"Buffy? Are you here?" Dawn called as she entered the house. After a couple of seconds of silence a voice answered back, " No, she's out working." Little after the voice had stopped Xander walked in. "Oh. I was wondering if my friend could come over to study?" the girl asked with huge puppy eyes.

"Sure knock your selves out."

"I hope you didn't mean that literally." A boy said as he walked in. "Hi I'm Des." He said putting out his hand.

"Um, hi." Xander replied shaking it. "Dawn could you come over here?" he motioned at the girl. "When I said yes I assumed that he was a she!" He whispered.

"Oh, don't worry Xander-" Dawn was interrupted by the boy.

"Yeah you really shouldn't, I'm not gonna make out with her, after all I am gay." He said.

"You are?" Xander said in disbelief.

"Yes."

"Are you sure?" He kept trying to confirm.

"Well unless girls have-"

"Okay I believe you." Xander interrupted ushering them into the living room.

"So are you really gay?" Dawn inquied.

"Not far from it." Des replied.

"Your clever."

"Lucky."

"Huh?"

"Well, I heard what he-"

"Xander"

"Xander said and luckily enough thought up of that, other times it takes me a while."

"So Des, what should we study? Geometry? Biology? Lit? Social Studies?"

"Bio."

"OK..." Dawn muttered as she took out the big Biology book. On it's front cover was a picture of two elephants on the Savannah. "Ok...Prokaryotes are?"

"Singled celled organisms with no nucleus." He replied instinctively.

"Ack! It's 9:30 I was supposed to be home a whiiiiile ago!" Des panicked as he grabbed his books shoving them into his back pack whilst munching on some popcorn Xander had left there earlier. "Well by Dawn-ugh!" He said as he opened the door to leave only to bump into Buffy.

"What are you doing here?" The blonde asked confused.

"Studying, can't talk now, later!" Des rambled as he sped walked out the door.

"Ok, so who's he?" Buffy asked semi-glaring at Dawn.

"Des, friend from school." She answered. "Oh! He forgot his math homework!" Dawn exclaimed as she picked up the crumpled paper with what seemed to be completely, and utterly, wrongly done. "Buffy, I'll be back in a second gotta give this to Des." She said as she scurried out the door.

"Des! Des! Des!" She yelled at the boy, who was walking obliviously , trying to arrange the stuff neatly in his back pack.

"Yeah, Dawn, wait a sec." He replied still focused on the back pack. " Now that to the left, this down a bit, the to the other-uuuf!" He said as he walked into a guy. He was about to apologize when the guy cut him off.

"This is the firs time my lunch has come to me."
