Lay Me Down To Sleep
by James

Wesley loves Angel. He loves having sex with Angel, loves working alongside him, spending long hours talking with him. He loves the way Angel moves when he thinks no one can see him.

He reminds himself of all those things, recalls every moment he can, afterwards. After they've made love and Wesley has rolled over onto his side to sleep, he tells himself he is happy, and in love, and that he has everything he needs except world peace, or fewer apocalypses.

But when sleep refuses to come, as it always does, he moves on to reminding himself that Angel can tell. Angel can feel him, can smell him, and knows exactly what Wesley is feeling. It is something Angel is all too familiar with, and nothing he could possibly mistake.

But he cannot control it. He cannot defeat it, and every time they've settled in to sleep, Angel rolls onto his side as well, and wraps himself around him. Spooned up behind and he falls fast asleep as only the dead can be, and Wesley is left only with his fear.
