Summary: Willow was injured badly during the attempted witch
burning.
Part 1
A hospital in LA January 2000
A redhead lay in a hospital bed. She had been a coma for months. The nurses did the usually rounds one or two of them would talk to her. While giving her scared body a wash. Her mother and the slayer's mother had rallied the people of Sunnydale into hunting down witches.
One of the man threw petrol on the flames. Before the flames could be put out. Her clothes had caught fire and melted against her skin. Combined with the pain and shock she had gone into a coma.
A dark hair visitor entered the room. He looked down at the redhead. "It's me Angel." He spoke placing a small kiss on her forehead. He pulled up a chair and gentle held her hand. The nurses knew that he was her only regular visitor. A blond girl use to visit a lot but not any more.
"I have news about your mother." Angel softly spoke. "She's in a mental hospital now. Buffy's got a new boyfriend his name's Riley."
"Angel." Came a very faint whisper from the girl.
Part 2
"Angel." The whispered word echoed in his mind. Willow was waking up. Willow was waking up!
The next word came. "Hurt." The word was softly spoken.
"Willow. Come on you can do it." Angel whispered. "You can wake up."
"Hurts." Came a shout from Willow that ended as a scream almost.
A nurse came in. "Arrr!" Willow screamed at the pain in her still healing body.
"Doctor!" The nurse ran off. "Doctor Masters! Ms Rosenberg is a wake."
Angel quickly found himself moved outside the room as a time of Doctors and nurses bluzzed round the newly awaken redhead.
"Morphine." A doctor shouted. "Thanks." The doctor injected Willow with the drug.
A nurse came out the room. She smiled at Angel as she passed.
"Why is she in pain?" The vampire asked.
"We don't know yet. Excuse me, I've got some stuff to get." The nurse moved off and got a machine.
Angel watched the Nurses and Doctors though a window. He had to step back and forth as the door opened. Taking and bring stuff. They seemed to take for ever. They finally left Willow's room.
"You can see her now." A tired Doctor spoke.
"What happened?" Angel asked hoping he would get some answers.
"Her nerves are firing off on their own. We will perform more tests tomorrow." The doctor answered.
Angel entered the room. Willow's arms now had pillows under them and her legs and feet had cream spread over them.
"Willow." Angel spoke.
"Angel?" A tear rolled down her cheek.
Part 3
Angel gently wrapped his arms around the young woman. "Why?" Willow sobbed. "Why did they do it to me?"
"It was the demon." He gently stoked her hair.
"Where are the others?" Willow rested her head against Angel's shoulder.
"Buffy is in Sunnydale. She use to visit every week." Angel spoke.
"Oz?" The girl asked.
"He left Sunnydale during the summer. He as a new girlfriend. I'm sorry." Angel spoke.
Willow let out a small sob. "Don't be. It hadn't been good for a while. What about Xander?"
"Xander and Anya have moved in together." Angel giggled.
"Cordy?" Willow spoke and wondered why she was asking after the former cheerleader.
"She's here in LA. She works for me now."
Willow laughed until a wave of pain protested against the use of that set of muscles. "Ouch laughter not good yet."
Angel smiled at her. They looked deep into each others' eyes for what seemed an eternity. Their lips touched. Their first kiss developed. Gentle at first them becoming passionate.
Outside the hospital two figures stood. One had black hair and other one with blond. "Now Tara remember. No bitting anyone." The dark haired woman turned to the other
"Yes Dru." The blond haired woman replied.
Part 4
Angel left the hospital the two female vampires watched from across the street "Ready?" Dru asked.
"Yes." Tara grinned. "Lets get them together."
Willow sat in bed. She could still feel Angel's lips on hers. The kiss had awaken feels towards Angel she had repressed. What a night! Firstly she had woken up and then kissed him! Him of all people. She had kissed a man she had made herself believe she could never have. Now she could.
She had been in a coma for months. Her muscles felt weak and yet she was very tired.
Tara smiled as she and Dru entered the hospital. They could smell Angel's scent path. They followed it. "Excuse me." A guard called after them. "Visiting hours are over."
Dru waved her hand in front of the guard and reached out with her psychic powers. "Sorry please say I said hello." The guard walked off.
Tara giggled. "She's on the forth floor." Calling the lift.
"You're getting better." Dru joined in.
"Thanks." The blond vampire smiled as they entered the lift. The doors closed behind them.
Willow settled down for a nap when the door to her room open and in walked a blond nurse with a wheelchair.
"I'm Tara. I've been told to help you have a bath." The woman smiled.
Part 5
Willow groaned as she came round. She opened her eyes and looked round. She was in a four poster bed and there was a dress hanging up near the bed. There was a large double door to her left. "K' lets think." The redhead babbled. "That nurse had come then everything went dark."
The doors opened and there stood Dru and Tara. They were dressed in wrap around robes. Dru smiled as the young woman who had stolen her sire's heart looked at her.
Cordelia banged on the door of Angel's bedroom. "Angel! Get up!"
"Cordy! What is it!" Yelled the vampire.
"Willow's missing!" Cordelia yelled back.
The door opened and the brunette fell into the room. "When? Where and how?" Angel asked.
"Last night. How? No one knows." The brunette answered straightening herself up.
Willow eyes went wide in terror. The two vampires could smell her. Dru walked over to the redhead and sat down. "I mean you no harm." She spoke. "Let's talk about Angel."
"What about him?" Willow answered nervously trying to hide behind a silk cover.
"You love him." Tara spoke it was a statement not a question.
Willow shot her a look of daggers.
"My goodness! If looks could kill." Dru laughed pulling back the covers to reveal the redhead dressed in a white lace bra, brief and suspender belt and silk stockings.
"Oh!" Willow gasped as the two women let their robes fell to the floor. Dru was dress in a black lingerie and Tara in white.
Willow felt very nervous at their actions. "It's time for little tree to get ready." Dru smiled picking Willow up.
"For what?" The girl asked.
"Why your mating with Angel." Dru laughed placing Willow in a chair.
Angel paced around his office. Cordelia screamed "Arrrrggghhh. Will you stop that! You can't search for her during the day. You've called everyone you!"
Angel looked shocked. The door ring Cordelia went for it. A mail man pushed an envelope into her hand he ran off. She closed the door and turned a puzzled expression on her face.
"It's for you." Cordelia passed it to her boss.
Angel ripped it open it read;
Dear Angel
I know I secret! You love Little Tree. Did you know I like her too?
She's the perfect mate for you. I've sent up a small mating ceremony for the pair of you.
Now be on time. Dress well. Sunset. The old mansion in Seventh Street
Oh before I forget. Your soul is anchored.
Love Dru
Part 6
Angel's legs gave out from under him. Dru had Willow! His Willow! She knew he loves the redhead. He was planning on making Willow his mate. His soul was anchored!
Cordelia just looked at him. He smiled. "Your not going losing your soul are you?" She asked.
"I can't." Angel grinned. "I know who and why now." He grinned.
Cordelia's jaw dropped.
Willow could believe what was happening to her. The two vampires had done her hair, toe and finger nails and her make up. She was wearing a wedding dress made of lace, silk and white leather.
The dark haired vampire had done something to stop the pain and straightened her legs.
"The stars tell me he's coming, Little Tree." Dru sang as she and Tara danced round the throne like chair Willow was sat in.
"Angel!" Cordelia yelled. "Wait up. You tell me to get dressed up in my best dress and then drag me here. Why?"
"Cause I need a witness." Angel ran ahead.
"For what?" She ran after him.
"A ceremony of mating." Angel yelled.
"Mating!" The brunette gasped.
The mansion's doors opened. "Come. Come in." Dru danced back into the hallway. "All is ready."
"What going off?" Cordelia looked at Angel.
"Why? The mating of Little Tree to Angel of course." Dru sang.
"Willow and you?" Cordelia yelped.
"Come now." Dru sang entering another room.
Angel followed with Cordelia behind him.
Willow was standing in a circle around her candles. Angel could hear her heart beat. A veil covered her face. The redhead lifted the veil as Angel walked in front of her.
"Angel."
"Willow."
Tara and Dru began to dance and chant. Angel shifted to game face. Willow gently moved his mouth to her neck.
"Mine?" Angel asked.
"Yours." Willow answered.
Willow felt his fangs pierce her skin.
Angel felt and tasted Willow's blood as he bite. Cordelia gasped.
Angel broke away from Willow's neck. Dru passed Willow a knife.
"Mine?" The redhead asked.
"Yours." Angel answered guiding the blade to his wrist.
Willow cut his wrist. drawing a couple droplet of blood. She licked them up.
Angel lifted her into his arms. His lips claiming hers.
Dru and Tara walked over to Cordelia. Dru laughed. Tara smiled "They're mated." Dru shouted.
Willow and Angel continued kissing. "I think they're not going to get home." Cordelia sighed.
"It worked Chase." Tara laughed.
Willow laughed as Angel carried her up into a chamber marked the honeymoon suite.
The end for now.
