A/N I'm combining two episodes, but next is the Wedding.
"Happy Birthday Buffy!" everyone screamed as Buffy came downstairs the next morning.
"Thanks you guys, this is so sweet." Buffy smiled at her entire group of friends.
"We decided to have the party during the day so that nothing would attack." Xander joked.
"Yes, I am now ready to huge amounts of cake to celebrate your birth." Anya added. "I hope I get as many gifts at my wedding."
Buffy rolled her eyes and noticed that Tara and Willow were on opposite sides of the room. She'd thought they would have talked out there magic problem by now, but it looked like they were still fighting. Anne and Dawn were laughing on the couch and Spike was at the banister following every move she made.
"Well the gangs all here. I wish Giles had made it." Buffy smiled
"He got hung up in England, something about the Watcher's Council." Xander explained. "He said he'd visit soon."
"Not to worry it's all of the good." Buffy smiled at everyone. "Today couldn't be more perfect."
Suddenly there was a knock at the door.
"Riley" Willow gasped as she opened the door, "What?"
"I need Buffy's help with a demon." Riley explained coming into the living room. "Spike."
"Riley, thought you weren't coming back or hoped you wouldn't at any rate." Spike smirked.
"New girl," Riley said looking over at Anne.
"Buffy's time traveling granddaughter," Xander shrugged. "So how you been Riley?"
"Granddaughter?" Riley asked shock.
"Yes, her granddaughter." Anne glared at him. "So where's Sam?"
"Sam?" Everyone asked.
"His first wife, they should be married right now, conceiving the evil jerk that dated my mom before dad. I never liked Max and as far as I'm concerned as his father you're just as bad. Don't get me wrong your second wife and your daughter I like, it's just the males in your family that are ass holes. Let's go destroy those eggs. I know where they are and then you can leave with the door knob hitting you in the butt on the way out." Anne glared standing up and walking to the door. "I'll be back in time for presents you all have fun."
"Well that was weird?" Xander stared at the door where Anne and Riley had left.
"She's just protecting her family from who she sees as a threat." Dawn defended her. "I'm sure she grew up hearing horrible Riley stories."
"Sounds like she heard more Max stories and is misplacing the blame." Spike said wisely. "I wonder what Max did to Tomorrow?"
"Who wants cake?" Anya asked.
