SURPRISE
NOTE: I am not lucky enough to own any of these characters because they belong to Joss and the WB. But I own Skylar (in a way) and any other character you don't recognize.
A/N: This story is the second story in my Skylar series. I can't say how many stories there will be. I also can't say how long this story will be, either. Mainly because I'm not sure yet of what will happen. Also some of you may not have read the very first Skylar story "Angel's Gift" so you may not quite understand this.
CHAPTER 8That next Thursday afternoon Dawn was talking with Beth and Tammy at their usual table in the school cafeteria. Dawn looked up and groaned. Connor was coming in their direction. Connor stopped at their table.
"Hi," he greeted.
"Hi, Connor," said Beth.
"Hey," Tammy smiled at him.
"Hi," said Dawn dryly.
"Um, listen, Tammy," Connor started.
"What is it?" Tammy asked.
"I know I'm a little late but would you want to… go with me to the Valentine's Day dance tomorrow?"
"Sure," Tammy replied quickly. "I'd love to. I'll be at your house at around seven."
"Great. It'll be fun." Connor shot Dawn a sly look and headed out.
"Um, be right back, guys," said Dawn, standing up. She went after Connor. Dawn grabbed onto his arm. "Connor!"
"What? I like Tammy. Is that so hard to believe?"
"It's not that. It's just… I don't want my friends coming to our house. You never know what's going to happen."
"Uh, hello. Isn't your date, Richard, picking you up at the hotel?"
"What? Oh, gosh, I forgot! Maybe this was a bad idea."
"Dawn, relax. We can't hide ourselves forever." Connor walked off.
"Can't hide ourselves?" Dawn thought. "Having a date changes him." Dawn went back to her friends and sat down. "Tammy, are you honestly going with Connor?"
"Yes," said the redheaded girl. "Dawn, I know he acts like a lame brother towards you but he is just so cute to me."
"Gross. So, Beth, who are you going with?" asked Dawn.
"I can't go at all," Beth replied. "I'm grounded. My mom claims I was being disrespectful towards her." Beth's cell phone went off then. She took it out of her pocket. "Hello? I don't care if it is an emergency; don't ever call me on this line! Bye, Mom. Love you." She hung up. Dawn and Tammy stared at her. "What?"
A/N: Let's see where this goes. I'd seriously like some reviews here.
