It had been three years since Buffy had left Angel alone in his mansion. She remembered the night like it was only yesterday. She could see Angel still standing there with tears in his eyes and confusion in his heart. She sometimes wondered if she had actually done the right thing. She knew that she had loved Pike but yet she had always known that Angel was still apart of her. She had stayed in Sunnydale with Pike for a year even after she had left Angel. He had been working with the gang to help kill vampires and demons but yet they never once had spoken to each other. Soon no later after that her best friend in the whole world had died. It had all happened one night when Angel, Buffy, Willow, and Pike had all gone out patrolling. It was the first time she had even spoken to them both together. Buffy remembered the screaming and the fighting. But there was one thing she rembered the most. Losing Willow. They had been so busy fighting that she hadn't heard Willow scream. Spike had grabbed her and sired her best friend right in front of Buffy. She remembered the long pause as she watched the vampire drop her best friend to the ground. It was because of Buffy that her best friend had died. After that she just couldn't deal. She staged a fake death, which brought in another Slayer who they called Kendra. Her and Pike had moved to Los Angeles to get away from it all. But Buffy still kept in touch with only Xander. Together they had to agreed to keep secret that she was still alive. It was something she knew that she just couldn't tell Giles. She had heard from Xander that Angel and Cordelia had moved away to LA and Buffy knew that she had to see him. She just didn't know when.

Deep down inside her heart Buffy knew suddenly one night why she had left Angel. She wanted something that she knew she could never get from Angel. She wanted the one true thing that any girl really wanted. Ever since she was a little girl all Buffy ever wanted was to be married. She wanted to live in a big white house with children playing in the yard. Now that she was older all she could think about was having a child. Together her and Pike had tried endlessly to have a child. Finally after miscarriage after miscarriage Buffy decided that it was time to give up. And she knew inside that there relationship wound’t last.

A year later Buffy finally found herself back in Sunnydale. She had been right about the relationship with Pike. Buffys need for a child was just too much for Pike to deal with. After months of trying to work things out there marriage ended in divorce. Pike had again decided to travel and see what he could find. And some how after everything that had happened she found herself back in Sunnydale. Where it had all started and would probably never end. Suddenly Buffy found herself on the steps of Xanders parents house. As his father came to the door she politely asked if Xander was home and his father led him down into the basement. Buffy then found herself staring straight at Xander like to two had never met. He walked over to her after a moment of staring and hugged her tightly. She couldn’t help but start to cry. Xander knew something was wrong and Buffy began to spill it all out.

As Buffy walked to the Coffee shop, she couldn’t help but think about her talk with Xander. He had told her to go along with her dreams. She told him about how much she needed Angel. Xander told Buffy about the knew love of his life. She thought he had said that her name was Anya but wasn’t so sure of it. She was glad for Xander. But she still needed Angel. Then she stopped. Oz. She needed to speak to Oz. Then she remembered what else Xander had said. Oz, unable to deal with Willows sudden death, had left Sunnydale, like Pike, to find his dreams never to return. Buffy sighed. She knew again what she had to do. She needed to go to him. She only needed to see Angel.

As Buffy rode into Los Angeles, she thought about Xander and Anya. She could tell how happy Xander was and how in love he was with this new girl. She wanted her and Angel’s relationship to be just like that. Relationship? She could only hope so. As Buffy Arrived at Angels new place she looked up at the sign over head. Angel Investigations? Hm? She giggled. Stopping for a minute she looked at the building. She knew what she had to do.

Cordelia and Angel were sitting at the desk when Buffy walked in. Buffy had tried to imagine there faces would look like when she had arrived, but Cordelias face just made her smile. Cordelia had a big grin on her face and Buffy could tell that something was up. Cordelia, all of a sudden, ran to Buffy and gave her a big hug. Then as Cordelia wispered in Buffys ear " I’m going to leave you two alone now" She was gone in only a second. There left two lovers staring back at each other. "You came back" he said quietly after a moment of silence. " I had too Angel. You were right. I did love you. I was just too stubborn to listen." As she moved close her to him she put her arms around his neck "Every story has its end Angel..But love never ends."

As Cordelia entered the building again she stopped to stare. There, in amazement, she watched as the two pulled each other close for one long lust filled passionate kiss. " The End" She said to herself as she left the two alone. This was going to be one story with a happy ending.
The End
