When Buffy Summers arrived in Sunnydale, she hoped that she would be able to survive. Her aunt, younger sister, and her moved there from L.A., and that's all she would tell anyone that asked. She didn't talk to many people when she first moved there that summer, but school was about to start so she was gonna have to talk to people eventually.
That morning Buffy rose from her bed with another night of haunted dreams and restless sleep. She stepped into the shower, hoping to wash away the night from her thoughts, no such luck. While Buffy was putting on a mid-thigh lavender skirt with a white tank and sweater, her aunt Jenny called to her, "Buffy come eat some breakfast before you go to school."
"Yeah, ok Jenny. I'll be down in a second." She yelled back. Grabbing her white strappy heels as she went, Buffy headed down to the kitchen.
When she got there a plate with toast and eggs and orange juice sat waiting for her at the counter. As she sat down Jenny was about to ask how she slept, but thought better of it. Knowing full well what the answer would be and the look in her niece's eyes would be too much. Buffy sat down and only ate a little bit of toast, took a gulp of juice before she left. "Don't wanna be late. Thanks for breakfast. I'll be back after school."
As she dashed off, passing Dawnie on her way, Jenny called after her, "Ok, have a good day." With a frown, she got Dawn ready for school, and stared after the retreating back of her niece.

Buffy walked to school by herself, not really wanting to get there and face all those inquiring eyes, and guys. Slowly but surely, Buffy approached Sunnydale High and prepared herself. She took a deep breath and said quietly to herself, "Ok. You can do this Summers. It's just high school. No big deal."

Inside the school, Buffy clutched her schedule and looked around totally lost and bewildered. She searched the sea of students for a friendly face she could ask directions from, preferably a girl. Then she saw a cute little red head standing by some lockers, and made her way towards the girl.
Willow was waiting by her locker for her boyfriends Oz when a petite blond approached her. Willow smiled when she saw her coming. She had heard from her best friends Xander that there was a new girl in their senior class.
When Buffy got there she smiled and said, "Hi. I'm Buffy. I'm kinda new here, could you point me in the direction of my first class?"
Willow giggled a little and said, "Yeah sure. Here let me see your schedule." Buffy handed the piece of paper over and let out a sigh of relief.
"Thanx so much. I'm a little nervous." Buffy said.
"No problem, well it looks like you've got first period Bio with me. I'll take you there myself. Oh and my name's Willow Rosenburg." Willow smiled and said.
Buffy smiled and followed Willow to their class. Willow left Buffy to talk to Mrs. Parton, their teacher. The final bell rang, and the rest of the class filed in and took their seats and quieted down so Mrs. Parton could address the class, " Class we have a new student as you've probably already heard. This is Buffy Summers." Buffy just stood there looking back at the rest of the class. "Why don't you go sit in between Riley and Willow." Buffy nodded and went and sat down between the two.
That's when Riley leaned over and said, "Hey baby. How you doin?"
Buffy responded by leaning away from him and saying, "Fine thanks."
Willow watched Riley with disgust. The guy was a prick and an asshole, who tried to nail every girl in the school.
The rest of the class went off without a hitch, except for Riley trying to hit on Buffy the entire time. As soon as the bell rung, Buffy was out of there. Then she remembered that she didn't know where her next class was, so she tried to find Willow again. Instead Riley cornered her. As he approached, Buffy tried to walk backwards, but stopped because she had run in to the wall. Riley put his hand on the wall over her head and leaned over her and said, " Hey baby. I'm glad I caught you. What do ya say to a date Friday night." As he said this he put his free hand on her hip.
"How bout not. And take your nasty hands off me." She replied snidely.
Riley tightened his grip on her hip and smiled at her, " What are you gonna do. Hit me?"
From a distance Willow and her group of friends consisting of Angel, Xander, Anya, Fred, Gunn, Oz, Spike, and Faith, watched this whole thing happen. "I can't believe it. Look at that scumbag; he was hitting on her all through Bio too. Poor Buffy."
Said Willow, but before she could pity her, she saw Buffy grab Riley's thumb on her hip with her right hand and wrench it back. Riley yelped and tried to jump back, but Buffy had taken advantage of the situation, and with her hand to his throat turned him around so he was back against the wall.
The whole hallway heard as Buffy yelled at Riley, "I said get your hands off me you Bastard. And if you ever touch me again I will put you in the hospital. Got it?!" and with that Buffy turned and walked toward Willow her gang.
When Buffy got to where Willow was standing Willow said, "Oh my God Buffy!! That was totally awesome. No one has ever even raised their voice to Riley before. I can't believe you just did that!!"
"Yeah, I bet I'll have a new nickname very soon. Oh well." Said Buffy with a smile. "So are these your friends?" she said.
Willow started when she heard the question and said, " Oh yeah. This is Oz my boyfriend, Xander and his girlfriend Anya, my sister Fred and her boyfriend Gunn, that's Spike and his girlfriend Faith, and this is Xander's brother Angel."
There was a chorus of "Hey"s from everyone, and Buffy said, "Hey. I'm Buffy." Buffy had been trying not to look at the tall dark and handsome guy, Angel. After Willow's introductions Buffy was trying not to look at the totally hot guy standing in close proximity. After a minute Buffy said to Willow, "So, um about that next period."
"Oh right. Let's go." She replied. Before she left Willow gave Oz a quick kiss and was off, with Buffy following along behind her.
Before the group of people was out of sight Buffy stole one last glance at Angel, and said to herself, "Oh boy."
