I wake up the next morning, Giles looking over me. I had the same dream as I had that night I spent at Jake's.
"You okay?" Giles asked worriedly.
"Yeah, yeah fine." I said, wiping sweat off of my forehead. "Just a, uh... weird dream." I answered, looking back at him. I yawned and he shook his head.
"Shouldn't be staying out so late with random boys. C'mon, get ready for school."

Jake didn't drive me to school, Giles did. He dropped me off two blocks away from school and I walked the rest of the way.

I found it somewhat ironic that Jasper wasn't at school for the past few days...

I left school, walking the whole way back to Giles'. I didn't hear anything from Jake, and was beginning to worry. When I got home, I phoned Jake on his house phone.

"Hello?" I heard Billy's voice answer.
"Hey Billy. It's Buffy. Jake In?" I said rather fast.
"Uh, At the moment, Buffy, he's sleeping. I'll get him to call you. 'Bye."
He hung up on me. Weird.

Jake never called me back. Must have been really tired.

I figured since I wasn't spending tonight with Jake, I should go out patrolling. I figured that if I scanned the area within a 10 kilometre radius of the Cullens' manor, I'd be fine, and probably avoid any of the Cullens. Guess I was right about that.

One whole month passes. Jake doesn't ring me, Billy refuses to let me see him, saying he's sick, my arm's healing faster than it usually would, and my ribs are almost fully healed. No longer do I need to wear a brace around my stomach, and I now only need a brace on my arm, or so my doctor says. Another ironic happening: Carlisle wasn't my doctor.

Giles was getting closer to his lady friend Miss George were getting closer, and Giles was spending less time at home, and more time with her. I was feeling more and more isolated every day. I never really re-kindled my friendship with Angela, though we did talk about Willow every now and then. I was beginning to think maybe Willow and Angela were more than just 'Camp Buddies'. Or maybe 'Camp Buddies' had another meaning.

Maybe it was just me being superstitious, but there was only at the most three Cullens coming to school per day. One was always Edward, but I could've sworn, in that whole month, Jasper was only there twice. Very Superstitious.
