Buffy stood up. "You want a drink?" She asked softly.
Oz simply looked up to her and nodded his head.
Buffy walked over to the mini fridge and took out two cans of 'Sprite' and handed one to Oz.
"So," she started. "We're going to be spending a lot of time together, huh? I think we should know each other more, 'cause this silence thing is uber weird."
Oz looked over at her sitting in the chair across from him, and couldn't help but smile. "Okay," he said. "You first."
"Sure!" She replied. "Well you know my name, but my full name is Buffy Anne Summers. My mom and dad split up a few years ago, about the time that I became the slayer. I was living in L.A. at the time, and moved here two years ago and well...you know all about the freaky Halloweens, blowing the judge up, Angel, Spike and blowing up of the high school so...your turn."
Oz nodded. "Okay, well my name is actually Daniel Osbourne. I got Oz from Devon my freshman year of high school because of my last name. I have no brothers or sisters, and I never knew my dad. My mom died when I was 15, and I have been living alone since then. My uncle fixed it so Social Services doesn't know and he's my legal guardian now. The only relatives I know are my Uncle Ken and cousin Jordy. After my mom died I went through depression, and Devon says that I never fully recovered...and that's who you see before you."
Buffy had no reply, she just lowered her head.
"Hey," Oz said. "Don't feel bad for me, I don't."
With that Buffy walked over to Oz and hugged him. "No wonder why you don't show your emotions," she whispered.
She pulled back and looked into Oz's eyes. "I'm sorry."
Neither Buffy or Oz knew who started the kiss, but Oz was the one who broke it.
"I-I need to talk to Willow..." Oz said, but Buffy silenced him with another short kiss. "Alright." Buffy said and sat back down in her chair.
Buffy opened the book, and Oz stood up. "I'm going for a walk." He stated without looking at her and walked out. Buffy sighed and continued reading.
