Okay peeps; I promised a chapter 2 so here it is. P.S. I'm working on them getting longer as I go. Sorry about so many flashbacks, but they'll all work out and I'll try to cut down.

Buffy was worried. Why hasn't he called? What if something was wrong? Was she really bad? She remembered what Angelus said 'You're not worth a second go'. The thoughts trembled in her mind. ' Why hasn't he called?' She was wondering as her mind went through a million ideas a minute about Parker.

She decided to work on other things. After all, Spike was back. 'The annoying bleach blond blood sucker' she thought. She still couldn't believe he was with Harmony. Harmony! She thought. What could he possibly want with a blond bimbo? Granted Dru wasn't all there 'actually she was more gone then she was there' Buffy thought bitterly. Buffy had hated Dru. She knew she was a little jealous because Dru was her Angel's lover on his um. vacation. She probably thought Spike wasn't good enough for her. Although Buffy hated Spike, she did think he deserved better than a blonde bimbo or a girl who didn't have all her fruit in the basket. She never did understand why Spike stayed with her so long. Well anyway, the Gem of Amara she thought. She still wasn't sure what it could do. Giles said something about standing in the sun. Maybe Angel could use it she thought. As she walked home tears started emerging from her eyes, which now seemed to be pink from the tears. How much she missed Angel. But she realized it was part of her life ' in the end the slayer stands alone' she thought. He was her world and as much as she liked Parker she couldn't stand not having her Angel. Someone who was strong like her and could stand beside her in battle. Someone to comfort her, to heal her wounds, to trust forever. Forever. There was that annoying word that held her back. She was the slayer. She couldn't have a normal life with kids and the picket fence. She was left with the cold and the darkness and the death. Death. How her world had ended the first time with the master was nothing like her how her world came crashing down after Angel left. Coward. She knew her life was short, after all no slayer ever lived after 25. But he could've been strong. Life for her was only worth it because of Angel. Now she was furious. But she still loved him. She knew she would make of what she could of this new lonely life. That's why she met Parker.' I need to kill something' she thought as she headed toward the graveyards.



After beating and finally having mercy on seven vamps she headed home. She figured she'd stop at Gile's house tomorrow. First she had to check out to see if any messages came from Parker. She thought she would just look of course. Wouldn't hurt to look if she happened to get home. But she couldn't get home she was so nervous. She checked the messages from a local payphone. "BEEP! You have one message." The answer machine spoke. FINALLY! Buffy thought. "Buffy, it's Giles any information on this Gem or on Spike? It's imperative we find it as soon as possible." Darn! Buffy thought. Why won't he call? And why did Spike have to be so annoying?

Finally she got home. Right on the door was a sign saying "Buffy. Went to Oz's. I love him so much.( No news from Parker yet huh?( Don't worry. Oh! Gile's called about the Spike problem. I still think it's so funny: Harmony! Spike's taste must have really gone down. Hey! Xander says he and Anya are together now. Weird huh? He said she came by one day and they hit it off. Bet they had sex;) Well, I don't like her. She talks too much about sex. Actually she said she wanted to "stretch" before there next exercise. Well anyways, got to go. Love Wills(" 'Wow! Xander and Anya! Huh? Well, that's just dandy. Here I am on a Saturday night alone while everyone else makes with the mushy! I like mushy!' Buffy thought. Oh well. She sighed. 'At least I can work on the Psyche Assignment professor Walsh gave us.' She sadly went into her room.



Well, That's chapter 2. Sorry it was so short, but the next one will com out tomorrow-ish(. I'm already working on it and it might even be up by tonight. So far I've gotten 4 reviews all saying keep going, but not too many more flashbacks so thank you.
