"we could do that later if it's okay" Lilith smiled then blushed brightly when he asked her what she was thinking about. "W-well... t-to be honest... I was thinking about us Angel." she smiled with a bright blush.

He blushed lightly and smiled. "What exactly about us?" he asked being curious. He was curious about what she was thinking about. "Yeah, lateris fine by me." he said.

"W-well... I mean we've gotten really close... and we both love each other right? I-I kinda... f-feel like we should... maybe... take our relationship to the next level?" she blushed brightly just at the thought but tried to give a reassuring smile.

He blushed brightly and held her closely. "We are very close and I do love you. I feel that if you wanted to I'd have no problem with that but this is all so new to me I'm happy with your company and affection for me. And beinghonest I-i was actually thinking of..... well um.....at least talkingto you..... about that too..." he got really bright red. "If you want to and I want to......I think we should."

"R-really?" Lilith smiled still blushing rather brightly but seemed pretty happy at his comment about wanting to be close to her like that, it made her so happy.

He looked into her eyes, his face inches from hers and smiled "Really." he said and kissed her softly and slowly hold her face on onesaid with his hand. This kiss felt better than any they'd sharedso far. He pulled her closer and smiled into the kiss. He hoped this told her he really did want her to be happy and with him as much as she can be.

Lilith blushed and smiled lovingly before kissing him back curling her fingers in his hair lightly holding herself close to him and was so willing to give herself over to him and to become his.

(time skip? to maybe two days later or something and he has to go out on a job or something that's when she gets caught?

A few days later he finds out from Trish that he had a package. I contained a kill order, it was said to have arrived yesterday, he was out with Lilith and Kai looking for Thomas, he was certainly elusive when he wanted to be. Though they found him and he seemed happy to know that Lilith was okay. The mark was a days ride away and he saw the picture recognizing him. A very dangerous mark, he knew him to be evil. He went into the room to start getting his stuff together. He knew that she wouldn't be happyconsidering they had gotten a lot closer in the last few days. He'd tell her when she was in the room. The bag with his weapons and camping and survival gear were packed and he sighed. This sucked. He wished she could go with him but that would only cause problems. He only hoped this mark wouldn't be to difficult to catch.

"So what was that package about?" Lilith asked once she was done talking to Thomas and made it back to hers and Angel's room hoping it wasn't anything big but frowned when she saw that he was packing and didn't like this already.

He looked at her with a face that was unreadable. "I've been hired to go after a very dangerous demon, and I'mgoing to take him alive. The only thing that hurts is I cant take you with me, this is making up in that holds eyes for setting you free. And you being there wouldn't be safe at all. I'll be back in a week at the most and then we can do what ever you want. I'll have plenty of money from catching this guy." he said. He hugged her and let her see that he meant what he said. "You know I'm not happy either but this place actually tends to send me after thouse who hurt others with the intention of it, and not from self defense."

"You're... leaving and I can't come?" Lilith asked with a sad frown clearly upset by the thought but slowly nodded and hugged him tightly. "Please... be careful okay? I really don't want you hurt... I love you" she frowned before moving to kiss him lovingly on the lips hoping he would be okay then gave him a good bye bite not taking much but enough that she would be okay for about a week, which was how much she normally took. She then easily kissed and licked his neck where she bit to seal the wounds.

He smiled at the good bye and hugged her back kissing her back lovingly. "I will come back to you in one piece my love." he said and hugged her tightly to him. He loved the way she smelt and felt. He would mis her while he was gone.

"I love you" she said softly after kissing him and gave him another loving hug before backing off hoping he would be okay. "You better." she grinned a little bit.

He smiled andpicked up his bag. "Be careful." he said andhesitantly left the room. He mounted Kai and sent her in the direction of his last known location. This mark was going to be to be fun to catch. He may have to cut his arms off and the ligaments in his ankles so he cant walk. It took a couple of days to find him but thats what he did andhe brought him tothe fortress with his arms in a bag and he got paid then went back to the inn as fastashe could. He was excited to see her after the week he'd had. It was too long and he missed her already. He hoped she was alright and had fun.

Lilith had spent allot of time with Trish getting to know her better but also went out to find Thomas. As she had left though someone gassed her with condensed holy water knocking her out quickly and painfully. The woman grinned before finding the pouch that had the shrunken house in and took Lilith deep into the woods where she set up the house and made an area under the bedroom where she put a coffin that contained a fair amount of holy water, but it wouldn't be enough to kill Lilith, just keep her in excruciating pain. "Don't worry, I'll take good care of your lover... you might even hear him having some fun." The woman smirked and Lilith screamed trying to attack the woman but was instantly dropped into the coffin that was sealed tight with purrified silver chains then put the thick wood back over it and made sure there was a small hole that would let air in through for her. She then moved the bed over the area and grinned as she heard Lilith screaming for her to let her out. "Oh what's that? Don't worry I'll be the only one that can hear you, there's a spell on that coffin and only I can hear or sense it or whatever is in it, so scream all you like" the woman laughed before shifting making herself look, sound and sense just like Lilith without flaw. She easily made her way to the inn and spoke with Trish a bit before heading to the room to wait. She had watched Lilith for some time so she knew exactly how she acted.

(sorry it took so long hope it's okay)

(its good)

Angel got back and sensed her in the room and smiled running up to the room and dropped his back as he hugged Lilith and kissed her deeply. "I've missed youso much my love." he said smiling and held her close. Kai sent thoughts to himbut he ignored them being happy to be with her. she was as beautiful as ever. "How have you been my love? Trish took good care of you I hope."

"Angel, how I have missed you!" Lil smiled as she hugged and kissed him back deeply enjoying the kiss greatly. "I have been good, all except for missing your of course. Yes we spent quite some time together and I found thomas." she smiled easily before leading him to the bed so they could sit and talk. "I also set back up the house... I was thinking... maybe we could move in there together? I mean... there's allot of room there compared to here you know." she pointed out with a smile since Lilith and Angel had talked about it before. "How was the trip though? you and Kai aren't hurt are you?" she asked sounding worried.

He sat on the bed and sighed happily. "Me and Kai are fine, she's resting in the stables." he said and thought about the house thing. "You know what we have gotten close enough for that, I'd like to move in there with you." he said happily. They had had this discussion before once or twice but he wasn't sure, now he was. And he would rather enjoy living with her in an actual house.

"that's good I'm glad you're both okay." she smiled then it got even bigger when she heard him and hugged him. "Oh Angel that makes me so happy. I already have the house set up in a new place and everything I hope you don't mind." she smiled easily and happily.

He smiled and kissed her. "Not at all, is it in a nice scenic area?" he asked curiously. "Is it close to town so I can keep in touch with Trish?" He didn't want to be too far from his only friend. Kai sent him a thought that he persieved as suspicon about Lilith and he reassured her that Lilith was fine. "When did you want to move there?"

"It's not far and it over looks a very nice meadow" she smiled then thought some. "I would really like to move as soon as possible." she said honestly hoping she was still acting right but was sure she was.

He smiled happily. He thought it was a little strange that she wasn't blushing about having asked him to move in with her again. Though he ignored that. He nodded and agreed. Most of my stuff is packed, mind helping me pack the rest?" he asked kissing her softly. He thought that she should know how he packs by now.

"I would be happy to help you pack" Lil smiled and since she had been watching them for awhile now she pretty much knew how they worked and what they did so she was sure she could convince him.

As they packed he notice little thinkgs wereoff about how she packed the rst of his things with him but they were ready to go in no time and He got Kai ready and Mounted here than held his hand down to her. Kai stayed still for Angel but sent thoughts to him again and he reassured her again and she became less noticably restless. "We're already love." he said to her.

"Great" Lil smiled before taking his hand and got up on Kai hoping she wouldn't cause any issues. She then told Angel where she had set up the house and mentally grinned at the thought of the torture that this would put Lilith through before she would start digging into Angel.
