Willow walked down the street with Xander and Oz, "Do you think she even bothered to listen to the messages I left?"

"I'm sure she listened to the one I left. I almost cried when I said it," Xander put his hands in his pockets, "Don't make fun of me but after I said it I did."

"I'm not, I cried when I left mine. I cried on all of the messages I left. She shouldn't do it.I know a few of my family members who did," Willow said in a small voice.

Oz put his arm around her, "I know how it feels Will, my cousin threatened to do it but I talked him out of it. I hope I did the same to Buffy when I left her the message."

Willow nodded slightly. Faith met up with them, "Hey guys."

"Hey Faith, you ok?" Xander asked her.

Faith shook her head, "I'm worried about Buffy. This just isn't like her. I- I just don't understand what's wrong with her."

"No one does," Angel said walking over to them, "Not even me."

"I don't like this at all," Oz said then turning to Willow, "Did you tell Giles?"

Willow gave another nod, "He was pretty shocked, angry and sad all at the same time. I could tell by the way he talked into the phone. I got scared, I didn't want to get him all upset but my conscious told me it was the right thing to do."

"It was Willow, that was pretty brave," Angel said. Willow gave him a small smile of thanks then sighed, "I'm scared.I don't want Buffy to do anything bad." Oz kissed the side of her head as she put her head down on his shoulder. Angel glanced over to the graveyard to see if Buffy was there but she wasn't.

"Social hour?" Cordelia asked walking over, "Where's Buffy? Didn't she get the messages you guys left?"

"Apparently not but I sure hope she listened to my message," Xander said crossing his arms, "Did you leave any?"

Cordelia shrugged, "I left one but I doubt it that she heard it. I'm sure mine wasn't as good as yours. But it was worth a shot, I mean.I'm not that good with the touchy-feely stuff but I tried."

"Good thing you did Cor, we're trying to talk her out of it but I don't think it's working," Xander said walking away. Willow sighed, "I hope she's ok."

Angel was silent for a moment, "I do too." He turned and headed back to his mansion.
