Part Two
I sat at my desk and opened the letter from Buffy. Since I had moved to LA we had deepened our friendship. I enjoyed hearing about Sunnydale and what the gang was up to. Settling back I started to read.
‘Cordy
Well, I never thought I’d be baring my soul to you. Goes to show how much we’ve changed. I trust you and I’ve got no one else I can turn to. The others just wouldn’t understand.
I’m pregnant Cordy. God! Seeing it in black and white makes it all very real. And, before you ask, it’s Angel’s. I know what he said vampires can’t have children yada yada yada. Well he was wrong.
Promise me you won’t say anything to him. I don’t want him to know. He doesn’t give a damn about me and he sure as hell isn’t having any claim on this child. My child.
I know I won’t be able to keep it hidden for much longer but until that time comes I am going to keep quiet. I need this time to sort things out. I’m going to be a mother. What kind of child will be born out of a union between a vampire and a slayer? I guess that’s one for Giles and his books. I tell you one thing I am damn sure of I’m having this baby.
Enough of that! I’m nearly in tears here and I don’t want to have to explain that to my Mom. Plus, the panda look is so last year...’
"CORDY!"
I dropped the letter with a start. Angel stood in front of me, his arms folded and a slightly annoyed look on his face.
"Oh, um, sorry." I deliberately moved a file on top of the letter and then looked him in the eye. "You wanted something?"
"I wanted that case file" he replied as he tried to pick up the same file that hid the letter.
I thought on my feet. Leaning on the desk, my hand on the file, I stood.
"You go back to your office. I just need to finish something up and then I’ll bring it to you."
Angel looked at me, raising one eyebrow quizzically.
"Everything alright?"
"Fine. Fine. Everything’s fine." ***Your ex is pregnant. You’re the father. You both still love each other but are too stubborn to let the other know. Yeah, it’s all fine!***
"Ok then." Angel wasn’t convinced but went back to his office anyhow.
As his door closed behind him I let out a long breath. Sitting back down I dug out the letter.
***What am I going to do about you two?***
I know my timing is probably way way off with them sleeping together, him going away and her being pregnant but this is one of those stories that is going round and round in my head and just HAS to be put on paper to stop it from driving me mad. Please forget the world of Joss and suspend your beliefs!
Feedback would be nice if it's not too much trouble...
