‘This is it’ He thought. After years of hell, death and almost getting killed myself, I’m finally leaving sunnydale. Willow’s death was a real wake up call for me and Giles. I’m sad, and I miss willow, but she showed us that if we didn’t leave soon, we would be killed. Seeing Giles, man of pride walk away, let me know that I could to. God! Me and Giles were so stupid, we should have left when Giles got his arm cut off. No, we should have left a year ago, when Cordy and Barry left. But we all had reasons to stay. Oz had willow. Giles had his stupid pride. And I had Giles. I loved him, I admired him, and part of me always will. God, I’m going to miss Giles so much! But no matter. Me and oz are in this together. We’ve had each other’s back ever since willow died. Oz is the only one who knows about my secret love for Giles, and he appreciates how I feel. He has been a good friend, despite his own feelings for me.

“Xander” oz said, breaking his chain of thought “bus is here.” Oz and Xander climbed on the bus. They sat at the back, in the comfy seats, because they, along with the entire bus, were empty. Not many buses came in or out of sunnydale, as no one wanted to go in to sunnydale, and most people who used to reside there left along time ago. All but the vampires. He was so nervous. He was going to LA! He took Oz’s hand in his and then looked at Oz, who was looking at him. Xander smiled at Oz, who returned the smile, and firmed the grip slightly. ‘I may not feel for oz like he feels for me, but I need his comfort right now. We’re going to LA, and we have no plan, no money, only each other’ Xander thought to himself. But before he could say anything to Oz, he kissed him.
***
He wanted to end the kiss, because he didn’t feel that way about oz, but the warmth of the kiss made it almost impossible for him to end it. The bus had stopped at its halfway stop, where people who had just entered the bus were staring at them. ‘Let em stare’ thought Xander, enjoying the warmth of the kiss. Then, he decided it was time to end it.
“Oz, I love you, but I don’t love you in that way.” “But you were holding my hand, and you kissed me back” Oz replied, confused “you’re sending me these mixed signals, man.” “Oz, I need you as my friend now, please” they spent most of the journey in silence, still holding hands. Neither was ready to let go yet. Oz broke the silence by asking why honey nut cheerios don’t taste like nuts.

By the time they got to LA, it was dark. “So, Barry’s house is this way?” asked Xander. “Yeah” Oz replied. They made their way to Barry’s house, before being approached by a large female woman. “Hey there, are you Oz and Xander?” “What of it?” Oz asked the woman, before she morphed into her vampire face and bit him. “Oz!” Xander yelled and grabbed the vampire of oz and staked it. Before she turned to dust she yelled “more will come!” “Oz!” he bent down and checked for a pulse. None. Oz was dead. “Damn” Xander cursed to himself. A leaflet blew his way. He read aloud “Angel investigations paranormal experts we…”

“…help the helpless, how can we help you?” Cordy’s peppy voice said down the phone. “Ok, how big is it?” Cordy rolled her eyes at what must have been the reply. “9” is hardly demonic. It might hurt, but it won’t after today.” Cordelia but her head in her hands and sighed. “For the last time, I definitely think you are doing the right thing. Ok, goodbye.”
She walked into the room in which Wesley was researching the latest evil “what do you think Angel is thinking about?” asked Wesley. “Probably that girl who he was ‘in love’ with” Cordy replied “ah, you mean Buffy?” “Yeah, Buffy. How come you always remember her name?” “Because, being a ex-watcher, I knew Metrick, her watcher.” Wesley said with a great deal of pride. ‘If I had have got there a minute earlier, Buffy might not have died’ Angel thought. Suddenly, a dark haired teen entered the hotel, and started talking to Angel. “Erm…hi, I’m Xander” he held his hand out to Angel. It was not shook. “Ok, look, a group of vampires killed my friend and they say their coming after me.” Xander said. Wow, he couldn’t stop looking at Angel. It wasn’t like he forgot about Giles. He just got over him. All these feelings about Giles shifted over to Angel.
***
“Hi Angel, what’s up?” Cordelia asked. She saw Xander and stared in disbelief. “Xander?” “Cordy? Oh my god! I haven’t seen you since last year!” Xander ran over and hugged Cordy. ‘Great. The one guy I actually fall in love with since Buffy, and he used to date Cordelia. Great’. “So how’ve you been?” Xander asked. “Good. Came to LA, met Angel, and we started up an investigations service.” “And are you and Angel, you know…” “Oh, no, me and Angel have a strictly professional relationship. So, how you been?” “Where to start?” Xander replied “Willow and Oz died, Giles lost an arm and moved back to England, and I came out.” “Good for you. Well, the last part anyway. I cant believe Oz and Willow died. So, why are you here?” “Vampires said they were tracking him and his friend. We have to keep him safe here for now.” Commanded Angel. “Ok, do you mind if I go upstairs and have a sleep?” asked Xander. “Sure.” Xander made his way upstairs and found a room to sleep in.

ONE HOUR LATER
Xander was sleeping silently, and Angel was standing in his room, watching him. ‘Wow, I cannot believe how beautiful Xander is, he’s so…’ a small female vampire busted through the window, jumping on Xander. It woke Xander up with a shock “nnghahh!” he yelled, as he pushed the vampire off him, and Angel ran over and staked it. “Angel, how did you get here so quickly? Your room is right down the hall.” Angel pondered over what to tell Xander. “I was watching you sleep” Angel said, before quickly adding “to make sure that…uh…” but before Angel could finish his answer, Xander ran over and kissed him. “You to, huh?” Angel asked “yeah.” Xander replied, before kissing Angel again. Xander slowly circled his tongue around Angel’s lips, and Angel opened his mouth and entered his own tongue. ‘Tongue!’ thought Xander ‘time for the next step’ Xander unbuttoned Angel’s shirt, who in turn unbuttoned his. Xander started unzipping Angel’s trousers, and Angel took Xander’s off. This continued until both where naked, and they started caressing each other’s bodies. They backed up onto the bed, and Angel started kissing Xander’s neck. “I love you.” Xander said. Angel looked up and said “I love you to”
***
Hours later, Xander and Angel were lying on the bed together, when Angel awoke with a jolt. He realised what was happening. ‘I need to get out of here, fast’ Angel thought. The front doors would have taken to long. He jumped out the window. He could feel it coming out. He was losing it. “aah! Nooo!”.
Xander was awoken by Angel’s screaming. He looked out the window, to find Angel lying on the floor. “Angel! You ok?” going out the front way would take too long, so he climbed out the window, grabbing the pipes and window frames on his way. “Are you ok, Angel? Did I…upset you?” “No Xander. I’m really happy” Angel said, as he stood up with vampire face on “perfectly happy, even. In fact, I want to make you one of my own” he bent in to bite Xander, but was hit in the head, and had a cross pointed at him “back off, Angel”
***
Cordy said, then looked from Xander to Angel and added “why are you to naked?” “Unimportant” “I don’t really want to know.” Said Cordy. “Fine then, I’ll just have to kill all of you then.” Angel said, and knocked the cross from Wesley’s hand. He advanced on them, then he suddenly stopped, and turned to dust. A bleach blonde male vampire with a British accent and a stake stood over the dust. “Thought you’d of got the message from the lackeys I sent after you, Xander’s my bitch!” “Spike?” Xander asked. “Yup. Now either you come here and give me a hug, or I kill all these people. Your call.” Xander went to Spike with both arms open, and punched him in the face with one, took his stake with another, kneed him in the balls, and staked him. “Jackass” he yelled, almost in tears. He knelt down over Angel’s dust and cried. ‘Oh my god! Angel’s dead. I loved him! Where do I go from here?’
