Part 2

Buffy took a satisfied look around her room three hours later. It had taken awhile, but she had unpacked all her suit cases. Her summer bed room now rang of her. Walking over to her window Buffy opened the to allow the cool summer breeze to blow through them. Leaning against the window shill Buffy looked out upon the large back yard. It stretch for a good two miles, if not more.
It seemed like only yesterday she was eleven, and running around that yard followed by her favorite among her Uncle's horses. Now the backyard contained a fenced in area with a swimming pool, and beach chairs. Not far from that laid the stables just as she remembered, and finally Buffy's eyes landed upon her aunt's garden. It didn't look as beautiful and full of life as she remembered it to be. The grounds looked like they hadn't been tended too in months. This made Buffy think, Aunt Jenny had always loved that garden. When she was younger Aunt Jenny would always let her help in the planting of new flowers and the picking of the vegetables.
"Miss Buffy, do you need anything?" the question startled Buffy out of her memories of that past.
Buffy turned around to face a middle age Asian woman standing in the doorway with what looked to be a pop in her hand," No, thank you," declined Buffy kindly. "I am going to go take a swim. Could you let my aunt know where I am, if she should wonder?" asked Buffy walking over to her dresser to get out her CK pre-winkle purple bikini.
"Of course, Miss," implied the dark eye servant. "My name is Ryoko if you should need anything," with that Ryoko left Buffy to change into her CK bikini.

The sun was warm on Buffy's back as she laid in the white and baby blue reclining beach chair.
'This is relaxing,' thought Buffy rotating in her chair to put on her sun glasses.
"Buffy!" exclaim3d a familiar female voice causing Buffy to look to her side.
Standing next to her stood a red headed girl about her height. Behind her stood a blond with a shy smile, a brown headed gangly looking boy a bit taller then the girls, and next to him stood the most handsomest boy Buffy had ever seen. Taking off her sun glasses she sat up, and smiled when she recognized the red head and blond.
"Willow, Tara, hi," Buffy greeted the girls. "Xander, Angelus is that you?" she asked looking at the two young men.
"It's them all right," answered Willow as everyone took a seat next to Buffy.
"Wow, you guys have changed, complemented Buffy feeling her cheeks get warm from Angelus's welcoming smile. "How have you been these last seven years?" she started deciding that maybe this summer wasn't going to be so bad after all, especially if Angelus was going to be around all summer. Hopefully, he didn't have a girlfriend, but from what Buffy remembered and what she saw in front of her Angelus had to have a girlfriend! It would surprise her if he didn't.
"Nothing much," spoke Xander trying to keep him drool from falling. The little girl he had once known had grown into a golden beauty.
"Graduation, planning on college," listed Tara elbowing Xander when she noticed where he was staring.
"Ow," cried Xander rubbing his chest.
"How about you, Buffy?" asked Angelus ignoring Xander's sour look he shot Tara. Xander wasn't the only one who noticed the change in Buffy. Last he had seen her, she was a dangly little girl, and now she was this goddess who he planned on getting to know all over again. Maybe over dinner, but he would ask her when she was more settled in.
"Doing the college thing too," declared Buffy smiling at Angel. "I got into UCLA so I thought I study chorography. Where are you guys going?"
"I am going to the University of Nebraska-Lincoln for computer engineering," delivered Tara," Xander is heading to Creighton in Omaha, Willow is going to Oxford in Eland for business, and Angelus here is undecided whether he is going to Yale or UCLA to be a lawyer," she finished taking a breath as she pulled her blond hair out of the clip.
"You might go to UCLA?" smiled Buffy placing her sun glasse4s on top of her head.
"Yeah," responded Angelus sweetly making Buffy's heart melt," and someone I know will be there," he extended. His decision was suddenly leaning more towards UCLA.
"So, Buffy, we're going to this club tonight called 'Sun Down," invited Willow, snapping Buffy and Angelus attention away from one another," want to come?"
