Disclaimer: I own no characters and not the story. It belongs to the person it happened to. I love what you experience made you what you are today: a wonderful woman.

Warning: This fic contains implied pre-martial sex. If this offends you, I apologize and encourage you to please stop reading.

A/N: This story is a true story, not of me, but of someone very close to me. I will not give out her name for security purposes, but keep Buffy in your prayers. Christian, Jewish, Islamic, Wiccan, Pagan, it doesn't matter. We are all watched over, even if it's not by a God.

BASED ON A TRUE STORY

Prologue

"Buffy! It's time to go to bed!" Mom calls from the hall outside my door.

"In a minute! I'm studying for my Journalism test tomorrow! I have to get good grades so I can get a scholarship to UCLA to become a reporter for the New York Times"

"Alright, dear." My mom doesn't believe that I can make it. Oh, but I can. I'm going to not only going to get a scholarship to UCLA and get a job in the New York Times. I'm going to be the best damn reporter that ever lived and I'm not going to let anything get in my way.

TBC.

What does everyone think of the prologue? It's short, but all of them are. I will not continue if I get no reviews.

The above statement is transliterated from Hebrew into English. At the end of the story, I'll reveal what it means.
