The Hyperion, Saturday Morning

As Bel began to wake up, he realized he was warm. Well, as a demon he was always warm, but when it was a vampire who was in your bed, they tended to leech the heat away. Not only was he warm, but there was more than one body in the bed with him. His memory was foggy enough that he couldn't remember exactly whom he'd slept with last night. Veronica? Lindsey? Tyler? All three? Not that he discriminated much about sharing his bed. Whoever it was, they must've left to feed and returned. Hence the warmth.
He opened his eyes, but it didn't register right away that there was a window in the room, and sunlight was streaming through the curtains. Instead he was staring at the woman curled against him. The other occupant of the bed was forgotten in his shock. It wasn't possible.
"Phoebe!" he said, pulling her into his arms as she made a sleepy noise of protest. She was alive. He didn't understand or care how, but she was alive.
[For the other occupants of the bed. Up early in case I sleep late. In case?]

She got out of the bed, standing between the bed and the door so that she could watch both of them. "And you guys aren't in Fandom, like I said before." That was directed at Veronica.

Date: 2010-03-06 11:06 pm (UTC)"I told you that this was a different world," Phoebe said softly. "I mean, Cole, all you have to do is look at me. In your world I was murdered when I was still a kid. I'm not a kid any longer." She shook her head. "Angel has been one of the good guys for years." Not counting that one time with the accidental... "The Veronica that belongs in this world is human and you're not evil."

Date: 2010-03-06 11:17 pm (UTC)"So now you're an empath?" Phoebe asked with disdain in her voice. "I'm not lying. This is not Fandom and it's the year 2010. The real you isn't a skanky bitch-whore and Cole is a good man who has a nice life here."
She looked at Cole and shook her head. "You can't take me back with you. It won't work that way."

She was watching Veronica, but her next words were directed at Cole. "If that bitch steps one foot into this room I will kill her no matter what she means to you."
