Caleb and Dawn

Soon after Pogue and Kate left the table to dance Dawn and Caleb decided to join them. They began dancing to a slow song that Kate had put in, Dawn was resting her head on Calebs shoulder feeling butterflies in her stomach.

Caleb enjoyed having Dawn in his arms and wanted to keep her there as long as humanly possible.

As much as he was enjoying their dance Caleb decided to break the silence, and ask his own questions, "So why move to Ipswich? It's a little late in the quarter to be transfering and not have your grandes slip, not that I mind having you here."

Caleb aspired to get into Harvard one day and he knew something like transferring late in the school year could only hurt your GPA and therefore you're standing with the Ivies. Dawn Summers appeared to be a smart girl which made her decision even more perplexing.

Dawn looked up from his shoulder, the mood broken, "Actually moving to Spencer was my sister's idea, she thought I could get a better education here."

"You're sister?" Caleb's brow furrowed, "Do your parents usually heed her advice?"

Suddenly Dawn shifted uncomfortably, "My mom died a few years ago and good old Dad ran off with his secretary and has been persona non grata ever since. Buffy's been my legal guardian for awhile now."

Caleb look ashamed, "Dawn I'm sorry I shouldn't have…"

"Caleb it's okay, it doesn't hurt to talk about it anymore and you couldn't have known." Dawn smiled up at him He's cute when he's worried, the way his brow starts to scrunch up like that, very adorable.

Crash!

Dawn and Caleb broke eye contact as they heard the sound of glass shattering near the tables.


Pool Tables

"If you don't mind me asking what made you decide to transfer to Spencer with Dawn and Cally? They don't seem like the type of girls you'd be friends with," Reid asked Eliza as they began to set up the pool table.

Eliza laughed, "I could say the same thing about you and the rest of those guys."

Reid came up to Eliza shifting his weight on the pool stick, "I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours."

Eliza calmly mimicked his previous actions and said, "Me and Cally owe a lot to Dawns sister and she refused to let precious Dawny transfer here alone."

Eliza leaned in so close to Reid she was pressed up against him, "Between you and me I think she was afraid for her virtue."

Both Eliza and Reids eyes dared to the now slow dancing Caleb and Dawn and burst out laughing.

"Besides Dawn isn't so bad, at least she knows how to have a good time. Callys too into the rules, now tell me your story."

"Hmmm," Reid speculated a part of him wanted to chuck the small talk altogether and ravish Eliza right then and there, but he resisted doing so.

"Our families have pretty much grown up together for generations. It would be shocking if we weren't friends."

"Now Reid you don't strike me as a guy steeped in tradition," Eliza teased.

"And you don't strike me as a girl who owes anyone anything."

"Touché." Eliza found herself wanting to unravel Reid Garwins mysteries and that scared her. She didn't get attached and she had a feeling neither did he.

"Leave him alone asshole!" Someone shouted, what caught Eliza's attention and therefore Reids was that the voice sounded like Callys.


Table/ Cally and Tyler

"You'd better stay the fuck down Simms!" Aaron shouted at Tyler.

But Callys screams invigorated Tyler's sense of honor so he lunged at the bully and it wasn't long before ea crowd started to gather.

Tyler's fellow Sons were pushing through the crowd toward him before he knew it they were pulling him off of Aaron. Aaron himself was, surprisingly being held back by Cally. He struggled to break free but the blond was overpowering him.

"I'm fine let me go," Cally released him from her grasp and Aaron headed for the door with his entourage. "You can have that stupid bitch anyway, she look like she has a stick up her ass." He yelled as he was almost out the door.

Now it took all three of his friends to hold Tyler back. "Oh my god are you okay?" Cally asked checking his wounds not that he felt too bad once her hands were on him.

"Are you okay? He was being a real asshole, I'm sorry you had to meet Spencer's reigning jackass so soon."

The crowd had started to disburse and Tyler's friends release him, seeing that Cally had him under control they went back to what they had been doing previously.

"Tyler! What was that! From Reid or Pogue I'd expect this kind of thing to happen but you?" A barely man came up to them looking very upset.

"Sorry Niki, Aaron upset my friend here and my temper got the best of me. Don't worry I'll pay for whatever damage we may have caused." The barely man nodded at Tyler's assurance and walked away in a huff.

Callys eyes widened, "I'm sorry Tyler I should take care of this not you. At least let me help you pay for the damages."

Tyler held his hand up to silence her, "Trust me Cally that won't be necessary."

"But…"

"It won't, really."

"Fine, okay," Callys eyes brightened, "I know, let me take you back to the dorms, your wounds are gonna need to be taken care of."

Although Tyler Simms was a gentlemen he wasn't about to pass up the opportunity to be along with Cally in her Dorm room.

"Yeah, you could do that let me just give my keys to Reid to drive my car back to school."

They walked over to Reid and Eliza who were half playing pool and half flirting with one another.

"Hey Reid could you take my car back to school?" Tyler's eyes Eliza, "But don't do anything besides drive in it okay Reid."

Reid gave him an innocent look, "Sure baby boy, I mean what else can you do in a car besides drive it? You just go get cleaned up." Tyler handed him the keys and Reid patted him on the back before bringing his attention back to Eliza.

When each of the couples was out of earshot of one another both told their respective slayers, "I've never seen him act like that over a girl."
