Chapter 13

"This place is so cool!" Sam exclaimed once she was inside the hotel.

"Yeah, I told you it was." Alex told her. "Come on, I want you to meet my friends before they leave." Sam nodded and followed Alex. "Hey, guys! This is my friend Sam that I told you about. These are my friends from Sunnydale, Buffy, her sister Dawn, Willow, Tara, Spike, and Xander." She said as she pointed to each of them.

"Hey, nice to meet all of you. I was starting to think that Alex made you all up in her imagination." Sam said and they laughed.

"Nope, they're real. I don't do that anymore." Alex said, teasing. Sam then shook their hands and Alex led her over to the Angel Investigations gang. "These are my other friends, the ones that live here. This is Wesley, Gunn, Cordelia, and that's Fred over there. She's a bit shy." Alex said as she pointed to them and Sam shook their hands also. "My other friend Lorne isn't here. He's been keeping busy with this club that he owns." Sam nodded.

"Way cool!" Sam stated when Angel then walked down the stairs. Sam grabbed her arm after noticing him. "Oh my god, who is that?" Sam asked, pointing to Angel.

"Oh, that's Angel. I guess you could say he's the man in charge." Alex told her.

"Wow, he is totally hot." Sam said and Alex rolled her eyes.

"Hey Angel, this is my friend Sam. She really wanted to meet you." Alex said as Angel came towards them. Sam glared at her friend as Angel walked up to them.

"Hey, it's nice to meet you." Angel said as he held out his hand and Sam took it, a little shakily. Alex noticed that she seemed to flinch a little at Angel's touch and also Spike's; luckily she didn't make a comment about how cold their hands were.

"You too, do you have a girlfriend?" She asked, a little embarrassed that she said that. Angel smiled at her as they dropped their hands.

"Okay, we're gonna go now." Alex said as she pulled Sam towards the front of the hotel. After she said her goodbyes, Sam took off. Alex then hugged Buffy and everyone and said her goodbyes. Angel then walked over to Buffy with Fred in tow.

"Hey, I have someone that I wanted you to meet. Since you never got a chance to before." Angel told Buffy. "This is Fred, Fred this is Buffy." Buffy held out her hand for Fred and she took it.

"Hi, it is a real pleasure to meet you. I've heard a lot about you, you're even prettier than I thought you would be. I'm gonna stop rambling now, I've been told I tend to do that a lot." Buffy laughed, she liked this girl.

"Yeah, it happens to the best of us. It's a pleasure to meet you too." Fred smiled. Buffy and the gang then said goodbye to Angel and the others and then they all headed out the doors when Spike stopped and walked back to Angel. Buffy watched him, wondering what was up. Spike then held out his hand to Angel and after a second Angel shook his hand and then pulled Spike into a hug, patting him on the back and Spike reciprocated. Then they let go.

"Thanks mate." Spike told him and Angel nodded.

"Don't mention it, take good care of her." Spike nodded and then looked back at Buffy.

"Always," he said as he joined Buffy by the door and grabbed her hand. Then they both walked out of the hotel and soon made their way back to Sunnydale.

Dear Diary,
It has been a crazy last few days, but I wouldn't change it for anything in the world. It was great seeing Buffy and the others again, even though it didn't go so well at first. They left back to Sunnydale and I already miss them, but I know I'll see them again. Sam can't stop talking about Angel and how hot he is, it's enough to make me wanna gag. I should just tell her that he's a vampire, but knowing Sam she would probably think that was cool. I knew introducing them would be bad. Well, at least she stopped talking about that loser Mike, so maybe some good did come out of it. Brenda has been coming to school with crutches since the little incident, that has to suck when you're a cheerleader. If you ask me, I did the squad a favor. She'll be fine in a few days. Melissa and I actually did that whole movie cry fest thing. I took the hint that she wanted to spend some time with me, so I decided that it wouldn't kill me to watch a few tearjerkers. I hope things get better for Buffy and Spike now that Buffy in her own way admitted that she loved him. I always thought they looked really good together. I have to say though that the best thing so far was the fact that Xander kissed me on the cheek before they headed back to Sunnydale. That was all I needed to have a really good day. I know that he has a girlfriend and I respect that, even though I don't know her that well. She still seems pretty cool. I shouldn't have expected anything more than just a simple kiss on the cheek, but a girl can dream can't she? Anyway, it's getting late. I'm gonna turn in now so I could actually be on time for school. See ya!
-Alex

Alex then closed up her diary and instead of putting it underneath her pillow; she floated it over to her desk. She then laid down in her bed and just looked up at the ceiling. "Life can't get any better than this." She said to herself as she drifted off to sleep.

The End

Well, this is where the fates are telling me to end it. I have to say that I really liked writing this one and I hope that other people will like it just as much. If ya'll actually manage to read it, feel free to let me know what you think. I decided on a sequel because I really liked my character, Alex and decided to do more with her. Thanks for reading, here endeth the lesson=)
