Angel was thinking about the events of the night before. He didn't know why he did that to Buffy she looked so confused, but he knew she felt the same way about him that he felt about her. Angel had wanted to do what he did that night many times before. He had liked Buffy Summers since forever, well maybe the fifth grade. Even though they had never really had a descant conversation. Angel also knew that even if Buffy felt the same way about him, her friends would never except them as a couple. Though he still had to try to win Buffy over.

"Come you believe that jerk dumped me." Cordelia sobbed. Buffy and Harmony had to listen to Cordelia cry over Riley dumping her.(AN: If anyone's confused, Riley and Cordelia WERE dating at the beginning of this story)

"You are so much better then him." Harmony declared.

"Yeah, who needs fish face anyway." Buffy agreed and Cordelia started to smile.

"Theirs a million guys that will go out with you in a heart beat." Buffy added shacking her head. Buffy had seen Cordelia and Xander together a few times. She was also starting to get the hint that Cordelia had a thing for Xander. Buffy hadn't told anyone about Cordelia and Xander because she wasn't sure Cordelia wanted anyone to know.

"So how's your egg project going." Buffy asked changing the subject.

"Great," Harmony stated with a huge smile.

"That's because you have a partner with a social life." Buffy and Cordelia said at the same time. Then they looked at each other and started laughed.

Soon Buffy noticed Angel towards them. He was alone and he was looking directly at Buffy.

"I have to go to the bathroom, see you two later." Buffy lied. After last night Buffy didn't want to talk to Angel. She was confused about last night and wouldn't know what to say to him. Buffy walked away as fast as she could.

{{Later}}

Buffy had done a good job at avoiding Angel, till fifth period came along.

Angel came up from behind Buffy. He twisted her around so she faced him and he grabbed her shoulders. Buffy struggled to get away, but failed.

"You have been avoiding me." Angel stated with anger.

"So," Buffy shot back with more anger.

"Why?" Angel asked, now he no longer sounded angry, but concerned.

"Why not," Buffy answered. The truth was that she wasn't sure why she was avoiding Angel. Besides the fact she didn't want a repeat of the night before, at least not in the middle of the hallway.

Angel sighed and knew he wasn't getting anywhere. So he took action. Angel pushed Buffy closer to him, so their lips were only inches away. Then Angel crushed his lips against Buffy's. Right away Buffy pushed away, before the kiss went any farther.

"Leave me alone." Buffy told him. Buffy was able to get away from him because he was shocked when she pushed away so fast. Buffy turned away from Angel and ran down the hallway.

Buffy started walking once she was farther away from Angel.

"Hey, Buffy." Buffy heard Cordelia call her.

"So what's up with you and Angel?" Cordelia asked walking closer to Buffy.

"You saw." Buffy frowned.

"Yeah, but I'm sure I was the only one." Cordelia assured her. Buffy relaxed a little.

"We need to talk," Cordelia started." I know about you and Angel. The same things happening with Xander and me."

Buffy was shocked, she knew about Cordelia and Xander. But she never thought Cordelia would confront her with it.

"Maybe we should talk about this in the library." Buffy offered, at seeing how uncomfortable Cordelia looked.

"Sounds good," Cordelia consented, looking around making sure no one was eavesdropping.

"I say we make an oath." Cordelia stated, when they sat down at the table in the library.

"An oath?" Buffy questioned confused. How was that going to help their Angel and Xander problem?

"Yeah, we take an oath. To promise each other nothing is going to happen between Xander and me or you and Angel." Cordelia explained and Buffy listened closely.

"Okay why not, it may actually work." Buffy shrugged leaning back in the chair.
