"Calm down man" Xander said to Liam "That's not her boyfriend, that's her
brother. I think, he used to look a lot smaller before he went to the army.
"
"Sorry, I just would have felt really stupid trying to flirt with her and she already has a boyfriend" Liam said softly.
"That ok" Willow said. "Besides, I happen to know very well that she is not interested in anyone else but you."
"Thanks, so how long has her brother been in the army?" Liam asked Willow.
"Well he's been gone for almost 2 years, they were really close before he left and Buffy's had kind of a hard time adjusting to life with out him" Willow answered. "Oh I should warn you, he's very protective of Buffy so don't be surprised if he gives you the third degree."
"Thanks, I'll remember that" he said as Buffy and Riley walked towards the group.
"Everyone I want you t meet my brother, Riley." Buffy said. "Ry, you know most of the people hear but this is Cordelia and this is Angel"
"Angel, humm, that's a interesting name." Riley said as he sized up the young man.
"Oh my gosh, did I say his name was Angel?" Buffy said looking very embarrassed "Sorry, his name is really Liam, I'm gonna get something to drink, I'll be right back." She said as she hurried off to the bar.
Willow got up and went after Buffy knowing there was no way Buffy was going to come back with out a little convincing that she didn't look that stupid.
Riley took Willow's place on the couch next to Liam. "So" he said " your interested in my sister?"
"Uh, how did you know?" Liam stuttered.
"Well she obviously likes you, and only an idiot wouldn't be interested." Riley said simply.
"I just met her, but she is just an amazing person." Liam said
"I'll play mean, over protective brother once, You hurt her, and I'll kill you" Riley said as he slapped his had on Liam's back. "But I like you, so I'll be nice from now on."
Just then Willow and Buffy walked over to the group. When Buffy say that Riley was talking to Liam she wanted to die. What ever Riley said, she was sure that Liam wouldn't want to ask her out now. "hey Riley can we go now, I have to study" Buffy asked her brother. "I'll see you all tomorrow at school" she said as she looked at everyone else.
She started to walk away but Liam grabbed her hand. "Can I walk you out?" he asked
"Sure" Buffy said surprised as he got up and started to walk her out. She was even more surprised that he hadn't let go of her hand yet and Riley was pounding him yet.
"I'll get the car" Riley said "you two take your time."
As the two reached outside the club Buffy stared at her brothers back as he walked towards his car.
"what did he say to you?" Buffy asked as she turned to face Liam
"He just said he would kill me if I ever hurt you" Liam said.
"Oh great, I'm sorry if he scared you or anything, he really wouldn't hurt you." Buffy said as she looked down
Liam gently lifted her face so that they were looking in each others eyes.
"you know I wouldn't hurt you right?" Liam asked
"I just met you, but yah for some reason I believe you." Buffy said as there lips got closer and closer together until they lightly touched.
"That was nice" she said quietly.
"Will you go out with me this weekend?' Liam asked as Riley pulled his car up to the curb.
"Sure pick me up at eight?" Buffy said smiling.
"I'll be there" Liam said "Bye Buffy"
"Bye Angel" she said as she shut the car door.
"Sorry, I just would have felt really stupid trying to flirt with her and she already has a boyfriend" Liam said softly.
