Summary: Hello people. Angelfirenze, I made a character names Jocelyn who will be in the next chapter. That is your character ok? I didn't know what to name her or whatever so I just kind came up with something. You're gonna be a friend of Drusilla.... I hope that's okay. I'll try to up-load it tomorrow on your birthday. K? Good. Now in this chapter we meet Mrs. Summers new boyfriend...Rupert Giles. Come on I couldn't just leave him out of the story. The song is 'I Feel So' by Box Car Racer. Great song and great band.
Sometimes
I wish I was brave
I wish I was stronger
I wish I could feel no pain
I wish I was young
I wish I was shy
I wish I was honest
I wish I was you not I
'Cause
I feel so mad
I feel so angry
I feel so callused
So lost, confused, again
I feel so cheap
So used, unfaithful
Let's start over
Let's start over
Sometimes
I wish I was smart
I wish I made cures for
How people are
I wish I had power
I wish I could lead
I wish I could change the world
For you and me
'Cause
I feel so mad
I feel so angry
I feel so callused
So lost, confused, again
I feel so cheap
So used, unfaithful
Let's start over

I Feel So- Box Car Racer
Angel entered the house and was surprised to see Buffy and Shelly sitting together on his living room floor.... talking...civilized.... no nail scratches or pulled hair.
"Hi Angel" Shelly said looking up at her older brother and smiled. Angel seemingly shocked looked over his shoulder before looking back to his sister. He was way more surprised when she got up and wrapped him in a tight hug. Slowly he hugged her back. She pulled away and smiled at the look on his face.
"Hi"
"Hi Angel" Buffy spoke up with a smile on her face. He grinned at her.
"I'll go upstairs" Shelly volunteered disappearing. Angel reached down and helped Buffy up
"I don't know what you did but God bless you," he said dramatically. Buffy laughed
"All she needed was a little girl-to-girl talk...it was fun". Angel grinned
"You're the best"
"I know"
Later That Night
"Bye"
"Bye"
"No really I mean it good-bye.... stop making that face"
"What face?"
"That face that makes me wanna kiss you again", Angel laughed at his girlfriend and leaned down to give her one last kiss. He smiled as he remembered the night of their first kiss. He had been so nervous that night he had almost fainted. Well that might have had something to do with being knocked unconscious before hand but still it had been magic. Pulling away he smiled at her. He was about to say something when the sound of a car pulling into the driveway startled them. Buffy looked at it with curiosity and she got even more curious when her mom got out of the passenger side of the strange car.
"Mom? I thought you were inside" the blonde girl said starting down the steps to meet her mother. Joyce actually looked nervous and Buffy understood when a man got of the passenger side of the car. Buffy put her hands on her hips and her eyes went wide. "You snuck out with a boy?! That's supposed to be my job!" Angel came down the steps and stood behind Buffy with a small grin on his face.
"Buffy honey.... I thought you and Angel were going to be out later..."
"Oh so how long have you been sneaking around behind my back with...who is he anyway?" Buffy gestured to the man who was still standing by the car and had been quiet the whole time. He looked about her mother's age and wore glasses and a tweed suit.
"He looks familiar" Angel spoke up walking closer to get a good look at the man.
"Hey yea...." Buffy said coming to stand next to Angel. They both looked at the man for a few seconds before he finally spoke
"My name is Rupert Giles...I'm the librarian at your school but I suppose you wouldn't know that.... maybe if any teenagers these days actually read instead of listening to that.... noise you call music..." Angel and Buffy both stared at Mr. Giles with black stares.
"No I don't think that's it" Angel started "Are you sure I never saw you at the Rat's Nest?" Joyce put her hand on Angel's shoulder while Rupert looked confused.
"Angel"
"Yea Mrs. Summers?"
"Go home"
"All right.... bye" he said to Buffy before walking off.
"Why don't we all go inside and have something to drink?" Joyce suggested tensely. Buffy eyed Rupert suspiciously the whole way inside.
"Honey.... Mr. Giles and I met at the gallery...." Joyce looked over at Rupert and smiled. He smiled back at her. Buffy let out a disgusted sound
"Ew. Adult googily eyes...my mother making googily eyes... this is too much.... does Crystal know about this?"
"Yes honey... Crystal doesn't react to situations the way you do"
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"I mean Crystal isn't as... never mind. Buffy Rupert is very nice I'm sure you'll grow to like him once eve been together for a while...."
"Ewww...I need to go.... tear my eyes out" Buffy stood up and started up the stairs. Joyce sighed and looked at Rupert
"That went well".
"It was horrible"
"Sounds it"
"Angel I'm serious. My mom has a boyfriend it's.... wrong"
"Your right"
"What?"
"I mean how dare she like...try to move on or something"
"Angel! You're supposed to be on my side", he turned to her in the hallway and put his hands on her shoulders
"Buffy I'm always on your side. I'm just saying.... give the guy a chance. Give your mom the chance at being happy"
"You suck.... stop being sensible," she pouted. Angel shook his head and kissed her forehead.
"I have to go find Will and get details on his big reunion with the nut bag.... I mean Drusilla. You want to come?" he asked.
"No you go ahead.... I'm going to go to class like were supposed to"
"See now your being the sensible one," he said with a laugh before walking away down the empty hall. Buffy watched him go before heading off to class.
Buffy took a seat in the back row of her History class. Angel had definitely rubbed off on her. Sighing she half-heartedly tried to take notes but her mind was too pre-occupied. She couldn't get the image of her mom and that guy...Mr. Giles out of her head. She did want her mom to be happy but.... it was weird. Her mom.... was probably kissing that guy.... maybe even having sex! No he was a librarian.... librarians didn't have sex. Of course they had sex her mom was probably sleeping with him. They were probably gonna get married and have a bunch of babies and dress them in tweed! Buffy took a deep breath and shook her head. She was definitely over reacting. It wasn't that her mom was dating that was bothering her. This whole thing was re-opening the wounds of her parents divorce. It was reopening the wounds her father had caused.
Next Part Up tomorrow hopefully! Stay tuned.
