"I'm not sure, she seems sweet and all, but I don't know…" Wesley
replied.
"What is there not to know?" Lorne asked, because he could tell Wesley was avoiding the question.
Wesley shrugged; he removed his glasses and cleaned them on his shirt.
"Here you go Lorne." Britney sat a plate of eggs on the table in front of him.
"Thanks Britney." He smiled up at her. He began to eat when he thought for some reason Britney felt weird, then he noticed she was humming. "What are you humming?" He asked without thinking.
"Just a little tune I made up, maybe later lyrics will pop into my head. Why do you ask?" She wondered.
"You don't feel right, here kind of uncomfortable." Lorne continued.
"How did you know? Oh, yeah I forgot, but I guess I will get used to it." Britney said going pink. Lorne decided to keep his mouth closed, for now. The boys ate and Britney began to clean up the pans, when a sleepy Angel stumbled downstairs.
"Hey Angel! Woah, what's wrong?" the Slayer asked.
"I smelled something, but I guess that was breakfast. I will probably go back to sleep in a minute but I just wanted to find out what was going on down here." Angel responded.
"It is just us, sorry if we were to loud." She apologized.
"It is okay, I just have really good hearing." Angel smiled a sleepy grin. Britney began to giggle, and then she burst out laughing.
"What is it?" Wesley asked.
"One time when," she began, she laughed and then continued, "I was thirteen Angel took me to this place, to prove vampires were real." She kept laughing but went on, "And I thought he was lying, so I was sitting there pretending to go along with it. Then this girl came up to us and she talked like Mary Poppins. I made fun of her and then she said I wasn't so smart to be insulting her. I asked why and she vamped out, she turned to leave a moment later and she tripped over her dress. Angel had gotten a glass of blood at the bar, and he spit it all over the bar, which upset the demon bartender. And this whole bar fight started and Angel and I were just sitting there laughing. I don't know why that is so funny or why I thought of that now." She laughed.
"I can't picture that." Wesley said beginning to smile.
"It was Drusilla." Angel laughed.
"Now I can." Wesley began laughing. The four of them sat in the kitchen laughing for a few minutes, eventually things died down and they became serious again. "So how did you meet Angel?" Wesley wondered.
"When I was about nine years old my mom was driving me to the skating rink for my best friend's birthday party and we got there and she left and everything. On my way in I could tell someone was watching me. I saw him, I thought I had seen him before but I wasn't so sure. Stupid little me just had to wave, joking Angel, and he came over and talked to me. I mean how was I supposed to know he was a vampire, I thought he was about 19 or something, and eventually we became friends." She explained.
"I see." Wesley smiled.
"Enough talking, I am going back to bed, see you guys tonight." Angel turned around and went back up to bed.
"When are the rest of Spike's friends supposed to show up?" Lorne asked.
"He said today, he just didn't say exactly when. I am just getting used to you all, and in a while more people are showing up. How fun." Britney answered.
There was a knock at the door. "What timing." Wesley smiled, and Britney followed him to the door. He pulled open the door.
"Is this Angel Investigations?" the blonde girl asked.
"That's what it says." Wesley smiled.
"Wesley, is that you?" She asked.
"Buffy it is so good to see you again, how've you been?"
"Okay, I guess." She replied.
"Buffy can we go in now? It is hot out here." A smaller girl complained.
"Sorry, come right in everyone." Wesley invited. Buffy, and the younger girl came in followed by which Wesley recognized as Xander Harris and Willow Rosenberg.
"Wow, nice digs for a dead guy." Xander said as he looked around.
"Where is he Wesley?" Buffy asked.
"He just went back to bed for the day." Britney answered.
"Who are you?" Dawn asked.
"Dawn! Be polite." Buffy exclaimed.
"It is okay. I am one of Angel's friends, and I am helping him find Conner. I have a lead, but I need a witch." Britney began.
"I used to be one, I am not anymore though. I know one if you need her." Willow said.
"Sure that'd be great." Britney smiled. "You are Willow right?"
"Yeah, um, how did you know?"
"Spike, he, we were talking last night. And from that am getting you are Xander, and you are Dawn. And Buffy the vampire Slayer right?" Britney wondered.
"That's me, the one and only. I am not the only Slayer, Faith, but you probably already knew that. I didn't catch your name." Buffy smiled.
"I'm Britney. But Faith was, as sad as this is, she was killed in jail."
"Then who is the new Slayer?" asked Xander.
"You're looking at her." Britney smiled. She turned around; Lorne was still sitting at the table. "Lorne, come here. Angel's guests are here."
Lorne got up, walked over and stood beside Britney.
"Woah." Dawn said under her breath to Xander. Xander giggled briefly and then once again became serious.
"I hate to leave you so soon, but I am in desperate need of a shower." Britney laughed, she went up to her room and began getting a new outfit together.
"So, how are all of you?" Wesley asked trying to strike up conversation.
"It has been interesting." Xander responded. Buffy, Dawn, and Willow handed Xander their bags and handed him car keys.
"Go check us into the hotel." Buffy and Willow sweetly smiled.
"They expect me to carry all of this." Xander looked scared, he tried to walk but he almost fell over.
"Man, you need some help?" Gunn asked when he and Fred walked in.
"I could use it." Xander laughed. Gunn took a few bags and went with Xander to the hotel.
"Did I miss something?" Fred asked when she saw the three women standing in Angel Investigations.
"This is Buffy, Willow and Dawn. That guy with Gunn was Xander." Wesley explained.
"What happened to Britney, Angel and Spike?" Fred questioned.
"Britney is in the shower, Angel is sleeping and I could care less where Spike is." Wesley answered.
"That makes two of us." Buffy said under her breath.
"What is there not to know?" Lorne asked, because he could tell Wesley was avoiding the question.
Wesley shrugged; he removed his glasses and cleaned them on his shirt.
"Here you go Lorne." Britney sat a plate of eggs on the table in front of him.
