When Buffy wakes up she smiles then frowns at what has happened. She almost
forgot why she had been so upset. Her mum's funeral needed to be arranged,
she needed to run the gallery or at least find someone to run it, but she
also needed to find out what is going to happen to her.
Giles sounded so optimistic last night but what was he going to do, adopt her for a year, not going to happen. She sighed and slowly got up and went to his kitchen and went into the cupboard to get her first coffee for the morning.
She sighs as she sees it is only 5 O'clock. She gets up and tries to smother her clothes into something resembling normal and quickly wrote Giles a note and set off to her house.
She stands under the hottest spray of water and lets it cascade around her while she tries to think. Everything is so chaotic right now, not how she imagined her life was going to be. Spike, William was so different, he looked at her last night like she was human and yet he had looked at her for nearly five years like she was a freak. He had teased her and tripped her and embarrassed her all to fit in with the popular group. Could she forget that so easily just because he had treated her like a human being last night?
She turned off the taps and went over to her mirror and stared at her reflection. Her eyes were red and puffed up from all the crying yesterday but she still looked like her. She rubbed her eyes and realised she hadn't put her glasses on since school 2 days ago. She found that she didn't need them anymore not since she became the slayer but she wore them to hide.
She often wondered what would it have been like if she hadn't lost her confidence at 13, would she have been popular, would she have still been teased, would she at least have one friend? She shook her head and pulled her clothes on and went to answer the doorbell that was ringing.
Upon opening the door she regretted it almost immediately. Standing behind the door was *cringe* her father.
