3rd Person's POV
"Angel?"
The shadowy figure steps out into the light with a slight frowns as they stare at her in worry.
"Hey... you're awake."
Laney slowly sits up being careful of the wires connected to her chest and hand. She frowns tilting her head to side.
"I guess... I don't... what happened? Do you know?"
Angelus hides a smirk as he shifts a little closer to her. He takes her hand into his as he looks down at her in fake concern.
"You fell... down a flight of stairs. Nobody knows how. Something bad happened too. They... you know Buffy and Xander, Giles... they might not talk about what happened to make sure you are okay mentally..."
Laney raises an eyebrow still frowning, "What? What happened?"
"Jenny... she's gone."
Laney feels a tear fall as her eyes full with tears, "W-what? How? What? I'm so confused."
"It was... a monster. Something so bad. So evil... I don't know if they're going to be able to stop it." Angel says as he brings his hand to her cheek wiping a tear from her face.
Laney shakes her head slightly, "Well w-what is it? I'm sure they... we can. Is it Spike? Did he find another big bad?"
Angelus feels his face twitch slightly as he hears Spike's name leave her lips.
"Bigger... badder."
Laney sighs and looks to her left. She smiles seeing a vase of roses. A few red and a few white.
"Buffy will figure it out. She always does..."
Angelus chuckles lowly while moving his hand form her face. He watches as her hand grips his quickly as she still looks at the flowers.
"Beautiful aren't they?"
Laney snaps her head over to Angelus and smiles, "Mhmm. There's no card though."
"I'm glad you like them. I figured you didn't really need a waste of paper. When you woke up I would just tell you to your face."
Laney grins widely as she stares at who she believed to be her best friend.
"Tell me what Angel?"
"I'm not-"
"Supposed to be in here."
Laney looks towards the door seeing a nurse stand in the doorway smiling slightly. Angelus rolls his eyes before smiling charmingly and turning to the nurse.
"Visiting hours over already?"
The nurse nods, "I'll give you a few more minutes but then I have to make sure this one is okay."
