Chapter 4: Touched
~November 1, 2003~
I’m responsible for their pain. My stupidity cost Angelcakes the one thing he wanted most….His love.
If I hadn’t suggested that Angel and Eve get a room, none of this would’ve…could’ve happened. Buffy wouldn’t have seen Angel having sex with another woman, Angelcakes wouldn’t be so heartbroken, and I wouldn’t have this guilty conscience eating away at my heart every moment.
I thought I knew what kyerumption was the moment I saw Angel and Cordelia training together. I coaxed Angel to go for it, distinctly ignoring what Angel’s feelings were screaming out for.
Until I saw that little cute Slayer’s face, I never realized how much those two were the true definition of kyerumption. There was all the elements of heartbreak in their relationship, but there was also something else…..
Everlasting love. Not many couples have that anymore. Would you die for the one you love to let them live? Most people wouldn’t. Those two gave up everything to be together and it was never enough for the Powers That Be.
I need to make this right. Not because I want to clear my guilty conscience clean, but because it’s the right thing to do. I see that now.
After all, if you really love someone, wouldn’t you overcome all obstacles to be together, consequences be damned?
