Buffy fixed her clothes as her and Will walked out of the room. She looked at him with a smile on her face and he leaned down to kiss her forehead, "That was fun pet."

"That it was. I feel kinda . . . Well, Will, we just did it in-"

"There you are Buffy, I was starting to think William had forgotten his way around," Angel said, walking up to the two.

"I think he knows his way around just fine," Buffy said.

"Dinner's ready. Why don't you follow me into the dining room? Will, your mom wanted to talk to you in the kitchen. I think it was important," Angel said as he took Buffy by the waist and led her to another room.

Will scowled at Angel before walking off towards the kitchen.

"Buffy, I'm so glad you could come," Glory said. "Its so nice to see William with a girl again. I just hope it doesn't turn out like that last one."

"Last one?" Buffy asked, confused.

"Nothing pet, just eat."

"But I want to know," Buffy said.

"Fine. Me and Angelus here fought over this girl and in the end she didn't want neither of us," Will said. " 'S over now though. Nothing to worry bout."

"Oh," Buffy said quietly.

"So Buffy, how are you enjoying your summer here in Edmonton? Must be quite a change from . . . Where did you come from?" Angel's father asked.

"Sunnydale. It's a small town in California. I love Edmonton, it's so beautiful. I come here every summer and stay at this one cottage, its nice. But this summer beats all the others."

"Why's that?"

"Cause I met Will," Buffy said, taking his hand.

"How cute. Don't they remind you of us when we were younger?" Glory asked.

"Why yes, they do."

Angel looked at Will with evil eyes. He should be holding Buffy's hand. He should be making his parents happy, not William. Not him.

"Buffy works at our salon, she's a great hair cutter," Becky said.

"Well isn't that nice. I'm sure you are."

Buffy could feel a wave of awkward silence at the table and felt a little out of place. Placing her napkin on her plate, she pushed back her chair and stood up, "I should be going. My mom wants me home a little early tonight, family thing."

"It was nice meeting you," Glory said.

"You too, both of you. Bye," she said, walking out of the room.

Will jogged after her, "Buffy wait, I'll drive you."

"I'll get a cab. You stay with your family."

He laughed. "Never liked my family much."

Buffy smiled, "Fine, I suppose you can drive me. But I really do have to get home. No distractions you hear?"

"Yeah, I hear."

Will pulled up to the cottage. He looked over at Buffy who was unbuckling her seatbelt. She let it fly back over her shoulder and turned to catch Will's eyes, "I'll call you tomorrow, k?"

"Okay luv," Will said, leaning over to kiss her gently. "Tomorrow."

"See you," Buffy said, opening the car door and jumping out.

Will waited until Buffy was safely inside before putting the car in reverse and driving off into the darkness.
