I own nothing!!!!!
Many things had changed in Alexander Harris' life over the past two years. His parents were dead, his nights were full, and he was a fighter. But one of the few things that never changed. He hated school. Always had and always would.
"Hey Xander! I just love school don't you?" Willow on the other hand loved school with a passion. Why, Xander and no one else, knew. But she did. So Xander smiled slightly as the two walked in the door to see Jesse who seemed to be drooling.
"New girl." Xander only shrugged and turned moving down a corridor.
"Where ya goin Xand-man?" Jesse asked as he put his arm around Willow. Xander turned around but continued to walk backwards.
"Library. I need to check out a book on celtic rituals." Jesse and Willow looked at him in confusion but didn't ask the question that was filling there minds. Xander half smiled and turned walking toward the high school library.

Elizabeth Anne Summers, Buffy to her friends, stepped out of her mothers Jeep Cherokee onto the front quad of Sunnydale High School. She was nervous. Very nervous. She had just been expelled from her old school ,Hemery, in L.A. She really wanted, or moreover needed to make a good impression. Moreso to the teachers than to the students.
"Have fun honey! Make lots of friends." Joyce Summers said from inside the jeep. Buffy just smiled slightly, nodded, and waved goodbye. Buffy turned to look at her new school. Sunnydale High. Hopefully she wouldn't have to burn down the gym.
"Well, here goes nothin." Buffy began to walk toward the entrance.
~~~~~~~~~
Xander stepped through the double doors and into the library. He looked around the spacious room for the librarian but couldn't see anyone.
"I guess I'll find the book myself." Xander murmered and walked toward the stacks in the back of the room. He heard the double doors open behind him but he didn't care who it was.
"I'm just getting a book!" He yelled from behind the stacks. The voice he heard back wasn't what he expected a librarian to sound like.
"Me to." A femenine voice answered in reply. Xander moved out of the stacks and looked at the small blond haired girl holding a binder against her chest.
"New?" Xander asked as he stood at the stairs leading to the book stacks. The girl nodded quickly.
"Buffy Summers." Xander smiled slightly and walked down the stairs.
"Xander Harris." 'She's hot' Xander thought to himself as he shook her hand. Little did he know she was thinking the same thing. Both looked up as the double doors opened and an older man in a tweed jacket walked in. When he saw Xander he stopped in his tracks.
"What the bloody hell are you doing here?" Giles asked as he stepped toward the smiling young man.
"Me? Oh I need a book on ancient Celtic rituals." Giles stopped suddenly.
"Uh.. Is there a pressing reason for your need of that book?" Giles asked fidgeting. Xander shook his head no and smiled slightly.
"No. A friend of mine told me to study and the celtic stuff always intrested me. So you got the book or what?" Giles sighed and nodded to himself.
"Yes. I'll get it for you." Xander noticed how the old man looked at Buffy. It was like he knew who she was. Xander turned and looked at Buffy.
"He seem like a tightass to you?" Xander asked making Buffy laugh. Giles walked out of the stacks with a book in his hand and a tightly drawn face. Xander moved over to the checkout counter and took the book. He looked at the name on a plaque by the counter.
"Thanks G-man. Bye Buff." Xander turned and walked out of the library leaving Buffy with the Librarian.
"Miss Summers?" Giles asked as he reached for the large book under the counter....
~~~~~~~~~`
Xander walked across the quad toward the table he, Jesse, and Willow occupied at lunch. His thoughts were stuck on his meeting with Buffy earlier that day. There was something different about her. Something.... Just something he couldn't grasp. Just a feeling. He walked under the shade trees and noticed that there was more than two people at the table. Three to be exact. Jesse, Willow, and Buffy. Xander was conflicted. He wanted to go over to his normal table but something about Buffy seemed to tell him to be cautious. Xander shrugged it off and walked over to the table. Willow noticed him first and waved at him to take a seat.
"Xander. This..." Willow started her introduction only to be cut off by Xander.
"Buffy Summers. We've met. About three periods ago if i'm not mistaken." Buffy smiled but Xander didn't. Xander seemed to be uncomfortable.
"So Xand. We Bronzing it tonight or are you and Angel doing something?" Xander shrugged.
"I don't know. If Angel and I don't go to L.A. I'll be there." Willow and Jesse nodded. They hadn't seen much of there friend latly. Well Willow had but that was because he lived with her.
"Angel?" Buffy asked as she looked toward Xander. Xander thought of not answering but he knew Willow would tell Buffy the Xander life story the minute he left. Well, what she knew of it anyway.
"My brother." Xander answered without thinking. But, he didn't think about what he said afterward either. He also didn't notice the slight sigh from Buffy. As a matter of fact not even she noticed it.
"I gotta go. Take this book back to the library." Xander noticed the look of panic that formed on Buffy's face at the mention of the library. He had an idea of why but didn't want to mention anything. Ever. Xander stood and moved from the table just as Cordy walked over. 'Thats the last we'll see of Buffy.' Xander thought to himself as Cordy began talking to her. He once again had convlicting emotions. He wanted to be her friend. But, he also wanted nothing to do with her.
"Things just got alot more confusing." Xander said to himself as he walked into the school.
Okay thats it.
