Part 4
"Sydney. What's wrong?"
"What's wrong? The fact that my teacher was just pashing one of my students is I believe to be classified as a problem."
"Sydney you don't understand."
"Oh don't I, Let me see. Buffy, you suck at English due to the fact you're always absent. So when a new English teacher comes along you figure hey I'll get involved with this gorgeous guy and I'll pass English with no problems."
Buffy looked up at Angel and smiled.
"Well she got one thing right. You are gorgeous.'
"You're such a slut Buffy."
At this point Angel's eyes glowed yellow.
"You dare say that again and I'll have you expelled so fast that you wont know what hit you."
"You do realise that she's only using you."
"Well in that case I've been using him for two and a half years."
"What do you mean?"
"Buffy and I have been dating for the last two and a half years."
"Oh."
"I took this job because I owed a friend a favour. One I'll never be able to pay off."
"Well this is a twist. A I didn't think Slayers were meant to go out with Vampires."
"What did you say?"
Buffy looked at angel then back to Sydney.
"Oh come on I know you're the slayer. All those things your able to do. Your strength, eyesight, advanced healing. I've been following you since I heard about Hemrey. When I knew you were coming here I was so excited. Then you turn up and you're like small and petite, I was really curious. I've seen you save so many people. You're like my hero."
"I'm no hero. I just do what I have to do."
"Whatever. And Angel, you hate sunlight and you like the night. Wont go near anyone wearing a cross plus glowing yellow eyes. Pretty much spells duh."
Angel smiled
"Your smart. But if you've been following Buffy, how come you haven't me?"
"Oh I noticed you once or twice but I didn't realise it was you cause aren't wearing black."
"A problem that is soon to be rectified. Light colours do nothing for my skin."
"You're not going to tell on Angel are you?"
"What. Oh no. I was just a little shocked is all. You two have fun."
"Um Sydney."
"Hmm?"
"What's up? You must have come to see me for a reason?"
"I was just wondering if I could do a sonnet on Friday. You said poems and songs but nothing about sonnets."
"Actually Angel, I was going to ask the same thing."
"Sure. A sonnet is like a poem anyway."
"Cool thanks. Sorry for calling you a slut Buffy."
"It's okay. Snyder practically said the same thing last year. So it's not as if I've never been called that before. Promise me that you wont tell anyone about me and Angel being together."
"I wont. Does Xander, Willow, Cordelia and Oz know?"
"Yeah. They know everything."
"Is that why Xander made that comment about you yesterday Angel?"
"Yes. He's always saying stuff. I ignore and move on."
"Okay bye guys."
"Bye Sydney."
When the door closed buffy sat down on Angel's desk and sighed.
"That was bracing. I can't believe someone would look up to me."
"I can. You are the perfect role model."
"Your bias."
"Yeah but I'm allowed to be. So you're doing a sonnet. Which one?"
"Me to know and you to find out. But I bet the whole class will know were together by the end of it."
"How?"
"By the fact that you will be kissing me."
"Yeah right. What makes you think that that would happen?"
"Lets just call it Slayer intuition."
"Care to make a wager on that?"
"We will."
They looked up to see Xander and everyone smiling at the door.
"I call $10 that you two will be pashing before class is finished."
"I'm with Xander."
"Oz. I didn't know you gambled. Fine I Bet they wont. No one kisses in class."
"Thankyou Willow. It's nice to know that someone trusts me."
"Your welcome Angel."
"Oh what the hell, I'm with Willow."
"Good. So by the end of Friday two of us will be $20 richer while the other two will be $20 poorer."
"Are you guys done?"
They looked up to find Buffy and Angel smiling at them.
"Yeah."
"What do you want?"
"Giles want's to know why you aren't at the library."
"Sorry. Sydney Mytska wanted to ask me a question. I had to answer her."
"Cool. Come on or where dead, figuratively speaking of course."
