Love You Not -From my very own 6th season of Buffy. Check out my other episodes Ally, Alive, Blue Boy and Behind Close Shadows.

Previously on Buffy the Vampire Slayer Buffy finally sleeps with Xander. Casandra's Father, retired watcher, comes to Sunnydale. Buffy breaks up with Damon.

A week later, as the sun rises, Buffy and Xander sneak down stairs. Xander sits walks over to the sofa and slips off his shoes. Buffy keeps watch by the staircase to make sure that no one comes downstairs. Xander takes off his shirt and Buffy gets distracted a little. Xander grabs the blankets and covers himself. Buffy sees that he is covered and walks over to his side.

"Xander, I want to be open about our relationship," says Buffy grabbing his hand.

"So do I," replies Xander. "I want Spike to know first." Xander gives Buffy a grin.

"Xander," Buffy says.

"I've waited a long time for us to be here," says Xander. "I think that everyone will take it alright. Hey, Willow would probably be really happy for both of us." Buffy sits on Xander's lap.

"You think," says Buffy. Xander nods his head and kisses her on her lips. Buffy gives him and smile.

They then hear someone coming down the stairs and they both look towards the stairs. They see as Ann come down the stairs. She sees them both on the sofa.

"Buffy I didn't know you get up so early," says Ann. Buffy looks at Ann and she accidentally falls off the sofa.

"Buffy," both Xander and Ann say.

"I'm fine," replies Buffy getting up. "Ann. You always get up this early?" Buffy walks over to Ann.

"Yes," replies Ann. The two girls head towards the kitchen. "I love to cook. It's one of the main reasons why your father married me."

"Really," says Buffy as she sits down on one of the stoles in the kitchen. "Well, the cooking I do is with Mr. Microwave."

"It really isn't that hard Buffy. You first start with following recipes." Ann takes out milk and butter out of the frig. "Then you'll go by taste adding a little of this a little of that."

"What are you making?"

"Pancakes."

"Oh. Goody."

Meanwhile, underground hidden in the shadows, a dark figure with green eyes walks through the sewers. In his hands is a picture of Buffy and begins to say a incantation. Smoke flows throw the sewer and out of the vents into the neighborhood.

After breakfast, Buffy goes over to Giles. Xander stays with Dawn, while Hank and Ann go out to buy a new car.

Dawn comes down the stairs and sees Xander sitting on the sofa watching TV. He flips through the channels then turns off the TV.

"Hey," says Dawn as she sits down with her CD player.

"Dawny," says Xander. Dawn gives Xander her CD player.

"I made the CD myself at school."

"So this is what you do instead of school work." Xander gives Dawn one of his signature smirks. "Good girl." Dawn laughs and grabs a teen magazine from the coffee table. Xander then lays on the sofa and closes his eyes.

At Giles, Buffy enters with a serious face. Giles walks over to his living room and Buffy follows him.

"Giles there's something I want to tell you," says Buffy. Giles stops and turns around to face Buffy. "First, yesterday what you said about wishing that I was your daughter really touched me."

"What you said touched me too," says Giles as he takes off his glasses.

"Giles I confide in you." Buffy turns around then walks a few steps around the sofa. "Me and Xander are together."

"What? What about Damon?"

"We broke up, sort of. He knows and he likes Casandra."

"It's a little fast."

"I know but…You're the first person I told about this Giles." Giles turns around then he begins to cough as some smoke enters his system.

"That's just like you Buffy." Giles turns around to face Buffy and puts on his glasses.

"Giles, what are you saying?"

"You don't think Buffy. You do things irrationally and they seem to always come blowing up in your face."
"Giles. Why…" Buffy's eyes begin to fill with tears.

"You are such a selfish girl. You only think about yourself."

"I'm not selfish!" Buffy tears come streaming out like a waterfall. "Giles, why are you saying this to me?"

"Because it's true Buffy. All of it." He walks away from her. "You are a self absorbed, spoiled girl." He then turns and looks at her.

"I'm not going to take this from you Giles." Buffy voice seems to crack as she turns around and to walks out of the apartment.

"Oh, yes as you always do. Run away from things you can't handle." Buffy stops at the door way. "You know Buffy if you were a little more responsible you wouldn't as much." Buffy close her eyes and walks out leaving the door open.

As she walks down the street she couldn't hold it in and begins to cry hysterically. Then she tries to compose herself and sees the people who walk by her look at her in a bad way. A little girl stops in front Buffy and sticks her tongue out at her. Buffy is confuse by this and walks over to her house as fast as she can.

She enters the house and sees Dawn coming down the stairs with an attitude. Buffy takes off her jacket and a faces Dawn.

"What's your problem?" ask Dawn with an attitude.

"Dawn," says Buffy confuse why Dawn would ask her with such an attitude.

"You think you're the center of the world Buffy. Well, you're not." Buffy is shock by this.

"Dawny."

"Don't Dawny me. I hate it when you call me that. I hate you!" Dawn runs upstairs leaving Buffy alone and hurt. Buffy's tears return as she turns to the living room and sees Xander on the sofa. He quickly notices Buffy's tears and takes off the headphones.

"Buffy, what's wrong?" ask Xander as he walks over to her. Suddenly out of no where Buffy punches Xander in the nose almost breaking it. Xander falls on the sofa with blood spurting out of his nose.

"Ouch." Xander looking up at Buffy. "Why did you do that?"

"Oh Xander please don't hate me," says Buffy still in tears.

"Buffy I don't hate you." Xander gets off the sofa. "I love you." Buffy stops, looks at Xander and hugs him really tight. Xander is confuse and pulls away from Buffy holding his nose up.
