Reappearance

Written by Nessa

Gwen and Angel

"Wow," Gwen said, walking through into Angel's office. "Your security sucks."

Angel looked up from the text he was reading. "Gwen."

"In the flesh." The thief perched on the side of a chair, regarding the vampire through long lashes.

"Mordred, kids?" Angel asked.

Gwen shook her head. "Spike tell you?"

"Yeah." He paused. "I'm sorry."

Gwen waved her hand. "Easy come, easy go, I guess?"

Angel raised his eyebrows at her flip reaction and she shrugged in response.

"Hey, I can't cry forever, you know?" Gwen replied, by way of explanation. "I've shed enough tears over that bastard. I mean, obviously, I would love to see my children again, but you know... guess that's not going to happen for awhile."

Angel nodded. "Moving back?"

"Yeah," she said. "I kept a lot of my old contacts from before and did some work while I was in New York, but I've let a lot of people know that I'm back for good now, so... you know. Busy busy."

"That's good."

"Yeah, should be."
