

�I love you Pet. I believe you.�

He pulled the hand away from his mouth. �Did they hurt you?� Angel asked, breathlessly.

�No, a girl, a vampire slayer saved me.�

�Vampire slayer?�

�That�s what she did pet.� He giggled. �I think I�m insane now.�

Angel smiled. He liked that idea. �Then you can stay with me forever!�

He rolled back over so they were face to face and saw Will smiling at him. �You can stay here with me, we�ll share this room, and it doesn�t have a pool but that doesn�t really matter in the big picture does it? And � then we can eat together and kiss and rub up against each other and purr all day long and we wouldn�t have to hide from the red ribbons.�

Will leant forward and kissed him lightly, his hand around Angel�s jaw. �I�m so sorry for what they did to you.� He rubbed his thumb along Angel�s bottom lip as he spoke.

�What?� Angel asked, confused. Who did what?

Will didn�t answer. �Everything you said was true, and I can�t imagine the hell you�ve been through. I love you Pet.�

�I love you too.� He answered, not really sure what Will was talking about, but understanding the last part.

He kissed him, happy that Will was staying the night. He wasn�t tired anymore. The stars were all picking up at the fact they were joined now, completely agreed on everything. Will was brushing his hair back with his fingers, his fingers running along his skin nicely.

�Can we play Daddy?� He whispered after a while, his cock swollen at being pressed against Will�s body and all the memories that the feeling unearthed.

�Play what, sweets?� Will asked softly.

Will�s hands were running up and down his sides. It made him feel like he had scales. Nice scales. Like that fish.

�Will you play with me with your fingers?�

Will smirked at him, his eyes still a little sad. �Roll over.�

Angel cooed and pressed a kiss against Will�s lips.

He shifted so he was lying on his back and felt Will pull off his sweats. Will was still on his side, back against the wall, kissing him, relaxing him by running his nails softly over his body and making it goosepimple.

He lifted a finger and Angel sucked it into his mouth automatically, swirling it around and making it slick. �Good Pet.�

Yes. He was.

Will lifted his leg and he felt the digit circle his hole, tantalising the sensitive skin. Will�s other hand tickled across his stomach under his bent back thigh, and started pulling at his cock.

Angel closed his eyes, feeling the electricity wash through him and make his thighs twitch as the tip of Will�s finger edged into his anus.

He bit his lip and let it slide slowly through his teeth as his body clenched around the thin intruder.

�What a good kitty.� Will murmured. He slid the finger in and out. �Good kitty, beautiful.�

Angel purred. He loved it when Will called him a kitty. He especially liked it when Will called him his kitty, but that was rare.

�I want to be your kitty. A good purry kitty for you.� He said, emphasising the words that were spoken when the finger pushed in.

A thumb was pressing down against his perineum. His cock was sheathed in palm and fingers and two digits were opening up his body now.

�You were so brave for telling me that. I know it was hard.� Will said, calmly, like he couldn�t hear the stars crashing around with cake sparklers and singing in rapture and ensnared happily.

Angel managed a meow as Will shifted and crouched over him, his knees next to Angel�s shoulders. He leant down and licked wet and messy across his balls and perineum, causing a stream of spit to run down to his hole ease the prickly burn from his fingers.

�Oooooh� He moaned out at the hot wet running down across him. He tried to tug Will�s jeans off.

Will stood and undid his fly, toeing off his boots. Angel watched from the pillow as he let the jeans slide down his pale thighs, and meowed as the large semi erect cock came into view. He smiled at Will seductively and sat up.

�No pet, stay there.� He said, pulling his jeans and socks off. Angel lay back down, watching Will�s muscles work as he walked back to the bed.

Will reached down, curving his fingers around the back of his neck and guided Angel towards his cock. Angel eagerly opened his mouth and sucked the head inside, gripping his lips around the ridge in a tight ring, and worrying the slit with the point of his tongue as Will groaned and hardened inside him. Will pulled out and climbed back over him, knees on either side of his shoulders. Angel purred at the sight and tilted his head to lick at the balls that were directly over his face. He sucked one into his mouth as Will pulled his thighs up and sucked Angel�s cock halfway into his groaning, vibrating mouth. He could feel Will�s warm hands rubbing over his thighs as he sunk further onto Angel�s cock, surrounding it in wet and suction and tongue. He started doing little thrusts he couldn�t control up into the mouth. Will lifted his hips a little, removing himself from Angel�s mouth and reached back angled his cock down to point at Angel�s lips and lowered his hips.
Angel opened his mouth and let the thick salt-lime length open him up and slide into his throat. Will�s hand clenched around the root of Angel�s cock as he panted above him for a moment, before sliding down onto Angel�s cock again and pumping his mouth up and down. His rocking action fucked his cock into Angel�s throat as Angel clenched his hands around Will�s thighs.

Will lifted off his cock, rolled Angel�s hips up a bit more and leant forward licking along Angel�s exposed asshole, as the man yelped and wriggled and grabbed onto Will�s cock, pointing it back so he could still suck and lick at the tasty prick.

He could feel the warm slick muscle sliding into his ring and his body felt like it was a live wire. Uncovered and raw and sparkling all the way through.
Sparklers.

Will was here now. He was here and he was loving him with his cock in Angel�s mouth and warm hands around his thighs and knees as licked him from the inside out. He believed him. Nothing could go wrong now.

He purred around the cock stretching his throat and Will�s body trembled and groaned.

Will�s long thin fingers were back inside him now, fighting with the slick tongue and the sparks inside him grew brighter. One of Will�s hands slipped around his cock and started to tease him, pulling the skin back and forth, all twists and skilful fingertips.

He closed his eyes.

Everything was how it should be.
