"So, are you totally curious about when your break is off?" asked the
Slayer's red haired friend. "Nope. I'm trying not to think about it.
Experience has shown that whenever I get to thinking about some good news,
then I get my hopes up, which leads to them being horribly destroyed by
Giles." Buffy casually said. "Not even a teeny weeny bit?" persisted
Willow. "Will, did you miss my speech?" the Slayer impatiently asked.
"Sorry, but now this means that I can be curious for the both of us," was the Slayerette's reply. The two friends started talking until the teacher came in. Another boring day of math, thought Buffy, taking out her math notes. She knew the only reason why she took them was to keep her mom off her back for awhile. Otherwise she would just copy off of Willow. Unfortunately, her mom knew the teacher's number to call and see if she was taking her own notes. It's so wonderful Mrs. Green and her mom were childhood friends, Buffy thought sarcastically as she tucked a strand a pale blond hair behind her ear.
Buffy tried to pay attention as the teacher explained the algebra homework for the day, but outside of the window looked so beautiful. Why did she have to be stuck in here on such a beautiful day? she asked herself. Suddenly Angel appeared in the window's view. She looked around to make sure no one was watching. What was he doing out here? She put her hand up to the glass, and watched him do the same.
He then mouthed the words, "I love you." She was dumbfounded. Then she heard, "Does the glass really need your handprint, Buffy?" the teacher asked. Buffy was woken back to reality. She looked back through the window. Angel was gone, and never was there. The embarrassed teenager then looked back to her class, and after seeing them stare at her, she said, "Um, a… bug was on the glass, and I tried to kill it."
Lame Buffy, she thought to herself. Apparently the rest of her classmates thought so too, since they started to laugh at her. "Well, now since you're done could you please pay attention?" the teacher scoldingly asked. "Sure," she replied, "always do." The teacher opened her mouth as if to say something, but then decided not to.
After class, Willow and Buffy were walking down the hallway. "So you really thought you saw Angel?" asked Willow. "Yeah, pretty silly huh?" the Slayer asked as she put her stuff down at a table in the lounge. "No, not like clown silly, just silly silly," her friend said, trying to comfort her. "So what's silly silly?" Xander asked as he joined them. "Uh, nothing. Just talking crazy talk." Buffy said before Willow could tell Xander.
Buffy knew that Xander liked her, and she liked him too, but only as a friend. So, she didn't want her friends to get hurt, especially if she could stop the pain. She knew if Xander heard about her dreaming about Angel, he would get the hurt puppy dog look on his face that Willow loved so much. "So where are you swinging ladies going to now?" Xander asked as he opened his soda can. "Well, I'm going to the library to see if Giles is done calculating," Buffy said as she picked up her stuff.
"Well, I'll come with. Willow?" Xander asked. "Oh, I gotta go help Amy with some science. She needed me to help with yesterday's experiment. Who knows, maybe I'll get a free spell or something." Willow said playfully as she started walking the other way. Xander and Buffy started to talk about the Bronze's dance. "Well, I know what I'm going to wear. A mermaid outfit, complete with a teeny weenie bikini top." Xander said proudly.
"I'm so glad I won't be there." Buffy replied, not wanting to imagine her best guy friend in a bikini top. "You never know. Could be the one of your night of your break." Xander said. "Only if I have any luck. Bad luck that is," Buffy replied as she pulled open the door to the library. Giles was in his office, but came out to greet them when he heard them come in. "Well, how has your day been going?" Giles politely asked them. "I just got a vision of Xander as a mermaid complete with a very girlie top. Pretty horrible. How about yours?" the Slayer asked as she threw her stuff on one of the dark cherry wood tables.
"Well tremendous until you shared that bit of information to me." Giles replied, as he shook his head. "Yeah, well. Welcome to my world. So have you found out when my week of fun is?" Buffy said to her Watcher. "Yes, I think so. It took awhile to calculate since the moon plays a part, and also I had to measure how much paranormal activity has been going on, and how many demons you have destroyed." Giles continued until finally Buffy and Xander could not listen to any more.
"Giles! Could you speak English here please? You lost me way back when you said yes." Buffy cut in exasperated. "What have I told you about unnecessary words?" Xander added. "Quite right. Sorry. So in Lumen's terms, your break is…"
"Sorry, but now this means that I can be curious for the both of us," was the Slayerette's reply. The two friends started talking until the teacher came in.
