I own nothing.

Complete AU.

Thx for the reviews since I haven't said it b4.

Any1 noe where I can find a story with Riley getting beat up by Angel and Buffy is helping or cheering him on. Slightly j/k. But if u do noe tell me in a review or e-mail.

The next morning

"So, Buff, are you ready for tonight?"

"I hope so."

"What do you mean I hope so? This is Riley Finn. You know the guy who was actually named Pervert of the Year. And asked you out almost only because of your supposed job. You should be dreading this not hoping about it."

"Thanks for the support."

"I'm only stating the obvious."

"You know Spike and Dru would be so proud."

"Yeah, too bad they're not coming."

"Oh, the boys told me what they did."

"What did they do this time?"

"No, for the surprise they somehow got us all seated at the same table."

"Um…why?"

"So we can all share in the glory of embarrassing Darla and Riley."

"You know we're the ones practically committing adultery."

That night

"Buffy, do you have to wear that dress."

"Um…yeah, why?"

"Because you're killing me. How am I supposed to sit next to you when you're dressed like that?"

"That's not funny, Angel."

"I'm not trying to be. Besides it's Liam tonight don't you remember."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. I have to go to Willow's now."

"Why?"

"Cause Riley's supposed to pick me up there."

"Damn."

At dinner

"So, Riley, what do you do?"

"Well, I'm an accountant for a major law firm."

"Sounds um…interesting."

"Soooo, are you done catching up with your friends because I still want to have that talk?"

"Um…Buff, can I talk to you for a sec?"

"Yeah."

Once they were away from the table the two other girls joined them.

"What's up Wills? Not that I mind the distraction from my ever so boring and not to mention perverted date."

"Um…are you guys sure Spike and Dru aren't coming?"

"Positive. Spike called Angel and told him he wasn't coming. Why?"

"Cause no one else I know has that color of platinum blonde hair," she said pointing in the direction of the double doors.

"Oh my god, that is them."

"So, no biggie. Give us something else to do besides listening to the Whore and Pervert of the Millenium."

"Yeah, but they don't know about the lies and they're probably looking for us."

"Let's just go back to our seats and hope they pick up on our subtle hints."

"They don't know the meaning of the word subtle."

"I know but we can't exactly do anything about it now."

When they got back to their seats Angel was giving Buffy some questioning looks but it wasn't like she could answer him.

"Willow, what's wrong?" Angel after they excused themselves to pretend to talk to some more old friends.

"Spike and Dru are here."

"So what's the big deal? It's not like we couldn't use the company."

"Yeah, but the lies and your acting."

"Shit. And here they come. Let's get back to the table."

"Spike, Drusilla what are you two doing here? Told me yourself you weren't coming. And don't you need to RSVP?"

"Well, I just had to surprise you, Angel. Besides didn't know if we were coming or not."

"Buffy, darling, how is Jessica and where did you send her? Everybody else is here."

"She's at my mom's, Dru."

"So how is the happy couple? Grateful for a night off?"

"Oh, we're fine, Spike."

"Darling Willow, I don't think he meant you."

"I'm sure he did, Dru."

"No, I didn't, Will."

"The wedding plans are great, Spike."

"I didn't mean that either, Xander."

"Sorry, no plans for marriage, yet."

"I'm NOT talking about that, Cordelia."

"Wait a minute, Cord. What do you mean 'yet'?"

"Will everyone shut up!?!" Spike graciously yelled causing the whole room to turn and stare.

"I never thought it would take this much to see how Angel and Buffy's marriage is. 'Sides they usually tell us whether we want to know or not."

"What marriage?" was asked simultaneously by Darla and Riley which was followed by both of them putting a hand on the respective date.
