Finally, it was Friday! Buffy literally threw herself onto her bed in her dorm, exhausted after just two hours of class – she hadn't slept at all the night before. It was all for a good cause though – today was Friday!
Thursday night, she had forgone patrolling to finish up all her assignments before the weekend. College was just as bad as school – worse, because she knew she didn't actually have to be here! It was a good job that the slayer normally only needed four hours sleep maximum each night, and could function quite happily for nearly a week with no sleep (it was insurance for apocalypses).
The two hours she had had in the last two nights was enough to give her enough energy to behave normally, while feeling tired because there was no adrenaline rush to keep her going. When she was trying to save the world, Buffy would normally sleep solidly for two days before being back to normal – whatever normal was for the slayer. And that had only happened, what three, four times? Not nearly a large enough number to make a complete scientific analysis, as willow or Giles would say.
But now, all of her assignments, bar the one she had gotten today, were done, and she still had three hours before dawn finished school, and another hour on top of that before her mother left. Then, it was yet another hour until she could be in LA. Six hours was a long time when waiting to see the love of your life …
Two hours later, she had no assignments, but was still cursing whoever thought that weekends should be the time when lots of work was given out. The only thing she had left to do college wise was an essay and some reading. The essay, she wouldn't bother with until she felt like it, and the reading could be done at any old time, including curled up with her honey on Saturday afternoon, when he could go out, and she had no wish to.
As angry as she had been with her mother for leaving her and dawn alone again, and for insinuating that Angel couldn't take care of them both, she was eternally grateful that she was going away for the weekend – it would mean she could spend some quality time with her honey even if dawn was there!
At this point, I fell asleep at my laptop … now I have no idea what I was about to say – sorry. I honestly can't write at any other time – it's a sickness.
My Laptop is broken, so I now have to wait my turn to use the main computer (whatever isnt work gets pushed to the end of the que). Who knows when i will be able to update regularly again! I might manually write things out, but even so, it will be a long wait methinks, so don't hold your breath!
