****The Slip Up****

Buffy's eyes shot up from there current resting place on her plate to the wide eyes stares of her friends. The widest of the group belonged to Zander which would have been comical if not for the serious situation that had just been brought up.

'Maybe she didn't hear me' thought Zander 'please… don't let her have heard, but of course she heard me stupid slayer hearing and look at me and my big mouth she is so going to kick my ass"

Zander was brought back from his mind rambling to the sound of what could have been the loud thing he had ever heard and he has heard a lot hangin' with Buffy and all the slayage they had don over the years.

"What?!?!" Buffy practically screamed, she threw her silver wear down on the table and with the use of her slayer ability was up and out of her chair before the others could blink. Once Zander noticed that they had one very pissed off slayer on their hand jumped out of his chair like he had been shot to hide behind the safety of Willow for protection.

"Nothing! I said nothing! What did I say again Willow I can't remember? Oh now I remember NOTHING?" Zander continued to ramble on and on until he peaked from behind Willow's chair to look at Buffy.

'Angel was here…why didn't he come see me… doesn't he still love me…. He could have at least said " hey glad to see you still breathing I'm going back to LA' Buffy thought her mind reeling from the thought over load going on in her brain.

Tears gather at sides of Buffy's eyes. Her tear filled gaze lock onto Zander since he was the one who after all brought up the current subject of their conversation.

"Zander" Buffy said calmly trying to keep her emotion in check, what with her tears threatening to fall and she could feel the tell tell signs of her bottom lip begin to quiver. 'Stop it slayer's lips do not quiver! You are the Slayer stop it and stop it now!' she thought to herself. Her spine straightening and now she was ready for what was to come. "Zander… I heard what you said. Angel was here? When was he here?" asked Buffy quietly.

"Buffy he told me not to tell you. I think he was right I mean look at you now when you haven't even seen him you're crying and mad as hell. Think if you did see what would it be like now after he left would you been down here having Thanksgiving dinner with us, or would you been up in your room crying youreyes out all night?" Zander threw the question at her like darts on a dart board pinning her to the wall and making her think about the answers to them.

"Zander you have no right to ask me that! You have no idea what it is like to be responsible for the pain and suffering of your friends. To know that the person you love you can never have and if you ever slip up and that you could kill hundreds if not thousands of people. You don't know what it is like to wake up every day and see you lovers eyes when you ran them through with a sword! DO YOU? Because if you do you're handling it WAY better them I am right now so if you will excuse me I have to go kill something. RIGHT NOW!" Buffy finished her tirade onZander grabbed her stake as she walk out the door. She slammed the door so hard the pictures shook on the wall.

READ AND REVIEW PLEASE!!!!
