Why this must be read:

This is my Sekrit OTP. I´m a die-hard B/A fan, but this particular pairing tickles my fancy like no other. And this story is worth reading for the ending surprise twist alone.

“He used to talk about Rome sometimes.” Her fingertips danced across the windowpane. “Rome, Paris, London, Madrid. Not a lot, because god forbid he say anything to remind me of that little 200-year age difference. He was so stupid sometimes,” she said, smiling a little.

“He’s not on our side anymore,” Wesley said, setting the crossbow aside.

“You don’t think I know that?” Buffy snapped. “God, Wes, who here’s actually killed Angel once already? At least this time you’re not drugging up a Slayer and feeding her to him.”
