Buffy gave a weak smile. "I have decided to sing My Life Because I have recently realized that I am in love with someone that some of my family doesn't approve of, so I am here to tell them that you can't help who you love and that well this is my life and they are gonna have to adjust."
The music started playing and she looked at her family and started singing.
"Got a call from an old friend
We used to be real close
Said he couldn't go on the American way
Closed the shop, sold the house
Bought a ticket to the West Coast
Now he gives them a stand-up routine in L.A."
She looked at Xander and her eyes remained on him.
"I don't need you to worry for me cause I'm alright
I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home
I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life
Go ahead with your own life, and leave me alone."
She then looked at Willow and smiled softly.
"I never said you had to offer me a second chance
I never said I was a victim of circumstance
I still belong, don't get me wrong
And you can speak your mind
But not on my time."
Then she looked at Angel who had a odd look on his face.
"They will tell you, you can't sleep alone
In a strange place
Then they'll tell you, you can't sleep
With somebody else
But sooner or later you sleep
In your own space
Either way it's okay
You wake up with yourself."
She took in the entire group again as she finished the song off.
"I don't need you to worry for me cause I'm alright
I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home
I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life
Go ahead with your own life, and leave me alone."
The music ended and she walked back to the table and sat next to Spike who looked smug. Xander turned to Buffy and with narrowed eye's said. "It's about time you told us to stop interfering and that you will love who you love."
Buffy was shocked as their were agreements all around the table. They sat for a while longer and then left the same way they came in everyone, stopped and looked at them.
The End
