sorry for the long wait but i'm back for now please read and review!!!!!

THE LATIN IN THIS CHAPTER IS VERY LOOSELY TRANSLATED. PLEASE DON'T EXPECT ANYTHING SPECTACULAR LOL
Chapter 6: Magic Stuff

Buffy quietly entered her home with Angel with a bag full of magic materials that were needed for the spell, and the book that she borrowed from the library. She didn’t know Latin at all but apparently the language was all about pronunciation, and Buffy did take Spanish in high school.

The blonde started walking up to the bathroom in the master bedroom where she planned to set everything up. Easier clean up. She explained to herself. Well if this all works like it’s suppose to then you won’t be here to clean it up.

But halfway up the stairs she was stopped by a voice. “You just gonna walk right past me without a hello?” the tone was teasing, and in no way angry, if not a little hurt.

Buffy jumped at her husband words. “Sorry Angel…I didn’t even see you there.” She claimed as he emerged from the kitchen.

“It’s okay, baby.” He walked towards her and wrapped her in a tight hug. “Did you get my note this morning?” He asked kissing her forehead.

Buffy pulled away awkwardly. “Yeah I did…I had some errands to run myself.”

Angel glanced down at the bag in her hand. “Oh yeah…what did you pick up?” he tried to sneak a peek.

“Stuff.” Buffy quickly stated, pulling the bag a little farther away from him. “Magic stuff, it’s a thing.” She shrugged it off like it was no big deal.

Angel smiled brightly at her. “You seem to be in a better mood today. You’re actually saying more than two words at a time.” He ran his big hand over her hair.

“Yeah I think I’m doing a little better. I think I get it now…Deanna’s gone. She’s not coming back…here anywayand although it hurts, it’s not gonna change and there’s nothing I can do about it.” Buffy sighed heavily. If she didn’t know what was on the other side Buffy would have never said that, and if Angel fell for it he didn’t know her very well.

“Wow. What a turn around. Yesterday you couldn’t even get out of bed. I’m glad that you’re coming to terms with it baby…I thought I lost you for good.” He kissed her on the forehead.

You will. Buffy thought to herself. What an idiot he was if he thought she would actually be able to get over losing Deanna that quickly. He was making it really easy to leave this place. Buffy faked a smile. “I’m just gonna put this upstairs and then fix up something to eat okay.”

“Alright. I’m gonna jump in the shower.” He kissed her again on the cheek and headed upstairs.

* * * * *

After Buffy put everything in the closet in the bedroom for safekeeping, she made her way back downstairs. She thought it would be best to do while Angel wasn’t home so waiting until tomorrow when he left for work would be perfect.

When she entered the kitchen, the blonde heard the distinct sound of vibrations and realized it was Angel’s cell phone on the counter. Curiosity got the better of her and Buffy picked it up and the screen flashed ‘one new text message’. She read the text.

‘Can’t wait to see you tonight at ‘the office’. Lol
I’m thinking another sleepover is in order.
Maybe this time I can keep you from going back
to that comatose wife of yours.

Lust you…Gwen’

Buffy still felt hurt by those words but wouldn’t let herself cry over them. I think what hurt the most was that he could cheat on her at her lowest moment, and so shortly after he lost his daughter. She deleted the message and threw the phone back onto the counter.

After another twenty minutes, Angel skipped his way downstairs and into the kitchen.

“I know I just got home, but I got get back to the office. I didn’t finish all the work I was suppose to last night.” Angel rushed around the space making himself a quick coffee. He pressed a kiss to her forehead. “I’m sorry baby, but I’ll finish up as soon as I can, okay?”

Buffy nodded silently, and followed him to the door. “I’ll see you tonight then.” She lied. Buffy noticed that he at least had the decency to change back into his suit after his shower.

“Okay…I’ll call you on my way home.” Angel started walking down the driveway to his car. Once he had his car door open Buffy called out to him.

“Angel!” He glanced back and smiled. “Tell Gwen I said hi.” She smiled sweetly when she noticed the shocked look on his face. “Now go, she’s expecting you at the office.” With that, Buffy slammed the door closed, locked and bolted it shut then ran upstairs to start the spell.

Buffy went to the closet to grab to book and the materials she needed for the spell that could change her life forever. She hurried to the bathroom and quickly pushed all the bath rugs out of the way to clear a spot for the sacred circle.

She poured the blue sand in a circle on the floor around her, and sat cross-legged in the center of it. She set up three white candles in a triangle in front of her and lit them one after the other with a long match. Out of the bag, Buffy pulled out a bundle of Passionflower, and held it in the palms of her hands.

“Here we go.” She whispered to herself before grabbing the spell book and placing it on her lap. The blonde flipped it to the correct page, and took a deep breath. Her stomach was flipping around inside her. If this worked, she would be home with Spike and Deanna before dinnertime. If it didn’t, then she would have to deal with a cheating husband when he got home the next morning.

Buffy held the passionflower by the stem, and held it over the flame of the middle candle, and started the incantation.

‘Ut haria quinymo exsisto somnium
Quam animadverto ego ago
Toma mihi ut locus ego peto
Quod permissum mihi ago vita of meus somnium
Permissum is exsisto
Permissum is exsisto
Permissum is exsisto’

The blonde didn’t move the flower from the flame until it had burnt right out. She stayed silent, not wanting to ruin the moment or the spell. Before she knew it, Buffy started feeling dizzy and everything in the room started blending together.

It’s working. She thought to herself before passing out in the Circle of Blessing.
