Buffy
gets this wonderful Cross from Angel in the very first episode. Its the first
time Buffy meets Angel... Later when she recognized that he is a Vampire they
are kissing passionately in the Bronze and Buffy´s Cross is burning into Angels
skin with the words "love hurts". Its symbolic for their relationship.
This
ring is a typical Irish ring for friendship or worn as wedding ring. In
season 2 Angel gives a Claddagh ring to Buffy for her 17th birthday. In a
later episode, another suitor, Scott, also attempts to give Buffy a Claddagh,
which she rejects, because it remains her on Angel. She decides than to lay
this ring down on the place she killed him...where he later comes back from
hell.
