Three hours later the early to bed early to risers were waking. Willow slipped out of her Potential bombarded room and down the stairs as quietly as she could. Eyes still closed with sleep she made her way into the kitchen for sustenance without much sight seeing. Turning on the burner to boil some water, Willow made a trip to the bathroom to wash away the tiredness. Coming back to find the kettle screaming to be shut off, and two potentials helping themselves first to some instant coffee, she grabbed a cup for herself and walked with the newspaper to the dining room. Sitting at the head of the table she noticed two heads resting on both arms of the couch across the way. Spike laid out on the outside length and a girl she had never seen before curled in a loose fetal position against the back of the couch, slightly resting over his legs.

"Must be that new potential the council phoned about." She though aloud to nobody in particular.

"Yea I was about to ask you about that." Buffy startled Willow. Willow calmed and gave Buffy a questioning look.

"She doesn't know for sure if she is a slayer or not. But probably she is since some quote unquote old guy told her she needed to come here before being killed." Willow took in this information as she tried to over look the fact that Buffy looked deprived of sleep.

"So you think you can do a spell to figure it out?"

"Yea, yea Buffy, It will be easy. Only need some candles for it." Buffy nodded back and looked back at the little scene on the couch. This girl better not be a potential or she'd have her work cut out for her.

"Sleeping with a vampire! Amateur." Buffy thought, "Oh wait, no I meant sleeping with a vampire and being unaware that you are sleeping with a vampire! Yea, sure Buffy whatever." Buffy was pulled out of her internal conflict by a potential asking her to slid under the table more so she could get by with her breakfast.
