Disclaimer: I own nothing. Not even the idea. The wonderful missbliss sent
me this challenge and even though AU's aren't my thing, I had to give it
go.
AN: Totally AU. Angel is the new kid at school. Buffy is average, not a snob or a dork or an outcast, just average.
AN2: I will post the challenge when the story ends.
AN3: I like Tara, so I put her in the story. But Willow isn't gay, she's with Oz.
Feedback: Please, my first attempt at AU. Like I said, it's not really my thing.
Distribution: ASK FIRST!
============================================================= OF NEW KIDS AND TAMPONS Buffy Summers was your average kid. She wasn't the most popular person in school. She wasn't a huge dork. On normal days, she wasn't even noticed except by her circle of close friends: Willow Rosenburg, Tara Maclay, Faith Micheals, 'Oz' Osbourne, and Xander Harris. She just passed through the halls, living her life and, unlike most people, enjoying it.
She was perfectly happy with her life, not even the lack of a boyfriend bothered her. Until the day that all changed, the day Angel McConnels entered through the schools doors for his first time.
The moment he walked into the school, she felt as if the air had been sucked out of the room. He was breathtakingly handsome and his nervous smile was adorable. She couldn't help but stare at him. Thankfully, she was not the only one.
"Oh- my- GOD!" Willow whispered in Buffy's ear, drawing out each word.
On her other side, Faith, who was less shy, let out a loud whistle and simply stated "Yummy!" as he passed.
When Angel turned around in response to the whistle, or possibly the remark, Buffy found herself staring into his deep chocolate eyes. He smiled as she blushed slightly and winked at her before saying to Faith:
"Take that as a compliment."
Faith was taken slightly aback as he chuckled and continued walking away. Willow was trying to keep from laughing at Faith's reaction and Tara was smiling secretly.
"Somehow, that's not the first impression I would have picked, Faith" Buffy laughed when he was gone.
"Better than Cordelia's," Xander stated as he and Oz walked up to them.
The four girls stared at him.
"Assuming you vixens are talking about the new kid," Xander amended. "Which I know you are because Buffy's about to fall over."
"Fine, you caught us," Tara said softly.
"See, told you," Xander said.
"So what was that about Cordelia's first impression being worse than ours?" Faith asked, never passing up an occasion to gain one on Cordelia Chase.
"Well you see," Oz began in his usual monotone voice. "He had just rounded the corner and apparently she had dropped her purse."
"Yeah," Xander jumped in. "And you know she's always carrying her entire closet in there. Well, anyway, this week just happened to be her monthly visit form her good Aunt Flow."
"So she was carrying tampons and they flew all over the hall," Oz supplied.
"And then the new guy happened to step on one and fell into her," Xander continued. "She was about ready to chew him out for touching her and then she got the goofy cow look on her face and was about to start flirting right there, her hands full of clothes and pens-"
"And tampons."
"And tampons," Xander continued. "Until he said, and I quote, 'Some people go out of their way to met someone new' before handing her a tampon. Then he picked up his bag and walked off. Cordelia was mortified!"
"It was pretty masterful," Oz concluded.
"I'm liking the new kid!" Buffy said between peals of laughter.
"Oh, I am so gonna use that on Cordy! Thank you Mr. Mystery!" Faith shouted.
"Gotta admit, I never thought I'd see the day when Cordelia would screw up like that," Tara said, laughing also.
"OH! CRAP!" Willow yelled, hearing the bell. "We're gonna be late!"
The six friends flew down the hall and entered their homeroom a few seconds after the tardy bell rang.
"So nice of you to join us," Ms. Calendar said, motioning for them to take their seats.
The only problem was, someone was sitting in Buffy's seat.
