"Buffy wait up!" Willow Rosenberg yelled across the hall to her best friend .
Buffy Summers turned around smiling to face her best friend. "Hey, what's up Willow?"
"New singer," Willow said enthused.
"Huh? What do you mean new singer? What happened to Andy?" Buffy questioned.
"He decided to travel. The new singer is playing tonight. From what I hear, hes' a hot jerk,"Willow said frowning.
"Why?" Buffy questioned wondering why would he be so bad.
"Buffy, a lot of people have told me that this singer, Angel I think, is a jerk to girls. He treats them like dirt and is never serious to any of them. He uses them. Not the kind of guy that girls like us would want to date," Willow said still frowning. "He's a junior in UC Sunnydale. Anyway I heard he's a good singer so I think we'll live, but remember hot jerk."
"What new hot jerk," Cordelia Chase said stepping up to her two best friends.
"Willow says Andy is out of the picture and Dingo's got a new singer, hot jerk singer," Buffy said looking back at Willow to finish the sentence.
Dingo's was the local band at the Bronze. The shook the bronze basically every night. The singer, Andy Levit, had been the lead singer for seven years. His sudden decision to leave was big news to small town Sunnydale.
"Really? You mean the long haired, un-manicured, freak is finally leaving? It's a miracle!" Cordelia said sarcastically.
"Come on Cordy he wasn't that bad," Willow said laughing.
"I don't know why they even kept him that long, but hey you know that's my opinion. Between you and me, I'd rather see Angel up there. He really isn't that bad, just likes to bring his teenage side out a lot." Cordelia said kind of defending Angel.
"Hey Buffy are you ok?" Willow asked concerned looking at a suddenly pale Buffy.
"Yeah girl, should I get you some foundation?" Cordy agreed.
"I'm fine guys. I'm just tired, that's all," Buffy said assuring her friends that she was ok.
"Oh," Cordelia and Willow said not convinced at all.
"Anyways, I'll see you guys at the bronze tonight. I'm picking up Xander." Cordelia said walking off.
"Yeah, I'll be there as soon as I pick Oz up." Willow said also turning to leave.
Buffy thought back to the day that the three girls had met Alexander Harris and Danny Ozbourne. Buffy had met Willow and Cordelia in the fourth grade when she moved to Sunnydale. The three had become best of friends right away. Their freshman year, they met Oz and Xander. Oz and Xander were fraternal twins and couldn't look and be any different. Xander was very talkative and humerus. He had brown hair and brown eyes. While Oz was very quiet and serious. He had blonde hair and hazel eyes. Oz and Willow had clicked immediately and had been dating ever since. Xander and Cordelia had been a whole other story. They had hated each other to the gut until sophomore year when they suddenly clicked. It was now their junior year and both couples were in love seriously. Buffy on the other hand had dated very little. Something in her life had stopped her from getting too serious, so she wouldn't end up hurting someone.
~~~~~~~RINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG~~~~~~~
Buffy walked to biology miserably. She really wished that her life could be different.

Buffy walked home in silence. She was very pale and tired. She needed a serious nap. She opened her door, walked up the stairs, slumped onto her bed and fell right asleep.
She woke up at exactly 8:00 P.M. *Wow that was a very long nap* She thought to herself. Buffy did some homework and got ready for the bronze. She pulled out a black miniskirt and a matching blue halter top. Buffy put on black high-heels. Next she put her hair up in a messy bun. Then finally she added a little blue eyeshadow and clear lip gloss. She looked fantastic and started towards the bronze.
Buffy walked to the bronze thinking about Andy and the new singer. People had been talking about him all day. Apparently she was sick of hearing that hes' hot and the kind of bad boy cool. She knew a new singer was big news in Sunnydale but was very tired of hearing his name where ever she went.
"Excuse me? ID please?" the man said snapping Buffy out of her thoughts.
She showed the man her school ID and walked into the bronze. It was so crowded but out of all the shouting, she heard this amazingly sexy voice...singing. She followed it and found the hottest guy in the world. He was incredibly handsome and seemed flawless. He had perfect skin tone. His perfect, brown, silky hair stood in spikes. His brown, chocolate, warm eyes looked down at the crowd and suddenly caught the gaze of Buffy's sparkling hazel ones. He smiled at her and continued to sing.
"Looks like the hottest guy ever has a crush on you," Cordelia said coming up behind Buffy. "Buffy if you know what's good for you then believe me. Stay away from him. Far away. He's nothing but trouble."
"Does Xander know you go around calling guys hot?" Buffy said laughing.
"No and I'd like to keep it that way," Cordelia said also laughing.
Willow came up behind them and her mouth dropped open. "Wow! Who...who's...who's he?"
"Ok you hormone freaks remember? You both are in love." Buffy said rolling her eyes and they all laughed.
Buffy couldn't stop staring at Angel the whole night, and she noticed how he would steel glances at her. Every time she looked into his eyes she felt that there was something more than a wild teenager in there. She had to admit that he was the hottest and best singer she had every seen. *God, Buffy stop. Don't look into what you can't ever have. I can't have love ever. Looking at it will only make me want it more.* She thought to herself. She quickly tore her eyes away from Angel.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Angel and Oz talking
"Oz, who's that pretty blonde girl?" Angel asked his fellow guitarist while switching songs.
Oz tried to make it sound precise to Angel, knowing how he treated girls, without actually saying it. "That's one of my really good friends. She's been my girlfriend's friend forever," Oz stated basically saying that you fall for her and hurt her, I'll kill you.
He knew Angel wasn't exactly good at commitment, but wasn't worried about him as much about Buffy. He knew she had let very few people into her life, and she hid something from all of them and would act as if nothing was there to hide. She looked as if she'd rather die than tell her friends what she was hiding. Willow, Xander, Cordelia, and he were very concerned about Buffy.
