A Whole New World
Summary: Buffy & Willow do with the girl talk.
Hope you like this. It's good old-fashioned girl talk, so I hope its not too corny...
Keep on reviewing! :)
Chapter Three
Buffy bounced into the house with glee. Dawn looked up at her from the living room couch in disbelief as her sister whistled a merry tune and went up the stairs. Was that the theme song from Aladdin? Oh God. Dawn didn't even whistle that. Something was most definitely up with Buffy. But what could it be?

Buffy closed her eyes as she lay back on her bed, smiling happily. That gorgeous guy from registration had been watching her again. She could practically feel the twin holes his eyes had made. Well, that and the fact that Willow kept pointing him out to her right under Xanders' nose. Boys had no clue. All he had done was remark that " Your eye has a twitch going on there, Will."
Now there was a cute couple. Buffy knew Willow had the hots for him, she could see it in her eyes; after all, was she not of
the female persuasion as well? Girls had a knack for that sort of thing. But as for Xander... he was either oblivious or hiding his more romantic affections for his best friend well. As in really well. And Buffy was really sure that it wasn't the latter. Willow should really find someone who deserves her, and actually realizes she exists - " Hi, my name is Willow, and if everyone would wake up, I'm a girl here too!" Actual words of Willow's from their talk while Xander went to the bathroom. Buffy really liked the girl; smart and nice, yet sweetly sarcastic. It seemed like they had known each other for years, although it had only been less than 24 hours.
Willow had never had a real girl friend, and her friendship with Buffy opened up a new world for her. As it did with Buffy.
Her only friends in L.A. had been superbly superficial, and Willow just wasn't like that. The best of both worlds, Buffy mused.
As she picked up the phone to finish her earlier chat with Willow, it rang. She held it up to her ear. " Hello?'
" Buffy?" It was Willow.
" Hi! I was just about to call you."
"Really? That's cool. Ya know that we both were gonna call each other. Yea. " She took a breath.
" Anyway I just wanted to talk to you about that guy. "
Buffy played innocent. " Whatever do you mean? Which guy are you talking about?"
Willow chuckled and played along. " Why, the one you were having a staring contest during lunch with! And the same one you made us leave before he reached our table! Poor dear, you must have amnesia!"
Buffy reddened and groaned. " Alright! I'm caught. So, " she continued excitedly, " Who is my cryptic guy?"
" Oh , my God. I forgot you didn't know who he was. Your newness, and all. His names' Angel O' Connor... "
Buffy gasped. " Wait. The Angel O ' Connor? The junior, the football captain, 3 time Homecoming King, is -- "
" Totally entranced by you? Yep."
"Oh God. Alright. I need to sit down. Okay. Wow..."
Buffy eased herself into a chair.
"By the way, how did you know all about him?"
" I have ears. And eyes. And everyone was talking about his MVP award. So that's him, huh?"
"Yeah. And oh, Buffy? I'd watch out for Cordelia tomorrow. She's had her eye on him since seventh grade. "
"Why? She won't know who I am. Or the fact that he, apparantly, is attracted to me. "
"Well, actually, she probably will. Angel hasn't dated since his freshman year, and the rumor mill has been starving for a piece of news like this for two years. She runs the rumor mill. So yeah. He's like a celebrity, even in town. The newspapers would probably put in a story if you two got together."
Buffy smiled at this, a little amused, and more than a little disappointed.
" So he's like on a permanent ego trip, then? "
" Oh no!," Willow exclaimed. There's probably never been a kinder person, especially one who's popular. He gives blood every year, volunteers at the senior center, and oh, once when I dropped my books, he picked them all up for me. Me. Brainy, nerdy Willow!"
"Wow. And don't say that," Buffy said absently.
"What?"
" That you're a nerd. You have got to be the nicest friend I've ever had, and I most definitely am not getting any nerd vibes from you. If anyone's a nerd, its that friend of Cordelia's... Harmony."
Willow smiled at that. Buffy was really great and kind herself.
"See? You two would be perfect for each other! You're both nice, and athletic, and attracitve... you'd be like Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman!"
Buffy laughed. " Hey, where did you get athletic from?"
"That was you at the Los Angeles County Ice Skating Finals last spring, wasn't it?"
"Oh...you came to that?"
" Yep. Oh! "
"What," asked Buffy, wondering what had happened to Willow to make her so quiet.
" I think... I think Angel was there. But don't worry! You were good. Very, even!"
Buffy took that in.
"This is all so odd. I mean, this guy seems to show up everywhere, and he doesn't even know me..."
Buffy heard a muffled sound, and then heard Willow's voice again. " Buffy? I have to go now. I'll see you in Biology?"
"Yeah."
" Okay. Oh, wait! We should go to the Bronze tonight. I could meet you there, with Xander? Like 7:30?"
" I'll ask Mom, but I'm sure it'll be alright with her. Where is it?"
Willow quickly gave Buffy directions and Buffy was about to hang up when she heard Willow again.
"Oh, and Buffy? Angel will probably be there..."
Then she hung up.
